Core Fragment Codex

DIRECT ANSWER

Core Fragment Codex: current answer

The Core Fragment Codex had unnecessary data removed in AG-12. That is an interface-data cleanup; the announcement does not say that a Core was removed from the game or that its combat effect changed.

Quick facts

  • The Codex change is listed under AG-12's UI improvements.
  • The source does not identify the individual fields or entries removed.

Practical workflow — editorial guidance

Use the current Codex text when taking build notes and record the game version with any screenshot.

If comparing against an older screenshot, distinguish a missing display field from an unavailable Core.

For a suspected omission, record the exact entry name and the missing field rather than treating the entire Codex as a complete unlock checklist.

Evidence limits

The source does not establish the Codex's full contents, completion requirements or a relationship between removed data and progression.

Related systems and next steps

System

Core Fragments

Core Fragment guidance and encounter rewards changed after launch: AG-25 improves unlock prompts and increases Core Fragment chests in Infested Nest. These notes support a dated acquisition history, not an exact farming-rate table.

System

Core Builds

Revisit a Core build when a patch changes its actual effect or availability. Vortex Shell gained damage, Thunderbolt Arrow gained damage area, and later notes changed Core selection and activation behavior; none of those facts alone establishes a universal best build.

Build Testing Method

An interpretable build test records the patch, encounter, loadout and target conditions, then changes one variable at a time. This is an editorial testing method: it helps separate documented balance changes from visual changes and unmeasured impressions.

Update

Directive AG-12: Post-launch State Maintenance

Directive AG-12: Post-launch State Maintenance was published on 2026-08-12. Soldier Aging gained an immediately effective toggle that can be changed at any time; disabling aging stops its effects on soldiers.
