Secrets of the Cult Cognitator?
On the secrets of the cult quest (on Kiava Gamma) you speak to a hex mechanic who tells you there's a cognitator (in the north of the map). Finding that, it says you need codes.

Tried the Dogmatic and the Icon options and then going to it, both say you still need codes. Cleared the rest of the level (Chaos Marine, crazy spider mech) and not found the codes. Anyone able to tell me where to get them since talking to the lex mechanic doesn't give them to you? Where else on the level are they?

I found the location (of the cognitator) before I found the lexmechanic if that has anything to do with it. Not sure where else to get the codes other than the lexmechanic.

Dialogue at least says he gives the code over. So I missing something or it a mission bug?

That should be a bug.
You should get the code to unlock the door via the lexmechanic.

I think the cogitator is the one in the loot room next to the chaos marine? I'm pretty sure the code from that comes from one of the side quests down the bottom of your log. There's like critical tasks and i think it's called classified information or something along those lines. I think Heinrix uses his electroo tattoo thing to open a secret room on the other side.

There's 3 sets of codes required on this map and only two are available on the map, the 3rd one for the cogitator linked to a cargo elevator is on a derelict ship with a story interface, you need to select visiting the bridge and succeed at the skill checks.

Thanks. Might have to load an earlier save to make sure I"m doing it right then.

The cargo elevator code is 100% optional, it only spawns loot (some cargo and a hammer) and an enemy. Not worth the effort to load a previous save.
You only need the code from the techpriest near the steam vents to do Henrik's quest.
The codes for the data vault for the Secret Information quest are from talking to people on your ship's bridge.

Got it. Will go ahead and try that then and see if it works! Appreciated. I just know there's a lift you have to take to go deeper into the facility to fight the demon that I can't get to appear (in the space where you need to use the cogitator) to finish Henrik's quest (I think).

Screamer demon, mutatns in cages, etc. That's the part that I can't get to.

Right, screamer demon and mutants in cages is code from techpriest near steamvents. It unlocks the door that's reached by the round catwalk area that spins around when you activate the console. Beyond that are the mutants in cages.

Yeah, that's not working for me even after I got the codes from him. It says I don't have them even after talked with him and got them. So seems like a bug.

Might try replaying the level later to see if that fixes things.

Seems like a bug. Tried replaying level, went to find cognitator first (says you need the codes). Went to talk to lexmechanic first, then went toc ognitator, says need the codes.

Tried Iconoclast and Dogmatic options, same issue. Seems like a bug as from looking at guides and watching LP's the trigger for access seems to be the conversation with the lexmechanic/dialogue that sets a trigger for getting the information necessary. Reported.

Given it seems to lock out Heinrix as a companion going to wait until bug is ddressed or there's a workaround given before continuing.
