Return to the Normandy after Feros to chat with your crew, speak with the Council, and prepare for the next major mission. Get Paragon/Renegade points and new assignments.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon returning to the Normandy after Feros, you will have conversations with your crew. If you have already completed Therum, Liara will dominate the conversation. Your dialogue choices during this initial crew interaction do not affect outcomes.
  2. 2
    Joker will ask if you wish to speak to the Council. Agree to do so.
  3. 3
    When prompted for your first dialogue response with the Council, choose _”Better off this way.”_ for Paragon +2 or _”Don’t be stupid!”_ for Renegade +2.
  4. 4
    Subsequent Paragon dialogue options will yield Paragon +2 each. There are no further Renegade options during this conversation. Choosing _Disconnect_ will not award points.
  5. 5
    Conclude your conversation with the Council.
  6. 6
    Speak with your crew members. Depending on your Shepard's gender, Ashley, Kaidan, and Liara may have romance options available. You can pursue these, downplay rivalries if flirting with multiple characters, or end relationships using dialogue options (Renegade options often serve this purpose).
  7. 7
    Talk to Ashley, Garrus, Kaidan, Liara, and Wrex to receive new Codex Entries.
  8. 8
    Garrus may offer the assignment [Garrus: Find Dr. Saleon].
  9. 9
    Wrex may offer the assignment [Wrex: Family Armor].
  10. 10
    You should also have the assignments [Investigate Samples] and [Investigate Facility] from ExoGeni headquarters.
  11. 11
    Interact with the Galaxy Map to receive an important transmission from the Council, which initiates the mission [Virmire]. This transmission is unlocked after completing two of the three core post-Citadel missions (Therum, Feros, Noveria).
  12. 12
    Agree to receive the transmission and visit the Comm Room for intel from the Council, which officially starts the [Virmire] mission.
  13. 13
    During the conversation with the Council to start Virmire, choosing Paragon/Renegade options will earn you Paragon +2 or Renegade +2, respectively.
  14. 14
    If you have not yet completed [Noveria], it is recommended to do so now, along with any remaining assignments in your journal.
  15. 15
    After completing all other desired tasks, proceed to the [Virmire] mission. Note that completing Virmire locks you into the game's end-game sequence and will permanently alter your squad.
  16. 16
    If you visit the Citadel, speak with Udina in his office to update him on Feros. Choosing Paragon/Renegade options during this conversation will award Paragon +2 or Renegade +2, respectively.
Tips
  • It is recommended to complete all desired assignments and side missions before starting the Virmire mission, as it leads into the game's end-game.
  • You only need to complete two of the three core post-Citadel missions (Therum, Feros, Noveria) to unlock Virmire. However, there is no penalty for completing all three.
  • Completing the Virmire mission will result in permanent changes to your squad composition.
  • Paragon/Renegade points from Council conversations.
  • New Codex Entries from crew members.
  • Assignments: [Garrus: Find Dr. Saleon], [Wrex: Family Armor], [Investigate Samples], [Investigate Facility].
  • Initiation of the mission [Virmire].
