Discover how to find and scan Fragments in Warframe. Unlock hidden lore, audiovisual content, and Orbiter decorations by collecting Cephalon, Fish, Glass, and more.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Scan Fragments: Most Fragments can be scanned using the Codex or Synthesis Scanner. This unlocks artwork in the Codex's Universe tab and accompanying lore.
  2. 2
    Interact with Fragments: Some Fragments require direct interaction (default key 'X') to collect.
  3. 3
    Audio Clues: A white noise sound will increase in volume as you get closer to a hidden point on scanned images, revealing an audio transmission with additional lore.
  4. 4
    Orbiter Decoration: Unlocked images can be used as decorations on your Orbiter.
  5. 5
    Fragment Types: Fragments are categorized by their origin or type, such as Cephalon Fragments, Thousand-Year Fish Fragments, Glass Shard Fragments, Encrypted Journal Fragments, Nakak Memory Fragments, Fortuna Fragments, Partnership Fragments, The Tenets, Lost Islands of Duviri Fragments, Albrecht's Notes, Isleweaver Fragments, Somachord Fragments, and Frame Fighter Fragments.
  6. 6
    Cephalon Fragments: These appear as blue data blocks, often hidden in mission rooms. They reveal lore about Factions, Characters, and Planets, and decrypting them unlocks parts of Ordis' past. They are typically found 2-3 per navigable location (excluding Kuva Fortress) and require 3-7 scans. They do not appear in Defense, Interception, or Archwing missions.
  7. 7
    Location-Specific Fragments: Many fragments are tied to specific locations like Earth, Venus, Fortuna, Corpus Gas City, Corpus Ship, Duviri, and Albrecht's Laboratories, each with unique lore and collection methods.
Tips
  • Use loot radar mods to help locate Fragments on your mini-map (Cephalon Fragments appear as blue quadruple diamonds).
  • Listen for the white noise to find the interactive point for audio transmissions.
  • Fragments are released over time, so check for new types and locations.
