All Collectibles Guide
By Fugoha
Welcome to the "All Collectibles" Guide!

This guide will help you get two achievements: "Scavenger Star" and "Data Collector". I know there are many guides out there, but most of them are YouTube videos. I don’t enjoy watching videos for guides, and maybe you feel the same.

That’s why I created this written guide with screenshots to make it easy to follow. I hope it helps you enjoy collecting everything without any stress.

Let’s get started and have fun! 😊

Episode 1
Artemis Diagnostics
Once you're done speaking to Khan at the cockpit, examine the Command Console. When you're finished, you'll be able to download the Artemis diagnostics from the panel to your left, opposite the gunnery station.


Airlock Prep Log
When you climb the ladder down to the crew deck on board the Artemis, the Airlock Log is immediately to your right.


Refrigerator
Immediately after speaking to Arlen and Rayen for the first time, turn around and inspect the fridge to access its log.

WARNING
Be sure to stop by the Med Bay and talk to Virgil before you leave the Crew Deck. You'll get a quest to recover a focus crystal (see below).


Drive Analysis
In the first room of the Urshanabi, walk to the far side of the floating heads, either by going around or straight through. You can scan the ship's computer from the wall panel there.


Quantum Processor
When you leave the room with the heads, walk straight ahead. The Quantum Processor can be collected on the right, just before you exit to the next corridor.


Fabricator
Cut the panel from the wall during the zero-g movement tutorial. The glowing green cables will lead you straight to it.


Water Recycler
Float directly across from the green beacon to the upper half of the Urshanabi's officer deck. You'll find the Water Recycler just over the first ledge.

Machine
From the green beacon, go to the right side. You'll see this debris; the one has a collectible machine in the center of a square panel.


Focus Crystal
If you accepted the quest from Virgil to find a new laser crystal, start at the green beacon and look for a red beacon above and behind you, at the top of the largest section of wreckage. Open the panel at the end of the corridor to get the crystal inside.


Fuel
Float around to the left side from the green beacon and look for a large red tank. Remove the panel on the side of the tank to collect the fuel, then listen for a message from Maya.


Hidden Panel
Standing in front of the door with the fingerprint scanner leading to the officers' quarters, go to the right. A panel on the ceiling can be cut away with your blowtorch if you float up to it, revealing a hidden piece of salvage.


Temperature Log
Standing in front of the door with the fingerprint scanner leading to the officers' quarters, go to the left and analyze the panel in the hallway.


Cigar
Inside the officers' quarters, enter the right-hand room and open the drawer. When the cigar floats upward, walk along the wall or float over to it and collect it. You will give it to Khan on Episode two.

Congratulation, you got all of them. You will get the achievements when the credit rolls.
Episode 2
Threat Assessment
When you first enter the Ship Graveyard, float to the left toward the opening in the hull of the Crowley (the yellow beacon). As you approach, look on the large flat surface to your right for a scannable log.


Self-Propelled Rounds
From the Med Bay on the Crowley, you can enter a shaft that leads between decks. There's an ammo case that you can pick up on the shaft wall at the Med Bay level.


Mushroom Powder
In the Crowley's mess hall, look for a soccer photo on the wall. Facing away from the photo, check the cupboards in the hall to the left to get some mushrooms for Virgil. When you return to the Artemis, give the Mushroom Powder to Virgil in the Mess Hall kitchen to increase his opinion of you.


Guidance System
Enter the mess hall by the ladder and walk straight ahead. Float across the gap to collect the Guidance System on the far side.


MCRN Tool
Take the shaft down from the mess hall to reach the Server Room. Take a right as you enter, and you'll see a collectible tool against the wall.


Acceleration Drugs
Enter the Hiram Grant from the leftmost breach and take a left. You'll see a door to the ship's Med Bay. Float to the ceiling immediately after entering the room and collect the salvage there.


Mag Boots
After gave the second Reaction Mass to Arlen, float out into space to follow the mission. You will find the mag boots on the way.


Toxiperidone
The drugs to treat Arlen's pixie dust withdrawal can be found near the mag boots. Stand next to the beacon on the panel where you found the boots, and look for a blue container next to you. Underneath the panel attached to the container is a medkit that you can search. Be sure to give Arlen the pills when you return to the Artemis - you can find him the Mess Hall.


Data Cube Hacker
On the bottom deck of the Le Guin (the Engine Room), check the area behind the shaft before collecting the reaction mass. You'll find this piece of salvage on the wall. When you return to the Artemis, you can use it to hack the computer in Virgil's room adjacent to Med Bay and learn more about his history. Doing so unlocks more dialogue options with him if you speak to him in the kitchen.

WARNING
You'll automatically travel to the next area, the wreck of the Manitoba, after collecting the third Reaction Mass. Be sure to collect everything (above) in the ship graveyard before you leave!


Solenoid Analysis
On the Manitoba, you'll be attacked by a pair of pirates. After the quick-time event, proceed down the hall past the first drone. A room to the left before the next set of drones contains a terminal that you can scan.


Ship Registration
When you return to the Artemis, you'll be able to enter the Captain's Quarters for the first time. Check the terminal in the bedroom for information about the ship.


Comms Log
Enter the Artemis Crew Quarters and take a left. You'll find the Comms Log just outside Rayen's room.


Water Storage Log
Before speaking to Maya in the Cargo Bay, walk to the wall directly across from her and check the terminal there.

Congratulation, you got all of them. You will get the achievements when the credit rolls.
Episode 3
Environmental Scanners
Immediately after Maya turns on the power in the first section of the station, scan the monitor to the right of her.


Temperature Sensor
Immediately after opening the first airlock, check the ceiling panel to your right. You'll find the Temperature Sensor there, behind a panel that can be cut away with the blowtorch.


Mining Net
When you enter the mess hall after passing through the first airlock, check the left side of the room. The Mining Net is floating near a cupboard within easy reach.


Pitons
In the corridor just past the classrooms, you'll find a room on the right where stasis coffins were left under construction. There's a nook in the corner where you can find the Pitons.


Computer
After the classrooms, enter the room on the left side of the corridor and check both computers. One has a simple text log, while the other can be scanned for a Mission Log.


Air Pressure Monitor
When you enter the room after passing through the second airlock, check the ceiling in the corner. You'll find a panel that you can remove with your blowtorch; the Air Pressure Monitor is inside.


Power Converter
Once the second power station is turned on, go to the door that remained closed. There's a Power Converter on the ceiling next to it that you can collect.


Microgravity Supplements
Before leaving the medical wing through the vertical shaft, check the room on the left. You'll find Microgravity Supplements on a shelf directly in front of you.


Mining Charges
When you reach the Cathedral, check the near left corner of the bottom floor. There's a shipping container that you can enter, where you'll find Mining Charges on a table to the right.


Circuitboard
In the third power control center, look on the panels near the ceiling on the far side of the room to find the Circuitboard. It's best to get it before you turn the power on, but you can return for it after the fight in the next room.


Death Records
After the fight in the crypt, float to the bottom of the chamber. Check the outside of the circular area to scan for the station's log.


Stasis Monitor
In the Children's Tomb, look for an unfinished section on the right. You can float through and scan a screen on your left side.

Congratulation, you got all of them plus "Scavenger Star"! You will get the achievements when the credit rolls.
Episode 4
Transmission Log
In the Cassiopeia Cathedral (the room where you start), go to the rear left of the room. There are some computer banks along the wall; the leftmost one contains daily broadcast logs for the Collective.


Equipment Registry
Inside the mining tunnels, take the side tunnel shortly after you enter. It's on the right if you stay upside-down in zero gravity, or on the left if you flip around and move along the floor. You'll come to a dead-end with a cart that you can scan.


Mineral Yield
At the first lever that opens a door, look behind you and look up. There will be a panel above that you can scan. It might be obscured by a floating container, so check the wall carefully.


Tunnel Analysis
In the room with the sentry drones, make your way to the corner to the right of the exit door. You'll see a floating pad near the bottom of the chamber that you can scan. Be sure to collect it before landing, or else you'll trigger a cutscene and the door will lock behind you. If this happens, you'll need to start the Chapter over if you want to find the Tunnel Analysis or any other logs that you missed.

Congratulation, you got all of them. You will get the achievements when the credit rolls.
Episode 5
Damage Report
You will go down the ladder and walk straight after Khan. The Damage Report will be seen there.


Airlock Door Sensor
You will open the security gate and go down the ladder. The final collection Airlock Door Sensor is located inside the Airlock Prep, on the left.


Congratulation on collecting everything and unlocking all the achievements, plus "Data Collector"—you did it! 🎉 You will get the achievements when the credit rolls.

@Kron Omg, you are right. How could I miss them?! I got "Data Collector" on the end of the episode 4 so I assumed there weren't any logs in Ep5. It's strange I got it earlier because I clicked on the new game, a fresh start... Thank you so much for a notice and I fixed my Guide :steamhappy:

Uh ,no. There are two logs there and there is an achievement for collecting both of them called "Data Archivist".

@Kron You don't need episode 5 because there are nothing, you will get all the achievements on the end of episode 4.
Kron 14 Feb @ 5:53am
