Mass Effect 2 Hints
YMIR Mech Combat Tips
1 of 7: Go down to the bottom of the stairs, then run over to the huge door that's over on the right.
2 of 7: The game will mark the spots next to the huge door where it wants you to send your two companions. Use the keys for ordering henchmen around to place one to the left of the door and one to the right. (Note that it helps to run up next to a marked spot so you can more easily aim at it.)
3 of 7: Once you get it right, the game will prompt you to take cover behind the small cement barricade that's a bit back from the door. Do so after getting out the assault rifle.
4 of 7: After a cut-scene, you'll find yourself under cover next to a crate stack in the area past the door.
5 of 7: Peek around and use Miranda's Overload power on the YMIR mech, then shoot it with the assault rifle.
6 of 7: Leave cover mode so you can maneuver around the crates to avoid the mech's fire as it comes after you.
7 of 7: You might want to switch to the shotgun to finish it off with, or just dodge around the crates until your companions destroy it for you.
