Unlocking Lost Ark side quest
- The described quest can be activated by talking to Mann, who can be found in Presence Chamber in Xion, which is the same location where you've met Orcal during the main story.
- Check the Xion map and after an exclamation mark appears, return to the Presence Chamber during free exploration.
How to enter the Ark?

- The entrance to the Ark is at the northern end of the Xion map - it is shown in the picture above. The door requires a passcode to enter, but you cannot freely input the combination. Next to the locked entrance there is a datapad containing a note - this is a tip regarding the Puzzle System connected to the door.
How to find 6 pieces of the puzzle?
- Your task now is to find 6 terminals in various parts of Xion. You can reach them up them in any order. Interacting with any of them will display a symbol, and you need to repeat this step 6 times to get the complete passcode.
- The first terminal is in the northern part of Xion, near the entrance to the Ark. It will display the symbol 0.
- The second terminal is in the central part of Xion, near the telephone booth and the stairs. It will display the symbol u.
- The third terminal is in an alley in the eastern part of Xion, north of the Bulletin Board. It will display the symbol k.
- The fourth terminal is in the western part of Xion, near the Sisters' Junk shop. It will display the symbol E.
- The fifth terminal is in an alley in southwestern Xion. It will display the symbol a.
- The last , sixth terminal is in the north-western part of the Ark, near the tables. It will display the symbol r.
What is the combination to solve the Ark's puzzle?
- Once you got all 6 symbols, return to the entrance to the Ark. After interacting with the console, display the tip (Triangle), and a map showing revealed terminals and symbols provided by them will appear.
- The solution to the puzzle are symbols read when the Xion's map is rotated by 90 degrees - the correct passcode is 0ukaEr (screenshot above).
Examining the Ark
- Once inside the Ark, you need to examine 4 bodies - each has a unique note on it.
- There is also an interactive console from the picture on the lower level of the safehouse - check it out at the end.
Escaping the Ark
- The alarm will go off and the entire location will go into lockdown. After hearing EVE's comment destroy 2 consoles in the corridor next to the console - you can use melee weapons for this. This will unlock the pathways.
- The elevator in the Ark is also locked by default. The solution to this problem is to destroy the third console (screenshot). Only then go to the elevator.
- On the way to the exit, you will encounter the last fourth console to destroy. This will unlock the exit from the Ark.
- For the purpose of completing the quest, visit Mann once again in the Presence Chamber
