Remnant Vaults are ancient structures found on most habitable planets. Entering and activating them is crucial for fully terraforming a world and significantly boosting its Viability. Each vault typically involves navigating a complex series of chambers, solving Remnant decryption puzzles, and engaging Remnant constructs in combat. The puzzles are logic-based, requiring you to match symbols or complete sequences. Successfully activating a vault will purify the planet's atmosphere and unlock new areas. Always be prepared for a boss-like encounter at the end of each vault.

Remnant Puzzle Tips:

  • Look for Patterns: The symbols often follow a logical sequence or mirror image.
  • Use Decryption Keys: If you're stuck, you can use a Remnant Decryption Key (found through exploration or crafting) to bypass a puzzle.
  • Scan Everything: Your scanner can sometimes highlight clues or hidden pathways within the vaults.
  • Prepare for Combat: Vaults are heavily guarded; ensure your gear and powers are optimized.
