Mass Effect Assignments: how to start every side quest & assignment

While you’ll be doing a lot of running and gunning across the Galaxy, Mass Effect is still a traditional RPG in many ways. That naturally means a whole bunch of side quests - or Assignments,  as they’re known officially in the game.

As with the various character classes, abilities and class specializations in Mass Effect 1, the assignments featured are pretty typical RPG tropes - various quests that offer up rewards like XP, items, gear, paragon or renegade alignment points, and of course new and unique storylines. Completing the majority of the game nets you the ‘Completionist’ trophy/achievement - so if you’re going for that, you’ll need to tidy up the majority of the assignments.

One advantage of the branching, multi-game narrative of Mass Effect is that several of these side quests and assignments can also feature choices that have consequences in Mass Effect 2 and 3 - if you do the quest.

On this page, we’ll list every side quest assignment in Mass Effect, plus where to start them and any other key information completionists will need to know - broken up by each of Mass Effect’s core locations:

  • Citadel Assignments, part 1

Normandy Squadmate Assignments

  • Citadel Assignments, part 2
  • Story Planet Assignments on Feros, Noveria & Virmire
  • Citadel Assignments, part 3
  • DLC Assignments
  • Collectible assignments

Uncharted World Assignments

Citadel Assignments Part 1

These assignments are available from your very first visit to the Citadel very early in the game, though some assignments unlock gradually as more of the Citadel becomes available to you. 

  • Citadel: Asari Consort: visit the Consort’s Chambers on the Presidium and speak to Nelyna and then Sha’ira.
  • Citadel: Doctor Michel: head to the Lower Wards Med Clinic again any time after taking down Fist in Chora’s Den as part of the main story. 
  • This quest evolves into a ‘second part’ called ‘Citadel: Doctor Michel is Safe’
  • Citadel: Homecoming: once Tali has joined your party, speak to Samesh Bhatia near the embassy area commons area, not far from where there’s an Avina terminal.
  • This quest leads to several follow-up quests as the storyline twists and turns, including Citadel: Jahleed's Secret ,   Citadel: Jahleed and Chorban , followed by one of a number of finales such as Citadel: Jahleed Returns Materials , Citadel: Jahleed Arrested , Citadel: Jahleed Set Free . 
  • Citadel: Presidium Prophet: after the council reject your claims about Eden Prime and the Citadel: Expose Saren main quest begins, find a C-Sec Officer and Hanar on the Presidium in the wide open area near the Citadel Tower. 
  • Citadel: Reporter's Request: as soon as you can access the Upper Wards (once you’re working to expose Saren), find Emily Wong near the stairway to Flux. Alternatively, picking up the OSD in Fist’s office in Chora’s Den also retroactively gives you the quest. 
  • This quest evolves into Citadel: Rita's Sister and Chellick and Citadel: Rita's Sister is Safe as you progress it.
  • Citadel: Scan the Keepers: this assignment is dropped into your lap; after meeting the council, a Salarian is right in your path, fiddling with a keeper. A squadmate will even point them out. Chat to the Salarian, Chorban, to start the quest. If you’ve already started the Citadel: Jahleed’s Fears quest before this one, Chorban will move to the Lower Markets, where you can still get the quest from him. We’ve got a guide to the Keeper Locations to get you through this quest.
  • Depending on choices you make, this assignment will change into either Citadel: Schells' Scanner Given Away or Citadel: Schells has his Data .
  • Citadel: Signal Tracking: visit Flux Casino on the Lower Wards and examine a ‘Suspicious Gambling Machine’ in the upstairs corner to start this quest. We’ve got a guide on the signal tracking locations if you need help.
  • Citadel: The Fan: you’ll find Conrad Verner standing in the Markets area of the Upper Wards. There are three stages to this assignment; you’ll need to visit Verner when you first gain access to the wards, then again after becoming a Spectre, and one last time after completing any of the three main story worlds.
  • As it progresses, this quest changes name to Citadel: Xeltan Convinced .
  • Missing Person / UNC: Privateers: get this assignment by speaking to Garoth in the Citadel Tower after your second meeting with the council. Alternatively, it can be received by hacking a computer terminal on Noveria. It will also automatically trigger if you find and scan the MSV Majesty in the Horse Head Nebula.

Once you’re back on the Normandy after your first Citadel Visit, you’ll have the chance to talk to your squadmates during down time aboard the ship. If you keep talking to them, three of your alien squad members will have requests for you.

What squadmates have to say changes each time you complete a main story mission; you may have to complete one or two story missions before they give you their request and the associated assignment .

  • Garrus: Find Dr. Saleon: keep talking to Garrus and he’ll gradually reveal information about this C-Sec case gone wrong, which eventually gives you a location to head to.
  • Tali and the Geth / Tali’s Pilgrimage: Tali will tell you about her pilgrimage, but this assignment only pops when you clear a Geth Base on Solcrum as part of UNC: Geth Incursions. There’s a terminal you can interact with in that planet’s Geth Stronghold, and you can then gift that data to Tali aboard Normandy.
  • Wrex: Family Armor: keep talking to Wrex and talking about his past; he will ask you to retrieve his family armor, which was stolen. Alternatively, you can find the assignment goal on Tuntau in the Phoenix System of Argos Rho; finding the armor first gives you the quest, then you can turn it in by talking to Wrex. We recommend, for various reasons, that you do this quest before heading to Virmire .

mass_effect_assignments_side_quests_list.png

Citadel Assignments Part 2

These assignments will be available the next time you visit the Citadel after completing any one of the three ‘core’ story planet missions of Therum, Noveria, or Feros .

Three of the quests that unlock this point are a branch based on your pre-service history character background - each background gets one exclusive side quest. The other three are available to all.

  • Citadel: I Remember Me: only available if your Shepard has the Colonist background. You’ll automatically get a call about this quest after arriving on the Citadel and using the elevator from the docking bay.
  • Citadel: Old Friends: only available if your Shepard has the Earthborn background. Find Finch in Chora’s Den.
  • Citadel: Old, Unhappy, Far-Off Things: only available if your Shepard has the Spacer background. Talk to Zabaleta in the Wards Access corridor area.
  • Citadel: Family Matter: near the Presidium financial district and Barla Von’s office, there's two people audibly arguing. Insert yourself into their conversation.
  • Citadel: Planting a Bug: you must have completed Citadel: Reporter’s Request for Emily Wong. If you have, find Wong in the Citadel Tower to get this continuation.
  • Citadel: Snap Inspection: this will automatically occur as you step off the Normandy when it first arrives back at the Citadel. 
  • Citadel: The Fourth Estate: the reporter Khalisah Al-Jilani can be found at the bottom of the elevator from the docking bay; talk to her to take on this verbally-charged assignment.

Story Planet Assignments: Feros, Noveria, & Virmire

Mass Effect’s handful of story-critical planets also have a few assignments of their own - though it’s only a few for each planet, and Therum actually has no side quests at all, being a much more straightforward affair. Here’s the quests you can expect on each planet:

Noveria Assignments:

  • Noveria: Espionage: as you explore the port in Noveria, you’ll be approached by an Asari named Mallene Calis, giving you this side quest. If you agree to help her, the quest continues. If you refuse, it is marked as completed.
  • Noveria: Smuggling: there’s a Hanar Merchant named Opold on Noveria, in the port area. Chat to it and it’ll ask for your help smuggling an item.

Feros Assignments:

  • Feros: Data Recovery: when you’re in the Mako heading from Zhu’s Hope to the ExoGeni facility, you can stop and head into ruins - speak to the scientists hiding within. 
  • Feros: Geth in the Tunnels: after speaking to Fai Dan as part of the main story and then dealing with some Geth, speak to him again. You can also get the quest by heading into the tunnels and blowing up the transmitter.
  • Feros: Power Cells: once you’ve met Fai Dan in Zhu’s Hope, talk to May O’Connell, who hangs out near the area entrance.
  • Feros: Varren Meat: once you’ve free reign to look around Zhu’s Hope, talk to Davin Reynolds.
  • Feros: Water Restoration: find and talk to Macha Doyle inside the Zhu’s Hope colony.

Virmire Assignments:

  • Virmire: Assisting Kirrahe's Team & Virmire: Wrex and the Genophage : both unmissable quests that will pop part-way into the Virmire mission - with the Wrex mission only happening if you recruited him. We’ve got a full guide to the choices on Virmire that helps explain the decisions you’re making here.

Citadel Assignments Part 3

While you can go back and forth to the Citadel as much as you like, these assignments will be made available when the story takes you back to the Citadel and for a brief period you can’t leave there. 

  • Citadel: Our Own Worst Enemy: once Captain Anderson asks you to meet him in Flux but before you do go to join him, talk to Charles Saracino, who is leading a group of protestors. 
  • Citadel: Negotiator's Request: once Captain Anderson asks you to meet him in Flux, you’ll be able to talk to Mr. Keeler near the entrance to Flux to get this assignment.

DLC Assignments: Bring Down the Sky & Pinnacle Station

The DLC for Mass Effect adds two new locations with associated story missions - Asteroid X57 and Pinnacle Station. Note that Pinnacle Station is only available in the original releases of the game, not the Legendary Edition remaster . Bring Down The Sky is available in both.

Bring Down the Sky / Asteroid X57 Assignments:

  • X57: Bring Down the Sky: simply land on the asteroid; this is the main story mission.
  • X57: Avoid the Blasting Caps: will be introduced to you over comms when you turn off the first fusion torch.
  • X57: Missing Engineers: either find one of the engineers out on the Asteroid or speak to Simon Atwell later in the main quest.

Pinnacle Station Assignments: 

  • Pinnacle Station: Combat Missions: visit Pinnacle Station. Talk to Admiral Ahern, then Ochren. 
  • Pinnacle Station: Convoy: clear Admiral Ahren’s special scenario to get this quest.
  • Pinnacle Station: Vidinos: beat the high score of a challenge to start this quest.

Galactic Collectible Assignments

Each of these five assignments relate to various resources that can be found on the uncharted worlds you can land the Mako on through the galaxy as presented in Mass Effect. Each of these quests automatically begins the first time that you pick up one of these resources on any uncharted world.

Keep in mind that in most of these cases, there are more of these resources to be found than required to finish each quest. Aside from some cash and XP, there is no bonus to finding ‘extra’ resources.

  • UNC: Prothean Data Discs
  • UNC: Turian Insignias
  • UNC: Valuable Minerals
  • UNC: Locate Signs of Battle
  • UNC: Asari Writings

mass_effect_unc_side_quests_assignments.png

These assignments make up the bulk of the side quests in the game - relatively random encounters you can have out in space while exploring the galaxy.

Most of these quests can be acquired in multiple ways - either through stumbling on the quest location while exploring a planet, through hacking computers and terminals, through overheard news reports and banter, or even through distress signals. Many of these quests have multiple names depending on how you first acquire them - so we bundle each quest together with its multiple monikers below.

  • UNC: Asari Diplomacy / Mercenaries: after completing one story planet, talk to Nassana Dantius in the lounge area of the Citadel’s Presidium embassies area. Alternatively, the quest automatically begins if you assault a merc base on Sharjila in the Macedon system.
  • UNC: Colony of the Dead / Investigate Samples: hack a terminal in the ExoGeni building on Feros - or go to Chasca in the Matano system and enter one of the planet’s research stations.
  • UNC: Dead Scientists / Doctor at Risk: find a clue on a terminal on Noveria, or get it automatically when you first enter the Newton system.
  • UNC: Derelict Freighter: any time after finishing the story mission on Feros, find this ship drifting in the Caspian System of the Maroon Sea Cluster, hidden in an asteroid belt. 
  • UNC: Distress Call / Unusual Readings: hack the computer in Udina’s office on the Citadel, or go to Metgos in the Argos Rho cluster’s Hydra system.
  • UNC: Espionage Probe / Investigate Shipments: simply take the Normandy to the Voyager Cluster’s Amazon system.
  • UNC: ExoGeni Facility / Investigate Facility: obtain the quest by unearthing a transmission while on Feros, or get the assignment by landing on Nodacrux in the Maroon Sea cluster.
  • UNC: Geth Incursions / Geth Activities: acquired by hacking a Geth terminal on Feros or terminal on Virmire, but it’s more easily obtained by visiting the Armstrong Nebula, where it’ll be given to you on arrival.
  • UNC: Hostage: you’ll get a message from Admiral Hackett the first time you enter the Farinata System of the Hades Gamma cluster.
  • UNC: Hostile Takeover / A Person of Interest: either talk to Helena Blake in the Citadel Presidium Financial District after becoming a Spectre, or decrypt a terminal in C-Sec Academy.
  • UNC: Major Kyle / Strange Transmission: unlocked by hacking various terminals on Feros, the Citadel, or Noveria. Alternatively, navigate to the Century system of the Hawking Eta cluster to get it automatically.
  • UNC: Missing Marines / UNC: Cerberus / UNC: Hades' Dogs: after becoming a Spectre, speak to Admiral Kahoku in the Citadel Tower to get the Missing Marines assignment. Alternatively, take Normandy to Edolus in the Artemis Tau cluster to get the assignment that way. Once Missing Marines is completed, UNC: Cerberus triggers when you next use the galaxy map, and that quest leads directly to UNC: Hades’ Dogs. 
  • UNC: Listening Post Alpha / UNC: Listening Post Theta / UNC: Depot Sigma-23: after completing Noveria, go to the Styx Theta cluster. Enter the Erebus system to pick up a distress signal.
  • UNC: Lost Freighter: locate the missing ship in the Gemini Sigma cluster’s Ming System. 
  • UNC: Lost Module: simply enter the Hercules system in the Attican Beta cluster to be given the assignment. 
  • UNC: Missing Survey Team: commonly overheard in Citadel elevators. Alternatively, just go to the planet Trebin in the Hades Gamma cluster’s Antaeus system.
  • UNC: Privateers / Missing Person: talk to Garoth on the Citadel Tower after becoming a Spectre. Alternatively, find and scan the MSV Majesty in the  Horse Head Nebula. It’s near the planet Xawin.
  • UNC: Rogue VI: once you reach a certain level, Admiral Hackett will call you to give you this assignment the next time you travel to a new system. This assignment is how you unlock Shepard’s specialization class .

Finally, there are two assignments that are exclusive to different moralities. They only trigger if you've amassed a certain amount of Paragon or Renegade points, and are themed around what each morality axis is good at:

  • UNC: Besieged Base:  Admiral Hackett will contact you when you use the Galaxy Map once you qualify, which will require at least 80% of Paragon points.
  • UNC: The Negotiation:  Admiral Hackett will contact you when you use the Galaxy Map once you qualify, which will require at least 80% Renegade points.

Look next to the planet Xawin for a ship that you can scan, that will let you land on Xawin.

EDIT: Curse you highpass...curse you and your fast fingers...

I do apologise...

http://es.geocities.com/seccion_9/imag/fingers.jpg

I can't remember if the ship's inhabited, although it'll certainly lead you to a fight.

HUZZAH! I know this is off topic but i don't feel like making a new thread for this question =P Do you know if Chemical rounds from my pistol kill someone if it counts as a pistol kill still?

As long as they die from your pistol shots, it doesn't matter what ammo you use. Now go forth and disintegrate.

Morality Assignments

This page of IGN's Mass Effect wiki guide is all about the Morality Assignment Side-Quests. These are a pair of Assignments that only unlock once Shepard has filled up a certain amount of either the Paragon or Renegade Morality bars. Read below for all the details!

Morality Assignments Explained

  • UNC: Besieged Base
  • UNC: The Negotiation

Morality Worlds Banner - Cropped.png

Morality Assignments are unique among Mass Effect's Assignments in that they do not unlock until you've filled 80% of a Morality Bar. If you want to unlock both, then whichever Morality Assignment you hadn't unlocked yet will not do so until you reach 90% on its required Morality Bar.

Once you've met one of their requirements, then you'll receive the associated Assignment from Admiral Hackett once you travel to a new system. If you only intend to explore the respective world, then that will unlock when the associated bar is filled to 75%.

Unlocking both Morality Assignments on a standard playthrough is, quite frankly, extremely difficult, and will almost certainly result in having to make undesired choices that will affect things in Mass Effect 2 and / or 3. Most players will instead use one of two glitches to artificially fill one of the Morality Bars and unlock both Assignments:

  • Eletania Max Paragon Exploit - Available as soon as you finish Expose Saren , this exploit is available during the UNC: Lost Module Assignment, and will only affect the Paragon Morality Bar.
  • Noveria Max Paragon and Renegade Exploit - Available on Noveria during the Lorik Qui'in Mission, this exploit will affect both the Paragon and Renegade Morality Bars.

Besieged Base slice2.png

  • Prerequisite : 80% Paragon Bar filled (90% if Renegade Bar was filled to 80% first)

Biotic fanatics have taken over a medical station and drugged innocent researchers to serve as human shields. You must eliminate the biotics while minimizing innocent casualties.

The Negotiation slice1.png

  • Prerequisite : 80% Renegade Bar filled (90% if Paragon Bar was filled to 80% first)

Admiral Hackett has asked you to negotiate a treaty with a man named Darius in the Plutus system. The treaty concerns mining rights on an asteroid rich in Element Zero. You are authorized to make any financial or diplomatic concessions necessary to secure mining rights on the asteroid.

Question regarding ME1 Assignment, is it bugged?

I am currently completing the assignments I have left before moving on to the main quest. My question is about the UNC: Privateers assignment. Or the Missing Person assignment, depending on how you stumbled upon it. I took a break from the game a month ago so my memories are a bit hazy when it comes to the assignment, but I think it may be bugged. Maybe some of you can help me out.

I found the body of Garoth's brother Willem by accident. I also reported it to him in the citadel. However now I am supposed to find his brother and his brothers ship. I scanned the ship outside Xawin, but that doesn't progress the assignment. I also visited the Privateer base again with his brothers body, but there is nothing there. I already killed all the privateers ofcourse and his brother is still lying around on the floor. Now I am a bit confused on what I am susposed to do.

/EDIT: This is how my assignment screen looks: http://i.imgur.com/LV0CXFS.png

Mass Effect 1 Legendary Edition

Assignments citadel, unc: missing marines.

mass effect missing person assignment

This Assignment first takes place during your first visit to the Citadel once you have exposed Saren and become a Spectre . There are alternative methods to being this Assignment.

Speak to Rear Admiral Kahoku on the Citadel’s Presidium Tower

(1 of 2) Speak to Rear Admiral Kahoku on the Citadel’s Presidium Tower

Speak to Rear Admiral Kahoku on the Citadel’s Presidium Tower (left), then make your way to Edolus, found in the Sparta System of Artemis Tau. (right)

How to Begin: ¶

There are several ways to begin this Assignment, with the earliest being from Admiral Kahoku on the Citadel:

After exposing Saren and becoming a Spectre, return to the Citadel Tower and look to the left of the stairs leading to the Council Chambers, you’ll find Admiral Kahoku. Agreeing to assist him with his request will begin this Assignment. Alternatively, Captain Anderson will direct you to Kahoku if you ask him about Banes following the completion of the Doctor Michel Assignment.

You can also pick this Assignment up by heading directly to the Sparta System in Artemis Tau . From here, approach Edolus to recieve a distress call.

Distress Call ¶

With the Assignment accepted, make your way to the Sparta System in the Artemis Tau Cluster where you’ll find the planet Edolus . Once you’re planetside, open your map and look for the Distress Signal to your north, taking care to save your game before you approach it. As you do, you’ll be attacked by a Thresher Maw and if this is your first time encountering these deadly foes, you’ll want to be extra careful.

You’ll want to avoid the Thresher Maw getting close to the Mako as a direct hit will be almost fatal to you. Keeping your distance however, will see the Thresher Maw spit a barrage of acid your way, this can be avoided by simply jumping while stationary. The final attack to watch out for is when the Thresher Maw begins burrowing towards you while it’s Sensory Tentacles will appear above ground. The intended method here is to drive around at speed, defeating the tentacles while avoiding the oncoming Thresher Maw however there is a trick you can use. If you drive far enough away from the Thresher Maw, it’ll retreat back underground and wait for you to approach it again, without the Sensory Tentacles. It’s health will remain the same so you can abuse this so that you never have to deal with that attack.

A Thresher Maw will appear as you approach the Distress Signal

(1 of 4) A Thresher Maw will appear as you approach the Distress Signal

Regardless of how you deal with the Thresher Maw, once it’s defeated, make your way to the pile of bodies and examine one of them to learn that it looks like they were lured by the Distress Signal by another party. With all said and done, there’s nothing left to do but make your return to the Citadel and deliver the news to him to complete the Assignment. Completion of this Assignment will unlock the follow-up, UNC: Cerberus when you access the Galaxy Map.

WEATHER ALERT

5 warnings in effect for 7 counties in the area

Sheriff says 2 of 9 people wounded in michigan shooting at splash pad remain in critical condition.

Associated Press

PONTIAC, Mich. – Two of the nine people wounded in a weekend shooting at a suburban Detroit splash pad remain hospitalized in critical condition Monday, including an 8-year-old boy who has “made amazing progress” despite being shot in the head, authorities said.

The child's 4-year-old brother was shot in the leg, and the boys’ mother was hit in the abdomen and leg during the random attack in Rochester Hills. It was one of at least four mass shootings in the U.S. on Saturday and early Sunday.

Recommended Videos

“Reeling would be an understatement,” Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard said of the family. “A family of four and three are in the hospital.”

Michael Nash, 42, fired as many as 36 times Saturday, stopping several times to reload, police said. He subsequently went home to Shelby Township, where he killed himself.

Bouchard said a motive could be hard to pin down.

Nash had no connection to the victims or the splash pad, a popular way for people, especially kids, to play in fountains and water sprays.

“It appears he had been musing about different things, saying ‘Shut your phone off, we’re being watched, they are listening to us,’” the sheriff said, citing interviews with Nash's mother. “Walking around the house with weapons ... and talking about how the government was tracking him.

“Clearly it appears to me, as a lay person, he's had some mental health things going on,” Bouchard said. “At this point we still have no information that was brought to anyone's attention.”

Nash's mother lived with him but was away from home when the shooting happened.

Michigan has a new law that empowers a judge to take away someone's guns if a family member steps forward about possible threats to that person or others.

The 9 mm Glock handgun used in the splash pad shooting was purchased legally by Nash in 2015, Bouchard said. Investigators found 11 more weapons at the home.

“He’s a loner. The blinds are always pulled over there,” neighbor Kyleen Duchene told The Detroit News.

Rochester Hills is about 15 miles (24 kilometers) south of Oxford, where in 2021 a 15-year-old fatally shot four high school students .

Elsewhere in the U.S. over the weekend , six people were shot in a residential neighborhood in Lathrup Village, another Detroit suburb. Seven people were shot at a party in Methuen, Massachusetts, and eight people were shot during a Juneteenth celebration in Round Rock, Texas. Two people were killed in that shooting.

AP reporter Kathleen Foody in Chicago contributed to this story.
