This game guide for Mass Effect 3: Leviathan is a compendium, and it contains a thorough description of challenges offered by this DLC, alongside with necessary and supplementary information required for its completion. The contents of the guide are as follows:

  • a detailed solution to the new mission;
  • description of locations;
  • description of conversations with encountered NPCs;

At the end of the descriptions, you can find notes concerning the next mission. In practice, this means that individual chapters of the guide correspond to the sequence of missions in the main mission.

For your convenience, the guide has been divided into chapters corresponding to the individual locations visited during the gameplay - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

For your convenience, the guide has been divided into chapters corresponding to the individual locations visited during the gameplay. Since there are no side missions in the DLC, the layout of this guide is linear - same as the main mission offered by the DLC.

To prevent any item to be missed by the player, each chapter features a part named

To prevent any item to be missed by the player, each chapter features a part named "treasures" that describes all items and upgrades available in a given location. Thanks to that, the contents of the DLC will be more accessible.

Colour coding

The guide has been colour-coded in the following manner:

Red corresponds to the names over the missions.

Blue corresponds to the visited locations.

Green corresponds to the items you find, both the ones that you cannot take with you, as well as those that the game allows you only to examine (e.g. a palmtop, a terminal).

Orange corresponds to the war assets that you acquire throughout the game, intel and experience points. In reference to the latter one, the acronym EXP has been used. For example [800 EXP] means that: an activity you can when as much as 800 experience points.

When to perform the mission offered in the DLC?

You gain access to the additional contents automatically, after the completion of the Priority: Palaven mission. After you return to Normandy SR-2 approach your personal terminal and receive the message from Admiral Hackett. That is when a new mission appears in your journal- Citadel: Doctor Bryson. This is the only mission offered by the Leviathan DLC.

If you've decided to perform the mission right after you come back from Palaven, before setting out the need to need to meet EDI on the Normandy deck 3 - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you've decided to perform the mission right after you come back from Palaven, before setting out the need to need to meet EDI on the Normandy deck 3. Regardless of the chosen dialogue options, the new character will join up with your team. The artificial intelligence will aid you during the performance of the mission - it's only the artificial intelligence that may help you handle some of the tasks. When it takes its place next to Joker, you'll be able to set out to the Citadel, where you can find the man you are looking for (see: Doctor Bryson's Lab I).

You don't need to take up the mission right after you escape from Palaven - it will be available in your terminal throughout the considerable part of your play - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You don't need to take up the mission right after you escape from Palaven - it will be available in your terminal throughout the considerable part of your play. Remember, however, that you should perform it before Priority: Cerberus' Headquarters -otherwise you won't be able to access several key locations and the mission will fail!

Quest giver: Adm. Hackett [Normandy SR-2: personal terminal]

Means of unlocking the quest: Receive an urgent message from Admiral Hackett on your personal terminal.

After you read the orders from Admiral Hackett, go to the Citadel. During docking, location selection screen will appear-Dr. Bryson is to be found in his Lab (see the screen below). It is an entirely separate location which you can reach only during docking (you cannot go there or from the Citadel itself). You will be accompanied in your journey by EDI, who will join you automatically.

After you arrive, talk to the scientist - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After you arrive, talk to the scientist. Unfortunately during the dialogue you won't get to know anything useful, and the doctor himself will die shot by his assistant. That is when two sequences will appear, allowing you to choose between an amicable or hostile gaming style. The former allows you to overpower the assassin (Idealist path), whereas the latter will allow you to hear the enemy firmly (Renegade path). Regardless of how you choose to behave, this will not influence the course of action-you also won't acquire any additional reputation points. Your choice this is of no significance whatsoever.

Your task is to find anything to allow you to trace Leviathan - a mysterious creature discovered by Dr - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Your task is to find anything to allow you to trace Leviathan - a mysterious creature discovered by Dr. Bryson. The search is neither long nor problematic-after the cutscene you'll see in front of you an audio journal that you should play now. After the recording ends, you will be granted [100 EXP] and you need to open the galaxy map that is located in the lab's main chamber. After using it you will you will be rewarded with [100 EXP] and you will be given a new mission - to find any clues that would help you determine Bryson's co-workers' whereabouts.

To the right of the map you can find Prothean Artifact hidden behind a huge pane of glass - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

To the right of the map you can find Prothean Artifact hidden behind a huge pane of glass. Use it to apply the first of the search filters to the map, which will allow you to find the doctor's co-workers. This way you will be awarded [60 EXP]. In the corner of the room, between the doors, you should see a desk with two computers on it. Start them to apply another filter - this time marking blackout crimes. After that, you will be awarded another [60 EXP].

Move to another room - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Move to another room. To your right hand side there is a doctor's daughter's drawing on the desktop (irrelevant) and two datapads. Use them to apply Raknii movement filter to the map. Thanks to that you will be awarded another [60 EXP].

Go to the right corner of the chamber to switch on the display and see the scheme of alien sightings. Use it to get another filter and [60 EXP].

Turn left and have a look at the meteorite and next to the optical instrument - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Turn left and have a look at the meteorite and next to the optical instrument. This way you will be given another one of filters that you are after (concerning element zero) and [60 EXP] the last one of the traces is a bit problematic. Approach of the desk next to the remains of the Sovereign and use the two datapads that you find there. You'll need the special password for one of them. Climb the stairs to the doctor's bedroom and find there a drawing with the password on it. Then, go to the encrypted datapad. At this moment you will be awarded [60 EXP], and the last one of the filters that shows the Reapers' movements.

Equipped with all six clues, approach the map and apply individual search filters - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Equipped with all six clues, approach the map and apply individual search filters. Some of them do not give you any important information - they are just dead ends. To determine the exact whereabouts of your destination - i.e. Dr. Garneau, with whom Bryson worked - you need to turn on the following filters: the element zero, the Reapers, and the alien sightings. Only in this combination can they lead you to the right system, but you can also go out and find them on your own by flying into various parts of the galaxy. This, however, is a time-consuming and pointless process, and additionally, if you manage to narrow down the scope of your search to one area only, you will be rewarded with [280 EXP]. That is why pinpointing the exact system is definitely more profitable an option.

If you want to you may leave the Lab-to do this use the quick transport vehicle that is parked outdoors - Dr. Brysons Lab I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

If you want to you may leave the Lab-to do this use the quick transport vehicle that is parked outdoors. Before you do, however, search around the place-you can find a number of useful items here.

unlocking a new area: Mahavid in Caleston Rift

Treasures

Questgiver: none

Means of unlocking the quest: determine doctor Garneau's whereabouts during your stay in Dr. Bryson's laboratory in the Citadel.

After you leave the Citadel, go to the Caleston Rift and go to the Aysur subsystem. The asteroid you are searching for is not visible on the map of the system using the scanner installed on Normandy and find Mahavid. You will find it in the meteorite belt that surrounds the entire area. Then go to the planetoid.

After you get there go straight ahead at and take the lift down to the lower level of the building - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After you get there go straight ahead at and take the lift down to the lower level of the building. Prepare yourself for a fight with Reaper spawns - up ahead you will see a brute and two marauders. There is quite a long distance between you and them, so you should have no problems with exterminating them. After a moment yet another brute will turn the corner, but you will have no problems defeating him. If you've lost too much ammo during the combat, there is a small deposit of it in the right side part of the room right next to the balustrade.

Climb the stairs to the next level of the building - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Climb the stairs to the next level of the building. Collect ammo and the medkit in the corner [100 exp]. Next go to the passworded door (Shepard's omnikey should have no problem dealing with it) and watch the cutscene. People you are about to meet are trifle odd, but you do not need to worry about them-they will not harm you. Do not expect them, however, to help you-none of them has ever heard about Dr. Garneau, and the lift to the further part of the facility has been damaged. In practical terms this means that you may have a look around the area and find two datapads: to the right [1250 credits] and at the left hand side of the room [2500 credits].

After you reach the broken door at the end of the room, youll be given a new mission: to repair the lift - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After you reach the broken door at the end of the room, you'll be given a new mission: to repair the lift. To do so, approach the terminal of the repair drone that you will find to the left and some of the robot. When you see that pulsating sphere, direct it to the broken installation. Once the obstacle is removed you will be awarded [10 EXP], and a new area will open up.

Pass through the door and start the lift - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Pass through the door and start the lift. After you reach the higher level, have a look around the corridor-to your the left will find an abandoned datapad [1250 credits]. Regardless of the door you choose, you will enter the mineral works. In the corner of the room leading up to the crew's quarters find a terminal that will give you [1250 credits]. On the table with flowers on it you will find yet another datapad [1250 credits].

Go right and past the security terminal - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go right and past the security terminal. Open the passworded door and enter the room where there is a secret conference being held. On the rest of the rest of the couch will find another datapad [1250 credits]. Go through the door on the right and make yourself comfortable in a small watch room. Ignore the soldier standing there and have a look at the datapad [2500 credits] in the armchair. Thanks to the datapad you will learn the facility employee's ID and you'll get access to the crew's quarters. Go there and take ultralight materials II (pistol). The datapads that you find there will not contribute in any way to your quest, so you can ignore them.

Make your way back to the conference room and break the password to the locker - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Make your way back to the conference room and break the password to the locker. After you enter it turn your attention to the datapad [2500 credits] lying to the right. Thanks to the datapad you'll learn the password to the security terminal and you'll be rewarded with [10 EXP]. In the very same room you can find high velocity barrel II (SMG). After you loot the location for all the valuable items, leave.

Go to the security terminal - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Go to the security terminal. Use it and you will be given a pass to the medical station and [250 EXP]. Pass through the conference room once again and open the door to the hospital that has been locked thus far. Once inside, grab the medkit [100 exp] and have a look into the darkroom. At this moment you'll see a cutscene concluding in the escape of the possessed Dr Garneau [200 exp].

Start chasing the man - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Start chasing the man. Open the locked door with a password and climb up the ladder. You will find yourself standing outside of the base. Get ready to put up a battle with several husks-keep them at a distance and use the team power. Next jump over a hole between levels and enter the pedestal. Collect the recoil system II (SMG) and jump over the barrier.

As you go further eliminate two husks and get ready for a tough combat with marauders and ravagers - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

As you go further eliminate two husks and get ready for a tough combat with marauders and ravagers. There is a whole lot of them, so you should need to pass between covers and successively eliminate next enemies. When the second wave comes, expect even more enemies, and in the third one - two bloodthirsty banshees. Keep them at a distance and keep firing your guns at them. Avoid the their projectiles - they are poisonous, and therefore very dangerous. When you deal with them, go to the door at the end of the location. Kill the ravager and two husks. Then have a look around the room-apart from the ammo you can find there a medical kit [100 exp] and Cranial Trauma System II (pistol). When you try to open the start door, it will turn out that someone disconnected them from the energy supply. You will be given [400 EXP] and a new mission- to transport the repair drone to the damaged generators.

Do not move far away from the drone - when you are outside of the reach of its radiation, the mechanism will be permanently damaged and you will fail the mission - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Do not move far away from the drone - when you are outside of the reach of its radiation, the mechanism will be permanently damaged and you will fail the mission. That is why you need to follow it, avoid the enemies and fire your gun and them at the same time. It isn't easy, because hordes of marauders, husks and ravagers renew s all the time. They will stop only after both of the damaged units are repaired. If you've waited for too long, you should expect a fight with a banshee-that's no jokes anymore. That is why you should attempt to complete this part of your mission as soon as possible [400 exp]. If the combat proves troublesome you can always use Reaper Blackstar, which you can find in the corner of the room-you can kill any enemy with just one round.

Make it back to the door that has been blocked so far and walk through it [200 exp] - Mahavid - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Make it back to the door that has been blocked so far and walk through it [200 exp]. Watch the cut scene in which you can learn the truth about Garneau and the facility you are in. Talk to the survivors and go back to Normandy. You are up for another investigation at Dr. Bryson's laboratory.

Before the lift comes, you are up for an easy battle with a banshee. You may eliminate it by means of explosive barrels located in between you and the creature.

After a few moments the shuttle will arrive, that you can escape on. It pays off, however, to kill each and every one of the enemies. This way you will be able to access the room at the end of the gap, where you can find the last of the medkits [100 exp] as well as data [2500 credits].

unlocking of the area 2181 Despoina in the Sigurd's Cradle (Psi Tophet system)

Quest giver: none

Means of unlocking: determine Leviathan's whereabouts.

This quest isn't very complicated, but it requires paying a lot of attention. Unlike earlier, you're not supposed to explore the surroundings or look for any switches, but rather to put up good, old-fashioned fight. From the very beginning you have to be prepared to match up against a huge number of cannibals and marauders aided by a few husks and brutes. Your enemies will be attacking in waves so you will be able to find a moment to catch your breath and reload the weapon. Still, you will have to be prepared for a bit of a bloodshed.

After the shuttle lands, run up to the first cover and get prepared for the mass attack stop them donate your enemies want up to another and from Pro one: to another - 2181 Despoina I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After the shuttle lands, run up to the first cover and get prepared for the mass attack stop them donate your enemies want up to another and from Pro one: to another. At the same time, look around the surroundings because throughout the whole of the ship (being one big and enclosed arena) has been peppered with equipment (see: treasures). Leviathan's artifacts are of no significance whatsoever; that's why you should waste no ammo on destroying them.

Once you handle a sufficient number of enemies, the shuttle will go airborne and crash at the other end of the platform - 2181 Despoina I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Once you handle a sufficient number of enemies, the shuttle will go airborne and crash at the other end of the platform. This is equivalent to another the monster invasion, which will protect both you and their rescue vehicle. Although Lieut. Cortez will be asking for immediate help you do not need to hurry; he's invincible so he is not in danger. When you kill off all the enemies, you will be given [450 exp] and you'll be able to talk to your pilot.

. After a short conversation youll be given a new mission-recharging the generators that will open the gates to the battle mech - 2181 Despoina I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

After a short conversation you'll be given a new mission-recharging the generators that will open the gates to the battle mech. The missions seems difficult but it should pose no problem. Take a power-cell from the Lieutenant, and go to the nearest socket, which you can find to the left . When the cell runs flat, go back for the next one. You should repeat the operation until the blast door is open. Don't worry about enemies while doing that - eliminate only those that pose the most immediate threat.. The remaining ones may be well ignored. If you find the fight problematic, you may equip Hydra rocket launcher that you will find near Cortez - it is very effective against brutes.

As soon as the blast door opens, run inside, and get into the Tryton Suit (thats what the mech has been named) - 2181 Despoina I - Walkthrough - Mass Effect 3: Leviathan - Game Guide and Walkthrough

As soon as the blast door opens, run inside, and get into the Tryton Suit (that's what the mech has been named). Their equipment is very powerful and that's why you will have no problems eliminating the remaining enemies. Once all of them fall, approach Lieutenant Cortez and watch the cut scene. This is the last occasion to search for useful equipment and its location-when you go underwater, there will be no coming back!
