Mass Effect 2 Hints
Reaper Combat Tips
1 of 6: You'll start out right next to some good cover, so run up to it and use it.
2 of 6: The reaper will attack you with huge cannon-like blasts that will kill you if they connect. You must stay under cover while fighting it.
3 of 6: It'll periodically duck down out of sight, but it'll always come back up in the same spot, so there's never any need to frantically run around for new cover.
4 of 6: In order to do the thing extra damage with each shot, lean out and target whichever cannon it's about to fire (mouth or chest). Just don't stay out of cover too long!
5 of 6: When the reaper's armor gets low, collectors will start swarming in, including Harbinger-possessed ones.
6 of 6: Try to get your squad after the collectors while you focus on finishing off the reaper. Once you do, it won't matter how many collectors are left.
