Lieutenant Cortez is down there, the first time you’re asked to go speak with him, he’ll bring James into the conversation a few times. Head down to the Shuttle Bay and go to the armory. You can get access to the ability fairly early on in the game. You learn Fortification from James, no surprise really as the guy is huge. To learn an ability you need to head to the medical lab and interact with the bed there. Note, most of these require reaching relationship milestones with each of your allies, as such, it’s hard to know exactly when you’ll learn each ability as it depends on how much you’ve spoken with them and how often you take them on missions.


This Mass Effect 3 Bonus Powers Guide will list all of the bonus abilities and powers we’ve discovered so far, as well as a basic description on how to obtain them. Some of these are direct abilities they use, others are meant to compliment their skills. But these "exclusive" pre-order bonuses will eventually find their way on the Origin store as a bundle deal for a reasonable price some time after the games release.Like previous games, Mass Effect 3 allows you to learn abilities from your squad mates.

While the items have a lot of appeal and really will give you an upper hand in finishing the game faster than the other players its a shame that the best pre-order goodies are only available with GameStop. You can pre-order the game from 2 sources EA's PC client "Origin" which will give you a "Raider Shotgun" and pre-ordering from GameStop will give you: "N7 Defender armor with amplified shields, an N7 Valkyrie Assault Rifle and the M55 Argus Assault Rifle" While EA has been putting pre-order bonuses with almost every game they release, Mass Effect might just have the best pre-order bonuses you can ask for which can give you an upper hand in fighting the reapers and any other threats that come your way. You can avail pre-order bonuses from Origin and GameStop but the better deal is with GameStop. But hey with EA who can argue about pre-order bonuses right?

Mass Effect 3 is one of the most highly anticipated EA Games titles coming out this year in March, while the game has had plenty of attention with trailers, screenshots and more details regarding the story and combat it is now time to address the pre-order bonuses of the game which will give players an advantage over those who don't pre-order and will eventually be available for sale to the public a few weeks after it's release.
