Mass Effect 2 Hints
Stop the Collectors
1 of 7: NOTE: The only objective this mission has in this part of the game is "Assemble a Team," so these hints won't have an objective list.
2 of 7: The first thing you should do is go to Illium and look around it for stuff to buy and optional assignments to do.
3 of 7: Then look for lots of new optional assignments in other areas. (See the Later Assignments section.)
4 of 7: As for the missions, things get a little bit confusing and overlapping at this point. You start out with three new dossier missions to do, plus loyalty missions for Miranda and Jacob.
5 of 7: As you complete missions and optional assignments, more loyalty missions will come up.
6 of 7: After you finish several missions and/or assignments, you'll need to talk to the Illusive man again in the briefing/comm room.
7 of 7: When you do, you'll move on to Part 6: Damaged Collector Ship. All unfinished dossier and loyalty missions (and optional assignments) can be completed in Part 7 without any penalties for waiting.
