Mass Effect 2 Hints

Omega Tour

  • 1 of 8: Return to the club's main floor, then go through the door that's directly underneath Aria's ledge. Run along the corridor past that door to reach the Lower Afterlife area.
  • 2 of 8: Go up to the bar and talk to Forvan to get the "Omega: Batarian Bartender" optional assignment. After finishing it, you can dance with a patron or sit down and watch an asari dance, but neither gets you anything.
  • 3 of 8: Leave the Lower Afterlife through its southern door, then go along until you reach a vorcha named Shisk that you can optionally talk to.
  • 4 of 8: Go down Shisk's side passage to find Kenn's Salvage, where you can try to talk Kenn into giving you a discount before checking his store terminal for some expensive upgrades (plus some T6-FBA couplings that are needed for a Normandy assignment). You can also get the "Omega: Struggling Quarian" optional assignment from him.
  • 5 of 8: Finish it, then return to Harrot's shop and check his inventory. (Note the very useful Hack Module.)
  • 6 of 8: Go down the nearby stairs to find the Omega Market, where you can try to get a discount from Marsh before accessing the store's terminal. (Note the cheap magazine that you can get a codex entry from.)
  • 7 of 8: Talk to the "mad prophet" a bit west of Harrot's shop if you want to get some amusing rants.
  • 8 of 8: If you go west toward the Transport Depot, you can talk briefly to Gavorn, the guy that Shisk mentioned (if you talked to him).
