Collapsed Star Fragment

epic Flagship Artifact

A shard of compressed stellar matter — not quite a neutron star, not quite anything else. It warps the space immediately around it slightly enough to be imperceptible to crew but enough to confuse incoming targeting solutions.

Passive bonuses

  • +8% Fleet Evasion
  • +12% Sensor Jamming Resistance

Set bonus3 pieces

+18% Expedition Discovery Chance

Void Attunement: The void reveals its secrets to those who carry its remnants.

How to get

Void Rift Expedition, Mythic Boss

Helio Compass

rare Flagship Artifact

Navigation instrument of the Solaris Compact that always points toward the nearest star with harvestable energy potential. Its inner rings still rotate on their own, calibrating continuously without any visible power source.

Passive bonuses

  • +10% Expedition Speed
  • +10% Cooldown Reduction Scan

Set bonus2 pieces

+15% Solar Energy Yield

Solar Inheritance: The legacy of the Solaris Compact amplifies stellar energy collection.

Which Artifact Should You Equip?

Collapsed Star Fragment is the higher-rarity relic, so it carries the stronger ceiling for the Flagship slot and is the long-term target. That said, if you are already running the Void Remnants set, the set bonus can outweigh raw rarity — favour the artifact that completes a set you already own.
