There are many side quests included in Mass Effect Andromeda. One of them is Ryder Family Secrets side quest that needs memory trigger to finish. For players, all they have to do is to get all the triggers that are scattered on the different planets in the game.
Get All The Memory Triggers In Mass Effect Andromeda
The first memory trigger will be given once the players become a Pathfinder. To get the rest of the memory triggers, players must first establish Eos as only then will the other memory triggers become available. These can be found on other major planets on varying locations.
Much like in the Eos, Voeld memory triggers should be easy to locate as those are shown in the map and players can easily collect them. In Elaaden, the first trigger is located at the northern part of the planet. They can use a Nomad to boost them or manually collect the trigger at the large rock arch.
After they have acquired the first trigger at Elaaden, they should travel towards the western part to get the second trigger. They need to enter the cave just below a tall column. They can get the item in a cavern but it has a Fiend, so they have to be careful.
Only one memory trigger is located at Kadara in Mass Effect Andromeda. According to Eurogamer, the trigger is on the southwest part of a Remnant tower. They need to use a Nomad in order to climb the grass slope and jump towards the rock to get the item.
The last three triggers are at Havarl. However, the first one can only be collected once the players have finished Havarl: A Dying World. The second one is at the Buried Cave located at the northern part of the planet. The last trigger is at the top floor of Mithrava.
Finish Ryder Family Secrets Side Quest
As per Twinfinite, every trigger can unlock a memory that Alec Ryder has passed on to his children. Players can watch it on Nexus. After they have completed the triggers, they can now fully understand Alec's plans for the team and their mission.
Moreover, after they have uncovered the Ryders' secrets, they will be receiving funds from a benefactor but his identity will not be revealed yet. The last memory trigger will instuct the players to wake up Ellen and change her name to Elizabeth Reily to protect her.
Even if they have discovered the secrets, players will still have to look for answers as they go deeper in Mass Effect Andromeda. The memory triggers only aid to help them what to do in order to find a new planet they can live in.
