In Leviathan DLC, on Despoina how do you get past the Brute attack and still pick up power cells from Cortez? I tried running all over the place to get to Cortez, but died as many times.

I am in my final push to get to Leviathan, just unable to get to Cortez.

I tried killing all the enemies from cover, but the waves never end.

Normally in these situations, there is a gun available that can help with the fight. But I have not found such gun, and the enemies are kicking me where it hurts.

So how to achieve my goal to get to the Leviathan?

The key is to not focus on the enemies. The goal is to power the ship, not kill the enemies. As you've seen, the enemies never stop coming.

I got past this part by sprinting to the next power port whenever I got a new power cell from Cortez. If any enemies were in my way, I'd shoot them but other than that I would ignore any enemies since they take a long time to take down (especially the Brutes).

For me, it took 3 power cells to fully power the doors. I believe that the various ports can be reused, if needed.
