Oh man that was too fucking easy... fight Benezia, she and her Asari commandos are much much more dangerous... this is the only fight in ME1 which I would consider calling "difficult". I call it tricky... that's where you get tested. It's not only how good you can use cover and how well you can aim... it's also about correct movement and constant change of tactics, because there are snipers, melee fighters and biotics... so you have to change your weapon quite often to maximize efficiency unless you play a biotic class. And the last thing is that you need to be damn quick! All of that doesn't appeal to the armature boss fight... one weapon, one tactic, no biotics, only one pattern of movement and a good choice of cover, that is all to beat this boss... So, that's my detailed opinion at least... but I understand why this fight might be difficult for some player types out there. What do you think about the Benezia bossight? Do you find that easier or harder? Well I think it depends on which planet you take first... Noveria was my first planet to go for, so I was horribly underleveled... just because of: RACHNI! They are hitting very hard and they are agile while chewing awesome amounts of damage. To me, Feros and Therum appeared to be very easy instead.
RavenWarrior90 : Yeah, I thought about it again and I said that because when I first played this game, that armature owned me and picking Liara up was the first major mission I went for, but now that I'm playing through again and about to do Noveria...Oy, now I remember the Benezia fight. Oh that fight. I think I had to do that like 30 times before I finally found the perfect opening salvo to get it done. All I can remember at this point was how elated I was when she finally went down...Hell I was just happy I was able to deal with all the damn adds properly. Good call on that. Definitely.
Yeah that fight was intense, but as I said I understand why the armature is dangerous, too. I'm playing again now and yesterday I got a oneshot from him xD happened by accident as I was concerned to kill those hopping little frog-like Geth first and then it hit me. Benezia however is the toughest bitch in the game with her damn asari commandos. :)
@@RavenWarrior90 Tbh I was playing on insanity as an infiltrator and Noveria was the last planet I visited before Virmire (I was already at max level thanks to side quests). Benezia was a pushover but the rachni warriors were an absolute nightmare. They just keep coming out of nowhere and they can one shot you so you'll be reloading over and over if you aren't careful.
To be honest, ME1 had lot of scenes where you're awe struck. First time you see sovereign at eden prime, the time when you touch the beacon, battle of citadel etc. Story was top notch and on top of all that these badass music tracks.
Just got the Legendary Edition and marathoned the game for hours right as I got it. Soon as I heard this theme play as my Shepard shouted "I've lost shields!", I knew Mass Effect was back :')
I was able to easily dodge Geth Armature attacks since I was always attacking from a distance... but got my ass handed to me by Geth Primes though. I remember dying countless times until I decided to use my max warp w/ nemesis specialization and shooting all my grenades and carnage/marksman it to death and I almost died still XD.
I beat it fairly easily even on Insanity, you just have to focus on the snipers, then the juggernauts and finally the armature itself, just stay in cover and you'll be fine
Honestly, "I've lost shields" is a good one but frankly whenever I hear me1 combat tracks I can only think of sprinting 2 seconds before fatiguing. That and "perimeter clear"
First time I heard this while fighting the geth on Therum, I was like: ...DUDE! This is wonderfully perfect futuristic Sci-Fi background music for a battle in an intergalactic war!
It was epic when i was fighting my way up the hill and this song came on. Unfortunately i later died 10-15 times at the part with the Geth ambush. So much for the heroic assault.
Gotta use your head in that mission, you can’t win with a frontal assault. The easy way is to break hard left as soon as the combat begins. There’s a pavilion structure there and the only way in and out is on your side of the battlefield. Then just let the Geth come to you and blast them one by one as they come around the corner.
This is A track on Therum. But it's not the theme for the battle with the Armature, which is the only theme in the game that actually screams *BOSS* at you. That's also the only damn track in the entire trilogy I can't find on the internet.
HappyYellowLemon Thanks for the tip, friendly lemon-person, but I already found it. You'd think they'd have the decency to separate them out into two tracks, but no, they combine it with the one I've heard the most in the game and thus one I'm very likely to skip past the second I hear the intro.
Enjoyed the song? Here's where to find it in your game ! Mass Effect > BioGame > CookedPC > Packages > ISACT > music_knossos.isb (open with Psychonauts Explorer) > mus_area_knossos_v2_1_jack.ogg
Hey, just what I was looking for! I just thought about game music and found the soundtrack on Amazon music but this one was missing, I was so confused why I couldn’t find it haha. I love this battle music. Thanks for putting it up (ages ago haha)
The Krogan battlemaster was crazy even on Normal. Gets close > knocked down, dead. Or worse, sometimes he'd overload and neutralize your shields, then oneshot you from a few feet away :/ Oh, and don't forget about the OneShot snipers from Noveria. That was overkill! o.O
0:12 I don't know how but I SWEAR that this theme started at the Geth battle in Noveria's garage (before getting the Mako) for me, I'm not lying but couldn't get it to happen on another playthrough
ENEMIES EVERYWHERE -shouted countless numbers of enemies charging into Shepard and his two companions completely annihilating them seemingly invulnerable to any damage. EXTREME DIFFICULTY IS SO FRUSTRATING
HOLY SHIT!! thank you so fucking much for putting this up here. im covering mass effect songs and have been looking everywhere for this song. shep would be pround of you
This is when you go save Liara on Therum, plays during the path to the Geth boss prior to the cave. I think it also plays inside the cave during the last Krogan boss.
I remember this played right after when you had to get off the Mako and start walking. The difficulty suddenly increased and this music started rocking :D I think that's what makes this music is very memorable.
I was just thinking about this song, but could not remember where it was from. Glad it's so popular, cuz it was 4th in the list after searching mass effect ost.
@KroniKKidZ28 i agree so much. i missed driving around in the Mako on strange new worlds as well. In ME2 too many of the environments didn't allow for free exploration, they were all designed on the strict path you were supposed to follow. And whenever that one tune would play when you're in some underground base on some uninhabited planet, i can't remember the name of it but it was very quiet and spooky, whenever that played i felt the loneliness and coldness of space exploration.
Was my fav track - damn glad someone posted this. My Commander Shepard never looked so hot, racing up the hill to the armature with his sniper rifle to this music! ;)
HOLY SHIT!! thank you so fucking much for putting this up here. im covering mass effect songs and have been looking everywhere for this song. shep would be proud of you
yeah, pressing a single button to renew them instantly is so much more difficult than finding a proper cover and waiting a bit. I remember that one time I lost my shields in ME1. I was in some SERIOUS SHIT and started panicking because I didn`t know what to do. I hesitated between RENEWING MY SHIELDS, RENEWING MY SHIELDS and RENEWING MY SHIELDS. In the end I RENEWED MY SHIELDS. I`m glad I made the right call.
Awesome track, too bad it wasn't included in the soundtrac, grrr. Seriously, though, thanks for uploading this.

I agree with you entirely, that goddamn bloody Krogan that seemed to have unlimited amounts of health for which to continuously charge you with. I was expecting a lil' break after surviving the bloody Geth armature. The fact that the final fight was straight after some dialog and a wait in a lift followed by some more dialog before you got your arse kicked was even more insult to injury!

Why are all the best tracks missing?
+APC227 The best tracks are the best because hearing the new tracks always makes it sound better. That or they literally took all the good tracks out.
+Uber Waffle No, the missing tracks are actually better (imo).
Huh.
So what's the music like in the Actual Soundtrack?
How does it sound?
I legitimately could listen to this forever. On an endless loop and never tire of it.
I literally sat there for an hour listening to it in my first playthrough of the game years back. So good.
I completely agree !
The music in ME1 is absolutely outstanding.
Oooh man, to hear this again in the Legendary Edition….
We’re coming to get you Liara! Hang tight!
Oh...my god. I remember playing through Mass Effect back in 07 and this song came on and it blew my mind. ME 1's OST was outstanding.
You can honestly see half of mass effects music existing in the cannon, especially ME1s, this ones bloody great.
I love ME1's soundtrack more than others. Its like a new universe new excitements. We are all the beginng of everything.
Geth Armature became a bitch of mine during this soundtrack
Mr MaestRo Same, but I got worked over a couple of times before I got it right. That's for damn sure.
12 more years passed, but I'm still here
Never left really
What a brilliant soundtrack.
