The Spireton Access Override Card is an in-game quest item in The Outer Worlds 2. Game8’s walkthrough says you receive it from Presiding Bishop Ruth Basar after completing the Order-linked quest An Equitable Arrangement; use it to open certain Spireton buildings, including a route to the turret-control terminal. It does not activate the Spireton Lift.

What is the Spireton Access Override Card?

It is a common quest item used to access locked areas in Spireton, not a physical card or a separately purchased product. The item guide describes it as a way into certain buildings; the card can help you reach the terminal used to disable the area’s turrets, but you must still use that terminal. Game8’s item guide and its Spireton walkthrough cover its use.

How to get the Spireton Access Override Card

Game8 reports that the card is obtained through the Order faction quest route. Quest outcomes can depend on your choices, so treat this as a guide-reported route rather than a guarantee for every playthrough.

  1. In the Cloister quest sequence, pursue the Order route and complete A Study in Disruption for Artificer Laureate Enola Kraft.
  2. Complete Crash Course in Telemetry. Game8 notes that a decision in this quest affects access to the card.
  3. Finish An Equitable Arrangement, then speak with Presiding Bishop Ruth Basar to receive the card, according to Game8’s quest walkthrough.

What the card opens—and what it does not

Use the card on relevant locked doors in Spireton to enter buildings and reach useful areas, including the turret terminal. The guides also describe Lockpick checks as an alternative for particular doors. The card does not itself disable the turrets; reach and operate the terminal to do that.

Card or Lockpick: which route should you use?

Access route What the guides report Best fit
Spireton Access Override Card Obtained from Ruth Basar after the Order-linked quest sequence; opens relevant locked doors without meeting their Lockpick checks. Useful if you follow the reported Order route or do not meet the door’s Lockpick requirement.
Lockpick Game8’s walkthrough lists Lockpick 11 for one door and 17 for another; the applicable threshold depends on the building or entrance. Useful if your character meets the check and you want an alternative to obtaining the card.
Spireton Lift controls Separate from the card and door checks; the lift is restored from Archive controls during quest progression. Required for the lift itself, regardless of how you enter a building.

The Lockpick thresholds and quest route above come from third-party walkthroughs, not an official item database. Check the specific door and your quest choices in-game; the guides do not establish that every choice sequence awards the card.
