Mass Effect 3 Hints

Geth VI.

  • 1 of 7: Stay in your starting cover, and move one of your squad members to a spot past the small ramp that you're at the bottom of. You don't want any geth ambushing you from that direction.
  • 2 of 7: If you haven't seen a super-tough geth prime by the time the other geth stop coming, go take cover against the railing that's just to the left of the lift you rode up in. You should be able to shoot the prime from there, though note that he'll probably have a turret set up near him.
  • 3 of 7: After the prime is shot down, return to your previous cover and wait for more geth to trickle in a few at a time. If that doesn't work, return to your spot next to the lift and shoot from there.
  • 4 of 7: When the second geth prime shows up, he may be down on the lower floor in a spot where he can shoot you in your original cover position. If so, take cover against the railing to the right of the lift and shoot him from there.
  • 5 of 7: After the second prime is dead, move along the upper walkway until you come to a ladder. Climb down it and move forward to get the next objective.
  • 6 of 7: After you return to this objective, move forward and jump the new bridge gap at its narrow point (on the right).
  • 7 of 7: Sprint up the undamaged walkway until you reach the Geth VI and get the mission-ending cut-scenes, followed by the next three missions.
