Starfield Mantis quest explained: Solve the puzzle, get legendary ship and armour
08.09.2023 - 11:39 / radiotimes.com
If you're after some legendary loot early on, you'll want to know how to get the Starfield Mantis quest.
Completing this quest will bag you some impressive rewards including a fancy new ship and armour.
As building ships in Bethesda's mighty space RPG can cost the world, universe and everything in between, getting a brand-spanking new one for free is definitely worth doing. That shiny new armour is worth completing the Mantis quest for, too.
Read on, intrepid space explorer, to find out how to get the Mantis quest in Starfield and how to solve its pesky puzzle to complete the mission.
To get the Mantis quest in Starfield, you need to just keep killing and looting Spacers until you find a datapad called Secret Outpost! on one of them.
Read the datapad and the quest will automatically be added, simply titled: MANTIS.
A quest marker will appear, which you need to follow to the star system Denebola.
A point of interest will be marked on the moon Denebola I-b. Land there and the rest of the quest will play out.
If you want to go into the quest without knowing what lies ahead then stop reading, as there will be spoilers down below.
Read more on Starfield:
As you blast your way down into the lair, be sure to loot everyone you kill, as some will be carrying journals that contain information about the Mantis quest.
In one of these, Leo – the former owner of the lair – will note that his mother would repeat the phrase «sic semper tyrannis», which is Latin for «thus always to tyrants».
Tyrannis is the keyword here, as you will eventually come to a puzzle with eight rows of letters. Getting it wrong will see the turrets open up and puncture you Swiss cheese-style fairly quickly.
To proceed, walk on the letters T-Y-R-A-N-N-I-S to get through safely.
Press the button on the other side and go through the gate, but turn to your right and you will find a locked door. Digipick the lock and you will be rewarded with a very good weapon.
Past this, you will face off against a few robots in the main area of the lair before getting your grubby paws on the good loot.

For successfully seeing off the spacers, puzzles and robots, you will be rewarded with quite the collection of loot and 200 XP. On a mannequin is the Mantis spacesuit, helmet and boostpack.
The Legendary traits are randomised, though, and if you save the game before you open the mannequin case, you can change the Mantis suits traits. Below are some of the traits it can have — but you may see more in game.
There is also the Razorleaf ship

Meta has started rolling out its Meta Quest v57 update for its Quest virtual reality headsets. The update brings a range of new features and upgrades for Quest users such as unsending image messages, horizon feed, and more.

Users will now be able to do a bunch of customization previously not possible such as adding highlights to hair, using a slider to pick a specific base hair color, and even choosing the color of your eyebrows.
