Mass Effect Hints
How can I get what I need from the freighter?
1 of 8: When you enter the huge cargo hold, get your shotguns out and prepare to blast a lot of husks.
2 of 8: There are several groups of husks in the hold, so go around and finish them all off.
3 of 8: WARNING: Those husks will be *very* serious trouble on the higher combat difficulty settings, so be sure to use retreat tactics all the time with them to avoid being overwhelmed.
4 of 8: When that's done, make your way to the door on the east side of the hold.
5 of 8: Past that, open the next east door to find the cockpit.
6 of 8: Use the interactive navigation computer to find out what happened to the ship's crew.
7 of 8: Doing so will complete this assignment.
8 of 8: On your way out, search the two rooms near the cockpit for item containers.
