To complete The Hyperglitch in Unscathed, speak with Cyclonus, collect all five Minigun Blueprint Pieces, then return to Cyclonus and select “Hand in the minigun blueprints”. The pieces are at five landmarks: the floating platforms by the blue portal, the red wooden house, the cave behind the small waterfall, the back of the temple, and the crystal cave. You can collect them in any order. Use the quest counter as your confirmation because the available walkthroughs do not provide coordinates or an officially published map.
How do I start The Hyperglitch quest?
Find Cyclonus and talk to him before searching for the blueprints. The Minigun Blueprint Pieces are quest collectibles, so starting the dialogue first gives you the objective and lets the game track the pieces you pick up.
- Speak with Cyclonus and accept or start The Hyperglitch.
- Travel to the five landmarks listed below. There is no required collection sequence.
- After the counter shows all five pieces, return to Cyclonus and use the hand-in dialogue option.
If you explore before activating the quest, do not assume that a previously visited landmark has counted. Talk to Cyclonus first, then use the counter to verify every pickup.
Where are all five Minigun Blueprint Pieces?
The five reported locations are summarized here. Each row names the landmark and the general surface to inspect; the detailed sections explain what to look for so that scenery does not distract you.
| Piece | Landmark | Area to search |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Floating platforms by the blue portal | Wall beside or behind the portal structure |
| 2 | Red wooden house | Exterior side and back walls |
| 3 | Cave behind the small waterfall | Interior wall farther along the cave path |
| 4 | Temple | Back exterior wall of the temple building |
| 5 | Crystal cave | Rear rock formations or a crevice deeper inside |
The guides describing these spots disagree slightly about the red house, calling the placement either a side wall or a back wall. Treat that as a search-area difference rather than two separate pieces: circle the entire outside of the house.
1. Floating platforms by the blue portal
Look for the area with floating platforms leading toward the blue portal structure. Cross the platforms until you reach the portal, then inspect the wall immediately beside it and the wall just behind it. The piece is associated with the portal structure, not with a random platform in the approach.
- Use the portal’s blue color and the suspended platforms as your landmark.
- Check both sides of the structure if the first wall appears empty; the descriptions place the pickup beside or behind the portal.
- Move close to the wall and look at the base, corners and any recess rather than scanning only the open platform.
Once the pickup registers, pause long enough to confirm that the quest counter increased before moving on. That check prevents you from having to retrace the floating-platform route later.
2. The red wooden house
The second piece is on the outside of the red wooden house. Because the published descriptions use both “side wall” and “back wall,” the dependable method is to walk around the whole exterior instead of choosing one compass direction and leaving.
- Identify the red wooden building first; nearby scenery can make a wall look red without being the house.
- Inspect the side walls, rear corners and the full back wall.
- Look close to the building surface and around corners where the collectible can blend into the structure.
Do not spend time searching the rooms unless the game takes you inside for another reason. The reported placement is exterior, and a complete circuit of the house is faster than repeatedly checking one wall.
3. The cave behind the small waterfall
Find the small waterfall and enter the cave opening behind it. Follow the path beyond the entrance; the third piece is on an interior wall farther inside rather than at the waterfall’s visible face.
- Approach the small waterfall and pass through or behind it to reach the opening.
- Continue along the cave path instead of turning around after the first chamber.
- Examine the interior wall beyond the entrance, including bends in the path and darker sections that are easy to overlook.
Water effects and the cave entrance can hide the transition into the tunnel. If the counter does not change, continue deeper before deciding that the area is empty.
4. The temple building
The fourth piece is attached to the temple’s back exterior wall. Approach the temple as a building and walk around it; the front façade and surrounding grounds are not the reported pickup surface.
- Use the temple structure as the reference point rather than a nearby decorative ruin.
- Walk around the sides until you reach the rear exterior wall.
- Check the wall closely, including the corners where the rear face meets the side walls.
A full circuit matters because the temple can look open from several angles. Once you reach the back, move along the wall slowly enough for the pickup prompt or counter update to register.
5. The crystal cave
The final piece is deeper in the crystal-filled cave. Continue into the cave and search the rear rock formations or a crevice near the back, not just the first crystal-covered chamber.
- Enter the cave and keep following the passage past the most obvious crystal clusters.
- Search behind and between the rear rock formations.
- Check crevices and narrow recesses where the blueprint can be visually obscured by the rock geometry.
If you leave after checking only the entrance, you may miss the fifth piece. Treat the back of the cave as the destination and verify the counter before returning to the surface.
Can I collect the pieces in any order?
Yes. The walkthroughs report that all five pieces can be collected in any order, so there is no quest-gated sequence to unlock. Choose an order that matches your current position or lets you finish one landmark completely before traveling to the next.
There is no verified fastest route, spawn-to-landmark distance or coordinate list in the available material. A practical approach is to mark each completed landmark in your own notes and leave an area only after the counter confirms the pickup. This avoids confusing a searched location with a registered location.
How do I finish The Hyperglitch after finding the pieces?
When the quest counter reaches 5/5, go back to Cyclonus. Speak with him and select the dialogue option “Hand in the minigun blueprints” to turn in the collection and complete the quest.
- Check the counter and make sure it shows five collected pieces.
- Return to Cyclonus rather than interacting with another quest giver.
- Choose “Hand in the minigun blueprints” from the dialogue list.
- Wait for the completion response before closing the conversation.
The hand-in choice is the completion step; collecting the last item alone does not finish the objective. If the option is absent, treat the missing dialogue as a progress or quest-state problem and work through the checks below.
What should I do if one piece is missing?
Use the counter to identify whether the issue is an unregistered pickup or an unsearched landmark. The reported walkthroughs specifically flag the red house, temple and the deeper parts of both caves as easy-to-miss surfaces.
The counter did not increase
Stay in the area and approach the wall or rock formation again from a slightly different angle. Move close enough for the pickup to register, then watch the counter rather than relying on a visual assumption that the piece was collected.
The red house seems empty
Circle every exterior wall. Check both side walls, the rear wall and all rear corners because the location descriptions use different side-versus-back wording.
The temple seems empty
Walk completely around the building and return to the rear exterior wall. Searching only the front or the open space around the temple does not cover the reported placement.
The waterfall cave seems empty
Go behind the small waterfall and continue beyond the entrance. The piece is reported on an interior wall farther along the path, so the first chamber is not a sufficient search.
The crystal cave seems empty
Continue toward the rear of the cave and inspect the rock formations and crevices. Crystal clusters at the entrance are not the stated search area for the fifth piece.
The hand-in dialogue is unavailable
Confirm that the counter reads 5/5 and that you started The Hyperglitch with Cyclonus. If either condition is missing, the game may not offer the hand-in choice yet; return to the unconfirmed landmark or restart the conversation after the counter updates.
What is confirmed about these locations and possible updates?
Two independent walkthroughs, one updated August 24, 2026 and another updated August 25, 2026, describe the same five landmarks and the Cyclonus hand-in flow. They are instructional guides rather than official developer documentation, and no official coordinate map was established.
The available reports do not establish whether a later live-game update can move a piece or alter quest behavior. If your counter contradicts a location above, trust the in-game counter, recheck the complete landmark surface and account for a possible change in the live version rather than inventing a new coordinate.
How can I track the search without backtracking?
Because the order is flexible, use a simple five-item checklist while you play: blue portal platforms, red house exterior, waterfall cave interior, temple rear wall and crystal cave rear. Mark an item only after the counter changes, not merely after you visit the landmark.
This method is especially useful when a server change or interruption breaks your memory of which wall you inspected. The counter is the authoritative progress signal available during the quest, while the landmarks are navigation aids.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the blueprint pieces remain counted if I change servers?
The available walkthroughs do not document server-change persistence or a reset rule. Before leaving a server, note the counter and the landmarks you confirmed so you can distinguish saved progress from a location you only searched.
Can another player’s pickup complete my Minigun blueprint objective?
No shared-credit behavior is established in the published guides. Check your own quest counter after every pickup; only that counter can confirm that your character received the piece.
Why is the red-house location described differently in guides?
One description calls it a side wall and another calls it a back wall. Those labels refer to the same exterior search area, so walking the complete perimeter is safer than relying on a single directional label.
Could a future Unscathed update move the pieces?
The guides updated on August 24 and 25, 2026 report the landmarks listed here, but they are not official patch notes. If a later update changes the quest, compare the counter and current in-game landmarks rather than assuming the older placement still applies.
