Mass Effect 2 Hints
Escape to the Shuttle.
1 of 6: As soon as you turn the transmitter off, run down a "dirt ramp" to the lower ground, then start running back to your shuttle, staying left as you go.
2 of 6: On the way, you'll start encountering hostile LOKI mechs.
3 of 6: Proceed toward the shuttle slowly, taking down all the mechs at range as you go. Use your Unity power to heal your squad if they ever both go down, and look for the mechs' dropped thermal clips to replenish your ammo supply.
4 of 6: When you get fairly close to the shuttle, you'll see that there's a huge YMIR mech near it. Take cover behind the large crate on the right of the path as you shoot it down. (This is assuming you stayed to the left as you moved toward the shuttle. There is another path that goes around the area's large central rock mass.)
5 of 6: After the YMIR goes down, make your way slowly down the path to the shuttle, using crates and large rock chunks as cover while shooting down more LOKI mechs. (Don't neglect to pick up thermal clips as you come across them to replenish your ammo.)
6 of 6: When you get near the shuttle, more mechs will appear and attack, but you'll probably want to ignore them and run up to the side of the shuttle so you can board it and return to the Normandy.
