You can access the Void Intercepts from the main world map in the bottom left corner, while the Void Fusion Reactor Missions will appear on the sector maps, and you will need to destroy Void Fragments to be able to start them.
Within the Amorphous Materials are different rewards, and you will get a random drop from that loot pool. To find out exactly what you should be chasing for each of the characters or weapons you wish to research, you will need to visit Magister Anais in Albion. Talk to her and select the following options:
- Research Request
- Descendant
- Pick your Descendant of choice
- Examine their parts and check the blueprints for each one to see which Amorphous Material can drop them.
- This will also tell you what you need to do to open that particular material.
So, as you can see, it is a little bit complicated but boils down to doing one group of missions to farm the Amorphous Materials, and another group to open those materials and get the sweet rewards inside.
