Mass Effect: Andromeda Collector's Edition eGuide Secondary Ops

Dismantled

Mission Type: Heleus Assignment: Elaaden

Prerequisite: Must have interrogated Vehn Terev in “Hunting the Archon”

Start Location: Elaaden

Unlocking: Starts when you approach one of three Remnant sites.

Investigate the Remnant Site

Elaaden

SAM has identified sites where scavengers could find Remnant cores, and has modified your omni-tool to disable the cores and prevent them from reacting and becoming dangerously unstable.

Investigate the Three Remnant Sites

The Remnant sites involved in these quests are easily recognizable. They’re teeming with scavengers, wildlife, and Remnant. There are massive amounts of pillars and Scourge pockets. First things first, destroy all the scavengers and Remnant. After you complete the first site, the next two sites are given navpoints on the map.

Make the Remnant Core Inert

Climb and jump across the dark Remnant pillars (the ones that look like they’re wearing computer circuit board camouflage). Find the pillars that lead to a Remnant core, and then deactivate it. The hacking time is lengthy, so make sure you’ve cleared enemies that could harm you while you’re hacking. More Remnant spawn after you deactivate the first core. Two of the sites feature two cores each; one site has three cores.

Site 1: North of the Paradise

This site has two Remnant cores, both of which are fairly easy to reach. One core (A) is practically on the ground. Numerous pillar steps allow you to reach the higher core . You face Remnant Observers and Raiders at this site, and likely a Fiend as well.

Site 2: Paradise Sands

At this site you confront Adhi, Remnant Observers, scavenger Pariahs, and Anarchists. This site contains three Remnant cores, one of which is hidden. Jump up and deactivate the first core . Doing so raises pillars next to it and allows you to reach a core that comes up with them. Jump from the second core over to the pillars leading to the third core.

Site 3: Paradise Sands

Here you encounter Adhi, a Taurg, and a Fiend; dropships delivering scavengers; and Narisse, accompanied by Sharpshooters and Raiders. One of the two Remnant cores (F) at this site is low, a couple of pillar jumps from the ground. The other (G) is more of a challenge and requires multiple pillar jumps, one of which sends you through the Scourge. After deactivating this core, run and jump to a pillar (4) to reach a loot container.
