Mass Effect 2 Hints

Get to Tali.

  • 1 of 7: Look around the room to find a weapons locker, an ancient wall safe, two damaged geth to salvage, a journal of Tali's, and a disassembled geth rifle (scan for an assault rifle damage upgrade).
  • 2 of 7: Go through the door that Tali unlocked for you and raid the medical station, then head down the passage to find a large opening leading outside to another geth combat.
  • 3 of 7: Go through the door at the back of the ruins area to find a room with a locked safe and a security console.
  • 4 of 7: After you use the console, you'll get caught up in a colossal battle with a geth colossus and all of its geth pals.
  • 5 of 7: After the colossus and any remaining geth are destroyed, look all over the combat field for supplies.
  • 6 of 7: Go through the door in the back of the colossus' area to find Tali.
  • 7 of 7: Salvage the damaged geth that's just past the door, then talk to Tali to get the mission-ending cut-scenes.
