Guide to Mass Effect 2's Project Firewalker: Prothean Site mission. Learn how to disable power sources, find items, and complete the mission.

Alright, let's tackle the Prothean Site mission, part of the Project Firewalker DLC. This one's a bit different since there are no squadmates involved and no real combat threats, just you and the Hammerhead vehicle. It appears on your map as 'Firewalker: Prothean Ruin'.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, set your course for Hades Nexus in the Hoplos system. As soon as you land, you'll spot a Rocket Drone nearby, so take care of that right away.
  2. 2
    Your main objective here is to disable the shield's four power sources. Keep an eye out, as more Rocket Drones will appear as you move between these sources, sometimes popping up right on top of you. While you're exploring, you'll also find three Element Zero deposits if you're looking to mine them.
  3. 3
    The first power source is just to your right. There's one drone on the way, so deal with it. Get close enough to the power source to target it and fire away.
  4. 4
    After destroying the first source, double back to the left, taking out any Rocket Drones you encounter on your path upwards to the next power sources.
  5. 5
    Simply follow the path and make a jump to reach the second power source.
  6. 6
    Continue forward from there and make another jump to land on the next cliff. Follow the edge, keeping your weapons trained on the drones until you reach the third power source. Destroy it.
  7. 7
    Once the third source is down, fall back to the ground level. Cross the area and jump up near the cord to find the final power source.
  8. 8
    After destroying all four sources, go to the center of the area and exit the Hammerhead.
  9. 9
    Travel through the final area. You'll find some journal entries to listen to, and importantly, make sure to grab the Biotic Damage upgrade.
  10. 10
    Finally, hack the Computer Console to gain access to the Relic, then approach it to complete the mission. That's all there is to this DLC package and the Hammerhead vehicle!
