Mass Effect 2 Hints

Project Firewalker: Recover Prothean Relic.

  • 1 of 5: The Prothean barrier is now disabled, so drop down into the dig site's central depression.
  • 2 of 5: Exit the Hammerhead, then go up the small ramp near it to enter the excavated tunnel.
  • 3 of 5: Look for supplies on the way to the Prothean relic that you're after.
  • 4 of 5: Hack the computer console that's in the third supply area to open up the container that the relic is in.
  • 5 of 5: Read the datapad on the way to the relic if you want to, then move up to the relic to get the assignment-ending cut-scene.
