Mass Effect Hints
Destroy Geth Ship Claws
1 of 12: Drop down some rubble and raid the crate next to it, then move on down the next passage.
2 of 12: The geth in the next room you come to won't be caught unawares, so hang back and shoot them down cautiously.
3 of 12: There are two sets of stairs that lead to the upper level from that room.
4 of 12: The east stairs lead to a dead-end area with some krogans to kill, a container to open, a server node to get some XP from, and a console that's used for the "Feros: Data Recovery" optional assignment.
5 of 12: After you're done with all that, go back and use the other stairs to reach a different portion of the upper level.
6 of 12: Soon after passing a locked container, you'll come to a large room where you'll need to immediately take cover and fight some geth.
7 of 12: Clear out that room (and optionally get the "Investigate Facility" assignment), then go up the ramp to get another claw-related cinematic.
8 of 12: Just past that, crouch down so you can press up against the walkway's left railing for cover -- more geth in the room below will attack.
9 of 12: Finish them off, then search their room for a locked container, a tough-to-hack geth terminal that gives the "Geth Activities" optional assignment, and an easier-to-hack server node that'll give the "Investigate Samples" optional assignment. There's also a locked container in the small side area to the north.
10 of 12: Find the shuttle bay door control (marked with an X on the area map) and use it.
11 of 12: You'll learn that if the shuttle bay door is closed with a force of 31 to 34 PSI, it'll slam hard enough to tear through some serious metal. That might include geth dropship claws!
