Walkthrough[]

Help Resistance fighters defeat kett[]

If you're uphill and they're downhill it's tempting to just ram them over with the Nomad

Eliminate the kett forces. Enemy composition is a couple of Anointed and Chosen.

The battlefield is sparse and has no ammo or health refills nor solar heaters (the burning wreckage nearby isn't enough to stave off the cold), so best get it done quickly.

As with other missions with friendly NPC helpers, the angaran fighters cannot die but deal negligible damage, so it's still up to you to finish the fight in a reasonable amount of time before you freeze from the cold hazard.

Speak with the Resistance team's leader[]

Juusov is the only guy to speak to. He's grumpy about the rescue, and advises Pathfinder Ryder to not join fights that aren't theirs. You can act modest, or tell him you were sent by Evfra, either way Juusov is dismissive of your efforts. He warns you not all angara can distinguish between the Milky Way visitors and the kett, and while you'll snark about it, he just grunts in response.

After speaking with Juusov, the mission is marked complete. There are no rewards.

Trivia[]

This mission is neither on the journal or in Mass Effect: Andromeda Official Prima Guide, and thus has no further "official" classification other than it's a mission. It does have markers on the map, hence where the initial mission text comes from.
