Vaults are unique mechanics in that they can give rewards upon finding, activating, and completing a mini-game. T
They are the only mini-game as of launch found within The First Descendant. They can be easily located by observing your surroundings and looking for Secret Markers, they appear as holograms that dip to the ground as you approach them. Mind some Secret markers indicate there is either a Vault, Arche Echo, or Journal nearby.
Locating a Vault[]
Once one of these unique markers can be found, you will need to spin around activating your Eclive, once you are facing the correct direction you will hear a unique feedback sound. The louder it is the closer you are, as the origin of this sound is exactly where the Vault will be hidden.
Basic Vaults require a Code-Analyzer to open, these are one-time use consumable materials that can be obtained from Enemy drops and missions via a drop-table. While Precision Vaults require Precision Code-Analyzers, and Ultra Vaults require Ultra-Precision Code-Analyzers.
Mini-Game[]
The Mini-Game is simple to complete, you need to Left or Right click depending on the center icon, specifically when the dial is within the highlighted zone of the circle. When the bar on the bottom runs out, the vault will close and you will receive no rewards, consuming a Code-Analyzer. Depending on the Vault Difficulty, there will be multiple steps you must pass before you can access the vault.
It is possible to be nearby the Vault to reap one reward from the vault as another player opens the vault.
