The environmental controls highlighted by the HUD are in the room next to the cafeteria. There's a datapad (75 XP) in the floor just before you descend the steps. The lights are out, and you'll switch to flashlights so your vision will be reduced for a while. It's the maintenance entrance to a cafeteria, where a bunch of people died when someone vented the air from it. Up the next ladder and after jumping across a gap at the top is a suspiciously open airlock. Proceed and you'll receive a staticky transmission from James that gets more and more garbled until the storm's interference finally cuts him off completely. After descending the ladder you can use a View prompt to zoom in on a running battle between Cerberus and the remaining Alliance forces on the tramway. At the end of it, right before the ladder up is the Kassa Fabrication Chestplate. Head to the exposed Martian environment outside and down the ladder into a walkway. Now, use the security console to unlock one of the two doors. Continue in a bit to pick up the M-4 Shuriken, and then another med kit (100 XP).

Liara's Singularities can easily flush out any trooper that stubbornly remains in cover.Įnter the next room and examine the datapad on the last row of chairs (75 XP).

The cutscene will lead straight into a combat scenario, so be ready. Note: If James's Incendiary Ammo was active on any of your squad's weapons, it will remain active unless overridden by another ammo power or you access a weapon bench. You are again interrupted by Cerberus visitors much to James's chagrin, Shepard will send him back to the shuttle to safeguard the team's exit, and you will gain Liara as a squadmate for the rest of the mission. It's apparent that Cerberus is likely here for those plans, so it's imperative to beat them to the archives, which can only be reached via a tramway that Liara points out to you.

Make sure to position yourself and your squad in appropriate cover before engaging. You can take them by surprise, you have the higher ground, and they're all standing right next to each other. The first group will be oblivious to your presence, and if you take a closer look they're executing civilians. Up ahead you will hear some gunshots, then you'll see some Cerberus Assault Troopers ahead.
