Mass Effect 3 Hints
Courtyard Combat Tips
1 of 7: To start with, shoot down the cannibals and marauders that are on the lower ground.
2 of 7: Go down the stairs to the lower ground to get more enemies to appear in the distance, then sprint back up the stairs and use the railing for cover again while shooting at them. (If that's too far away from the targets, go down the stairs and take cover against a nearby piece of rubble.)
3 of 7: Move ahead to the planters for cover next, then on to the large central fountain. After you've killed all the enemies you can from there, move on past the left edge of the fountain to find a med kit.
4 of 7: Go up the nearest steps and use the large black metal wall for cover during the next round of shooting. After it's over, move slowly past the black wall until a powerful banshee creature shows up with some more marauders.
5 of 7: Quickly retreat back to the black wall, and take cover behind its small stick-out wall section. Blast the banshee with everything you have, and you'll hopefully be able to kill it before it can close to melee with you.
6 of 7: Another way is to go to the other (left) end of the wall, then turn right and go straight forward to find a Hydra Missile Launcher heavy weapon. You can use it to kill the banshee in one shot, but note that one shot is all you've got. (If you fire at the banshee as soon as it appears, you may be able to kill it and all of its marauders with the missile.)
7 of 7: After it's down, all you'll have to do to finish up is kill off any remaining marauders.
