Mass Effect 3 Hints
How can I free up this data cluster?
1 of 5: That last code strand you blasted is attached to the nearby data cluster with a large glowing node.
2 of 5: Those nodes are what's keeping the data cluster under reaper control. You'll need to destroy all of them to free up the cluster.
3 of 5: Blast the nearby node until it totally vanishes, then move along the pathway until you come to another glowing code strand that's connected to a glowing node.
4 of 5: Even though it isn't blocking the pathway, blast the strand, then blast the node until it vanishes.
5 of 5: Move along until you come to a path-blocking strand that's attached to the third and final glowing node. As before, blast the strand first, then the node until it vanishes.
