'''Annex Ridge''' was a [[Banished]] research facility established on [[Zeta Halo]] during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]]. Its main purpose was to study, store and transport the mysterious [[Totem ring]]s scattered across the Ring's surface. The [[Jiralhanae]] commander [[Zeretus]] was in charge of the outpost.{{Ref/Reuse|wftp}}

In late May of 2560, [[John-117]] discovered the outpost and attacked it in order to stop the Banished from learning more about Zeta Halo. He destroyed the facility's fuel silo, causing a chain reaction that destroyed a nearby [[Barukaza Workshop siege-hauler]] before it could transport several Ring artifacts offsite.{{Ref/Quest|Id=Annex Ridge|HI|Reformation|Annex Ridge}}
