Subject: ME: Asari Ally Achievement

So, I've been grinding through all Mass Effect to get all the achievements. I just finished my insanity playthrough which was also supposed to get me the quarian and asari ally achievements. However, the only ally achievement that unlocked was the quarian one. I had even waited until I got Liara to activate any sidequests, then proceeded to do as many of them as possible. The hell, Flood?

What I did:
1. Got Liara
2. Went back to Citadel to get sidequests
3. complete sidequests
4. Noveria
5. Trip back to Citadel for sidequests
6. complete sidequests
7. Feros
8. another trip to the Citadel
9. went through every cluster to get system entry initiated sidequests
10. Virmire
11. Citadel
12. Ilos
13. Citadel

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

Getting Liara is the first thing you should do.

Try reloading your final save and beat the game again.

Also, try trueachievements or a similar site.

This. Also make damn sure to do every sidequest you can. Bonus points for Bring Down the Sky.

"If practice makes perfect" and 'nobody's perfect,' then what's the point of practice?"

Only do the main missions until you become a Specter. After you become a Specter you'll need to recruit Liara. Finally you can do all the missions as usual.

Make sure you don't do any quests on the Citadel besides for the main one. Then get her first things once you have command of the Normandy.

Also, Bring Down the Sky and Pinnacle Station don't add to the 75% of quests in the game. That means that you can do them in place of or in addition to other quests without having to do extra because those DLCs are installed.

Was I the only person who took the 10 seconds to read the entirety of the OP's post?

No. But he clearly did side things he didn't think about or else the achievement would have unlocked.

Thread maker I don't know what you want us to do, but your only option is to go back and make sure you don't do as much side stuff as you did. Hell, don't even get codex entries.
