Follow our Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (ME1) walkthrough for UNC: Asari Diplomacy. Learn how to start the assignment, find Dahlia, and get the best rewards.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Starting the Assignment:
    • Receive a transmission from Nassana Dantius after completing a main mission and traveling to a new system. Visit her in the Embassy Lounge on the Citadel.
  2. 2
    Hack a terminal at a mercenary base on the planet Sharjila in the Macedon system (Artemis Tau cluster).
  3. 3
    Hack an Easy terminal in the cafeteria at Peak 15 on Noveria. This will list the assignment as 'Mercenaries'.
  4. 4
    Finding Dahlia on Sharjila:
    • Travel to the Macedon system in the Artemis Tau cluster and land on Sharjila.
  5. 5
    Head north to locate the pirate Stronghold. Engage and defeat the snipers in the towers and ground soldiers around the perimeter. Stay in the Mako for easier engagement.
  6. 6
    Enter the base and clear out the pirates. Be aware of seven pirates, including a Sniper on the second floor and an Asari Slaver. Use the entrance to lure enemies out for a tactical advantage.
  7. 7
    Deal with the Krogan by using Biotics like Lift, Throw, and Singularity to disable it.
  8. 8
    In the main room, defeat the remaining Sniper and the Asari Slaver, who uses powerful Biotics. Use your own Biotics to counter her abilities and focus fire.
  9. 9
    After clearing the room, proceed to the second floor. You will find a Hardened Storage Locker (Hard Decryption), a Hardened Wall Safe (Hard Decryption), and a malfunctioning object.
  10. 10
    Investigate the Computer to discover that the Asari Slaver was the missing Dahlia.
  11. 11
    On the ground floor, find a Medical Kit and an Upgrade Kit. There are also three Crates and a Medical Station (Easy Decryption).
  12. 12
    Informing Nassana:
    • Return to the Citadel and speak with Nassana Dantius in the Embassy Lounge.
  13. 13
    You will have several dialogue options:
    • “I’ve got a better deal.” (Requires 3 Charm points) - Grants the Armali License.
  14. 14
    “Credits won’t cut it.” (Requires 4 Intimidate points) - Grants the Armali License.
  15. 15
    “Don’t bother.” - Grants +2 Paragon points.
  16. 16
    “Fair enough.” - No additional reward or morality points.
  17. 17
    “It better be.” - Grants +2 Renegade points.
Tips
  • Using Biotics like Lift, Throw, and Singularity is highly effective against the Krogan and the Asari Slaver.
  • The Armali License is a valuable reward that can be purchased later in the game, but obtaining it through dialogue saves you credits and potentially a significant amount of time. Prioritize the Charm or Intimidate options if your character has the necessary points.
  • Armali License (if Charm or Intimidate options are chosen)
  • Paragon or Renegade points depending on dialogue choice.
