Finding all the secret rooms in Paramo in PUBG is vital if you want to get the best loot and secure a better chance of winning a game. 

PUBG introduced the secret rooms mechanic back in Vikendi, before expanding upon it for this map, meaning players have alternative methods of acquiring powerful loot. They still have their dangers, so you'll want to be on top of finding them as quickly as possible.

We've covered all the game's secret room locations on Paramo below.

All the Paramo secret rooms have been marked on the map above, totalling at seven places to get some high-tier loot.

Due to the randomness factor of the Paramo map, stemming from the active volcano in the middle and changing landmark locations every time you load in, the secret rooms are not always in the exact same location.

These landmark points are predetermined, so the secret rooms will always appear in seven locations dotted around the island, but only a handful can be accessed in a given match.

They can look like normal buildings, but the locked doors give away that these are the secret rooms, so encountering one should key you in on what's inside.

How to access the secret rooms in Paramo

Gaining access to these secret rooms requires you to find special keycards on the map, but these are completely randomised. This means you'll need to play as normal, just looting and scavenging the various POIs until you come acrss one.

It's also possible to go several matches without ever finding one though, so it really comes down to the luck of the draw for who can access these loot-filled rooms.

A tactic I often employ to make it a little easier is waiting outside of one of the secret rooms for a player with a keycard to come along. You can ambush them outside or wait for them to enter and sneak in behind.

This tactic still relies on another player getting lucky enough to find a key, and for them to come to the specific secret room you are stationed at, but it can be more consistent than just looting and hoping. 

Once you are inside, no matter which method you take, you can claim all the high-quality loot. The loot is randomised of course, but it should consist of some powerful weapons and armour, along with attachments, grenades, health items, and more.

I also recommend locking the secret rooms behind you, both when entering and leaving, so as to keep yourself secure and lock the loot away from others, respectively.
