Geth Combat Tips
1 of 7: Before you spring the trap, look around for ways to make a quick getaway.
2 of 7: For instance, to the east, there's a sort of path leading away between two large hills.
3 of 7: Try facing east while backing slowly down toward the beacon.
4 of 7: As soon as the geth appear, drive east as fast as you can until you're over a ridge and out of their sight.
5 of 7: You can then turn around and peek over the ridge long enough to shoot some geth, but be sure to retreat before their fire can knock your shields down very far.
6 of 7: Wait for your shields to build back up, then repeat the process. Hopefully, no geth will catch up to you at a bad moment. (If so, either quickly blast them or try to gain some distance.)
7 of 7: When you can't see any more geth from your ridgetop, drive back out there and all around the beacon to see if there are any more to kill.
