Find the Gravity Well and reach the distressed Rangers
UNKNOWN 6 is in the patterned city above the Oldest House, and reaching it is part of The Unknown Resonant side mission. DOWNTOWN 5 also appears as a map designation; use the activated Gravity Well marker to identify the starting drop. Arish speaks over the radio as you reach the lower road.
Advance through the Pattern barrier and enemy corridor
Once the barrier gives way, the open gates lead into another Hiss fight before the underpass. Combat can yield Diverted Form, Distorted Form, Patterned Thought and Hedron Sequence as pickups.
Cross the gravity obstacles to the Rangers’ gate
The pit between road segments comes before the rotating rings. After the turbine crossing, descend to the lower street.
Open the resource crate at the bottom of the road pit before jumping back to the street.
Open the Rangers’ route and bypass the later locked gate
The control room opens the Rangers’ route first. The Look for a Way Around the Gate objective comes later, after the street ambush and interior stairwell. At the balcony road, Dylan speaks over the radio and confirms that Arish is in his office.
Survive the courtyard ambush and enter the field office
In the courtyard, several airborne enemies are Hiss Resonants. Dodge their energy projectiles while defeating them, then finish the remaining waves before heading up the front staircase.
Activate Patterned Field Office and find The Co-Director
Activate the travel point and you’ll see “Patterned Field Office – Fast Travel Door Activated.” You’re immediately before the boss encounter here at Patterned Field Office. As the elevator prepares, Arish speaks over comms, and then the doors open to reveal bright golden light.
Beyond the elevator, you reach the boss arena looking out over the core. The fight starts here. Your objective reads Kill the Resonant, while the upper health bar gives you the boss’s name: THE CO-DIRECTOR.
