Mass Effect Hints
To the Hot Labs
1 of 4: You now have access to the hot labs elevator, and can go straight back down to the lower level and use it.
2 of 4: If you want do this now, talk to Yaroslev Tartakovsky in the main hot labs room to get the "Back to Rift Station" objective. However, taking this route route cuts you out of a mission and some XP later on, so it's really best not to take it quite yet. Read on to learn how to do things the longer, better way.
3 of 4: Go north past Captain Ventralis and on to the Medical Bay area, where you'll find a few people to talk to, including a merchant.
4 of 4: Next, do the "Noveria: Rift Station" mission until this mission transforms into "Noveria: Death of a Matriarch." You'll still be able to take care of the hot labs, just in a different form, while finishing "Death of a Matriarch."
