Complete the Mass Effect Excavate Resources mission on Taitus by bypassing a mech and finding power cells.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Locate the mission on the Galaxy map as Excavate Resources, found in the Caleston Rift, Talava System, on the planet Taitus (the 3rd planet).
  2. 2
    Bypass the mech to activate it.
  3. 3
    The mech will slowly travel through the canyon, clearing obstacles, but will stop due to power loss at certain points.
  4. 4
    Each time the mech stops, locate a nearby power cell and insert it to resume its movement. You do not need to accompany the mech; you can run ahead to find the cells.
  5. 5
    The mech will eventually explode while clearing the path.
  6. 6
    Collect the platinum to end the mission.
Tips
  • The mission features only two enemies: two Varren.
  • You have an opportunity to ambush the Varren.
  • The rest of the mission is relaxed after dealing with the enemies.
