History of Niobe Labs

Revision 18335 by archivist at 2026-10-10 08:26:36

Niobe Labs is a secret Black Armory facility on Earth, in the European Dead Zone, that holds the Bergusia Forge, one of the Black Armory's Lost Forges. It was introduced in Season of the Forge and closed off with the release of Beyond Light. It is a private area connected to Sojourner's Camp, and its enemies are Kell's Scourge Fallen and Red Legion Cabal.

Overview

Niobe Labs was one of four Lost Forges that Guardians were sent to reactivate during the Black Armory's launch. Its forge, the Bergusia Forge, only unlocks once the lab's puzzle is solved.

Location

Niobe Labs sits in the EDZ Outskirts, near Sojourner's Camp. Past the camp, cross the broken bridge, turn left into the forested area and follow the path to the lab entrance. Inside, follow the enemies to a large locked door.

Puzzle

The lab is sealed by a puzzle that uses the scopes of Black Armory forge weapons. Players use the scopes to reveal symbols hidden around the area and shoot them in the correct order. The weapons the puzzle calls for are the Forge Hammerhead, Sniper, Bow and Machine Gun. Players who want to work through the steps can follow the Newsweek guide or the puzzle video listed in the sources.

Rewards

Unlocking the lab opens the Bergusia Forge quest, which gives access to the fourth and final Black Armory forge.
