Where To Find Kafka Ascension Materials

Now that we’ve gone over all the materials you will need to ascend Kafka, you’ll need to find these items in the game. These will require you toexplore, complete quests, and take on challenges.Here’s where you’re able to find each required item.

Where To Find Thief’s Instinct, Usurper’s Scheme, & Conqueror’s Will

There are quite a few different ways you can get your hands on these three character ascension materials. To start, you can take onAntimatter Legion enemies,which you can easily find on Herta Space Station,especially in the Storage Zone.They will appear like the second image above,either as a human-like figure or a floating, purple sphere. Some of the name of the enemies includesStormbringer, Voidranger: Distorter, Voidranger: Eliminator, Baryon, and more.

You’ll also find that some enemies in theSimulated Universewill drop this material. This will be a more inconsistent method, however, as it’s not guaranteed you will get these materials rather than other ascension materials. You can also get these fromAssignment Rewards,which you can find on your phone. Under the Character Materials section, choose’Destruction of the Destroyer’to get Thief’s Instinct rewards.
