Guide to completing the 'Broken Wires' task in Mass Effect: Andromeda. Find Shapiro, scan damaged equipment, and deal with a critter causing power issues.
Hey there, Pathfinder! You're going to stumble upon another quest in the Docking Bay area, specifically on the upper floor. If you head east from Vortex, you'll see some ramps leading up to the upper part of hydroponics. Up there, you'll find Shapiro tinkering with a hydroponics machine. He's got some power issues on his hands, and even though he thinks it's beneath you, the XP reward is totally worth it!
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, accept the quest from Shapiro. Then, make your way to the Tech Lab. Look for a wall on the east side, and you'll find some Damaged Equipment to scan.
- 2Next, head over to the Cultural Exchange. In the northwestern corner of the room, there's a desk. Scan it to find another piece of Damaged Equipment.
- 3Now, take the tram to the Operations level. You'll need to search the northeastern end of Kesh’s office. Here, you'll find a little alien critter whose nesting habits are causing all the electrical trouble. Scan it, then examine it.
- 4After you've dealt with the critter, you'll get a pretty sweet XP bonus for what was a pretty simple task.
Tips
- Don't underestimate the XP rewards, even for seemingly small tasks like this one!
- Pay attention to the environmental cues and prompts to make sure you're scanning the correct items.
