Mass Effect 3 Hints
Data Cluster.
1 of 8: Move along the pathway and blast your way through a glowing code strand, then continue along the path. When you come to a spot that's next to a code string, look along it for a reaper code fragment that you can give to someone on the Citadel later.
2 of 8: Not far past that is another pathway-blocking orange code strand. Blast it until the pathway is unblocked, then see about freeing the data cluster from reaper control.
3 of 8: After that's done, use the "Navigational Assistance" key to get some intel, then watch the little holographic video before going back the way you came until you reach the start of a new pathway branch.
4 of 8: Follow the new pathway until you reach the next data cluster. It also has three glowing nodes on it that you'll need to blast out of existence.
5 of 8: After you get the third one, go back a short way to find the side pathway that'll take you over to a spot where the Geth VI is standing. Wait near it to get the previous objective again, then enter the access point to go back to this objective.
6 of 8: Move down the pathway until you encounter the next path-blocking code string, then figure out how to get rid of it.
7 of 8: The next path-blocking code string isn't self-replicating, so just blast it and move on to where you can start in on the glowing nodes that are attached to the next data cluster.
8 of 8: After the last cluster is freed, go back the way you came until you come across the Geth VI. Wait next to it until another access point opens up nearby, then enter it to get the next objective.
