Mass Effect 3 Hints
Defend the Female Krogan.
1 of 13: Move forward and climb a ladder, then go through another door. After you round the corner, sprint forward to the first wall section and take cover there.
2 of 13: Stay there and peek around the wall's left side for shooting opportunities until one of your squad members says it's clear, then stay there some more until the next wave of enemies shows up.
3 of 13: After you kill them off, look on the right side of the area for a Shotgun Blade Attachment mod on a shelf. Go down to the other end of the area to find a medical station, then go past it to find a door and a credits-giving datapad on a nearby bench.
5 of 13: Look around for ammo and a credits-giving datapad near the weird dogs' cages, then use the "Quarantine Checkpoint 1" terminal that's near the krogan's pod to send it on to the next checkpoint.
6 of 13: Shoot down the two troopers in the shuttle from your cover against the console, then go through the big wall hole and turn left. Wait there for your squad to take down a centurion, then move ahead to a planter and take cover.
7 of 13: Finish off the next batch of enemy troopers from there (or from back at the wall hole), then look for ammo and a Pistol High Caliber Barrel mod as you go down to the other end of the area. Past a door and some stairs, you'll encounter another Cerberus squad.
8 of 13: Look for some spare parts to salvage on the right side of the area, then go down to the other end and use the terminal to the right of the door to open it. Loot the medical station that's past the door, then move on to find some ammo near another door.
9 of 13: Open it, then hide to the left of it while shooting the Cerberus guys in the next room. (Note that some will be shield-carrying guardians, so hopefully you have someone with you who can use the Singularity power against them.)
10 of 13: Move across the lower floor to find Armax Arsenal Greaves on a desk, then go past that to get the next objective. As soon as you finish it, sprint back to the area with the krogan pod and take cover next to the wall section that's directly across from it.
11 of 13: Quickly kill off the Cerberus troopers who appear nearby, using the Scorpion pistol (if you equipped it) to blow them up. After they're all dead, use the terminal near the krogan pod to send it to the final checkpoint, then stay in your starting cover position while shooting the enemy troops who rush in.
12 of 13: Finish them off, then go through the door that's down at their end of the room. Past that, jump a gap and climb a ladder, then turn right and go up some steps to enter the final combat zone.
