Mass Effect 3 Hints
What else can I do on the Citadel now?
1 of 11: In the hospital area, check the Sirta Supplies terminal for a new medi-gel capacity upgrade. If you didn't already get the previous upgrade via the Normandy's procurement terminal earlier, you can buy it now, too.
2 of 11: Go through the medical decontamination chamber, then straight to the back of the area to find two doctors arguing. Support either one of them to get two rep points.
3 of 11: In the Presidium Commons area, look to the right of the Elkoss Combine Arsenal Supplies counter to find a bank teller talking to a salarian. Talk to the bank teller to get a couple of rep points and a war asset update. (Due to a glitch, you may be able to talk to the bank teller a second time and get two more rep points.)
4 of 11: Go over to the Apollo's Cafe counter to find the cafe owner arguing with a frustrated C-Sec officer. Support either one of them to get two rep points and a war asset update.
5 of 11: There are two merchants arguing behind the Aegohr Munitions store counter. Support the worried merchant if you want paragon points, or the angry merchant if you want renegade points.
6 of 11: Inside the C-Sec outpost is another argument you can take sides on. Support the patient C-Sec officer for paragon points, or the angry C-Sec officer for renegade points.
7 of 11: Go to the Purgatory Bar area, then look for Joker leaning against the bar counter that's on the middle-floor area. Talk to him about his relationship with EDI to get some rep points.
8 of 11: Go to the top floor and find Cortez at the left end of the long bar counter. Talk to him to get some more rep points.
9 of 11: Finish all of the new hub missions that don't require you to leave the Citadel, then return to the embassy area and check your Spectre Terminal for several new messages. The ones titled "Surveillance Authorization," "Medical Supplies," and "Authorize Civilian Militia" can be authorized to get war asset updates.
10 of 11: To get another one, go to the Normandy dock area and find a sergeant talking to a private near the waiting area. Keep leaving the area and returning (or quicksaving and quickrestoring) to get more of their conversation until the sergeant says she'll try to get the private reassigned to fight reapers instead of Cerberus. You'll then have a "Transfer Authorization: Private Talavi" message on the Spectre Terminal that you can authorize for a war asset update.
11 of 11: For yet another one, go to the Purgatory Bar's top floor, where a turian and a human woman are talking. Do the leave-and-return routine until the woman refuses to help the turian steal medi-gel, then check the Spectre Terminal for a "Civilian Consultant Authorization" message that you can authorize for a war asset update.
