Failsafe is concerned that this specimen looks hungry and has run an analysis of its dietary needs. Collect Iridescent Radiolite to find nutritional clusters within. Failsafe calls these clusters "Bufo Bites," and believes they mirror the animal's natural food source.

To keep this specimen happy, healthy, and enriched, it will need a natural habitat. Collect flora from Nessus to prepare a small terrarium in the H.E.L.M.

The H.E.L.M. doesn't have room for more than one specimen. That doesn't mean its species should go unprotected. Defeat Vex on Nessus to ensure a safe habitat.

Speak with Failsafe in the H.E.L.M. to review her final specimen analysis report.

Give Captain Jacobson a new home in the H.E.L.M.

The weapon is calibrated to do medium amounts of damage. The next step to narrowing down its source is identifying its damage type. Defeat combatants with Arc or Solar damage to provide a signature reading. Defeating other Guardians grants bonus progress.

The specimen appears to deal Arc damage through a modified power source. Generate Orbs of Power to generate some potential comparison data for Failsafe to study. Orbs generated in Crucible or Gambit generate bonus progress.
