N7: Endangered Research Station

The magnetic shielding that protects the human colony on Sinmara is failing. If the shielding goes offline, the entire colony below is vulnerable to its sun’s solar flares. Save the colony by reactivating the shields.

Activating the Magnetic Shield

[001]

There are no enemies in this assignment, so you perform this mission without any squadmates.

[002]

After landing on the shield platform, move across the sky walkway [001] , pausing to salvage some broken generator parts.

Then approach the station control terminal and lower the doors up to the main platform [002] .

The system must be turned on in a specific order by powering up components in the correct order to effectively jump-start the shields.

Spoils of War > Resources > Broken Generator > Salvage > 2,000 Palladium

[003]

The control switch in the center of the platform is the key to the system [003] . Every time you access the switch, you redirect power to one of the three systems that make up the shield.

First, access the switch to run power to the shield generator, which is on your right. Turn on the shield generator.

Because the shield is not up, you must engage the coolant system so it does not overheat.

[004]

The coolant system is to the left. Access the control switch to power up the cooling system. Once the coolant system has been activated, return to the switch and direct power to the shield controls.

Bypass the console to reactivate the shields and save the colony [004] .
