Hints: Have Dominate Ability and Keep Samara Alive:
Dominate is a very useful Biotic ability that allows you to control organic enemies and turn them into
allies, similar to the Hack ability that controls synthetics. In order to get this ability as a
Loyalty mission bonus to use for your character, you must help Morinth kill Samara during the latter's
loyalty mission. However, if you wish to keep Samara on your team but still have Morinth's Dominate
ability, use the following trick. Play Samara's loyalty mission up to the point where Samara
confronts Moritnth. Save the game immediately before the confrontation. When it is time to choose
who you will eliminate, choose the option that lets Morinth get the upper-hand on Samara and kill
her. Create a separate saved game file. Go to the ship and talk to Morinth. Load the previous saved
game then have Samara kill Morinth. You now get to keep Samara as a squad mate and have Morinth's
Dominate ability when you choose a bonus loyalty power to add to your character in the prototype
upgrade screen.
Hints: Bonus Paragon or Renegade Points:
Look carefully during conversations for a prompt at the top left area of the screen. Quickly hit L2
when the wings appears for extra Paragon points. Quickly hit R2 when the star appears for extra
Renegade points.
Hints: New Game+ Mode:
Successfully complete the suicide mission and watch the credits. Start a new game and select the 'Import
ME2 Character' option. Choose the saved game file with the completed Suicide mission. In New Game+
mode, your previously obtained level, class, skills, weapons training, and equipment will be
available. You will also start with 50,000 of each resource and 200,000 more credits. Note: Upgrades
do not carry over and your karma and squad loyalty will begin at neutral.
Hints: Legion: Dance:
Approach Legion in his quarters. Highlight him, but do not talk to him and he will eventually do the
'Robot' dance.
Hints: Rapid Fire M-920 Cain:
Fire the M-920 Cain and keep Fire held while hiting Reload after each shot. The shots will keep
firing during the previous shots' explosions.
Hints: Garrus: Elevators Reference:
Travel with Tali and Garrus, the recurring party members. Eventually they will have a conversation about
the elevators. Garrus will fondly remember the interesting conservations they had about Quarrians.
Tali gets very upset about to the point of threatening Garrus with her shotgun to stop.
Hints: Yeoman Kelly Chambers: Romance:
Talk with Yeoman Kelly Chambers often and select the kind responses. Invite her to dinner when you get
that option. Do not let Kelly die during the final mission and select a loyal escort for the crew
in the final scene. After completing the game, talk to Kelly. You will get an email from her. Go
to your quarters and invite her up using your console.
Hints: Faster Scanning for Mining:
Move the pointer to the left or the right of the planet you want to scan. Press the Left Analog-stick
and Right Analog-stick in the same direction to double the spin speed of the planet. This allows
you to locate resources on the grid line quickly.
