This time, things will play out differently in the endgame. Once you've settled conflicts, completed the DLC and gathered enough War Assets to meet the 7800 TMS requirement, you can initiate the final assault. Unfortunately, Legion will always die in this situation, but you'll come out with a more peaceful resolution and two big War Assets in both the Geth and Quarian fleets. Ideally, you'll want to resolve this peacefully so that you acquire both the Geth and Quarian assets. Choosing the Geth will lead to Tali's suicide and a loss of Quarian War Assets. If you can't make the speech check, you won't be able to broker peace between the Geth and Quarians, meaning you'll have to choose a side. Destroying them won't afford you additional War Assets. Additionally in Mass Effect 2, you will have needed to Rewrite the Geths on Legion's Loyalty mission. Your Reputation bar should at least be 80% filled before you tackle the Priority: Rannoch quest, which ensures you'll have the necessary speech check options available. The Geth/Quarian conflict is a little trickier to resolve, as this requires a an important decision made in Mass Effect 2, and a hefty Paragon or Renegade speech check. Unfortunately the Salarians won't be too happy about this, but the Krogan assets are enough to offset Salarian support. If you choose to not cure the Genophage and lie, you'll still receive Turian support but you'll lose out on Krogan War Assets. Doing this will lead to Mordin's death, but it ensures that the Turians receive support from the Krogans, thus earning both the Krogan and Turian War Assets. Regarding the Genophage, you would have needed to keep Maelon's data from Mass Effect 2 as it's crucial to the cure. You'll always receive Turian support if you play the story quests regardless of your options, but there are ways in which you can botch the aforementioned two major conflicts. However, you'll also need to settle two key conflicts in the main game: Curing the Genophage and resolving the Geth/Quarian war. The DLCs that offer substantial War Assets include Leviathan and Omega, where you'll receive help from the Leviathans as well as Aria's Omega fleets. There are a number of conflicts that you'll absolutely need to resolve successfully in the main game and DLC. However, your biggest dump of War Assets will come from settling conflicts in the game's main story and DLC. In the galaxy map, you can scan systems to find planets or points of interest that may offer you War Assets too. You can pick up side quests too by eavesdropping on people in the game's main hub areas like the Citadel, and also reading all of your emails. Each quest offers War Assets that add to your overall TMS. So what's the best way to farm War Assets? For one, make sure you complete literally every single main and side quest before launching the final assault. In my personal experience, your TMS score should at least be 7800. There has been plenty of discussion online about the required TMS score that ensures the best ending. This does make building your TMS harder, but thankfully the DLC offers a lot of additional War Assets too. It now only includes one overall TMS (Total Military Strength) score. However, since the Legendary Edition doesn't have multiplayer, the War Assets calculator has seen a massive change. War Assets in the original game could also be acquired by playing the multiplayer. In the original game, these War Assets were calculated by a percentage and EMS (Effective Military Strength). The entire gameplay loop of Mass Effect 3 is based on building your overall military strength through War Assets. Fortunately, the fifth ending is what we'll be targeting, which ensures Shepard's rather vague survival. All of these options result in Shepard's death, with slight variations that might spin off branching endings. 4) Doom the entire galaxy to the Reaper invasion. 3) Synthesize with all organic and synthetic life in the galaxy. In three steps, we'll tell you how you can achieve Mass Effect 3's best ending.īefore we jump into the steps, we must first look at the possible options given to us in the end of the game: 1) Destroy the Reapers. However, there is a way to prevent Shepard from dying, which involves some careful planning before heading into the final fight. However, we've now arrived at the (even more) infamous ending of Mass Effect 3, which results in a handful of choices that inevitably leads to Commander Shepard's death. In case you missed it, we've also got a handy guide on how to keep everyone alive in Mass Effect 2's infamous Suicide Mission. WARNING: Major spoilers ahead for the endings of Mass Effect 3 and the Mass Effect trilogy.īy now, veterans and newcomers alike may have blazed through the Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and arrived at the climax of Mass Effect 3.
