Need help finding Wrex's lost family armor? This guide covers how to start the quest, defeat pirates on Tuntau, and secure the armor in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition.

Alright, so you're looking to help Wrex out with a personal matter, huh? This is a pretty straightforward assignment, but it's a good one for getting Wrex's loyalty locked down. You'll find him hanging out in the cargo hold on the Normandy. Chat him up, and he'll eventually spill the beans about some lost family armor. He's figured out where it is and wants your help retrieving it. Just agree to help, and the assignment kicks off!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to head to the Galaxy Map. Plot a course for the Phoenix system, which is located in the Argos Rho cluster. On one of the planets there, called Tuntau, is where Wrex's armor is stashed. Make sure Wrex is in your squad before you make planetfall – you'll want him there for this.
  2. 2
    Once you land on Tuntau, you'll want to head south. Keep an eye out for a Hidden Structure. Before you can get inside, though, you'll run into some trouble. A group of Pirates will be guarding the entrance. Don't sweat it too much; just hop in the Mako and use its Primary Cannon. It makes short work of them, so clear them out and then head into the base.
  3. 3
    Inside, you'll find yourself in the main room facing a few more pirates, including two snipers, and the main guy, Tonn Actus. Now, here's a little trick: you can actually lure these guys back towards the entrance you just came through. It gives you a nice defensive position, and you can use your Biotics to disable them before picking them off one by one.
  4. 4
    You'll still need to deal with those two snipers in the main room, but you can probably rush them down pretty quickly once the others are dealt with. Tonn Actus himself isn't too tough; he mostly just uses his Immunity ability.
  5. 5
    Once the area is clear, head upstairs. You'll find a room packed with loot, and right there, you'll find Wrex's Armor. Grab it, and that's the assignment completed!

Completing this assignment earns Wrex's loyalty. This is super important because it'll help you out later, especially with the choice you have to make on Virmire. Having his loyalty means you won't need a super high Charm or Intimidate score to influence him during that critical moment.
