BO7 Campaign Intel: All 31 Collectibles and Loremaster

BO7 has 31 Campaign Intel: 11 artifacts plus 20 Endgame documents. Where they are, why none are missable, and how to get the Loremaster trophy.

Black Ops 7’s campaign hides 31 Intel collectibles, and grabbing all of them unlocks the Loremaster trophy/achievement. The good news: none are missable — every piece is saved the instant you pick it up, and you can replay any mission or the Endgame mode from mission select after the story.

The two halves

  • 11 Artifacts — one per campaign mission. These are unique objects, not folders or laptops, and each mission contains exactly one. They’re found along the main path, often just off it, and get a white outline when you’re close.
  • 20 Documents — in Endgame PvE. After you beat all 11 missions, the Endgame mode unlocks on the open-world Avalon map. The 20 documents are scattered across Zones 1-4 on desks, shelves, rooftops, and boats, grouped into categories like Guild History, Cradle Reports, Civilian Letters, Avalon Security, and Guild Reports. Some sit in higher-threat zones (Tier 2+), so come prepared.

Endgame documents

The 20 documents don’t have a fixed pickup order, but a methodical zone sweep finds them: several sit in well-lit workspaces (desks and shelves), others on rooftops and boats. Examples verified by collectors include a Guild Report on a boat southwest of High Town, another in the Low Town cathedral balcony, one atop the radio tower northeast of the Chop Shop, and one in the Zone 4 Fort armory. Sweep each zone corner to corner rather than rushing.

Why bother

The artifacts fill in the story; the Endgame documents deepen the Avalon world. If your goal is the platinum or 100%, Loremaster is one of the easier completions because nothing can be locked behind a missed window — see our hardest achievements guide for which trophies actually demand skill. And every campaign replay also feeds the unified XP pool, so collectible hunting doubles as account progression.
