Mass Effect Hints
X57 Extras
1 of 5: Following are tips on three extra things on Asteroid X57 that have nothing to do with any of its assignments.
2 of 5: These things aren't marked on the area map, so check your radar for a "?" symbol when you get near them.
3 of 5: At the top of a mountain a ways almost directly east of the southern fusion torch is a small shelter. Inside it, you'll find an aid station, some radio controls you can use to pipe elevator music into your helmet (while you're close to the shelter), and some logs that you can examine for XP.
4 of 5: On a ridge that's almost exactly halfway between survey stations 2 and 3 (see the X57: Three Missing Engineers assignment), you'll find a body and a technician's kit next to a vehicle. Examine the body for XP, and raid the kit for an item.
5 of 5: In a valley a ways NE of the eastern fusion torch, you'll find a shelter that contains an aid station and some station logs. Read the logs to get another shelter that's a ways to the north marked on the area map, then drive up there in the Mako to find that it contains eight grenade storage containers.
