Mass Effect 3 Hints
Apien Crest: Banner of the First Regiment
1 of 6: After getting the "Priority: Sur'Kesh" mission, visit the Citadel's Purgatory Bar area. Go up the first set of stairs in the VIP area and turn left, then go to the end of the walkway and turn right to overhear the conversation that gets you this mission.
2 of 6: Travel to the Apien Crest cluster, then move to the Castellus system and start scanning.
3 of 6: Note that the reapers are very sensitive to scans in this system, so you'll probably want to quicksave before you start scanning.
4 of 6: The banner you need is on the planet Digeris, which is a bit "down" from the sun.
5 of 6: Do a scan near that planet, then orbit the planet and scan it to find the Banner of the 1st Regiment artifact.
6 of 6: Return to the Turians in the Citadel's Purgatory Bar VIP area that you got this mission from. Talk to the officer in the group to get some credits, some rep points, and a war asset.
