Walkthrough

Locate And Scan Resistance Bugs In Kett Camps

Scan to find the resistance bug

Pathfinder Ryder will have to find and scan three Resistance bugs. The bugs are randomly scattered among the kett camps. Each bug will be marked with MEA Investigate Map Icon. If a camp doesn't have a bug, the camp might have one the next time Ryder visits. If a camp has a bug, SAM (or a squadmate) will comment on the presence of the bug.

Once enough bugs have been scanned, SAM will indicate that the location has been found.

Locate The Broken Signal

After scanning three bugs, follow the navpointMEA Tracked Objective Map Iconthrough the Ja Niihk Dig Site MEA Cave Map Icon.

Note: Ja Niihk Dig Site can't be accessed until Remove the Heart is completed.

Examine The Datapad

At the beginning of the path, going down into the excavation site, is a cave with a datapad next to a dead angara. If Ryder brought Jaal Ama Darav along, he will recognize the body as someone named Talvor.


For whoever finds this...

Translated from Shelesh:

The kett found one of my bugs. Used the signal to track me down. Managed to lose them, but they landed enough shots to ensure I won't last long. I'm shutting down the communication link so they can't use it against our scouts. If you find this, get it to the Resistance. Davja Kaas will know what to do with it.

It was an honor fighting for my people. Talvor out.


Interact with the datapad to take it with Ryder. Completing this part of the mission will likely dovetail with Uncovering the Past.

Return To Intelligence Officer Kaas

Speak to Intelligence Officer Davja Kaas in the Angaran Resistance Base and hand over the datapad with all the information Talvor collected.

Rewards

Bugs

Sometimes a crate (and the surveillance bug associated with it) is not removed after Ryder scans it. When Ryder returns to that location later, the crate can be seen but not scanned. SAM will still ask Ryder to scan it.
