Discover how to find and scan Fragments in Warframe to unlock hidden lore, artwork, and audio transmissions that flesh out the Origin System's history.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Scan Fragments: Use your Codex or Synthesis Scanner on glowing blue data blocks (Cephalon Fragments) or other visual cues to unlock artwork and lore.
  2. 2
    Interact with Fragments: Some Fragments require a simple interaction (default 'X' key) to collect.
  3. 3
    Find Audio Clues: Listen for white noise that intensifies as you get closer to a hidden point on scanned images to unlock audio transmissions.
  4. 4
    Collect Lore: Fragments reveal information about Factions, Characters, Planets, and specific lore like Ordis's Past, The Tenets, and Albrecht's Notes.
  5. 5
    Decorate Orbiter: Unlocked artwork can be used as decorations in your Orbiter.
Tips
  • Fragments can appear on your mini-map as a blue quadruple diamond if you have loot radar mods equipped.
  • Cephalon Fragments typically appear 2-3 per navigable location, but not in Defense, Interception, or Archwing missions.
  • Listen carefully for the audio clue to find the hidden point on scanned images.
