Mass Effect Legendary Edition leaves you with plenty of options as to how to handle a situation, thanks to numerous dialogue options. If you wish to persuade someone to do something in your favor, you can do that. If you wish to just kill everyone in cold blood instead, your option is there too. During the mission on Virmire though, your decisions can have dire consequences. As such, you may want help choosing your words carefully. No need to worry though as, in this guide, we’ll help you save Wrex on Virmire in Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

How to Save Wrex in Mass Effect Legendary Edition

In essence, Wrex is angry with the Salarians at the base due to them wanting to explode Saren’s base. That may sound rather silly, but considering it houses the genophage (the disease preventing his species’ reproduction), you can’t really blame him. Regardless, your goal is to calm him down, no matter how challenging it may seem to do with a brutish Krogan. This will become much easier though if you’ve done the Wrex: Family Armor side quest. This will open up the “I wouldn’t do this otherwise” dialogue option and cause him to stand down. If you haven’t though, you aren’t out of luck quite yet.

When it comes to the second dialogue wheel, you’ll have a few options with two being available with eight Charm or eight Intimidate skill. These are the “These aren’t your people!” Charm option or the “Don’t be so naive” Intimidate option. All of the other dialogue options will result in either Shepard killing Wrex personally, or Ashley executing him. If you can revert to a save before the mission, this may be your best choice if you’re stuck in the dialog option while reading.
