Once Matriarch Benezia is no longer protected by her shields, it is best to quickly hit her with Stasis, Neural Shock, or Damping, as her biotics are powerful enough to one-shot Shepard immediately. Keeping Immunity and Barrier up can also be beneficial.
Where is Benezia on Noveria?
Benezia will be in the lab. After a short talk you’ll need to fight her. She will be hidden behind a barrier, so there will be no point attacking her directly. Concentrate on the commandors sent by asari and defeat the first wave of enemies.
Can you avoid killing Benezia?
But then, she’ll turn on you for the last time, and you’ll need to lay the killing blow. Fortunately, Benezia is on her own for the final phase, so avoid her biotic attacks and lay your own at her to bring her down: it’s time for Benezia to die.
Should you free the Rachni Queen?
Overall, the best decision is to save the Rachni Queen. She offers more benefits to having saved her in Mass Effect 1 than killing her. When she appears again in Mass Effect 3, and you choose to save her from the nest, she becomes a superb asset.
How to remove Matriarch Benezia from the fight?
Stasis is a great option to remove her from the fight as she’s invulnerable while her power bar (visible in the lower right side of the HUD) is still active anyway.
Where to find Matriarch Benezia on peak 15?
You’ll learn from your first talk with Gianna Parasini that Matriarch Benezia is on Peak 15 on behalf of Saren. The first part of this sprawling mission entails getting a garage pass in order to leave Port Hanshan and reach her. See Noveria: Leave Port Hanshan and/or Noveria: Lorik Qui’in for details.
What did Matriarch Benezia do to Shepard and team?
Benezia places the whole squad in temporary stasis while her commandos move into position. The tactic fails, with Shepard and team breaking out and defeating the commandos, but the Matriarch sends in a couple more commandos and geth troops in an attempt to bring the Commander down.
Why did Noveria go offline at peak 15?
The main source of the outage at Peak 15 comes from the offline VI. When you get it back up and running, it will inform you of additional tasks to perform before you can move on: Noveria: Reconnect Landlines and Noveria: Reactor Repair.
