WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Sire Melk’s weekly contract board aboard the Mourningstar, followed by missions where Scripture side objectives are available.

Scripture collection is a targeted mission objective for players whose active Sire Melk contract asks for it. The contract is the reason to pursue the books: Scripture pickups are not Plasteel or Diamantine for Shrine crafting. Check Melk’s board first, then search the mission with the strike team while continuing its main objectives. Use the contract interface to confirm that progress is advancing, and stop searching once the listed target is complete or the route becomes unsafe.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Unlock Sire Melk’s weekly contracts.
  • Have an active contract requesting Scripture collection.
  • Choose a mission your team can complete while checking side areas.
  1. Open Melk’s contract board and confirm a Scripture objective is active.
  2. Read the displayed target and current progress before launching.
  3. Select a mission and tell the strike team you will check for its Scripture objectives.
  4. Follow the mission route and search accessible side areas as the team advances.
  5. When a Scripture is found, collect it and check whether contract progress updates.
  6. Continue searching only while the team can do so without risking the mission.
  7. Finish the mission, return to the Mourningstar, and review the contract board.
  8. Claim the contract reward through the board when the objective is complete.

Farming tips

  • Coordinate the search with the team; Scripture collection happens as a side objective during co-op missions.
  • Check the contract counter rather than assuming every book-like pickup qualifies.

Repeat, collect and use

This is a limited weekly contract farm: search only while the Scripture objective is active and incomplete. Its completed contract reward contributes Melk currency for special equipment; Scriptures are not Shrine crafting materials.

Common mistakes

  • Searching without an active Scripture contract: check Melk’s board before queueing.
  • Treating Scripture pickups as crafting materials: Plasteel and Diamantine are used at Hadron’s Shrine.
  • Leaving the strike team behind to search: check side areas together when the route is safe.

When to stop or switch

Stop searching when the contract is complete, or return to the main objective if continuing the search could endanger the run.
