Mass Effect Hints
XP and Credits Tip
1 of 3: The higher your character's level is, the more XP and credits you'll get from finding each of the collectible items.
2 of 3: Due to that, you'll probably want to wait awhile to start collecting things, at least until you're level 20.
3 of 3: Probably the best way to do it is to finish the The Citadel game section, and then do all of the Early UNC Assignments and Squad Assignments. Only after you've finished all of those (and UNC: Rogue VI) should you get serious about collecting things.
