The Final Shape has introduced a new challenging activity for Guardians to participate in, which offers great rewards for those who are victorious.
Known as the Enigma Protocol, this activity must first be unlocked and this is doable by completing the Encoded Log Quest.
This begins when you start the first week of A Rising Chorus: Act I, where you and Failsafe begin to learn more about the anomaly that landed on Nessus.
How To Get Encoded Log Quest?
Encoded Log may be claimed once you reach quest step 5 of A Rising Chorus: Act 1, which previously had you extracting samples in the earlier steps.
After obtaining a strange specimen, you later return to Failsafe and turn in what you find, which later leads to the Encoded Log Quest being unlocked.
Encoded Log Quest Steps
Step 1: Explore Nessus to find the source of a reported VexNet integration on the Planetoid
You have been informed by hidden agents regarding a lead near the Well of Echoes, which requires you to investigate.
Heading to the Well of Echoes may be done by fast-traveling to The Tangle on Nessus and if you check your map, you will find that it is nearby.
After you have found the entrance, proceed with making your way inside and fight your way past the Vex within so that you can enter the portal at the end.
- Find Disturbance
Step 2: Find and complete the Enigma Protocol activity
Once you have fought your way through enemies and have gone into the portal, you will find a pit where the waypoint is pointing you.
Head into the pit, which is known as “A Hole In The Well” and you will find the Enigma Protocol activity, which you must now complete.
- Complete Enigma Protocol
Encoded Log Quest Rewards
Completing the Encoded Log Quest will unlock the Enigma Protocol activity for you, which happens after your first run and completion.
You may later find the Enigma Protocol activity when viewing the H.E.L.M. destination and may start it there whenever you want.
Summary
The Vex have a lot of secrets and through the Enigma Protocol, you can further investigate what they are hiding.
The Enigma Protocol is one of the toughest challenges there are for players who have just begun The Final Shape as its recommended power level is quite high.
Now that you have unlocked this activity, you may continue to grind it throughout The Final Shape and can begin grinding for Echo Engrams and other loot.
