Task: Lost Brother — masseffect

Nigel McCoy's brother Dash died on Eos. To honor Dash, Nigel has asked you to place a family pendant at a spot on the planet where his brother went to think.

Acquisition

Prerequisite: Nexus Reunion

Speak to Nigel McCoy (marked with a) in the Cryo Bay aboard the Hyperion. Note: You must speak to him before Meridian: The Way Home as the cryo bay will become unavailable after that mission.

Walkthrough

Like many tasks, this is a simple "go to location and complete the objective" one. You aren't even given an in-game model of the object you're supposed to be transporting, the mission just completes once you interact with the marker at the mission location.

Place pendant at the location on Eos

Nigel's brother sure knows how to pick picturesque thinking places on a radiation-blasted hellhole

From Site 1: Promise, follow the tire tracks leading west, drive uphill, then turn right and follow the edge of the cliff until you reach the map marker. Interact with the location of the map marker to place the pendant.

Aftermath

Nigel sends you an email after mission completion. He also disappears from the cryo bay.

The brothers McCoy

To: Ryder
From [sic] Nigel McCoy

Dear Pathfinder Ryder,

My brother Dash was my best friend. It still pains me that he's gone, that we won't build the future here in Andromeda together. But knowing that our family pendants are united does my heart good.

When my wife and I settle here and start a family, our firstborn will carry my brother's name. And hopefully he or she will become my new best friend.

My sincerest hopes accompany you and your team.

Nigel

In the early versions of the game, it was necessary to pass through a Hazard Level 3 zone to reach the target location.
