How do you keep the colonists alive in Mass Effect?

Once you run out of Anti-Thorian Gas grenades, you can still save the Zhu’s Hope colonists by using melee attacks to take them out. Use B on Xbox or Circle on PlayStation to hit them until their health bars are depleted. It’ll look pretty brutal, but it won’t kill them.

Can you keep Thorian alive?

You can choose to kill her, or allow her to help the colony to recover, which will affect the colony’s survival chances. If you want to get to know her, you can do so here, though if you let her live you can also do it after the mission.

How many colonists are on Feros?

The problem is that in order to get a true Paragon success in this mission the player must save all 16 colonists, which can prove tricky when they are all being controlled by a hostile plant being called the Thorian. This guide shows players how to save all sixteen colonists on Feros.

Do you have to destroy the Thorian?

You’ll need to shoot them all as you progress upwards to detach the Thorian from the walls. The Thorian won’t actually attack you itself since it’s just a stationary plant that’s been living underground on Feros for thousands of years. Instead, it’ll send Asari clones and many Thorian Creepers after you all at once.

Should I save Zhu’s Hope?

Choice: Save or Slaughter the Colonists of Zhu’s Hope If you gun them down with conventional weapons and abilities you’ll earn Renegade +2 per colonist slain, while if you equip the Anti-Thorian grenade mods and use your modded grenades to incapacitate the colonists you’ll earn Paragon +2 per colonist rescued.

Why is the Asari green?

In the months after her exposure to the Thorian, Shiala’s skin pigmentation changed to green — similar to her clones — and her biotic abilities became unstable.

Should I spare Shiala Mass Effect?

If you spare her, you’ll get lots of Paragon, and if you kill her you’ll get Renegade instead. If that’s your main motivation, the choice is obvious. The same goes if you’re roleplaying a certain type of Shepard.
