INE: Cerberus

L'Ammiraglio Kahoku ti ha fornito le coordinate di una struttura di ricerca del gruppo Cerberus. Raggiungi il pianeta Binthu e scopri perché Cerberus sta rilasciando delle mostruosità aliene nella Fascia di Attica.

Acquisizione

Dopo aver completato INE: Marine Dispersi, la prossima volta che userai la Mappa Galattica riceverai un messaggio dall'Ammiraglio Kahoku. Egli ha delle informazioni che provano che l'agguato nel quale sono morti i suoi marine è stato architettato da un gruppo conosciuto come Cerberus. Kahoku ha individuato tre delle loro strutture, sul pianeta Binthu nel sistema Yangtze dell'Ammasso Voyager. Su Binthu ci sono tre strutture di ricerca di Cerberus che devono essere ripulite.

Walkthrough

The three Cerberus bases are all similarly built: standard underground entrances with two defense turrets on top. Inside, you will find Cerberus troops—snipers, commandos, and biotic research technicians—working around forcefields in the centre of the room.

These forcefields hold whatever creatures Cerberus is currently experimenting on: one base will hold three Rachni Workers, another will hold one Rachni Soldier, and the other base holds three Thorian Creepers. A good technique for dealing with these bases, especially on higher difficulty levels, is to give Cerberus a taste of their own medicine. Get your team to wait in the anteroom, go in low and fast through the door, shut off the forcefields at the closest diagnostic station, and then run back out again. The experimental subjects and the Cerberus personnel will then attack each other, giving you fewer enemies to face or a chance to pick them off while they're in disarray.

However this tactic will give you less experience as you won't be making the kills. You can divide and conquer by leaving the forcefield up, killing the Cerberus troops and then take the creatures out (they're not that difficult). Using this strategy, the best thing to do is send your squadmates to cover one of the pillars, and cover the other yourself. Just watch for flanking enemies because sometimes your squadmates will let enemies through.

Once you've cleared the area, take time to explore each base. The first base you enter will have a console at the far end that when accessed will trigger one of your squadmates to say that Cerberus has other bases on the world. Each base will hold different loot. One will hold nothing, another will hold a technician kit, an aid station and locker, and the other will hold another technician kit and five medical stations and those will produce Sirta Foundation armor and various bio-amps.

Nota: If you activate the terminal in the first base before you clear the base of the enemies it holds, then the mission will not complete and you will be forced to reload the auto-save when you landed on the planet. Clear the base first, then activate the terminal.

Regardless of the order in which you clear them, Kahoku will be located in the final facility. He was captured and murdered by Cerberus operatives soon after transmitting details of the operation to you. Examining Kahoku's body will complete the assignment and trigger the next, UNC: Hades' Dogs.

You check for a pulse but find none. Admiral Kahoku is dead. Despite the ferocity of the creatures he was sealed in with, there are no signs of trauma to his corpse. The needle marks on his arm suggest a different means of execution.
