Guide to the final battle at Collector Station in Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Learn strategies for each phase, enemy types, and the final boss.

Alright, this is it – the big one! The final push at the Collector Station. Don't worry, it's more about endurance than raw difficulty, but it can definitely drag on if you're not prepared. You'll get a nice ammo boost for heavy weapons right at the start, so use it wisely.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Stage 1: The Platforms
    You'll start by fighting on a series of platforms. The first two will have Drones and a Guardian. Things get tougher on the third and fourth platforms, as Collectors show up, and Harbinger makes his grand entrance. Expect Assassins and more enemies here. The final, fifth platform is a real challenge with two Abominations and two Scions – stay mobile to dodge their shockwaves! Remember, all these platforms come from the north. After you clear them, activate the platform to see exactly why the Collectors have been so busy snatching humans.
  2. 2
    Stage 2: Weak Points and Shields
    Now, you need to destroy specific weak points that appear between waves of Collectors. Once you totally defeat a platform's enemies, their shields drop. If you're quick, you can blast multiple weak points while they're down, potentially finishing this stage in just two waves. Seriously, use up the ammo from a weaker heat sink weapon here – it's the perfect time. After this, you'll face a massive choice that will have consequences for your crew's opinions later.

    Stage 3: The Final Boss
    This humongous boss has several weak points on its eyes, and a big one in its chest that shows up when it climbs around the platform. Its only defense is Armor, so bring out your best powers and weapons that deal with that. The right eye is a bit easier to hit than the left. Occasionally, a drone might fly in and transform into Harbinger while the boss dives away, but don't get too distracted; focus on the boss until you absolutely have to.
Tips
  • The M-920 Cain heavy weapon is incredibly effective against the final boss if you have it.
  • Keep moving during the fight on the fifth platform to avoid the Scions' shockwaves.
  • Don't hold back on using powerful abilities and weapons against the final boss, as it only has Armor as a defense.
  • If you're quick, you can destroy multiple weak points in Stage 2 while the shields are down, speeding up the process significantly.
