Discover how to find and scan Fragments in Warframe to unlock hidden lore, artwork, and audio transmissions that flesh out the Origin System's rich backstory.
Walkthrough
- 1Mechanics: Use a Codex or Synthesis Scanner on Fragments to unlock artwork in the Codex's Universe tab. Hover over a hidden point on the artwork to reveal an audio transmission with additional lore. Some Fragments require direct interaction (default X).
- 2Cephalon Fragments: Found in most planets, moons, and locations (except Kuva Fortress). They appear as blue data blocks, often hidden in mission rooms. Loot radar mods will show them as blue quadruple diamonds on the minimap. They reveal lore about Factions, Characters, and Planets, and decrypting them reveals Ordis' Past, narrated by Ordis. These fragments cannot be found in Defense, Interception, or Archwing missions.
- 3Fragment Locations: Each planet/region has specific fragments with required scans, lore, and Ordis transmissions. For example, Earth has fragments related to its abandoned state, mutated wildlife, and Grineer settlements. Venus fragments detail Corpus industrious craft in mountainous regions.
