Mass Effect 3: Citadel: Medical Supplies - walkthrough

On this page of the Mass Effect 3 game guide you'll find the walkthrough for the Citadel's minor side quest - Medical Supplies. This walkthrough explains, among other things, how to start negotiations for medical supplies and how to behave during the conversation with Tactus.

Received from: Doctor Chakwas or doctor Michel [Normandy SR-2: Crew Deck]

Unlocked by: You will be able to start this mission after completing Priority: The Citadel #2 main quest.

Specialist Traynor will inform you about the possibility of starting this mission some time after completing Priority: The Citadel #2 main quest and it will occur when you'll approach her station in [Normandy SR-2: Combat Information Center]. Follow her advice by going to the medical station in [Normandy SR-2: Crew Deck] to have a conversation with doctor Chakwas or doctor Michel (it depends who was invited to join the Normandy crew - more on that in the descriptions of side quests Citadel: Doctor Chakwas and Citadel: Doctor Michel).

One of the doctors will ask you for help in trading Normandy's civilian medical supplies for much needed military medical supplies.

Return to the Citadel and use the elevator to travel to [Citadel: Port - Holding Area]. Go to cargo hold B, locate Tactus and initiate a conversation with him. The turian will refuse to exchange the medical supplies on equal terms and it'll be up to you how to resolve this situation.

The worst solution by far is to hand over the civilian medical supplies for free (upper right dialogue option), unless you only care about scoring a lot of paragon points. You won't succeed trying to convince the turian to renegotiate their deal (lower right dialogue option) and instead you'll end the conversation. The best endings are only available if you've sufficiently raised Shepard's reputation, because either one of them can convince Tactus to change his mind (upper left special dialogue option or lower left special dialogue option). It doesn't matter how you've ended the meeting, because you must report back to doctor Chakwas/Michel to officially end this quest.

Prizes for completing the mission:

1. [375 EXP]
2. [Medi-Gel Capacity Upgrade] (ability of carrying one additional medi-gel; only if doctor Michel gave you this quest)
3. [Medi-Gel Efficiency Upgrade] (stronger effects of using the medi-gel; only if doctor Chakwas gave you this quest)
4. Intel data [Med Bay Surgery]
