Follow our guide to complete the 'Fact or Fiction' quest in Mass Effect: Andromeda. Learn how to find Kett logs, disable security, and uncover Angaran history.
Alright, let's tackle the 'Fact or Fiction' quest in Mass Effect: Andromeda. After you've wrapped up 'Meet the Family,' you'll want to find an Angara named Ari Vesjek. He's hanging out in Techiix Station, pretty close to the entrance, inside a building to the north. He's got some historical tidbits to share before he gets to the real reason he needs your help: preserving some crucial Angaran history about their first contact with the Kett. To kick this off, you'll need to have started, or ideally finished, the 'Remove the Heart' quest.
The main objective here is to get into a big Kett base on Voeld. You don't necessarily have to clear the whole place out, but you absolutely need to breach it and take down three Kett Generators. Look for a large, multi-level structure with a turret on a balcony overlooking the northern part of the base. Inside, you'll find one of those Kett Generators, plenty of containers to loot, and, importantly, a Console. It's on the upper floor, in the southwestern corner, and it holds the intel Ari Vesjek is after.
- 1Head to Techiix Station on Voeld and find Ari Vesjek near the north entrance. He'll ask you to retrieve some Kett logs concerning first contact.
- 2Make your way to the main Kett base. You need to breach the base and disable three Kett Generators.
- 3Locate the multi-level structure with a balcony turret. Inside, find the Console on the upper floor in the southwestern corner.
- 4Interact with the Console. You'll learn you need to disable a security matrix to access the data.
- 5Head downstairs and continue north until you find a doorway leading to a structure on the west. Enter this building.
- 6SAM will warn you about a defensive matrix. Scan the support column opposite the doorway to find a Critical Subsystem.
- 7Follow the conduits on the ground to find and scan the other two Critical Subsystems.
- 8Disable all three subsystems to take down the security matrix, earning you 530 XP.
- 9Now, make your way to the southern-most building in the base. A previously sealed door can now be opened.
- 10Before going through the ground floor door, head to the roof of this building. There's another door to the south. Inside, you'll find containers and a Kett Core Encryption Tech pylon. Scan it for 270 XP and complete the sub-objective 'Kett Base Attack'.
- 11Return to the ground floor and go through the door you previously ignored. You'll find more containers and a Computer. Hack this Computer to finally obtain the intel Ari Vesjek needs.
- 12With the intel secured, return to Techiix Station and speak with Ari Vesjek. He'll present you with a choice regarding how to handle the historical data.
- Completing the 'Remove the Heart' quest beforehand makes things easier, but at minimum, you must breach the Kett base and disable the three generators.
- Don't get too 'indiscriminate' when destroying the defensive matrix; focus on the identified Critical Subsystems.
- Loot everything! There are plenty of containers scattered throughout the Kett base.
- 530 XP for disabling the security matrix.
- 270 XP for completing the 'Kett Base Attack' sub-objective.
- 530 XP upon returning to Ari Vesjek.
