Analysis
	The ancestral home of the angara is a lush jungle planet. However, scans detect plant life on Havarl exhibiting maladaptive, unsustainable growth patterns. The abnormal mutation suggests something is terribly wrong with Havarl's ecology.

Havarl, also known as Habitat 3, is a planet in the Faroang star system.

The following missions take place or are acquired on Havarl:

Priority Ops

Allies and Relationships

Heleus Assignments

Additional Tasks

Research Opportunities[]

Research Data (RD) opportunities on Havarl are found on specific mission and location pages. Some items are cleverly hidden and not associated with missions or high traffic areas. These are known as orphan RD items. For a complete list of all orphan research data items, see Research Data Orphans.

As Jaal explains, Havarl is considered the ancestral home of the angara. The ruins of angaran cities are a draw for researchers, looters, and angara who defy the kett to make pilgrimage. The planet's history also makes it a symbolic staging ground for the ruthlessly xenophobic Roekaar.

Long-range surveys by the Andromeda Initiative indicated Havarl was a garden world of lush green jungles and abundant liquid water. The planet was considered a "golden world," and given the label Habitat 3.

Our observations today show Havarl is unrecognizable. The jungles now dominate much of the planet's surface, demonstrating bizarre growth patterns. Samples show grotesque mutations and hormonal changes in the jungles' plant life, rendering it not only extremely hardy but hazardous for consumption. These factors point to a large-scale shift in Havarl's ecology that bears investigation.

With the Remnant vault stabilized and correctly activated, both angaran and Nexus scientists report a noticeable improvement in Havarl's plant life. The more aggressive and mutated species are dying back, supplanted by soil-enriching and pollinating varieties.

In a comparatively brief time, Havarl shows signs of being a welcoming garden world. Meanwhile, Initiative scientists have joined forces with angaran personnel to investigate Havarl further.

Notes[]

¹ Helping Havarl's Scientists is a Priority Ops mission if Ryder partially completes the Meet the Resistance mission arc — Meet the Resistance → On the Frontlines → Stage a Rescue.
² Helping Havarl's Scientists changes from a Priority Ops mission to a Heleus Assignments mission if Ryder first completes the Meet the Resistance mission arc — Meet the Resistance → On the Frontlines → Stage a Rescue.
