Mass Effect 3 eGuide Walkthrough Act 1

Act 1- Priority: Tuchanka

The genophage cure is a success, but it must be synthesized and dispersed across all of Tuchanka using the Shroud tower. Land on Tuchanka and get Eve safely to the tower.

SPEAK WITH SPECIALIST TRAYNOR

Stop by the CIC and visit with Specialist Traynor. If you’re interested in potentially sparking romantic interest, now is a good time to show interest in how she’s acclimating to the Normandy.

If you saved the Rachni during “Attican Traverse: Missing Scouts,” you can also check your private terminal for a message from Admiral Hackett.

He sent you an e-mail about the Rachni and their strange behavior. Read the e-mail, then go speak to Specialist Traynor again to get some insight on the Rachni’s communication methods.

SPEAK WITH LIARA

You can also visit with Liara before this next mission. She’s been hard at work trying to recruit new engineers to help build the Crucible (what the Council is now calling the Prothean weapon).

If you’ve also completed other missions in between, there might be some available upgrades you can purchase at the Intel Terminal.

Finally, check out the Shadow Terminal to get some intel on key players in the war. Liara has e-mails from everyone from Admiral Anderson to Admiral Hackett.

The conversation with Liara quickly turns personal, so be mindful of your responses if you want to pursue a romance with her.

SPEAK WITH DR. MORDIN AND THE KROGANS

Stop by the medical bay to find Dr. Solus speaking with Eve, the female krogan. When Wreav arrives, the conversation gets a bit heated. Either support Wreav or talk him down to generate Renegade or Paragon points.

VISIT THE CITADEL

Now is also a good time to complete lingering Citadel missions. If you left any missions incomplete or have items/intel to turn in to people at the Citadel, stop by and complete them.

The experience points and potential war assets are great to have sooner rather than later.

Now is an especially good time to complete Citadel Quests since it will undergo a massive change in the next mission. The next time you try to land at the Citadel, you will be drawn immediately into the next mission.
