How To Complete Specimen ID: NES001 in Destiny 2: Echoes

After helping Failsafe out with figuring out what’s goin on with the Vex, she needs your help one more time. Now, her goal is to figure out exactly why the Vex and Nessus are changing, and collecting information on Specimen ID: NES001 might just be the thing that Failsafe needs. Let’s take a look at how to complete the Specimen ID: NES001 quest, unlock Munitions Deployment Apparatus, and Primary Echo Engram Focusing in Destiny 2: The Final Shape.

Step 1

Failsafe has fabricated a Piston Hammer for you from a mix of old Red Legion mining tech and new Vex assimilation patterns. The hammer is capable of uncovering Vex radiolite!

• Deposit collected samples at Failsafe’s Radiolite Bay in the H.E.L.M.

Step 2

Failsafe learned a great deal from your data collection and has some additional findings to share with you.

• Failsafe has fabricated a Prison Hammer for you. Striking Vex Assimilation Pistons with it will drive nearby veins of Radiolite to the surface for sampling.
  • Visit Failsafe in the H.E.L.M.

Step 3

Failsafe has asked you to extract additional Vex data to further her research. She has diverted Vanguard resources to your deployment.

Research Instrument Fabricated: Munitions Deployment Apparatus – When receiving a buff in Breach Executable, also unlock extra relics or munitions to aid you in combat.

• Failsafe has found that the incubator specimen contains remnants of both radiolite and base radiolaria. She requires more ambient data from interactions with Vex.
• Secure Extracted Data for Failsafe in the Breach Executable activity, which can be launched from the H.E.L.M.
• Higher-difficulty completions grant faster progress.
  • Collect Extracted Data
  • Activate one Planetary Assimilation Piston

Step 4

Your Radiolite research has advanced Failsafe’s capabilities!

Research Instrument Fabricated: Primary Echo Engram Focusing – Focus Echo Engrams into weapons and armor at Failsafe in the H.E.L.M.

• Speak with Failsafe in the H.E.L.M. to review her final specimen analysis report.
  • Review Failsafe’s Report.

Step 5

The Seized Radiolite Incubator can be placed in the specimen display at the H.E.L.M.

• Travel to the H.E.L.M. and place the Seized Radiolite Incubator into your specimen collection.
  • Display your specimen.
