1999’s ‘The Hex’ quest actually has a second part, and here’s how to unlock it – Destructoid
Warframe: 1999 is here, but its flagship ‘The Hex’ quest ends with quite an unsatisfying conclusion. Not to worry, though, because there’s actually a second 1999 quest, The Hex Finale.
Beyond questing, make sure to check out Warframe’s latest frame, Cyte-09, how to build him, and how to build his sniper rifle, but keep reading to learn how you can unlock The Hex Finale.
Spoilers will follow for ‘The Hex’ quest, but there will be no spoilers for part two.
Warframe’s ‘The Hex’ quest’s second part
When you complete The Hex, things are looking pretty dreary. All your new friends are dead courtesy of a nuke destroying the beautiful city of Höllvania, and the Drifter is ready to loop again. The good news is that you won’t have to wait for a future update to try out that second loop.
The Hex Finale lets you attempt that fateful New Year’s Eve once more, but you’ll have to play the second part for yourself to see how things turn out. However, the game doesn’t explicitly tell you there is a second part, nor does it tell you how to unlock it until you’ve actually done so.
Plus, you need to complete The Hex Finale to rank up the Hex syndicate to the fourth rank, and once you hit that rank, the Hex group chat, as well as your DMs with Hex members, are all updated to reflect the events of The Hex Finale, essentially moving up the timeline of your relationships.
Luckily, it doesn’t take too much work to get to The Hex Finale.
How to unlock ‘The Hex Finale’ quest in Warframe
Put simply, you need to level up your relationships with the Hex syndicate members, Eleanor, Aoi, Lettie, Arthur, Quincy, and Amir, to ‘liked’ status before the quest will be available to you. Once you have your relationships in order, you can start The Hex Finale from the Backroom in Höllvania.
The quest itself is short, and the game tells you beforehand to expect around a 15-minute adventure. Nonetheless, it’s an essential quest to play once you finish The Hex. To that end, there are a few different ways you can level up your relationships with the Hex syndicate members.
Completing the Höllvania bounty side objectives will award you with chemistry that levels up your relationships. Simply messaging the Hex members from your Backroom PC each day will also level up your relationships. Lastly, sending the Hex members gifts can do the same thing.
As long as you do some (or all) of the above, getting to ‘liked’ status won’t take more than a few days. You’ll likely unlock The Hex Finale by the time you’re around the third rank in the Hex syndicate if you’re doing your bounties for the chemistry bonus. So, it’s not all that much of a grind.
