Walkthrough for the MSV Strontium Mule mission in Mass Effect 2, including enemy locations, item pickups, and how to complete objectives in the Omega Nebula.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As you enter the MSV Strontium Mule, a group of Blue Suns will attack from the door. Defeat them and proceed up the ramps.
  2. 2
    On the middle level of the ramp, three Blue Suns will attack from above. Use the angles to your advantage as there is no cover.
  3. 3
    Bypass the Hub Security Console to proceed through the doors.
  4. 4
    The first objective is upstairs. Take out the two Blue Suns on the upper level.
  5. 5
    Head south, then west to the Bridge Security Console and bypass it.
  6. 6
    Upon entering the bridge, you will face several Blue Suns and four FENRIS Mechs that approach from behind. You can sometimes aim at allies behind walls to take out Blue Suns before they trigger the mechs.
  7. 7
    Read the Ship's Main Log to update your objective.
  8. 8
    Blue Suns, including Sergeant Boortis, will appear from the north.
  9. 9
    Head to the north end of the ship. In the east room, defeat any Blue Suns and their victims, being mindful of the lack of cover.
  10. 10
    In the west room, hack the Research Docket to obtain the Heavy Skin Weave upgrade. This room also contains the payload, which will end the mission.
