N7: Hahne-Kedar Facility

This mission is triggered after completing the mission N7: Abandoned Research Station (which itself is triggered by N7: Wrecked Merchant Freighter). Jarrahe Station got abandoned after receiving a shipment which originated from the Hahne-Kedar facility on Capek (Haskins System, Titan Nebula).

Mission briefing
Commander Shepard receives a mail from EDI about the facility as the possible source of a VI virus that caused the MSV Corsica to crash and led Jarrahe Station's internal VI to kill the scientists aboard.

A scan of Capek opens the following message: ''Surface scan detects mech production facility matching the registration parameters of Hahne-Kedar Corporation. Facility reports emergency lockdown at this location. Personnel scans report no living beings detected. Hazard scans show a large number of virus-infected mechs quarantined within the facility. Deactivation of the primary production line controls should disrupt the creation of additional infected mechs.''



Walkthrough
Throughout the facility Shepard is at first attacked by FENRIS Mech and LOKI Mech, later by an endless flood of LOKI Mechs. There is no point in taking cover behind a crate and waiting for it to end, since Shepard has to shut down the infected production line. Along some crates of Element zero, a small maze leads to the back right of the room and to a door with the console to shut down the production which also triggers self destruction in all Mechs. Commander Shepard escapes in the shuttle and a big explosion destroys the factory.

This mission can be very hard on harder difficulities. To beat this level one should take advantage of the spawning mechanic which only allows 3 Mechs to be alive at a time, after "the endless flood" event has been triggered. If you are able to disable all 3 mechs at the same time, then instead of killing them, just run past them. Once you get past them, they won't be able to kill you, and no more mechs will spawn.
