The 'Alien Decryption Key' is an Internal-sized component.
Description[edit | edit source]
The Encryption challenge found in Alien Explorables is solved by this component, the Alien Decryption Key. Encryption is always the final obstacle to its Explorable's loot and requires the completion of any prior challenges (mainly System Scan, Disconnected Circuit and, if applicable, Datakey) to access.
The challenge is solved by interacting with the Explorable using a bot with this component equipped. After some time the Key's symbols will appear on the encryption register. Upon a successful countup from 1 to 5 the encryption will be broken and disburse the explorable's loot.
This component must first be acquired from a Console, an Alien-faction Explorable structure. Its challenges include a System Scan, Disconnected Circuit and a Blight Datakey Port. Once acquired the Key need only be slotted into a bot interacting with Explorables and will interface with Encryption challenges automatically. It is not expended on use; a single Alien Decryption Key can be used on multiple Explorables.
