Mass Effect 2 Hints
Blood Pack Base.
1 of 11: Move down the foggy path until you reach the first beacon. Check the datapad that's on a crate, then activate the beacon by using its control panel. (Note that datapads are optional reading, so I won't mention the others. But do remember to look for thermal clips near them.)
2 of 11: Go a short way down the path to find the next beacon to activate, then start watching for klixen as you move on from there. Klixen spit fire up close and explode when killed, so try to keep your distance while fighting them.
3 of 11: Just past the third beacon, look down the short side path on the left for some raw platinum, then go the other way and shoot down the klixen that attack. (If you see a huge flying dragon-like creature, don't bother shooting at it. All it does is drop off klixen, and it's invincible.)
4 of 11: The path past the third beacon is large and looping. Go all around it to find klixen to kill and some raw platinum to loot before moving on past it. (If you ever get lost, you can use the beams that the activated beacons shoot forth to help you find your way to the next beacon.)
5 of 11: Soon after you get past the worst of the fog, you'll come to the fourth beacon's area. Activate it, then move on to another foggy path-split area.
6 of 11: Go along the left path branch first to find some raw platinum, then go the other way to find the fifth beacon and several klixen to fight.
7 of 11: Activate the beacon, then move on to the next foggy path split. Go right for raw platinum and a thermal clip, then go left to get to the sixth beacon.
8 of 11: Move into the fog past it and fight some klixen at a path split, then go right to immediately find the seventh beacon. Turn right from it and go up the side path to find a couple of vorcha guarding a box of platinum and a thermal clip.
9 of 11: Return to the seventh beacon and move on until you find an up-sloping path that leads to the eighth beacon. Activate it, then move on until you get near the Blood Pack base.
10 of 11: Approach it cautiously, since it has several defenders, including a powerful krogan named Salamul. You'll want to lure him off if you can, then move in on the rest of the mercs.
11 of 11: After they're all down, bypass the communications terminal in their area to shut it down and finish the assignment.
