Act 2 – Priority: Horizon — Mass Effect 3 eGuide

Cerberus may be using the Sanctuary facility on Horizon as a cover for secret activity. Land on Horizon and search for clues about Cerberus at Sanctuary.

MISSION BRIEFING

Battlegrounds: The Sanctuary’s secret testing facility is comprised of several long, split halls and cluttered with machinery, tanks, desks, and debris for cover.

Aside from the landing zone where you’ll encounter a rival sniper, sniper-proficient players will rarely find an opportunity to use their long-range skills despite the facility’s long hallways.

The facility is full of all types of Reapers, ranging from Husks to Banshees, so you’ll have to use all of your powers and tactical skills equally in order to survive.

When encountering high-level Reaper groups, like Brutes and Banshees, focus on the Brutes first, since they are slower and thus easier targets.

Consequence Overview: As things begin to filter down to a final encounter, all chances to shape the war, gain War Assets, and accrue more Paragon/Renegade points become more and more scarce.

There is only one option for Paragon/Renegade points during this mission. As the final moments of the mission unfold, you’ll have the opportunity to either calmly talk down your prey or threaten him into complying.

CHECK YOUR E-MAIL

You’ve got plenty of motivation to find the Illusive Man, but if you need some more, stop by your private terminal and check your e-mail. You’ve got a very special e-mail that might help light a fire.

SPEAK TO TALI

Stop by the elevator on the crew deck to speak to Tali. Share your thoughts on recent events and let off some steam. She has some words of encouragement that you may want to hear before the next mission.

If you’d like to get straight to the next mission, skip to the “Investigate Sanctuary” section later in this guide.

SPEAK TO LIARA

The occupation of Thessia has been hard on Liara. Stop by her office and visit with her to get her thoughts on the situation.

Listen to her and act on the Paragon decision point in this conversation to ease her guilt.

SPEAK TO ENGINEER ADAMS AND KAIDAN/ASHLEY

Engineer Adams and Kaidan (or Ashley) may also have some insight to share on Liara’s current condition. Stop by the engineering deck and have a chat with them.

SPEAK TO ADMIRAL ANDERSON

Before setting out on the next mission, go to the vid-com station in the war room and speak with Admiral Anderson. He’s got some words of encouragement should you need them.
