Follow the Signal Tracking assignment in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (ME1). Find clues around the Citadel, from Flux to the Presidium, and decide how to stop a rogue AI.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    To begin, gain access to the Wards after meeting the council. Go to the Upper Wards and enter Flux. Head upstairs to the Casino and find the Suspicious Gambling Machine at the back. Examine it to start the assignment.
  2. 2
    Make your way back to the Wards Access (east from Flux, towards the Presidium). Head to the room east of the Presidium elevator to find the first signal.
  3. 3
    Take the elevator to the Presidium. Go to the Financial District and enter Barla Von’s office in the Bank. The second signal is at the back of the room.
  4. 4
    Head next door to the Emporium on the Presidium. Go to the back room. Save your game before interacting with the final location.
  5. 5
    After learning about the rogue AI, you have two choices:
  6. 6
    Shoot the device: This shuts down the AI but damages your squad members and yields no Credits.
  7. 7
    Shut down the AI via minigame: Press the following buttons in sequence: Y, X, Y, A, X, A, A (Xbox) or Triangle, Square, Triangle, X, Square, X, X (PS4/5). This avoids the explosion and rewards you with Credits based on your completion time.
Tips
  • Save your game before interacting with the final device at the Emporium.
  • The minigame offers a Credit reward, while shooting the device does not.
