I think Reapers are similar to geth->they're independent but they're one, they have a database where they keep they memory, they thinking, everything. All you need is to find this and destroy/reprogram it. This could be called as the Reaper homeworld, and the only way to go there if you use the Citadell mass relay (this would fit to ME as both in ME1 and ME2 you gone through some incredibly dangerous relay). And also if you're at the reaper homeworld you can finally learn they motives, etc. And you can deside to either reprogram them to Cerberus purposes/Alliance-Citadell purposes/or just simply destroy it because it is toooo dangerous.

You are wrong. They are each a nation. Independent. Free of all weakness. They have no memory center.

With tech from the Collector base.



Oh, you blew it up?

Ooops...

Or perhaps the tech of the base will doom everyone due to the usualy failtastic Cerberus.
Or perhaps the base contains nothing.
It's impossible to say for sure since we know basicaly nothing about the base.

Sovereign probably lied about they true power. And not to mention he also said they don't have a beginning... seeing that human reaper larve they deffinately have a beginning... at least they material form, but they program maybe infinitive (or at least very oooooold). But well, I still think we will need to go through the citadell relay (romance scene before reaching the citadell). Would be cool.

We could just use a towel or maybe draw them in or near the Citadel and blow it up taking them out with it.

Because we all know that enemy fleets always arrive at a single point simultaneously and never ever send scouts through first or probes or establish beachheads before the main force 'lands.'

If they are that easy to defeat we probably could just talk them into quitting and/or self destructing....

I think that the only thing that effectively can destroy Reapers are Reapers, so how about some überhacking on the dormant Reapers in dark space and causing a civil war between their factions? Then the galaxies combined fleets salvage the tech of those perished and use it against the surviving Reapers.

This. A towel is the most important thing one can bring when traveling the galaxy, or hitchhiking in it.

Ummm, supernovas are really REALLY  BIG!!!

A  Reaper ship is what, a couple kilometers long give or take.  Last I checked, a supernova is something that can pretty much obliterate a solar system and beyond.  They emit so much energy and are so bright that for a month or two they're the brightest thing in a galaxy and during that time emit more energy than our Sun for its entire life.

Reapers are tough, the galaxy is MUCH tougher.

So if the Reaper fleet can be drawn to one system and Dark Enrgy or whatever is used to induce a supernova upon their arrival.... then it's possible to do some damage methinks.

The only natural force powerful enough to destroy the entire Reaper fleet is, in my opinion, the supermassive black hole that holds the galaxy together. Only it could have enough gravitational power to overcome all of the Reapers at once and pull them in to one crushing defeat. (Oh god that was a bad pun)

Of course, the problem lies in getting the Reapers to put themselves in that situation, lol. Not likely.

Easy, place the Citadel in that vicinity, then start the Relay and watch as Reaper after Reaper jumps itself right inot a badly punned death

Edit: Okay, not easy, but you know. It's a theory.

Differing factions of Reapers?  Well, the Geth had a math error and split so whose to say ALL  the Reapers are like minded too.

And then be overrun as the reapers come via a different citadel we didn't know about because we spent too much time and effort on a scheme involving this one. Look up the Maginot Line some time.

If the reapers could come through the citadel again, they would have already. Last time they needed a reaper to dock with it and agents on board. Why would that suddenly change?

Yeah, I meant creating different factions via the hacking bit. And then watch them tear eachother apart. Should be a nice new years eve fireworks display

If they are free of all weaknesses, then how was Sovereign defeated and how is it the reapers didn't make it through in ME1?

Rhetoric is rhetoric, and has to be taken with large grains of salt.

New Hubble Observations of Supernova 1987A Trace Shock Wave

A recent article on supernovas.  That something in another galaxy is so massive and powerful can be seen by a telescope orbiting our planet is pretty impressive.... and humbling.  The universe is a big and dangerous place.

I'm pretty sure that:
1) She was implying that we would turn ON the Citadel relay to allow them to come through once we moved it, and
2) She was joking. 

1) Don't let the pic fool you, she is in fact a he

2) He was in fact joking, how would the Citadel even be transported to the galactic core?

3) Another Citadel? If they had it, they would use it and not bother with the Citadel we know about. But the Maginot Line is however a very good reminder of being narrowminded about plans for war.

4) And as Drodjan wrote, I meant that we would activate the Citadel relay in the vicinity of the galactic core. But see point #2. It was a joke. I don't think it would be possible.

id like to see the fleet wage war on the whole galaxy reduce it to meerly nothing then shepard comes in and saves whats left. ending in the citadel almost burning to the ground.

[kingoflongbenton]

or each mission is to help a different race and in the end unites a galaxy to have one galactic battle to beat the reapers.

Ah. Well that's what I get for basing gender assumptions on avatars. xD Then again, to be correct I should have said "it" ... those asari, you know. 

Btw I'm glad no aliens in ME look like this:

Ok back on topic.

Hey, it can happen to the best!

And straying off topic, Salarians kinda look like At least a little.
But yes, thou art right, let's plot the destruction of the reapers instead.

That's kind of how I  vision it too.  Instead of recruiting squad members, we rally entire races and their fleets.  Not just Council space races but the Terminus as well.  Even pirates, terrorists and merc groups got to wise enough to throw in with this fight.

Highly likely and a recipe for an awesome spacebattle cutscene/cinematic.
