Blue Suns Quests on the Citadel

Last update: 29 October 2022

On this page of the Mass Effect 3 game guide you will find the walkthrough for the side quest Aria - Blue Suns. This is one of 3 additional quests given by Aria T'Loak. Our guide explains where the leader of the Blue Suns is, how to resolve the conflict with General Oraka and how to gain support in the war with the Reapers.

Received from: Aria T'Loak [Citadel: Purgatory Bar]

Unlocked by: Received automatically after completing Citadel: Aria T'Loak.

You can begin this mission after meeting with Aria T'Loak in [Citadel: Purgatory Bar] and it concerns convincing the Blue Suns to support the war with the Reapers. The plan implies meeting with the Blue Suns leader - Darner Vosque - at the Citadel and for that you need to head to [Citadel: Port - Holding Area]. Darner can be found west of Bay A and during the conversation you will learn of his problems with the Turian General Oraka. The Blue Sun leader will want to eliminate him, but you don't have to make the decision just yet. Before leaving the location, speak to Aria T'Loak.

General Oraka can be found at [Citadel: Presidium Commons], nearby the Apollo cafe to be precise. Initiate the conversation to learn more of the conflict. If you want to finish the mission now (renegade), demand him to stop harassing the Blue Suns and order the General to be executed (lower right dialogue option). You don't need to kill him on personally, as the mission will automatically end.

If on the other hand you plan on helping the General in obtaining new weapon transports (paragon), choose the upper right dialogue options. In this case you need to head to the merchant Kannik found in the same location (eastern part of the Presidium). Kannik however won't want to sell you any weapons for credits, as he's only interested in rare artifacts.

In order to obtain the artifact for Kannik, you will of course first of all have to return on board Normandy and head to the galaxy map. Fly to Kite's Nest. After getting there (Harsa system), fly to the neighbouring Vular (make sure you have enough fuel!). Approach planet Vana (screen above) and press the right mouse button to scan it. Afterwards choose it and hold down the right mouse button to scan it more precisely. You need to find the white dot and send a probe (left mouse button to obtain the [Black Market Artifacts]. Return to Kannik in [Citadel: Presidium Commons] and give him the artifacts to receive an assurance that he will deliver the weapons in return. In order to finalize this mission, you need to meet with General Oraka once again.

Prizes for completing the mission:

1. [210 EXP]
2. [5000 credits]
3. War asset [Terminus Fleet]
