Mass Effect Hints

Merc Combat Tips

  • 1 of 5: Sprint-run back north to the entry room as soon as combat begins, using the area map if you need to see which way to go.
  • 2 of 5: You'll seem to be safe there at first, but Lord Darius and several of his toughest mercs will eventually charge into the room after you.
  • 3 of 5: This is very bad, since you can't use the exit console to leave the building, so you may have to run around them and back into the main room to avoid getting killed.
  • 4 of 5: Be ready to use your Unity ability and medi-gel to quickly get squad members back into fighting shape after they fall.
  • 5 of 5: If you can manage to kill all of the enemies, you'll get a whole ton of XP and credits.
