Mass Effect 2 Hints
Retrieve Artifact.
1 of 7: Go down the ramp from the shuttle's landing platform to get several Blue Suns troops to come out through the door in the back of the area. Take cover behind the nearby tall rocks and shoot them all down, then search the outdoor area to find two boxes of refined element zero.
2 of 7: Go through the door and run forward for cover against some crates. You've been locked inside, and there are several Blue Suns guys in the large room ahead. After you kill the first bunch, move into the room to find some more on an upper walkway over to the right.
3 of 7: Take them down, then look for supplies before going through the upper walkway's big doorway.
4 of 7: Past the next door is another Blue Suns combat area. Hang back and peek around the left corner to take down the first enemy troops, then move into the room and go up the nearest ramp to get a view of the room's other side.
5 of 7: Shoot down the Blue Suns troops near the locked door in the back right corner, including Lieutenant Locke, before going over there.
6 of 7: Look for a box of refined element zero on one crate, and a PDA on another crate that'll give you the "N7: MSV Strontium Mule" assignment when you read it.
7 of 7: Go through the door and scan the prothean video log to finish this assignment.
