No One Left Behind
ME2: Keep your team alive through the suicide mission


Sounds hard, but actually really easy, first, you need to have all your crew loyal BEFORE going for the ""Acquire Reaper IFF"" mission.

After the mission, go speak with Legion and immediatly go for Legion loyalty mission. By doing this you avoid the death of the cerberus crew. After that you will be ready for the omega 4 relay

For the collector base, use this :



For the Endgame, every teammate equal a number of points, and you need an average of 2 to avoid casualties

Jack/Kasumi/Tali/Mordin are the weakest members, to avoid death :

----- Put Jack as the escort for the crew/DrChakwas (Or any other weak member)
----- Bring Mordin/Tali with you for the final fight (Or any other weak member)

Doing this will make your team strong with an average of 2,55 = Everyone survives

  • Grunt/Zaeed/Garrus ================= ( 4 x 3 )
  • Thane/Legion/Samara/Jacob/Miranda === ( 5 x 2 ) / 9 (number of crew holding)
  • Kasumi (Or any other weak member) ==== ( 1 )


Paramour II
Establish or rekindle a romantic relationship in two games in Mass Effect Legendary Edition


----- Possible romance for Male Shepard
  • Tali
  • Miranda
  • Jack (Romance is cancelled if you accept to bang)

----- Possible romance for Female Shepard
  • Garrus
  • Thane
  • Jacob

----- Romancing Liara - Samara - Kelly will not count for the achievement

Insanity II
Complete two games in Mass Effect Legendary Edition on Insanity without changing difficulty

One of the hardest achievement to do, ME2 is the hardest game in the trilogy to do in insanity. I advice you to play as a
  • --- Sentinel - For the power "Tech Armor", which allow you to instantatly have full shield again

  • --- Infiltrator - For the power "Tactical Cloak" which allow you to move/retreat/have you shield back. Also, after getting Grunt loyalty, go to the laboratory, advanced trainning and take "Fortification", which allow you to instantatly have full shield again
Another important thing to know about ME2 is that enemy spawn by waves, sometime rushing is a good way to avoid a difficult room

Exemple here :
  • --- 00:00 - Normal way - Waves of Krogans, lasted for 6 minutes, out of ammo (10 Krogans spawned)
  • --- 01:05 - Rushing - Use AI as bait, run to the end of the room, use your defensive power when shield are down (fortification used in the video) then kill the last enemies (Only 2 Krogans spawned)
  • --- 02:02 - Normal way - Waves of Vorchas/Krogans, lasted for 5 minutes
  • --- 02:52 - Rushing - No Krogan or other pyros spawned
  • --- 03:46 - Rushing objective - Enemy disappear when objective is completed

    https://youtu.be/q3KCK06JbXs

    Last thing, ME2 Insanity have a game breaking bug, ammos may not spawn/drop from enemies sometime in some level, reload a save/autosave, or restart the game (No other solution available)

    And don't forget that you can shoot from behind a wall

Start a new game as a Soldier or Vanguard Shepard ("action" is Soldier) and switch combat difficulty to narrative. After you reached the gunship radio with Anderson, equip the incendiary ammo power and shoot the enemy (you can kill then with melee to keep ammos). When you are out of ammo or when Joker arrive, load the quicksave and do it again

Sound hard but easy to achieve, 2012 Mass Effect 3 needed 4.000 points, ME3:LE have every DLC included which make this achievement easier to unlock, even if you made many wrong decision. Short guide on important desicion to maximase war assets :

Always Prepared

And don't forget that you can shoot from behind a wall

Thanks a lot for this guide! Do note that you can use your teammates' powers to accomplish the power related achievements in ME3.
Saphyaer 6 mar 2023, ore 8:30 
Great guide. You forgot to mention Big Game Hunter during the Grunt Loyalty mission. It is missable.
Gaseous Snake 16 gen 2023, ore 21:23 
Does NG+ work for the insanity trophy since it starts the game on the difficulty of the completed save which more than likely isn't insanity?
Wooler 10 gen 2023, ore 13:07 
Regarding power related achievements in ME3 - at least the one with overloading shields works using your teammates. I just got it playing vanguard class and having Garrus and EDI in my team.
VectorX 9 gen 2023, ore 10:33 
@Shinigami Miroku Side missions count too. I just unlocked one of those achievements while running around the Citadel at the very beginning of the game, doing side-quests there.
apartypooper 8 gen 2023, ore 23:16 
dOwOp, I just wrote about achievements in ProtonDB. It's about Linux, but I think the same applies to Windows too: install original Origin client and start the game from it. Achievements worked for ME1 but not for ME2/3. There may also be problems continuing the career from Steam ME1 to Origin ME2: I didn't get the bonuses (money, metals, bonus power, paragon/renegade points etc.).

Origin is downloadable at https://download.dm.origin.com/origin/live/OriginSetup.exe
dOwOp 2 gen 2023, ore 9:14 
help abut bug thats causes achivments not to load into steam even if did more then it shows on steam it makes me mad and sad
Shinigami Miroku 27 dic 2022, ore 19:55 
Just a quick question - when the achievements ask you to complete 5 missions with a particular squadmate (for ME1), is it just looking at the main missions, or the side missions as well?
Winwins 27 lug 2022, ore 23:29 
iam not unable to find that checklist for me 1 on nexus mods
