The Edge of Fate expansion introduces players to a variety of post-campaign endgame activities, among which the Graviton Through the Ages quest stands out as a top priority for Exotic collectors. Completing this 15-step mission chain unlocks the powerful Graviton Spike Exotic Hand Cannon along with its weapon crafting pattern. Guardians looking to expand their arsenal will find this multi-part quest requires a mix of exploration, puzzle-solving, and timed event completions across Kepler.
How to Unlock and Start the Quest
Before launching into Graviton Through the Ages, players must first finish all main story missions in The Edge of Fate campaign. Once the campaign concludes, head to the Altar of Relativity in the Kepler hub area to pick up the quest prompt. From there, speak with Lodi and The Emeritus to officially begin your search for missing weapon parts.
Locating the Missing Weapon Pieces
The core objective of the quest requires traveling to several zones on Kepler to recover distinct weapon fragments. Guardians will need to defeat Rosetta Sentries to access local terminals and solve environmental puzzles using Matterspark and Relocator mechanics. Tracking these components takes players through the Outer Steppes, the Gorge, and Exile's Accord before finishing in the Department of External Observations.
Collecting Vex Data Fragments
Between finding physical weapon components, players must gather Vex Data Fragments to progress. While general Vex combat yields minor progress, triggering the local Energy Pulse event significantly accelerates the collection process. Defeating high-level Vex during this event produces large clusters of fragments, helping players finish this stage efficiently.
Completing The Sieve and Quest Rewards
After acquiring all weapon components, return to Lodi to receive the final objective: completing The Sieve activity. This planetary event operates on a periodic rotation, requiring players to check the map timer before launching into the battle. Successfully clearing the activity yields the Graviton Spike Exotic Hand Cannon as a chest drop, unlocking dual Arc and Stasis capabilities alongside long-term weapon crafting options.
