In 2026, the cosmos still spins, Trailblaze Power still evaporates, and somewhere on Herta Space Station, a Wubbaboo is laughing at a researcher. The Signs of Fragmentum quest in Honkai: Star Rail remains one of the most delightfully annoying errands in the game. It asks the Trailblazer to find invisible beacons, fight Antimatter Legion goons, and pretend to understand Asta's security problems. A third-person observer might call it a scavenger hunt designed by a sadist. The game calls it content. 🐟
How to Unlock Signs of Fragmentum
The unlock conditions have not changed, because the universe loves tradition. To start the Companion Mission, the Trailblazer must reach Trailblaze Level 22 and finish Arlan's Companion Mission. Once level 22 hits, a message from the group called Madam Herta's Heritor Club arrives, whispering a rumor about Asta. Himeko then asks for help from her friend on the Space Station. After some dialogue and a guard, the Trailblazer enters a domain, finds three backup batteries marked in purple, defeats enemies, and meets Pamela. That is the Companion Mission. After finishing it, an Adventure Mission with the same name appears in the Storage Zone. A specific icon marks the NPC who starts it. Easy? No. Necessary? Apparently.
Beacon Locations for Difficulty One
The first set of beacons sends the Trailblazer to the first floor of the Storage Zone. Four Wubbaboos are hiding, and none of them are polite enough to glow on the map.
| Number | Location |
|---|---|
| 1 | Slightly to the right of spawn. The researcher is staring right at it, which is either helpful or embarrassing. |
| 2 | Follow the path right, enter the door on the left, defeat the Antimatter Legion monster, then look at the ceiling of the door. |
| 3 | In the same room, the path splits. Go left to the Curios room, defeat enemies, and check behind a Curios pillar on the left. |
| 4 | Return to the split. On the other path, an enemy is staring at the last Wubbaboo in the corner. Grab it without disturbing the enemy. |
Beacon Locations for Difficulty Two
Difficulty Two takes place on the same floor, but the left half of the area. Five Wubbaboos now, because four was clearly too merciful.
| Number | Location |
|---|---|
| 1 | Spawn on the right side of the middle circle. Cross to the other side, and the beacon floats in the middle, in front of the main office. |
| 2 | Inside the main office, beside a small plant at one edge. Very domestic. Very hidden. |
| 3 | A door in the office wall leads to a split. Go right to a puzzle. Stand on the first glowing tile, interact, go left to the edge, go front once, go all the way right, enter the teleport. The beacon waits at the left end of the room. |
| 4 | Back at the split, take the other side. The path splits again. Go right into a small room and look at the ceiling of the door from inside. |
| 5 | Follow the other path until Arlan's created path from the main quest. The beacon sits at the bottom left where the path ends. |
Beacon Locations for Difficulty Three
The final difficulty moves to the second floor of the Storage Zone. Five beacons, two platform puzzles, and one Blaze Out of Space that definitely woke up on the wrong side of the cosmos.
| Number | Location |
|---|---|
| 1 | From the middle circle spawn, look top right. The beacon floats between the center and the platform. |
| 2 | Open the map. Take the left path out of the circle. The beacon is below this path on the other side. Defeat Blaze Out of Space above it first. |
| 3 | Near the boss, a platform puzzle leads to the third beacon. The camera can grab it early, but the challenge is real. Solve with: Front - Left - Front - Front - Left - Front. |
| 4 | The path to the other side of the middle circle splits. Take the right path with the white platform. In the first room, defeat the golden enemy. Skip the Ice enemy. Enter the little door on the right, defeat another golden enemy, keep going down, and check the ceiling at the end. |
| 5 | Head back out and solve the platform puzzle: Left - Front - Front - Right - Back - Right. Enter the room on the other side. The beacon is on the right. |
Final Thoughts From 2026
In 2026, the Signs of Fragmentum mission is still a rite of passage. It is not difficult, exactly. It is tedious in a way that builds character, or at least builds a deep suspicion of Wubbaboos. The Trailblazer should bring patience, AoE damage, and maybe a snack. The rewards are worth it, and the Wubbaboos are not. If a Wubbaboo is on the ceiling, it is not a bug. It is a feature. Happy hunting. 🎯
