There are 3 levels (10, 25, and 100).

I know that:
243560 Palladium
125947 Irridium
75377 Platinum
54933 Eezo

Is enough for the 25 level.  Does anyone have any idea about how much is needed to gain the 100 War Assets level?

Belhawk, what's your status on every cluster (ME2)? Everywhere 100%?

I took your numbers as reference and quickly gathered the resources.
My savegame now has:
252261 Palladium
218511 Iridium
137265 Platinum
73853 Element Zero

But still only 25 in ME3. I had to gather everything except for Palladium.

EDIT: A Golden Dragon, I saw your comments in another related thread about 150k and 70k. I will try that out later.

I'm getting tired of scanning. I'm before Horizon, with one cluser still needing to be scanned. Iridium, Palladium and Platinum are all 500,000+, with Element Zero at 100,000+. The last cluster has five-or-so systems. I'll try to soldier through and get those scanned before I advance the game.

I know 60% more systems will open up after Horizon, but even after I upgrade all of my stuff in Mass Effect 2, I'm hoping that I'll have scanned enough planets to get the full point bonus. Once I wrap up Mass Effect 2, before uninstalling it, I'll do a speed run through Mass Effect 3 to get to the point where I can check war assets. If I don't get the full 100, well, I guess I'll have to keep on scanning.

I tried 150k and 70k, it didn't work. I entered the orbit of every planet to get 100% in every cluster in addition to the aforementioned, it didn't work. What the hell is needed to get 100?!

Anything new on this? I've recovered every darn resource in ME1, I had 120k+ of each material in ME2 and I still only got 25, whereas some people with far less resources got 100 for some reason...

I wouldn't be surprised if the game actually checks for amount of scanned/depleted planets, rather than the actual amount of resources. Even though I "discovered" every single planet in the galaxy, I've only depleted about 5% of them.

That could be quite possible as I only depleted maybe two to three planets and obtain majority of my minerals via the Shadow Broker daily stuff and I only got 10 War Asset via minerals despite having 100k+ of the various minerals.

It seems that getting 100 War Asset Bonus requires 1,000,000 of mining resources. And apparently it doesn't matter how much of each resource you've got as long as it's 1M in total.
I had roughly:
iridium - 400K
palladium - 300K
platinium - 300K
eezo - 100K
It didn't take me long to mine it. It would have been even faster without reading all the planet's descriptions:)


That come from a separate thread. I think this good sir is right, as most stats I've seen were either below or above 1,000,000 (except for one above). I'm going to do some major scanning today until I have a save with 1000K+ and will post the results.

I got the full 100. I depleted every single planet, including DLC, prior to Horizon. After Horizon, I only launched beacons to find anomalies, although I did buy four mining data from the Shadow Broker base and then proceeded to deplete those four planets as well. Figured it was wise just to be safe.

Had well over a million combined minerals when all was said and done. Nearly two million.

I didn't go that far, but I planned too. I'll pull up my final numbers, but from what I recall, it was around 100,000 eezo, and 500,000K iridium and palladium (490K platinum). I got 100 war assets.

I mined a great deal of planets to depletion, but not all of them. For anyone familiar with the ME2 Galactic Checklist, I mined the first page and first column of the second page, as well as any mission planets.

Also, I had everything researched with the exception the LotSB weapon upgrades.

Ah, that saves me a lot of time, thanks!

Allright, so it is almost certainly not based upon the accumulated total amount of resources or any of the seperate resources. That leaves us with several possibilities (in no particular order):

a) At a certain point in the game, the resource amount is locked for some reason (the Suicide Mission?), meaning you have to collect your resources before that point.
B) The points are based on a discovered / depleted ratio. So the less planets you've found and the more planets you've depleted, the higher your War Assets score.
c) It's bugged.
d) You must have accumulated your resources through scanning, which means the resources obtained through the refined deposits or the Shadow Broker base doesn't count.

Now if only a BioWare employee would give us the solution ;).

On A: I did no mining beyond what I had to do for upgrades before the suicide mission. My mining began after I finished the Arrival and had nothing else to do in the game. Now, granted, I was mining up until this, but in my previous save, I did the same thing and only got 25 war assets when all of my resources were between 45K and 75K.

The rest of these, though, seem valid.

Did you 100% the galaxy?

No. It was 4am and my galaxy was not even 100%. I honestly gave up and thought I'd try my luck, and it worked out to 100 war assets.

What if there has to be a ratio between Pd, Ir, Pt, and Eezo?

I know how confusing this is, so if this helps any, here was the difference between my playthroughs:

Playthrough 1 - 25 War Assets
-lowest resource was platinum at 49k, and the rest were no higher than 75K.
-galaxy at 100% explored (I went into orbit around all of them, didn't even launch probes at most)
-everything researched except LotSB weapon upgrades
- there was a little post-Suicide Mission mining, but I tried to have all upgrades going in to the mission because I thought maybe it only counted those. If I did any post-Arrival mining, it wasn't very much

Playthrough 2 - 100 War Assets
- lowest resource was eezo at 100K, rest were 500K (well, plat was 490K)
- galaxy was not even close to 100% explored
--going off of my checklist, I mined every mission planet to depletion that I could, as well as the entire Caelston Rift, Crescent Nebula, Eagle Nebula, Far Rim, Hades Nexus, Serpent Nebula, and Hawking Eta. (Oh, and Viper Nebula as well, because I knew it would get blown up)
- all upgrades purchased except LotSB weapon upgrades
-up until the Suicide Mission, I had been mining just the mission planets with the intent of mining everything post-Arrival DLC (which I always do last). Once I finished that, I started mining the galaxies I listed above to depletion, then I just gave up :P

I hope that helps in any way...I wish there was a solid answer on this.

That's another possibility. However, from the numbers I've seen so far, that doesn't seem likely.

Thank you very much for this data! I only mined the mission worlds pre-Arrival as well, and I too got all the updates (including the LotsB). It's starting to get more and more likely that the War Assets are actually based on the depleted / found ratio, which would suck bigtime.

Just went in with 140k eezo and all other elements at 500k, and I still only got 25 points...

I'm hoping I'm wrong, but maybe this is tied into the quest in ME1 to get all those resources, like 20 gas, light metal, heavy metal, and rare resource. If so, then that is such a HUGE pain to do
