Guide to Mass Effect's Project Firewalker: Prothean Site. Learn how to disable shield generators, defeat Rocket Drones, and find valuable upgrades.

Alright, let's tackle the Prothean Site mission, part of the Project Firewalker DLC. This one's a bit different since it's not about combat but more about navigating and disabling objectives. You'll be piloting the Hammerhead vehicle for this one.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to travel to the Hades Nexus in the Hoplos system. As soon as you land, you'll likely encounter a Rocket Drone. Take it out quickly before it causes trouble.
  2. 2
    Your main objective here is to disable the shield's four power sources. Keep an eye out, because Rocket Drones will appear as you move between these sources, sometimes popping up right next to you. You'll also find several Element Zero deposits scattered around if you want to mine them.
  3. 3
    The first power source is located to your right. There's a drone on the way, so deal with it. Get close enough to the power source to target and destroy it.
  4. 4
    After destroying the first source, double back to the left, taking out any Rocket Drones you encounter. You'll then need to head upwards to reach the next power sources. Just follow the path and use the Hammerhead's jump capability to reach the second power source on a higher ledge.
  5. 5
    Continue forward from the second source and jump to land on another cliff. Follow the edge, continuing to destroy the drones that appear, until you reach the third power source. Destroy it.
  6. 6
    Once the third source is down, fall back to the ground level. Cross the area and jump up near the connecting cord to find the final power source.
  7. 7
    After disabling the last power source, head to the center of the area and exit the Hammerhead.
  8. 8
    Travel through the final section of the area. Listen to the journal entries you find along the way – they offer some lore. Make sure to grab the Biotic Damage upgrade; it's a good one.
  9. 9
    Finally, hack the Computer Console you find. After that, approach the Relic to complete the mission. That's it for this DLC and your time with the Hammerhead!
