Mass Effect 2 Hints

Find Jack.

  • 1 of 7: Use the nearby unlocked door to get down to where Jack wrecked the YMIRs, then scan one of them to get a damage protection upgrade.
  • 2 of 7: Go through the big wall hole near the scannable mech, then look for power cells and a lootable dead guard as you move on to the next big wall hole.
  • 3 of 7: After you go through it, move forward slowly. There are several human prisoners fighting the Blue Suns and their YMIR mech in this bay, so let them do some damage before you go up to the railed walkway that overlooks their floor and finish off the survivors.
  • 4 of 7: Cross the walkway and turn left, then look around for supplies.
  • 5 of 7: Next up is a long combat in another large bay.
  • 6 of 7: Go to the back end of the bay and loot a dead prison guard, then go through the doorway near him. Check the dark corridor for a medical station, some power cells, and a hackable wall safe, then open the next door to start a combat with Warden Kuril.
  • 7 of 7: As soon as Kuril goes down, you'll meet up with Jack in a cut-scene and finish the mission.
