Should I save the Angara or destory the Kett facility?

You don't have the time to do both,you either spend time opening Exaltation pods and freeing prisoners or setting detonation charges,the Kett are mobilising for a counter attack.

Saved Angara.

Whole point is to save Angara from the Kett. Kett can always rebuild that facility, but you can bring back those Angara in other hand.
But oh boy did that shot the shit out of that Cardinal though. Fuck that bitch, you ain't living and exalting more people.

First play, I destroyed it. No idea the effect of the brain washing if that was the case on the prisoners. Moshae seems to be the defacto leader and was her request.

Felt good as hell to shoot her!

Saved Angara.

You aren't just killing prisoners but the resistance fighters who came with you.

It was a good old traditional Renegade choice and reaction. I loved it.

Blowed it up because the angara were incapable of even getting inside the shield without SAM's help, so they aren't destroying it on their own anytime soon. Much better to  hit the kett where it hurts, destroying their main foothold (and recruit production center) on our cluster.

I still got resistance help in the ending, maybe it was linked to Jaal's loyalty mission.

Well, I decided to destroy it because of reasons.

I was doubtful if the Angara really had the capability to come back and destroy the base later if I saved their people. It was more likely the Kett would just resume business as usual and use the facility to "exalt" even more. And as mentioned two posts above me, we only got in because of SAM. Unless they use aerial bomardment, I couldn't see it happening and I don't think the risk was worth it.

What was it Garrus says in the trilogy? "Sacrifice a thousand here, so a million over there can live" or something like that, was the way I saw it.

Just like the Reapers!  Yes, I feel bad for the captured angarans but I feel like that leaving that facility intact means more angarans are going to be transformed into kett.  In both cases, we lose angarans, but in one instance the angarans turn into our enemies as kett.

I saved the Angara.

Part of it was that Jaal asked me to and I respected his opinion, especially on Angaran matters. The Moshae is too in shock for me to take her request as being clear headed at that point. Jaal is the voice of the Angara I'm most acquainted with and I know he'd seemed like a good, but reasonable person up until that point. Plus, we were friends and I could tell this meant a lot to him. If my friend is pleading with me not to blow up his people, then I'm not going to do that, basically.

The other part is, I plan to take out the Kett entirely, so I feel like it doesn't matter if this building stands in the long term. I have more allies to fight with me for the end goal, which is making sure there's not a single Kett left in Andromeda to run this place. We'll keep fighting until we can take down every one of their bases, but for the moment I was happy to save those lives. I think it isn't as easy as some are thinking for them to gather that many Angara again. This was work they'd done over a long period and while they had the upper hand. The tide of the war is already turning. As we push them back, they'd have less and less opportunity to capture more Angara and we'd have boosted our own numbers for the fight. Seems like a win, for me.

I hesitated for a few seconds but then I went for saving the Angara simply because this is what Jaal really wanted and I knew I wanted my Ryder to romance him... wasn't going to upset the future boyfriend, especially after making so much progress.

I don't know if going against his wishes could ruined my chances of romancing him but I just didn't want to risk it.
