How enriched loot works

Enriched items are loot identified as enriched in their item descriptions. Turned Soldiers always drop enriched loot, while Burned Out Operatives in Isolated Raids can also carry it.

Successfully extract an enriched item when its description indicates a blueprint unlock. Enriched items now fill this extraction role instead of the removed Found in Raid status.

02

Keep, extract, or refine

  • Check an enriched item's description to see whether extracting it will unlock a blueprint.
  • Extract newly acquired enriched gear before taking it into another raid if you want its extraction-based blueprint unlock, because raid re-entry removes its enriched status.
  • When considering refining, compare the item's volume and rarity because both determine how many chronotraces the enriched item awards.
