All Terrormorph Decision Choices and Consequences
Use Microbe or Aceles Against Terrormorphs
| Choice | Consequences |
|---|---|
| Deploying the Aceles is the safest route. | Morally good companions will dislike this choice. |
| They need to be wiped out quickly with the microbe. | Morally good companions will like this choice. |
| Shouldn't securing the Lazarus Plant be sufficient? | Abello explains their responsibility to do something about the Terrormorphs. You will be returned to the prompt. |
| I still had questions about the methods. | Abello will explain the difference between Microbes and Aceles, and returns you to the prompt. |
At the end of the quest: A Legacy Forged, while speaking with the Cabinet, you will be asked by Abello whether you should release Aceles or use the Microbe to get rid of Terrormorphs.
A Legacy Forged Walkthrough and Choices
Should You Choose Microbe or Aceles?
Both Choices Grant the Same Rewards and Don't Affect the Quest
Regardless of the choice you make, you will still receive the same EXP and credits as rewards, as well as a Mercury Tower Penthouse in New Atlantis.
Your decision will not affect the story either, and the only real consequence is your companion affinity depending on who your current companion is.
Aceles is the Morally Bad Choice
Choosing to use Aceles against the Terrormorphs is the morally bad choice as the process takes longer and you get a dislike from a companion who is also morally good like Sarah Morgan.
Microbe is the Morally Good Choice
Alternatively, choosing to use the Microbe against the Terrormorphs is the morally good choice as they are the faster solution and you can get a like from a companion who is morally good.

Anonymous 18 daysThis is the DUMBEST thing I've ever seen in ANY game. The aceles was a booming industry as a food source and it also takes care of the terrormorphs. There's multiple good symbiotic relationships that come of raising the aceles. But apparently everyone at Constellation hates that idea and I should "trust the science" of an untested microbe that has a non zero chance of mutating and causing havoc on the planets it is deployed on. B!tch you don't even know the science of a natural predator?
