Mass Effect 3: Dekuuna: Code of the Ancients - walkthrough Mass Effect 3 guide, walkthrough
Last update: 29 October 2022
On this page of the Mass Effect 3 game guide you'll find the walkthrough for Dekuun's smaller side quest, that is, Code of the Ancients. This walkthrough explains, among other things, where to eavesdrop on the conversation with elcor and where in the galaxy the codex is hidden.
Received from: Angry elcor [Citadel: Purgatory Bar]
Unlocked by: You will be able to start this mission after completing Priority: The Citadel #2 main quest.
Locate an angry elcor during one of your visits to the Citadel. He can be found near the elevator in [Citadel: Purgatory Bar] and you must overhear his conversation with another person. The meeting will be about the elcor wanting to raise morale thanks to a rare codex found on Dekuuna.
Return to the Normandy, open the galaxy map and plan a trip to the Silean Nebula. Once you're there (Kypladon system) fly to an adjacent system named Phontes (this system becomes available after completing Priority: Rannoch main quest). Begin scanning this system (right mouse button), but be careful as therefore you can draw the Reapers' attention. Your point of interest should be a planet named Dekuuna (screen above).
Hover over the planet, zoom in and start scanning its surface more precisely by holding down the right mouse button. You need to find a white dot and send a probe (left mouse button). Doing this will allow you to obtain [Code of the Ancients]. Once you have the codex return to [Citadel: Purgatory Bar] and give it to the elcor.
Notice - If you have found the codex before starting this mission, you will be able to complete it right after it becomes unlocked, as a once found artifact cannot be lost.
Prizes for completing the mission:
- [15000 credits]
- War asset [Citadel Defense Force]
