Last update: 29 October 2022
On this page of the Mass Effect 3 game guide you will find the walkthrough for the minor side quest Valhallan Threshold: Prothean Data Drives. The following walkthrough explains, among other things, where to eavesdrop on the Citadel soldier's conversation and on which planet the Protean data drives are located.
Received from: Soldier [Citadel: Bay D24]
Unlocked by: You will be able to start this mission after completing Priority: The Citadel #2 main quest.
Locate a human soldier during one of your visits to the Citadel. He can be found near the exit to the Normandy in [Citadel: Bay D24] and you must overhear his conversation. The soldier will want the Prothean data drives from the Valhallan Threshold, because they could be helpful in building the Crucible.
Return to the Normandy, open the galaxy map and plan a trip to the Valhallan Threshold. Once you're there (Raheel-Leyya system) fly to an adjacent system named Paz. 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 Gorvug (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 [Prothean data drives]. Once you have the drives return to [Citadel: Bay D24] and give them to the soldier.
Notice - If you have found the data drives 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 [Alliance Engineering Corps]
