What happens if you cure the genophage

User Info: plasmadood They don't find out in this game. Ah, ok. He lives and works on the crucible. I actually just had this happen. I did not cure the genophage and Wrex was alive this playthrough, after going to the Citadel and receiving the "Priority: Thessia" mission i went back t board the Normandy and Wrex was in the airlock waiting for me. He said he know's what i did and he wants to kill me. I don't know if you can talk your way out of it but i chose both renegade interrupts and ended up gunning him down.

It was pretty badass actually. No idea how it plays out if you have Wrex dead already. A Cute Asian chick who likes to game? Check out Eveinodds on twitch!!

For this choice to have occurred, you need to have completed Mordin's loyalty mission in Mass Effect 2 since this choice happens at the end of that mission. The data contains information discovered from Maelon's experiments on Krogan females and is a key factor in determining Eve's fate, which will be discussed later.

After some time passes after rescuing Eve from the Cerberus attack on Sur'Kesh, Mordin will propose using the Shroud on Tuchanka to dispense the cure. Once you initiate the mission, the Salarian dalatrass will tell Shepard that the Shroud was sabotaged in the past to prevent a cure from being released.

She will also offer Shepard an ultimatum. If Shepard sabotages the cure, then she will give them Salarian support and war assets in the war against the Reapers. If Shepard does not sabotage the cure, then she will not give them those assets. You will be facing Reaper enemies during the course of this mission. They primarily consist of husks, cannibals, marauders, brutes, and ravagers. It is best to have a good balance between combat, tech, and biotics-focused squadmates.

The mission will open with the clan leader, Wrex or Wreav, talking about how this will be a defining moment for the Krogan. Eve will notice that Shepard looks conflicted and ask them what's wrong.

Here you have the choice to reveal the shroud sabotage and dalatrass deal. But before you can, you are interrupted and have to deal with some Reapers. After that some krogan will be on the verge of fighting each other before Eve interrupts and gives a rousing speech to inspire the krogan. After this, the Krogan convoy heads to the Shroud. If you chose to try and reveal the shroud sabotage, then Eve will ask what you were trying to say. Here you can finally reveal the dalatrass deal uninterrupted.

It is important to note that if you wish to sabotage the cure, you should not reveal this. Eventually, he eventually finds out about the sabotage and it leads to his death, taking away from the krogan's military strength. On the other hand, if Wreav is the leader, the deception is never discovered. Furthermore, curing the Genophage grants nothing from the Salarians, while sabotaging the cure grants their First Fleet and Mordin if spared. It's anyone's guess as to if curing the Genophage or not is the best choice although, in regards to Renegade vs Paragon, there is one final thing to be wary of.

The Salarian First Fleet's military strength is points while Clan Urdnot and Wrex and the krogan mercenaries come out to That means for Renegade players, not curing the Genophage with Wrex as the leader will weaken Shepard's force, but having Wreav as leader gives points between both races. Either way, this mission requires the strongest of wills, and few are as qualified as Shepard. Share Share Tweet Email. Frankie P. Dauphin Jr Articles Published. The NavPoint for this mission is now available on Tuchanka.

Upon landing on the planet, the final journal update is shown:. Get Eve safely to the tower. You will be facing Reaper ground forces in this mission. A significant number of them will have armor. There will be a few shielded enemies, but only in one encounter, so factor that into your deployment plan. In contemplating the final section, you may wish to retrain your bonus ability to Defense Matrix if you have it available; its "purge" ability to instantly raise your shield may be helpful in withstanding very damaging attacks.

Note: After completing this mission, Priority: The Citadel II begins immediately upon your next return to the Citadel, rendering some side missions no longer possible to complete. As such, be sure to do the following side missions and interactions before attempting this mission:.

Additionally, all Leviathan missions taking place in Dr. Bryson's Lab will be postponed. This is a good time to finish the time-sensitive missions mentioned above. The genophage cure is to be dispersed from the top of the Shroud, a tower constructed by the salarians to stabilize the atmosphere of Tuchanka, and later covertly used by the turians to disperse the original genophage virus.

The salarian STG member that prepared the cure will travel to the Shroud with Eve and ensure that this takes place.

In the cutscene, you discover that the Reapers are using the Shroud to poison Tuchanka's atmosphere. It is impossible to land the shuttle at the Shroud site due to the presence of a Reaper Destroyer there. It is decided that the krogan will attack the Reaper from the ground while turian fighters fly air support.

The salarian Dalatrass then privately contacts Shepard and reveals that the Shroud was sabotaged to prevent dispersal of a cure. She suggests tricking the krogan into thinking that the cure has been deployed, and offers salarian support for the war effort if Shepard does so.

Shepard will then take a shuttle down to the surface. The Urdnot leader sent word for the krogan clans to assemble at the Hollows, a sacred krogan meeting ground. During the conversation, you can reveal the Dalatrass's offer to sabotage the cure or just remain silent.

If you choose to reveal, you will be interrupted by a message that the Hollows are under Reaper attack. When you reach the Hollows, you need to fight off waves of Husks swarming the area.

It's an arena-type pit with wide berth to run around in circles even with husks appearing from all directions, so putting them down should be easy enough. You will gain experience points after successfully holding off the Husks. In the ensuing scenes, if Wrex is alive, tensions mount between him and his brother Wreav, who is one of his most disloyal supporters; if Wreav leads, Jorgal Thurak takes his place. Eve intervenes during the rising conflict and makes a rallying call for the krogan to unite against the Reapers.

The krogan head out in a convoy towards the Shroud. While travelling, you're given the option again to reveal the Dalatrass's deal or keep quiet about it. Soon after, the convoy comes to an immediate halt, and the team dismounts to find out why. Running around is recommended, as the area is a treasure trove of loot.

A couple of krogan interactions are optional: you can speak to one fixing and complaining about a tomkah's combustion manifold , and there's another who was the owner of the Graal you took and wants whatever you kill with it as his "trophies". To kick off the next part of the plot, however, speak to the Krogan Scout, who tells you that the road is damaged and the convoy can't proceed further.

However, the turian air support has already begun their attack, and are too close to call it off. A fighter is shot down by the Reaper and hits a truck.
