Mass Effect 3 Hints
Operations Center.
1 of 8: Move forward to reach a console with a Sniper Rifle Enhanced Scope mod on it, plus a "GARDIAN Battery" terminal. Optionally examine the terminal, then run along the walkway until you come to a gap.
2 of 8: Use the "bridge controls" terminal that's near the gap, then stay in your starting cover while shooting the geth that appear ahead. Note that one of them is a rocket trooper, so watch out for his rockets.
3 of 8: After finishing them off, move down to where they were to get more to appear, then sprint back to your previous cover position and snipe at them from there.
4 of 8: Go down the ladder that's in the back of their area, then move forward to where you can take cover against the edge of a large console. Shoot the unaware geth trooper in the area ahead, followed by the others that run to the attack.
5 of 8: Move along the walkway slowly, watching for trip mines that'll explode if you get too close to them (or shoot them out). Past the third mine, look for some geth data to salvage, then go through the nearby door.
6 of 8: Get the Archon Visor from that room and the Geth Pulse Rifle and ammo from the next room. You'll probably want to equip the pulse rifle if you don't already have an assault rifle that you've upgraded and customized.
7 of 8: When you open the next door, you'll get a cut-scene followed by a combat with several geth hunters. They'll all advance on your position, some coming on the left and some on the right, so use your best powers and weapons to take them down as quickly as you can. When they're cloaked, look for the telltale shimmer that shows where they are.
8 of 8: If any of them make it to your position, you'll have to leave cover and frantically sprint and roll around to try and avoid their attacks. Once you kill them all, you'll get the next objective.
