History of Orientation

Overview

Orientation is a World Quest in The Edge of Fate, unlocked after the story mission Morphology. Orin and Lodi investigate symbols of The Nine across Kepler. One guide advises also finishing the The Gorge Strangelet quest first, to avoid being blocked by barriers. Allow roughly an hour including travel.

Walkthrough

1. Find vestiges I and II in The Stacks of the Outer Steppes.
2. Find V, VI and IX in the Assimilated Easement.
3. Find VII and VIII, split between Curtilage Divide and Augur's Bethel.
4. Find IV at the Aionian Campus (fast travel recommended).
5. Return to the Orrery and bind your connections to it.

The vestige of III is absent; the reason is not explained in the quest.

Rewards

Sources differ in wording: one lists Legendary gear and a Fated Cipher; another lists 3x Fated Cipher plus an AION Renewal armor piece or a Kepler weapon.

Trivia

Lodi learns the Nine split into inner and outer factions and accepts the role of emissary between them, despite Orin's warnings.
