All 4 Graviton Spike catalysts and where they are
Every 
Graviton Spike catalyst is built from 3 catalyst fragments. Each fragment sits behind a puzzle on Kepler. The gun opens every one of them.
- Find the blue bud. Look for a closed flower that glows blue near a spinning fan.
- Shoot it in Arc mode. The bud blooms and shows a Stasis crystal inside.
- Break the crystal in Stasis mode. Swap modes and shoot it until it shatters. The fan nearby stops or slows.
- Get through the fan fast. Enter Matterspark form and pass the blades before they speed up. The fragment waits behind them.
| Catalyst | What it does | World tier | Fragment areas |
|---|---|---|---|
 Rapid Hit | Rapid precision hits raise stability and reload speed for a short time | Fabled | Outer Steppes, Augur's Bethel in Exile's Accord, the Singularity path |
 Subsistence | Kills partly reload the magazine from reserves | Fabled | The Singularity path, the rail line in Exile's Accord, the Outer Wastes power plant |
 Transcendent Zen | Final blows grant stats by the damage type's alignment | Mythic | The Caldera, the Aionian campus, deep in the Singularity |
 Temporal Alignment | Overcharging both Arc and Stasis modes grants a period of bonus damage | Mythic | The Caldera, the north of the Gorge, deep in the Singularity |
Each catalyst needs all 3 of its fragments. Collect all 12 and the Gravitic Doctorate triumph completes too.
No time for 12 puzzles? A Pro collects the fragments on your account and unlocks the catalysts you pick.

The 3 intrinsics: Temporal Manipulation II to IV
The intrinsic of Graviton Spike is 
Temporal Manipulation. It has 3 upgrades: Temporal Manipulation II, III and IV. Each upgrade hides behind its own blue bud and fan.
| Intrinsic | Region |
|---|---|
| Temporal Manipulation II | Curtilage Divide |
| Temporal Manipulation III | The Caldera |
| Temporal Manipulation IV | The Stellar Sink in the Gorge, from the Assimilated Easement landing zone |
The intrinsics are the easier half of the job. Do them before you raise the world tier for the catalysts.
Which world tier each catalyst needs
The fragments only show up on the higher world tiers. The blue buds for a tier stay hidden below it.
- Fabled. The 6 fragments of Rapid Hit and Subsistence.
- Mythic. The 6 fragments of Transcendent Zen and Temporal Alignment.
Mythic is the hardest part. The 3rd Transcendent Zen fragment sits behind a tough Vandal guard. Bring a fireteam for that room.
The Vandal can despawn after a death. Leave the area and come back to make him appear again.

Get Graviton Spike: the Graviton Through the Ages quest
The catalysts need the gun on your account. Graviton Spike comes from the Exotic quest Graviton Through the Ages. It opens after The Edge of Fate campaign. The quest has 15 steps.
- Speak to Lodi. Then speak with the Emeritus in the Caldera.
- Use the Rosetta device in the Outer Steppes. Triangulate the weapon piece and find it in the search area.
- Repeat in the Gorge. Triangulate and find the 2nd piece.
- Repeat in Exile's Accord. Triangulate and find the 3rd piece.
- Collect Data Fragments from Vex. Stronger Vex drop more data.
- Assemble the gun in the Sieve. The Sieve activity appears on the Kepler map at set times. Claim the chest at the end.
Graviton Spike lands in your inventory, or in the Postmaster when the inventory is full.
What Graviton Spike does
Graviton Spike is an Exotic hand cannon with 2 modes. Its intrinsic, Temporal Manipulation, swaps between a fast-firing Arc mode and a slow-firing Stasis mode. Final blows and precision hits overcharge the other mode.
Temporal Anomaly is its trait. While a mode is overcharged, Arc mode calls down lightning strikes. Stasis mode makes an explosion and a formation of Stasis crystals.
Graviton Spike is a craftable weapon. Its catalysts go on through shaping or reshaping in weapon crafting. You pick 1 catalyst at a time.
Where it ranks among the Exotics is on our Exotic weapons tier list.
