I have a question!

Could it be that the hypothetical Volus engineer is called "mercenary", and the adept "protector", and that they're both the same so we only get 2 instead of 4 Volus?

Assuming we're getting them, of course. I'm still... I don't know what to say, really.


They are listed as separate things.

However, anything is possible at this point. These are merely variable names, not actual data for the characters themselves. Variables names are not always changed if they decide to change the character. The Arc Pistol is still listed as the Thor in the game files, and the Wraith is the Striker.

This would be the first time that the "placeholder" name was ever something that already was something in the ME universe, though.

Variable for tracking progress with the "Quarian Minigun".

Sounds like fun.


All my money, take it.


Holy crap yes, this is the exact thought I had and made me LOL.  Good stuff. :o

A few more things for categories of challenges:

Squad Elite
> Weekend Events
> Extraction
> First Aid
> Missile

Spectre Mastery
> Survive
> Points
> Waves
> Medals

Weapon categories obviously include all weapons of that class, and DLC categories include everything from that DLC =P

Mass Effect seems to just be one massive meta challenge consisting of everything.

Seriously though, thank you for Datamaning. We love you.

Hmm... No Salarians. That's kind of unfortunate. At this rate, they'll have the fewest kits of all the different races. Gotta love new Turians, though.

I sincerely hope Bioware just trolled the dataminers with the Volus.


What? There's motherflippin' Volus in this dlc? Dammit! That totally ruined the excitement I had about Retaliation.

No new units for Reapers?


I was really hoping for a Reaper-Volus, that would somersault towards you, and explode, ala a Ticker from the Gears of War games.

OT:  16 new classes?  If this is true, this DLC might be the greatest thing Bioware has ever done.  I think I can confirm the Krogan Shaman, if you look in the trailer it appears as if a Krogan in the same armor as the Vanguard uses Pull.

Particularly interested in the new Batarians, Asari, and Volus.  Will any of them replace my Batarian Sentinel?  Unlikely, but I'll try them all out.

Time to start playing with myself it seems.

Also 4 Volus seems... excessive, not that I mind!

More Geth is good too.


Maybe a bit too much info. about your bedroom manners...:whistle:

May as well just throw lore out the window. There are more voluses in the military than salarians and krogans it seems.


You must have missed the Krogan Shaman (Adept) mentioned at the top, so if there are four Volus, that would make them even. That being said, that only means the diversity in kits is greater, not that there are more on the battlefield, and you can be certain that both Salarians get a lot of play (even though they mostly have stayed out of the war save for STG units and a few other specialists; they even give among the lowest war asset bonuses of all Council races--so much for lore, eh?).

Every race should have at least 4, as four is the magic number.


Of death.


In Eastern lore, yes, but it's generally good luck in the West.

Can we assume that this stuff will be retroactive?

I assume that "N7 Mastery" is related to all N7 characters (Earth DLC)

Any idea how high the values are for them? Or not that much information yet? Not being retroactive is going to be a pain if they're incredibly high.

It looks like N7 Mastery is related to promoting, while Earth Mastery is the N7 characters.

All the patch gives is names of what is tracked, not how much of it we need.
