Mass Effect Hints
Once I have it installed, how can I get started on it?
1 of 5: Any time after getting command of the Normandy and before landing on Ilos, use the Normandy's galaxy map to travel to the Exodus Cluster. (It'll be marked with an "Asteroid X57" label.)
2 of 5: In that cluster, go to the Asgard system (which is also labeled "Asteroid X57").
3 of 5: Choose to land on the asteroid labeled "Asteroid X57," which is close to Terra Nova.
4 of 5: After you choose your squad and land on the asteroid in the Mako, you can return to the Normandy and go do other things before finishing up despite the emergency situation.
5 of 5: However, it would be best if you wait to come until you have a strong enough character to finish everything in one visit. (I recommend a level 20+ character who's gotten his specialization class from doing the UNC: Rogue VI assignment.
