Mass Effect Hints
Notes
1 of 6: Thorian creepers aren't colonists, so you can kill all of the creepers.
2 of 6: Creepers that are hunched down and not moving can't be hurt until they "activate" and come after you, which usually (but not always) happens when you approach them.
3 of 6: You could knock out some of the colonists and kill the others to make things a bit easier, and to end up getting some of both types of morality points.
4 of 6: Another way to knock out infected colonists besides gas grenades is to sprint-run into them in order to knock them out.
5 of 6: That's dangerous, though, since it sometimes takes more than one melee attack to knock out a colonist, and you may take a lot of fire while doing it.
6 of 6: If you told your squad to leave the colonists alone so you could knock them out, they probably won't follow you very closely. You'll have to use the Move key to get them to catch up and help you kill creepers whenever you come across them.
