Settling Voeld

Learn how to establish an outpost on Voeld in Mass Effect: Andromeda. Discover the benefits, requirements, and how it helps with other quests.

Alright, so you're looking to get settled on Voeld! If you've been following along, you should be pretty much done with the planet. Setting up an outpost here is a solid move – it gives you some sweet rewards, makes exploring the south way easier, and gives you an extra fast travel point and some shelters to warm up in. Plus, it really helps out with quests like "Restoring a World" and "Strange Beacon.".

First things first, you'll need 40% Voeld viability to even think about setting up shop. You'll also want that invitation from Eska Yeveth after finishing "Uncovering the Past." If you've been thorough, you'll likely have even more viability, maybe around 60%. Once you've got that sorted, head to the outpost site. It's located southeast of the Resistance Base and Hjara Station, and southwest of Techiix Station.

When you get there, just use the Outpost Beacon. Addison will pop up as a hologram, and bam! Space magic makes your outpost appear. This little venture nets you 1,600 AVP and bumps your Voeld viability up by 20%. Nice!

After all that, you can chat with the outpost's mayor, Priya Blake. She'll kick off the "Missing Science Crew" quest, though you might want to save that one for later. You can also get started on the Voeld part of "Task: Boosting the Signal." Oh, and don't forget to check a table just north or northeast of Priya Blake – there's a Turian Frigate Model waiting for you there. Grab it for your collection!
