In order to earn Vexcaliber, you must unlock and complete a secret mission called //node.ovrd.AVALON//, better known as Avalon.

To start the quest, you must visit the ravine

in the EDZ, and touch six data nodes. Once you touch the first node, a timer starts and you will have 30 seconds to reach the next node. They can be done in any order and you can repeat your attempt if you run out of time.

The six nodes are in these locations:

Once you find all six nodes, a portion of the sky will be filled with Vex data. Below this point is a cave. Enter it and a harpy will be waiting for you to start the //node.ovrd.AVALON or Avalon mission.
