Mass Effect 3 Hints

Defend Lieutenant Victus.

  • 1 of 5: Stay on the higher concrete floor that you start on and send your squad down farther. Cerberus troopers are going to be advancing on your position and trying to shoot Victus.
  • 2 of 5: Don't bother trying to find cover. Keep moving left and right, looking for targets. Any troopers that get near your position are your top priority.
  • 3 of 5: When an atlas mech arrives, immediately drop down and go to the right end of the wall that's directly ahead. Shoot the altas from there until it's destroyed, using your First Aid power if any of your squad goes down.
  • 4 of 5: As soon as the atlas is taken care of, cover-climb back up to where you were and be ready to quickly shoot down troopers that come within range of Victus. (This would be a good time to hit the "Order Rally" key to recall your squad if they're not both very close by.)
  • 5 of 5: After you finish off all of the enemy troops, you'll get the mission-ending cut-scene.
