Mass Effect Hints

Battlemaster Combat Tips

  • 1 of 8: As soon as you regain control, run up onto the room's elevated outer ridge.
  • 2 of 8: Don't try to take cover in any one spot for long, but stay mobile so you can dodge more fire.
  • 3 of 8: The krogan battlemaster will probably be the last enemy standing, since he can regenerate health and shielding fairly fast.
  • 4 of 8: Attack him very cautiously, preferably from the opposite side of the room using a sniper rifle.
  • 5 of 8: If he ever charges at you, be sure to retreat immediately, as his melee attacks will kill you *very* quickly.
  • 6 of 8: He likes to hide behind things and fire at you, so it's not too hard to get to where you can hit him with the sniper rifle while he's unable to hit you (because his fire is hitting an obstruction). You may also want to try throwing a grenade or two near where he's standing if the sniper rifle isn't your thing.
  • 7 of 8: Just watch out for his battle charge when his health gets low. Maybe switch to the shotgun or assault rifle, and order your squad to a position ahead of you so he'll attack them while you fire on him.
  • 8 of 8: If the battle isn't over after you kill the battlemaster, look for a scaredy-geth hiding next to a large crate near the door they entered through.
