  Archon Visor     

Go to the Persius Veil and dock with the Dreadnaught. You will have to take Tali with. Take at least one person with Overload. You could take a second if you already have Overload. You'll have to go on a spacewalk. You are wearing mag boots and will have to make your way to the far side with them. If you reach a point that you can cross, start walking to the side until you find a spot where you can proceed.Once inside the ship

proper, you'll have to climb over some debris to get to a ladder and climb to the catwalk above. When you get there, turn right and jump over the new gap. Go through that door and the next one. In the next room, go forward and take a left. You'll find theAirlock Controls that you can access. Use it to let your party in. Head back a little ways and get up to the catwalk above to hit theSecondary Airlock Controls.

Grab the Arc Pistol and then follow Tali through the doorway. Make your way along the walkway and you'll find a large computer. On the right side will be a Sniper Rifle Enhanced Scope. Continue along the walkway until you find a computer on the left side. You will then be attacked by Geth. You will have to work your way through the Geth but they shouldn't be too tough since these are just the introductory versions. The only real challenge will be a Rocket Trooper. Make sure to Overload and Sabotage every chance you get to make things easier. Once shields are down, use Biotics if you like but usually you don't have to.

Work through the area and drop down a ladder. Continue along and surprise the lone Geth which will start a small long range skirmish. After the fight, move along this path but watch out for the mines. When you activate one, quickly roll backwards to avoid it. Further along the walkway will be Geth Data in a terminal on the left. Salvage that. Go through the door opposite the Geth Data.

In the next room, move up the right side for a Signal Terminal and the Archon Visor. Toward the end, activate the console on the left, then go through the door. In the next room, use the Network Terminal. Turn left and make your way up the hallway. On the right side of the room will be the Geth Pulse Rifle. Go through the door.

In the next room will be a tough fight with Geth Hunters. You have to really focus on the Geth Hunters or they will slide right in and kill you. As soon as you see one, hit it with a rapid fire weapon to keep it's shields down for a moment, then hit it with overload. Finally, kill it or use Sabotage to temporarily turn it to your side. Do this with each of the Hunters as you find them. Make sure you look for the shimmers. It won't be easy to find them all. Once they are dead, clean up the troopers in the room. Go down to the middle area of the room and follow the center around to the right for a Data Console. Go up to the back of the room and grab the SMG Scope next to the Operations Center Console. There is some Geth Data just to the right so make sure you get that as well.

One you activate the Operations Center Console, you'll be attacked by a rather large group of Geth. Watch out for Hunters. I recommend you move to the far right side and let the Geth come up the stairs at you. This will make it easier to see everything approach since you don't have to worry about a Hunter sneaking past your squad. Let the Hunters come up, Hack one and Overload a second if it appears. Clean the two up, rinse and repeat until they are thinned out. Then just clean up the stragglers. When you are ready, proceed through the door at the back left of the room.

Move down the long hallway, walk around the catwalk and go down the ladder. Do that again and after the second ladder, watch the left side for more Geth Data. At the bottom, go through the door and enter the room that has the energy pulses being shot. You'll hearing a whining sound that indicates that it will shoot. When it revs up, get behind cover and when it winds down, move. Move through this hallway slowly because you will be attacked by Geth and you don't want those Hunters right on top of you. Move up slowly until you trigger the Geth ambush and just work on them from range and they'll soon fall. Once they are dead, go up the ramp on the right, over the walkway, down the ramp on the other side and you should see a little path that leads to a console. Activate the console to deactivate the gun.

In the next area, you'll have to sprint to the end before the gun reactivates. When you get to the other side, you'll find yourself in a similar gun tunnel as you were before. Immediately take cover because it's going to start firing again. Get in cover and slide to the left. You'll be attacked by more Geth. Sabotage the Rocket Trooper that stands on the catwalk at the back. Watch out for the Hunter in this room though he may not appear until you advance further. Kill the Geth around here and head up the ladder to your left. Follow the catwalk to where the Rocket Trooper was and use the height to kill any stragglers. When you go down the ladder, more Geth will appear but they won't be any different from other Geth groups and you'll have some good distance. Just watch out for Hunters.

When this second group is dead, make your way to the end and go left up the ramp. At the top, bypass the door and then go through the next door. Get on the elevator and then jump off. Follow the walkway around and climb the large ladder. Collect the Med Kit from the nearby computer and then go through the door at the end. Inside, you may run into an old friend. Free him to terminate the Reaper Signal. Just to the right of the Geth will be an Assault Rifle Precision Scope. Grab that and head over to the lift. You'll go upstairs and then deactivate the shackles to set him free.

After you do this, you'll be attacked by a whole group of Geth. There will be Troopers, Rocket Troopers, a Hunter and two Geth Primes (who have armor instead of health and use both drones and auto-turrets). Most of the enemies shouldn't pose too much of a problem. Fight them from long range and use any spaces to the left to get better angles on them if you need them. If you see a Geth Prime but you're already swamped with enemies, they can be hacked. Do so and clear out as many minor Geth as you can before it starts to attack again. At this point you will have to kill it because you can't hack it again but hopefully you should only be fighting the Prime now. Repeat this process and just make sure you keep your eyes peeled for any Hunters lurking about. When you make it around the room, you'll find that you need to make it to the Hangar. Just before the door leading out of this room will be some Geth Data on the left. Run along the relatively straight path and when you fall to a lower level, climb the ramp to the right to get back to the upper level. Be prepared for a Paragon Interrupt in the following conversations.
