 Hints: Finding All the Elements:
The best way to find the elements, minerals, and anomalies on planets that you can explore is to drive
along the edges of the operational area [the red area]. Drive the Mako in a circle around the area
to where you can barely see the edge of the red line. You should find at least two elements/minerals
on each planet that can be explored. There are rare things that will not show up on your map
-- you will also have to drive around like this to find them. There are several more items than you
are required to find, but it is good to go ahead and get them if you need the experience points.
Also if you say the correct things to the Asari Consort, she will give you a trinket that will allow
you to activate a Prothean Orb found on Eletania, or the 'monkey' planet, in the Hercules system.
It contains the memories of a Cro-Magnon that was observed by the Protheans. The orb will show
up as an anomaly on your map, in the lower left corner.
Hints: Easy Mako Repairs:
Use the following trick when your Mako is badly damaged and you do not want to or cannot spend Omni-gel
to repair it. Save the game and reload it. You will find that the Mako is now totally repaired.
Hints: Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic 2 Reference:
Nihlus, the first Spectre you meet, is a reference to Darth Nihlus in Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic
2. They both have the same face paint.
Hints: Easy Ally Achievements:
Use the following trick to unlock all six ally tasks with only three playthroughs. When you start
the game, focus on getting all six of your teammates. Choose two of them to play through the game
with. Keep those two until you complete the majority of the game. You will get the ally achievement
for the teammate you recruited first. After you get it, replace that teammate with another one
as soon as possible. After the next assignment you complete, you will then unlock the ally achievement
for the second teammate.
Hints: Easy Experience Points:
To gain extra experience from battles, make sure to get out of the Mako for the final hit. You can weaken
the stronger enemies from inside the Mako and then get out to finish them off. You will only
get 60% of the experience if you kill enemies with the Mako.
When you are using the Mako, try to kill as few enemies as possible with it. You can even use the Mako
sitting in the garage on Noveria that you can decrypt and use [only the guns], because it is worth
the same as far as experience points earned. Most of the time you will gain more experience points
if you defeat enemies with your own weapons. In the case of a Thresher Maw, Heavy Turret, or a
Geth Colossus, just use the Mako's cannon and mini-gun to get them to a sliver of health, then finish
them off with your weapons. You will gain the same amount of experience points as you would have
if you had fought them entirely with your own weapons. The sniper rifle can also earn you more
experience points if your character is trained with it. Be careful on planets with hazardous environments
when using either of these methods.
Hints: 'Scholarship' Achievement Codec Locations:
This achievement requires that you locate information on all primary Alien: Council Races, Extinct Races,
and Non-Council Races.

Asari: Speak with Captain Anderson after the first meeting with the council.
Salarians: Speak with Captain Anderson after the first meeting with the council.

Rachni: Speak with the VI Avina near the Consort Chambers/Krogran Statue about the Rachni wars.
Protheans: Speak with Captain Anderson and Nihlus on the Normandy at the beginning of the game in the
Communications Room. This is your only chance in the game to get this codec. If you miss it, you
will not be able to recover it later in the game.
Aliens: Non-Council Races
Batarians: After you become a Spectre, speak with Captain Anderson about his Spectre activities at the
Docking Bay.
