    @ThaTrooperz Turns out the version of ME3 on EA App is not the deluxe edition and does not include the MP DLCs hence why my inventory was missing. After manually installing them through Origin things are back to normal. Note that the game can only launch from Origin and not from EA App.

Under your Mass Effect 3 install folder, it will be in:

\BIOGame\DLC

Each DLC has its own sub-folder starting with "DLC_"

The default location for your game installs is C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\

In case you changed, and need a reminder, you can check the properties on the game's startup icon.  Or from inside origin, from the menu at upper left of screen, check:

[menu] Origin>Application Settings>Installs & Saves
