Discover how to find and scan Fragments in Warframe to unlock hidden lore, artwork, and audio transmissions that flesh out the game's rich universe.
Walkthrough
- 1Scan Fragments: Most Fragments can be scanned using the Codex Scanner or Synthesis Scanner. This unlocks artwork in the Codex's Universe tab and accompanying lore text.
- 2Find Hidden Points: Within the unlocked artwork, there's a hidden point that, when hovered over with the cursor, reveals a short audio transmission with additional lore. Listen for a white noise clue that gets louder as you get closer.
- 3Interact with Fragments: Some Fragments do not require scanning and can be collected by simply interacting with them (default key 'X').
- 4Fragment Types: Fragments are categorized by their origin and lore focus, including Cephalon, Fish, Glass, Ghoul, Revenant, Solaris United, Partnership, The Tenets, Duviri, Albrecht, Isleweaver, Somachord, and Frame Fighter fragments. Each type offers unique insights into the Warframe universe.
- 5Location and Spawning: Fragments are typically found in rooms during missions. They appear on the mini-map as a blue quadruple diamond if loot radar mods are active. They can spawn once per mission in random locations, with exceptions for certain mission types like Defense and Interception.
- 6Lore Unlocked: Fragments provide lore on various aspects of the Origin System, including Factions, Characters, and Planets. Cephalon Fragments, specifically, reveal lore about Ordis's past.
Tips
- Use loot radar mods to easily spot Fragments on your mini-map.
- Pay attention to audio cues (white noise) to find the hidden interaction points within artwork.
- Explore thoroughly during missions, as Fragments can be well-hidden.
- Different mission types have different fragment spawn behaviors; be aware of which missions are less likely to contain them.
