Mass Effect 2 Hints
Find Lost Crew.
1 of 15: Keep moving forward from the monument site to find another dog tag glowing.
2 of 15: Go back to the shuttle, then over to the nearby small debris piece that says "NORMANDY." Look to the left of it to see another dog tag glowing near more wreckage.
3 of 15: Turn left from it and shoot apart the large fragile crate to find another dog tag, then look nearby for a small crate of refined element zero next to some long, bent metal beams that are sticking way up out of the ground.
4 of 15: Look to the left of the tips of the longest metal beams for some rocky lower ground that you can find another dog tag on. Just beyond that is a section of wreckage you can enter for a flashback and another dog tag.
5 of 15: Exit the wreckage, then turn left and run all the way down to another piece of wreckage with a flashback and dog tag in it. As you leave that wreckage, look next to the debris on the left for another dog tag.
6 of 15: Return to the previous bit of enterable wreckage, then go straight forward from its exit to find a dog tag at the end of a wide icy path. Turn around and go along the icy rock wall on your left until you find another dog tag lying in the grass near the wall.
7 of 15: Follow the wall just a bit farther to find a box of refined element zero, then go up a small nearby "ramp" to get onto slightly higher ground. Look to the right and left to find two nearby dog tags. (The right one is next to a wrecked M35 Mako vehicle.)
8 of 15: On past the left dog tag is the wrecked galaxy map area of the ship. Look around it for a dog tag and a datapad to read.
9 of 15: Go along the narrow raised pathway just past the galaxy map to find your old N7 helmet, then go back down to the wrecked Mako vehicle. Go straight from the back of it to find a large SOS beacon, then look for a dog tag near the back of the beacon.
10 of 15: Look around in the area past the SOS beacon for a refined element zero box and a fragile crate you can shoot apart to get a dog tag.
11 of 15: Follow the path that heads back toward your shuttle, looking for a dog tag next to some large rocks to the right of the shuttle.
12 of 15: From there, turn around and run forward to find another dog tag near some rocks. Turn right from there to find a large enterable section of wreckage with a dog tag, then go back the way you came and toward the wrecked Mako.
13 of 15: Before you reach the Mako, get up to where you can shoot apart another fragile crate. Get its dog tag, then look next to some nearby wreckage for a refined element zero box.
14 of 15: Go over to the wrecked Mako to get a flashback, then turn left and navigate your way up to another fragile crate that you can shoot apart for the final dog tag.
15 of 15: After you get it, the assignment is complete, and you can return to your shuttle and take off.
