The problem is, to get the fewest assets you have to do Legion's loyalty mission and rewrite the Geth. I like the idea for KBABZ suicide mission, but can you do it with Legion on the mission and being loyal?

Going through the calculations, this is not possible unless you don't mind Legion surviving (not like he'll survive ME3!). Just save him for Hold the Line in the list below, where he will survive and all other events will play out as normal.


Speaking of which, I've updated my Worst Possible Import to wind up with just Morinth and Zaeed, who you can kill later. To get it, the main things you need to do is not purchase the Cannon, Armour or Shielding upgrades for the Normandy, sell Legion to Cerberus and side with Jack in the Jack/Miranda argument, as well as doing four Missions/Assignments before heading to the Collector Base.

























  • Because of the lack of Armor, Jack is killed.
  • Take Kasumi and Tali with you on your squad to
    the Cargo Bay. Because of the lack of better shields, Thane is killed.
  • Because of the lack of better cannons, Garrus is
    killed.
  • Pick Jacob for the Vent Specialist. He will be
    killed.
  • The Fireteam Leader doesn’t matter, pick anyone.
  • Because you took so long to get here, only
    Doctor Chakwas survives.
  • Pick Miranda for the Biotic Specialist. Bring Mordin
    with you. He dies.
  • For the second Fireteam Leader, pick Kasumi. She
    gets killed.
  • For the crew escort, pick Tali. Both she and
    Doctor Chakwas are killed.
  • For final boss squadmates, pick Morinth and
    Miranda. Zaeed and Tali stay behind, with Tali getting killed.

Trying to make Shepard the loneliest and most despised Commander in the galaxy to import for ME3, I killed 11 of 13 possible squadmates, with all dying after the Omega-4 relay (except Samara). Now the only remaining people on the Normandy SR-2 are a crippled pilot, an Asian thief, and an Asari succubus.

I had Kasumi and Morinth survive specifically because they are the least likely to show up for Mass Effect 3. Kasumi costs $7 to recruit (technically speaking) and Morinth is... well, Morinth.

All 12 loyalty missions completed. Normal recruitment mission order.

-----------------
Final Squadmates: Kasumi and Morinth
-----------------

Loyals: Jack, Jacob, Grunt, Garrus, Mordin, Legion, Thane, Kasumi, Morinth
Non-loyals: Miranda, Tali, Zaeed (avoid until later)
Normandy Upgrades: None
Chakwas & Crew: DEAD

Before the Omega-4 Relay
----Leave these quests for after the final mission:
----Zaeed Recruitment (*avoid him like the plague*)
----Zaeed Loyalty
-Side with Jack during the Miranda/Jack fight
-Hand over the evidence and traumatize Tali for her loyalty mission
-Bring Kasumi and Tali to fight the Oculus (so Legion dies)
-After the final mission, recruit Zaeed and kill him during his loyalty mission

Assignments
Vents - Jacob (dies)
Fire Team Leader - Any
Biotic - Miranda (bring Garrus and Tali, make sure Garrus dies)
Second Fire Team Leader - Grunt (dies)
Final boss squadmates - Miranda and Tali (both die)
Distraction Team - Morinth, Kasumi, Mordin (Mordin dies)

Deaths, before landing
Samara - Betrayed for Morinth, decapitated
Jack - No Armor Upgrade, laser'd
Legion - No Shield Upgrade, incinerated
Thane - No Weapon upgrade, impaled

Deaths, after landing
Jacob - Died by rocket to face
Garrus - Died by seeker swarm
Grunt - Died while closing second door
Mordin - Died holding the line, preferred to get job done and go home
Tali - Died at final boss
Miranda - Died at final boss
Zaeed - Died in a fire

-----------------
Final Squadmates: Kasumi and Morinth
 

Is it possible to play like this and only get Morinth and Zaeed surviving the SM-mission and then kill Zaeed on his loyality mission after SM-mission?

 Which might be strange beacuse I want to do Shadow Broker and Arrival after SM-mission, and do Shadow Broker with only one squadmate might be strange? Is it even possible?

No. You can have those two alive, but Zaeed cannot be killed

 

At least 2 squadmates plus Zaeed have to be alive for him to die on his loyalty mission. If not, he will always live. 

 

The game will not let the player have only one squadmate alive

Is it possible to recruit Zaeed before SM and do his loylatiy mission and let him die and do SM and just have two squadmates alive? Also I would change the surviving squadmates to Morinth and Thane, how do I do that?

The only way for Zaeed to die on his loyalty mission, is after the suicide mission. He will not die before the suicide mission

 

If you don't want to recruit everyone and only have Thane and Morinth alive , I would do this.

 

Miranda, Jacob, Jack, Grunt, Garrus, Mordin, Samara and Thane recruited.

Do Samara's loyalty mission and choose Morinth who will kill her mother

Do Thane's loyalty mission

get Thannix cannon upgrade

no armor or shiled upgrade for ship Jack will die and take Thane and Mordin to fight the oculus which will lead to the death of Garrus

sent Jacob through the vent. He will die

Do you want to save the crew? If not, send Grunt, he will die for not being loyal

Have Thane do the bubble. Bring Miranda and Mordin. Mordin will be taken by the seeker swarm

Have Morinth be 2nd fireteam leader. She will survive no matter what since 3 have to remain. 2 to fight the reaper and 1 to hold the line

Send Thane and Morinth to fight the reaper. They will live since both are loyal

Miranda will die holding the line 

 

If you want to recruit everyone

Just do Samara's loyalty mission and choose Morinth and do Thane's loyalty mission

have Thannix cannon upgrade

no armor upgrade will have Jack killed

take Kasumi and Mordin to fight the oculus and Legion will be killed with no shield upgrade

send Garrus through the vent. He will die

send Grunt back with the crew, he will die

Tali dies as 2nd fireteam leader

Thane does bubble. Miranda and Jacob go with Shepard. Jacon is taken by the seeker swarm

take Miranda and Kasumi to fight the reaper. Both will die

Morinth, Thane, Zaeed and Mordin hold the line. Mordin should die not being loyal

Morinth, Thane and Zaeed survive

Do Zaeed's loyalty mission and save the workers then leave him to die

Morinth and Thane go to ME3

Wow, thanks. I want to recruit everyone on this playthrough. I want to play every mission(loyality, assignments...).

You wrote that Mordin is not loyal? Does that mean that I have to skip his loyality mission? If I have to skip that mission, what is the outcome then on ME3 regarding the genophage?

If you want Morinth and Thane to be the only one's to survive, don't do any of the loyalty mission's other wise others will survive

 

With Mordin dead, another salarian will take his place in ME3.

Strange, because when last time when I played like this and only got Morinth and Kasumi alive(I followed the original post in this thread) and did every loyality mission.(Lost Kolyat in Thanes mission, gave the evidens in Tali's mission, let Morinth Survive...). But if I want to let Thane live instead of Kasumi I have to skip the loyality missions?

If you don't have the Thannix cannon upgrade, Thane will die. With the upgrade, it means their is an extra squadmate to find a way to die on the mission. Why would you want to do loyalty missions if they will die in the mission?

 

You can do it the way the first post if you want. You still have to get the upgrade for the ship for Thane to live. Also that post has no one escorting the crew back. They will die. Do you want the crew to die?

 

If you don't want to save the crew, you will have 3 that survive with Zaeed still to recruit. If you want to save the crew, send an escort back who is not loyal and he/she will die. That will give you Morinth and Thane, when you take them to fight the reaper, surviving and then kill Zaeed on his loyalty mission.

I dont want anybody in the crew to survive either, the reason why I want to play the loyality missions are the renegade points, experince points and that I love to play it :)

So that make things clear, many answers here :)

 

How should I do on the SM(if I have done all the loyality missions) if I dont want the crew/all squadmates to survive except Thane and Morinth(and Zaeed)?

^Morinth getting "assimilated" in ME3 won't earn her a spot on wall. Better to have Samara in ME3 so she can blow her brains out on Lesuss.

I want as few characters as possible in M3 also, Morinth will not survive... Also it is more renegade to have her.

Does getting the FBA Couplings affect the SM in anyway? Or is it only the normal upgrades in the terminal that does affect?

The SM is totally unaffected by them.

The FBAs only enable a single dialogue in Me2 (with the possibility to win/lose some credits) and alters one or two lines in ME3. (If Ken and Gaby survive).

I take it you're still trying to kill everyone that can be killed? Nothing wrong with that.

 

If interested, take a look at this playthrough I did a few months ago

If you tell Ken "no gambling" then you don't get credits. Instead you get XP.

A question about this, if I understand right I should recruit Zaeed before SM-mission?

I'm trying to figure out a way to have only Morinth and Miranda survive. I've already recruited both Zaeed and Kasumi because I'm planning to run with them for most of the game, and I want to do as many loyalty missions as I can especially if I can "fail" them (but I don't mind waiting with Zaeed's loyalty mission until after the end and then killing him there so Morinth, Miranda & Zaeed surviving the SM is also good).

I've searched the thread but haven't quite found the solution yet. Anyone help? :)

Are you recruiting everyone? You mention doing as many loyalty missions as possible. Depending on if you recruit everyone and doing many loyalty missions, it might be hard to have only Miranda, Zaeed and Morinth be the only one's to survive. Do you want to save the crewmembers?
