Players can now end the assignment with a Charm to convince Conrad to go home or an Intimidate to scare him away.ĭespite players being able to choose between Charm and Intimidate, Mass Effect 2 will always erroneously mark only the Intimidate option. This time, Conrad suggests that he should become the next human Spectre and asks Shepard to help him. Players will now need to clear another one of the story missions and go back to the Wards. To continue the mission players should oblige refusing his request will cause Conrad to permanently exit the trilogy (it will be later revealed he perished picking a fight with a group of Turians). His connotation will slightly change depending on if Shepard is male or female. Players can agree or decline at this point, causing Conrad to leave either ecstatic or upset.Īfter completing a major story mission on Noveria, Feros, or Therum, return to the Wards to encounter Conrad a second time. Conrad will first be encountered in the Upper Market of the Citadel Wards (note that if all planets were already cleared, the scene will not happen). Conrad will often break the fourth wall, making remarks about the series’ mechanics and Shepard’s mannerisms. Conrad Verner is Shepard’s self-proclaimed biggest fan, but will mostly cause problems for the Spectre.
