List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations

**NOTES:** By my count, that’s 61 total missions and 58 that you can do with one character in one single playthrough. This is because there is one quest for each background you can choose and one quest for either Paragon or Renegade. Some quest names may change depending on its completion progress or where the quest was initiated. I will try to point out as many as I can. Also, some Citadel quests will open up at different points in the game so if the quest-starter is not there, check back after a few side quests and after every main story mission. Also, be aware that some of the planetary quests may have quest-starters that may or may not be listed here. But that doesn’t matter. You can just go to the planet/ship, fulfill the objective (kill x, hack into a terminal or find x) and it will still complete the quest without any penalty for not finding the quest-giver first. But usually, you’ll get a radio transmission when you travel to the location, which kicks off the quest anyway. But some clusters/systems/planets are not unlocked from the beginning. So if that cluster/system/planet is not there yet, check back after doing some more quests. I put a lot of effort into this so I hope you guys find it useful. Also, if I missed any missions, please feel free to post additions. Enjoy!

Re: List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations
Are you sure this is the complete list?  I think there's more than 55.

*Edit: Nevermind didn't see the sub-quests without bullets.  Good list.

Oh really? Or are you just saying that? There possibly could be more because I didn't use a guide for this (except Old, Unhappy, Far-Off Things because neither of my characters were Spacers but I knew logically that there should've been one for that background too if there were one for the others). But I was VERY thorough on my first playthrough (41 odd hours) and couldn't find a single one more.

Again, if you have the strategy guide or found any other missions, please list them here because I am using this list myself to help me keep track for the ally achievements.

Re: List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations

Nice, tag

just a note: some side missions can be gained in different ways. Such as the one with Garoth's brother. You will either find out by talking to him, from hacking into a computer I think on Ferros, or via the elevator.

Just talk to him after every main story mission and eventually after 2 or 3 times, the quest will finish. Or you could be a jackass to him and the quest will end after talking to him once or twice.

Re: List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations

Nice list.  I've hit all of these through my 3 games except the "Spacer Background" mission, but I will with this new character.

I don't think you've missed any.

EXTRA SPOILER

You can solve the quest using charm or intimidate. But if you just do the neutral option all the way, he gets angry at you, only to be killed in a bar fight with a turian later on. You can hear this via elevator news update.

Re: List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations
damn I knew that I would find something like this after beating the game, but not this soon- I just beat the game an hour ago. thanks for the list though, it'll be handy for my second play through. I already got the completionist and turian ally achievement, so I'm going after the other ally achievements next. PinnedThreadPop [SP]

Re: List of Every Sidequest Including Quest-Starter Locations
On Noveria, I know the overall quest to get the garage pass is a main quest.  But dont the subquests to get the pass actually count as side quests?  Since there was three different ways you could get the garage pass maybe it would be helpful to mention those.

Other than that its an interesting guide.

*SPOILERS* 

There are 3 ways??? I only know of two. Help Gianna by getting Lorik to testify or help Lorik retrieve his data? What's the last way?

But regardless, as far as I know, they are still listed under the main story section of your journal and so they are considered main story quests. The only things I listed were those under the Assignments section.

You can also find out about the Dead Scientists by hacking into a computer on Noveria.
