Making An Impression

Eos is experiencing seismic activity. Altering the tremors with the survey hammer might allow better irrigation for Prodromos.

Aquisition

Get the mission from Hainly Abrams in Prodromos. She will be marked with an "!" when the mission is available.

Walkthrough

Placing three seismic hammers will make the planet's boss the appear: The Architect.

Place the first seismic hammer

Go to the navpoint and interact with it. Defeat the Remant forces comping up from the ground.

Place the second seismic hammer

When you arrive at the navpoint there is a group of stranggers calling for your attention.

Investigate the strangers at the site

They are exiles from Nexus, and the scout informs you that they are a group belonging to the new and independent nation Advent. They want Ryder to drill for natural gas rather than for water, because the latter will harm their settlement. After finished speaking with the strangers two navpoints appear. Ryder can only do one of those objectives:

• Drill for gas, which might harm the environment on Eos. On the other hand Prodromos can trade gas for water with the Advent.
• Drill for water, which might destroy the Advent settlement.

There are no known consequences in the game for either option so it doesn't matter which one you chose.

After placing the hammer some remnants appear and has to be defeated.

Place the third seismic hammer

The Architect appears.

Take down the Architect

Defeating it is a four phase fight: destroy its three leg conduits and finally the head conduit.

It has devasting wepons so keep moving to avoid getting hit. It spawns remnant forces. When one legs is destroyed it flies away to a location nearby.

Advice: An assault rifle is good for shooting the legs. Keep running (and sprinting) while shooting. The architect's gun and other weapons will not catch up with you.

This is repeated for the second leg.

When the third leg is destroyed the head remains.

Some Cobra RPGs is good to use for the head (you have had some chances to fire at the head in the fights for the legs). Buy them from the merchant in Prodromos (only sells one at a time). Buy 3 -5 to avoid a prolonged fight taking out the head. To fire the RPG: press Tab, select the Cobra, aim at the opened head, and use the usual fire button (left mouse button on PC).

Interface with the Architect

When the Architect is defeated interface with its head. This completes the mission. Then loot the container. In it is a Remnant data core for Task: Remnant Data Cores.

Rewards

530XP, 400 AVP, 10% Eos viability.

Aftermath

You may want to return to Hainly Abrams for some feedback.

The defeated Architect is floating in Eos's atmosphere: "Architect Husk: Eos". It can be looted for from Tempest using the Galaxy Map (50 Remnant research data).
