Turian Ark: Not Dead Yet

Mission Type: Allies and Relationships

Prerequisite: Chapter 3; land on Havarl; complete “Helping Havarl’s Scientists”

Start Location: Havarl

Unlocking: Talk to Kiiran Dals after saving her scientists from Remnant stasis, or find the turian encampment.

Speak to Kiiran Dals

Havarl: Angaran HQ

Talk to Kirran Dals (1) after “Helping Havarl’s Scientists.” At the end of the conversation, she asks you to speak to Tovar about the turians. The turian ark has been missing since its arrival in Heleus. Turians wearing Ark Natanus uniforms have been spotted on Havarl. Find them to gain information about what happened to the ark.

Find the Turian Encampment

Follow the navpoint to a southern Havarl alleyway leading to the turian encampment (2), where you discover inhabitants in Natanus uniforms battling Roekaar Raiders and wildlife—namely, many Adhi, large lizard-like creatures.

Defend the Turians from the Roekaar

When you’ve eliminated all the wildlife, a Roekaar ship arrives behind you at the alley entrance. Replenish lost ammo, pivot, find cover, position your team behind cover, and defeat this assault, starting with their Sharpshooter. Watch the radar to make sure all enemies are eliminated, and then go speak with the turian leader.

Speak with the Turian Leader

Head back into the camp (2) and speak with the Spectre, Avitus Rix, special tactics and reconnaissance. He thanks you for your help with the Roekaar, explains what happened to the turian ark, and informs you that their Pathfinder, Macen, is still missing, along with most of their population. He knows the Pathfinder is alive since Macen’s SAM has not transferred to him. He gives you his info so you can call him when you hear anything regarding the whereabouts of his people or the Pathfinder.

Mission on Hold—But It Really Just Ended Like other B-stories that say they’re going on hold, this mission ends while the story continues under a different name. The story of the turian ark continues as “Turian Ark: Lost but Not Forgotten,” which starts when you receive information regarding the Ark Natanus survivors or debris. This happens after you visit Kadara and receive an email from Avitus Rix about rumors of Natanus debris on Elaaden.
