Complete Mass Effect Legendary Edition Eclipse Base walkthrough including Scimitar shotgun location, Biotic Damage upgrade, and Gunship fight.
Walkthrough
- 1Upon arrival, you will encounter an inactive LOKI mech and then be thrown into a fight when opening the next door. A toxicity meter will appear, indicating exposure to toxic clouds from destroyed fragile crates or toxic crates. You can withstand approximately 10 seconds of toxin, which boosts biotic powers, but it is best to avoid it.
- 2Defeat the sisterhood and mechs, ensuring you address the mechs to the west while fighting the Eclipse to the south.
- 3In the next area, pick up the Scimitar Assault Shotgun. This shotgun has a faster rate of fire but a smaller heatsink capacity.
- 4You will hear an Eclipse member whispering inside a closed room. You can show her mercy, but to earn the uniform, each member must commit murder. The options are to take the Renegade interrupt or let her go via Paragon.
- 5Locate and acquire the Biotic Damage upgrade.
- 6In the subsequent area, you will face a mech and more sisters. Utilize the railing in the center to shoot over the toxic canisters instead of staying near them.
- 7Proceed upstairs to face more LOKI Mechs, sisters, and an Eclipse Heavy who fires missiles. Use Overload on them and defeat the other enemies before heading up the next set of stairs.
- 8In the following area, a Gunship will appear in the distance and then fly away. Eliminate the immediate foes, which appear in small groups.
- 9Collect the items in the room, listen to the log, and proceed through the doors.
- 10Exit the hallway to activate several LOKI mechs. Defeat them and prepare for the Gunship encounter. A Power Cell is available in the area; grab it when needed. Ensure your squad uses weapons effective against Armor.
- 11The Gunship will attack from the west, then retreat further west. Seek cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) on the west side, as it will return in about 15 seconds from the east/center area. Using the portion of the stairs sticking out on the west side provides cover.
- 12Pick up the Shipping Manifest to start another assignment. You can return it to either Detective Anaya or Pitne For.
- 13Speak with Niftu Cal.
- 14Enter the final area of the base to confront Captain Wasea, who will toss objects around the room. Sisters and an Eclipse Heavy will support her.
- 15Obtain Wasea's datapad. A hackable terminal is also present.
- 16Speak with the Detective about the log and resolve the situation with the manifest.
- 17Recruiting Samara provides a Biotic Damage upgrade.
