Should i rewrite geth

Navigating the station is straightforward and you will be given additional insight into how geth society works and what possibly caused the main geth and the heretics to drift apart. These are factors to consider when pondering whether you should rewrite or kill the geth heretics. Most of the combat is close quarters, so be sure to stick with that. At the end, you will find a large room with a terminal that needs to be hacked in order to stop the heretics.

You will be required to hold out around the terminal until then. Thankfully, you get a good vantage point as you look down over a room where hostile geth will make their entry and turrets can be hacked for additional defense. Note that the turrets can only be hacked once since they will self-destruct after a little bit, so use them sparingly.

Once enough enemy waves are defeated it will be time to make a decision. Legion will let you decide since he is unable to come to a consensus about what to do and leaves the fate of his people in your hands. You can either destroy and kill a good portion of the geth, which is like killing a bunch of Legions in a way, or you can rewrite them to convince them that worshipping the Reapers is bad, but then you'll be taking away their free will in a way.

Rewriting the heretics will give you more paragon points whereas destroying them will give you more renegade points. Regardless of the choice made , you'll have to make a desperate escape from the station on a timer. Players that have opted for a more ruthless protagonist, on the other hand, may want to destroy the heretics, as doing so will award Renegade points in Mass Effect.

Additionally, Mass Effect players may want to think about how this decision will affect things in Mass Effect 3 , as rewriting the heretics will ultimately make the Geth stronger and destroying them will do just the opposite.

Without getting too deeply into spoiler territory, this materialize in 3 as bonuses and penalties to the Geth and Quarian War Assets, with the rewrite boosting the former and the destruction boosting the latter. It is also worth mentioning that this decision can have an impact on how the Geth and Quarian conflict resolves in the final game in the Mass Effect trilogy.

User Info: xKryptonKnightx. Even as paragon Shepard I was tempted to kill them. Simply rewriting them and all of a sudden they're reasonable? I'd say all heretics should be destroyed.
