Triumvirate Drive Collectibles Overview
Triumvirate Drive is one of the industrial and commercial zones of Glass featured in Mirror's Edge Catalyst. Like every district, it tracks four collectible types that feed into your district completion percentage and overall 100% collection stat. Clearing this zone rewards Chipsets, lore entries, and progress toward collection-based trophies such as Gridunocked.
The four collectible categories you need to sweep here are:
| Collectible | Type | Purpose | How to Collect |
|---|---|---|---|
| GridLeak | In-world device | Stops interference, district completion | Run through and smash mid-movement |
| Document | Lore item | Unlocks story log entries | Pick up in interiors and alcoves |
| Chipset | Progression item | Buys Upgrade Chips for skill tree | Reach hard parkour spots, earn event stars |
| Runner Bag | Hidden item | District and 100% completion | Find off-path rooftops and rooms |
Unlock the Exploration Markers gear upgrades before grinding Triumvirate Drive. These reveal nearby collectible markers on your map, so you can plan efficient rooftop loops instead of wandering the district blindly.
Collectible Locations by Type
Each collectible type in Triumvirate Drive follows a placement pattern. GridLeaks hug the main parkour lines and sit on rooftops, billboards, and facade ledges where you can hit them at speed. Documents hide indoors — offices, maintenance rooms, and side-mission interiors. Chipsets sit at the end of deliberately tricky traversal routes. Runner Bags are tucked off the main path on rooftops and inside buildings.
| Location Type | Common Collectibles | Difficulty | Recommended Approach |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rooftop parkour lines | GridLeaks | ★★☆☆☆ | Chain wall-runs and smash leaks at full speed |
| Building interiors | Documents, Bags | ★★☆☆☆ | Check offices and maintenance rooms during missions |
| High ledges and towers | Chipsets | ★★★★☆ | Build Flow first, then commit to the climb |
| Billboards and facade gaps | GridLeaks, Chipsets | ★★★☆☆ | Use wall-runs and the MAG Rope to reach |
| Underpass and street level | GridLeaks | ★★☆☆☆ | Drop down only when two or more leaks are close |
Chipset routes in Triumvirate Drive often demand unbroken Momentum. If you stall halfway up a climb, drop to a safe ledge, reset, and rebuild Flow from the start rather than forcing a jump from a standstill — Faith's jump distance scales with speed.
Step-by-Step Collection Route
Follow this sequence to sweep Triumvirate Drive efficiently without backtracking.
Unlock Map Upgrades and Fast Travel
Grab the Exploration Markers gear upgrades and activate the district's fast-travel point. This reveals collectible markers and lets you reset to the zone center between loops.
Clear the Rooftop GridLeak Lines
Run the main parkour routes at full speed and smash every flashing GridLeak along the way. Group them into loops so each pass destroys three to five leaks in one unbroken run.
Sweep Interiors for Documents and Bags
Enter offices and maintenance rooms accessible during and after the district's missions. Documents and Runner Bags frequently sit inside these interiors, just off the highlighted path.
Commit to the Chipset Climb Routes
Identify Chipset markers at high or awkward spots, then plan a full-Flow approach using wall-runs, coils, and the MAG Rope. Retry from a safe reset point if a chain breaks.
Verify District Completion
Open the map and confirm every collectible icon is cleared. Any leftover markers indicate a missed GridLeak hub or a bag hidden at street level.
Triumvirate Drive's Dashes and Time Trials overlap with many collectible routes. Earn star ratings on these runs while collecting — Dash rewards include bonus Chipsets, doubling your progress toward Upgrade Chips.
