Don't let those Batarians launch their missiles! Follow this quick guide to stop the attack on Franklin in Mass Effect Legendary Edition and secure your loot.

Alright, so we've got a timed mission here called 'Stop Missile Attack' in Sigurd's Cradle, located in the Skepsis system on the moon Franklin. Just a heads-up, you'll need to have finished the 'MSV Strontium Mule' mission first to even get access to this area. The main goal is to stop those Javelin missiles before they launch, and you've got a strict five-minute timer once it kicks off.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start the mission on a ship. The moment you gain control, a timer starts counting down from five minutes. Batarians are everywhere, so focus on the objective first – you can always grab any missed items later. You'll see three Batarians in the hallway to the south. Keep heading north and bypass the first door you come to.
  2. 2
    As soon as you bypass that door, expect an ambush! Immediately sprint for cover when you regain control of Shepard. A bunch of Batarians, at least six of them, will attack in the main room, including a Commander. Your next move is to head downwards and bypass the door located below you.
  3. 3
    Once you're through that door, you'll find yourself in a room with a single Batarian Commander. Focus your fire on him. After he's down, make sure to grab the loot from the Wall Safe – it's got 3750 credits.
  4. 4
    Your final objective is to hack the Kill Switch Console. You'll be presented with a choice here. Honestly, the outcome isn't clear and doesn't seem to impact anything in this game, but it might set something up for the future. Pick the option that best fits your Shepard's personality.
Tips
  • The mission area is Sigurd's Cradle, Skepsis system, on the moon Franklin.
  • Enemy Defenses: Shield. Enemies include Batarians and a Batarian Commander.
  • Items available: Power Cells, 2000 Palladium, and a Wall Safe with 3750 credits.
  • Don't get bogged down fighting every Batarian; prioritize reaching the objective within the five-minute time limit.
  • You can collect any missed items after the mission is complete.
