In the game, the red Crimson Omens™ "could be considered" as COG Tags location indicators or guards.
In any case, a Crimson Omen™ is always in close range of any of the COG Tag,
and sometimes because of the dark or of the distance or of the battle pressure,
it is not easy to see the Omens,
and sometimes moving ahead without caution,
could result in failing it..too late to look for it..door closed, something behind collapsed, cutscene..and goodbye.
Therefore it goes like this...first find the Omen, then look for the Tag.
Here is the Omens locations list (temporarily incomplete).
