Discover how to find and scan various Fragments in Warframe using your Codex and Synthesis Scanners to unlock hidden lore, artwork, and audio transmissions about the Origin System.
Walkthrough
- 1Mechanics: Use the Codex or Synthesis Scanner on most Fragments. This unlocks artwork in the Codex's 'Universe' tab, which can be used as Orbiter decorations and has accompanying lore. A hidden point on the artwork unlocks an audio transmission with more lore, indicated by increasing white noise as you get closer. Some Fragments require simple interaction (default X) to collect.
- 2Cephalon Fragments: These appear as hovering blue data blocks, often hidden in mission rooms. They are found on most planets, moons, and locations (including the Void and Deimos), with 2-3 fragments per location, each requiring 3-7 scans. They appear on the mini-map with loot radar mods as a blue quadruple diamond. They do not spawn in Defense, Interception, or Archwing missions. Scanning them unlocks lore about the Origin System's Factions, Characters, and Planets, and decrypting them reveals Ordis' Past, narrated by Ordis.
Tips
- Fragments provide valuable lore that fleshes out the Warframe universe.
