Welcome to The Outer Worlds 2 Collectible Guide!
There are several types of collectibles that can be found in The Outer Worlds 2. These are cards, magazines, audio logs and lightning towers. These are all needed for Trophies.
The cards are the majority of what you need to find. There are over 100 of them to collect and you need 100 for Whew, That’s Enough!. These can be found across every location in the game and will give you a permanent stat boost when collected. Some of them are missable and others can only be found by following certain quests. All of that will be listed down below. Some cards need to be bought in order to be collected. If you’re doing your Anti-Consumerist run, you can skip those.
The magazines are found on Paradise and there are only 10 of them. All 10 are needed for the SA Quarterlies Quantified Trophy. Turning in 5 of them will reward you with a card.
Mural Fragments are found on Golden Ridge and there are only 5 of them. These are big pieces of a mural that are all found hanging on walls in tram stations. You need all 5 for the Golden Ridge Murals In Plural Trophy.
Grounding Stations are lightning towers that basically just need to be turned on. There are only 5 of them and they are on Praetor. All 5 are needed for the Praetor Towers Powered Trophy.
Excogitation Logs are audio logs that are found in Excogitation Chapels on Cloister. There are only 4 of them. You will need all 4 of them for the Cloister Excogitation Logs CEL-ebration Trophy.
You can refer to The Outer Worlds 2 Trophy Guide and Roadmap for more information on how to side with each of the factions and not miss anything.

This card is on the pipe at the top that connects the two big tanks closer to the one on the left. You need to jump up onto the small silver pipes that are sticking out of the water tank in order to make it to the top. This can be very tricky as the pipes are thin.
