Prismatic Fragment Locations

In The Final Shape, Guardians unlock the Prismatic subclass and along with it, 21 Prismatic Fragments. Five of these Fragments are unlocked with the subclass and three more are rewarded during the campaign and require no extra steps to unlock. The remaining 13 need to be located in the wild on the Pale Heart, locked inside Prismatic chests. This guide shows you how to find these chests and how you can unlock each one!

The first of the Prismatic Fragments is found in the fifth story mission, The Ascent. In the early stages of the mission, you find yourself climbing up a snowy mountain. About halfway up the mountain, there is a fuselage of a wrecked plane. Jump down and go to the right to a lower portion of the hull to locate the chest containing Facet of Bravery.

During the sixth story mission Dissent, you fight a Scorn enemy known as the Pillar of Devotion. Once you have defeated the boss, the staircases and bridges in between the more stable locations start to collapse underneath you. Your task is simple: escape with your life! Before leaving completely, follow your quest marker up and to the right to see a pad with a number of pillars. At the end of this landing behind the last pillar to the left, you should spot a Prismatic Chest with the Facet of Devotion inside.

The last story related Prismatic Fragment is found in the final mission of The Final Shape campaign, Iconoclasm. Near the end of the mission, you climb up the outside of a large building until you spot a large window overlooking the entire map. Turn around to find a room with a sliced Warbeast statue and 2 pathways to continue through the building. From the Warbeast, turn left to find a small room with a closed doorway. To the right of this door is a small hole in the corner of the wall that you can climb up to and clamber through. At the end of this tunnel, a Prismatic chest lights up the darkness, and inside is the Facet of Sacrifice.

The Prismatic chest containing Facet of Solitude is locked and requires you to create Memory: Impassive Darkness to open. Complete corrupted chest events around the Pale Heart to collect Memory Vestige: Darkness and five of these create the Impassive Darkness Memory. Head to the Impasse landing zone and go to the circled area on your map. All the way to the left of this temple area is a ledge you can look over to locate the chest and claim your Prismatic Fragment.

Similar to the Facet of Solitude, Facet of Honor is locked and requires Memory: Divisive Darkness to open. To get this, collect five more Memory Vestige: Darkness. At the Impasse landing zone, head West to the Divide. Climb to the top of the mountain to the location marked on your map. Look over the right edge of the large structure to spot the Prismatic chest below.

To unlock this Fragment, you need to complete the campaign of The Final Shape. Located on The Lost City, Micah-10 offers a string of quests to unlock cysts in the Pale Heart. Enemies in the cysts drop Memory Vestige: Light. Collect 5 vestiges to create Memory: Seclusions of Light. Head to The Seclusion area marked on your map. Spot a waterfall near Zavala's cabin and climb to the top near a fallen tree. Here is the Prismatic chest containing Facet of Dominance.

To unlock this Fragment, you need to complete the campaign of The Final Shape. Return to a cyst to collect 5 more Light Vestiges to create Memory: Refractions of Light. From the Blooming landing zone, head to the marked zone on your map in the Refraction. Once you come to an open area, look up for some ledges and branches. Atop one of the highest branches is a Prismatic chest, and inside is the Facet of Awakening Prismatic Fragment.

To unlock this Fragment, you need to complete the campaign of The Final Shape. For the final time, head to a cyst to collect 5 Memory Vestige: Light. The Memory: Blooming of Light shard takes you to a marked location on your map near the Blooming landing zone. At the roots of a large tree, you should spot a Prismatic chest containing Facet of Generosity.

Land at the Impasse and head towards the Divide until you find a chest that requires the Divided Prismatic Key. Across from this chest is a small room accessible by jumping through the windows. Inside are 2 Fallen energy depots covered in ice, a Scorch Cannon transmit, and a pile of ice. Grab a Scorch Cannon and break all of the ice in the room. Destroying the ice pile drops and Arc charge. Throughout the area near this chest are more ice piles with other charges inside.

There are a total of 7 elemental charges including the one in the room with the depots. Arc charges are worth 2 bars, Solar charges are worth 3 and Void charges are worth 4. Each energy depot needs 10 energy to activate, so deposit the charges accordingly. One engine can hold two Solar and two Arc while the other can hold two Void and one Arc. Once the depots are full, a battle commences. Defeat the final boss and collect the key for the Facet of Command Prismatic chest.

Head towards the Transgression area after landing at the Impasse and stick to the left once you reach a wide open area. You should spot a cave with a Darkness node at the entrance. Shooting this node gives you the Shielded from Darkness buff letting you go deeper into the cave. Follow this cave to the end and you should spot the Prismatic chest, requiring the Transgressive Prismatic Key. Activate the nearby node to start the encounter and spawn in shielded enemies named Souls of Suffering. To remove their shields, walk through the cave to find and destroy Taken eyes, aptly named Eyes of Suffering.

Repeat walking through the cave to kill the Eyes of Suffering until all of the Souls of Suffering are defeated. Back at the chest, activate the node once more to start a short battle. Fight these waves of enemies until you are met by a Tormentor. This Tormentor drops the Transgressive Prismatic Key upon defeat, used to unlock the chest containing Facet of Defiance.

Land at the Lost City and head down towards Micah-10. To their right is a small opening, you can climb down to get to the Outskirts. You want to head back as far as you can while sticking to the right side of the map. Inside an open building is a Prismatic chest that requires the Elevated Prismatic Key. A Weaver spawns in front of this chest and when defeated, a message appears in the activity feed: "First Omen Defeated." Double back on yourself, this time sticking to the left. Another Omen is here along with a group of enemies to destroy. "Second Omen Defeated" appears in the feed.

Double back once more heading left over a series of red platforms to find the third Omen with a group of flying Grim. Once defeated, you should hear a Tormentor spawn and need to head back to where you started. The three Omens are back along side this Tormentor. Kill the Omens again to remove the Tormentor's shield. Defeat the Tormentor and collect the Elevated Prismatic Key to unlock the Prismatic Chest where you found the first Omen. Inside this chest is your new Prismatic Fragment, Facet of Grace.

From the Landing in the Pale Heart, head out and to the left through a cave. Eventually, you reach a large room covered in blue crystals with a Prismatic chest at its center. Behind this chest are three Hive runes that need to be cleansed. On the balcony, you should see a Solar crystal that you need to pick up. When collected, more Hive runes spawn around the room, each corresponding to a brazier behind it. Jumping down from the balcony removes these runes so either keep yourself perched or invite a fireteam member to assist you in spotting the correct runes.

After you deposit 3 Solar crystals into the correct braziers, "It is here" appears in your activity feed, and waves of enemies start to spawn. Killing these enemies spawns two Prismatic shielded minibosses that drop the Refracting Prismatic Key once both are defeated. Use this key to unlock the Prismatic chest containing Facet of Justice.

Your final Prismatic Fragment is found where you first started your adventure in the Pale Heart. From the Lost City, head towards Micah-10 and back to the Outskirts. You are looking for 4 wounded Ghost shells. When you're near them, your Ghost makes an audible ping. Pull out your Ghost, and he looks in the direction of the other wounded Ghost. The first Ghost is found on top of a red banner attached to a building straight across from where you entered the courtyard. Turn around and head to the left past a Daito sign and down some stairs with an orange railing. On top of some boxes is the second wounded Ghost.

Head across the platforms towards a waterfall and enter the door near it. Through these corridors, you should spot an open door and your Ghost chirps. Head out the door and immediately turn back around to spot the third wounded ghost above the door on a small ledge. Out into the green area, you find a large yellow framework. Locate the fourth wounded Ghost just under the large circle near the top. "A Ghost's memory cries out in pain" appears in your activity feed and you can follow the path under the framework to find the last Prismatic chest.

Step into the capture point and hold your ground, defeating waves of enemies until it fills. Once complete, a Subjugator appears along with more enemies. Kill these enemies to lower the Subjugator's shield after the damage thresholds are met on its health bar. The Overgrown Prismatic Key drops from this fallen servant of the Witness. Use it to unlock the final Prismatic chest containing Facet of Mending.
