Events like those give 2 Fated Ciphers on Legendary difficulty, while matchmade activities like The Sieve and Time Latch Missions reward even more.

Time Latch Missions

Time Latch Missionsare going to be your most reliable way of getting Fated Ciphers. These only take a few minutes to complete, but this may depend on what mission you end up getting. Completing a Time Latch Mission will reward you with Fated Ciphers as well as loot from the Kepler pool.

The Sieve

The Sieve, on the other hand, is a post-campaign activitythat only becomes available periodically. After you finish theEdge of Fatestory, open your map and look for an activity icon to the left of the Caldera LZ. This will let you know how much time is left before The Sieve is active again.

The Sieve is a great way to farm forEdge of Fategear and Fated Ciphers. You cankeep starting new encounters in the Sieveuntil the activity goes offline, which means you can farm for as long as you’d like. Think of the Sieve as an endurance mission for players who really want to get more loot. Justmake sure to bring a buildthat can handle the pressure.

In this activity,players will help Drifter run a dark matter mining operation. All you need to do here is fend off waves of enemies while Drifter does the mining, then beat the boss after the mining is finished to receive loot. After that, you and your fireteam can start the activity again, or leave once you’ve had your fill of carnage.

Sieve runs should reward you with three Fated Ciphers per activity loop, though more may be given if you challenge it on higher difficulties.
