Before you start the suicide mission there's a few things that needs to be done, First you need to make sure that you have completed all you crew members loyalty mission, preferably before you do the Reaper IFF mission, with the exception of legion for obvious reasons. Also make sure you use either the Paragon/Renegade options when settling the two conflicts between crewmates or use the Paragon/Renegade option when smoothing things over with the disloyal crewmate after the conflict.

Do note that 4 of the 12 loyalty missions can be failed, meaning you don't get their loyalty, the ones that are affected by this is Tali's, Samara's, Thane's and Zaeed's loyalty missions.
It's also worth noting that after completing Tali's/Legion's and Miranda's/Jack's Loyalty mission there will be a conflict between them, however they will only occur after you've completed both of them, so doing one and waiting for the other until you have enough of either morality is a valid strategy.

Make sure not to present the evidence against Tali's father.
Instead either

• Allow Tali to get exiled
  
• Rally the crowd if you didn't turn over Veetor to cerberus and saved Kal'Reegar's life when you recruited tali
  
• Pass either a Paragon or Renegade speech check

Get Morinth's interest and then don't bore her in the conversasion tree, first to get her interest do the following things when you're in the VIP area.

• Talk to Horftin and he will ask you to go help his friend. Go over to Florit on the far side of the bar and choose the terminal option, then the eternity option, in that order.
  
• Go up to the Krogan at the bar and insult him.
  
• Dance with the Asari on the dance floor.
  
• Either ask the bartender for a free drink or buy a round for everyone.
  
• Punch the turnian who's trying to buy the company of one of the dancers.

After you've done about 4 of them you will be approached by Morinth and she will invite you to take a seat with her at one of the tables. In order to pass the speech tree pick the following options

• Art > Elcor Forta > Vaeina
  
• Music > Expel 10 > Hallex
  
• Travel > I like Danger > Power is a reward

Afterwards she will invite you to her apparment and you can pick whatever options you want afterwards.
Bonus note for renegade players: if you decide to betray Samara, you will get Morinth as a party member, she will be fully loyal and has unique Dominate ability, it works similar to AI Hacking but for organic enemies instead of synthetic.

Don't lose track of the target, this isn't very hard since you have a generous time-window for everytime you need to update Thane on his position.

Either let the workers die so he can catch up to Vito or pass a dificult Paragon check at the end of the mission.

There are Three mandatory ship upgrades you need to take to make sure that your crewmates doesn't die before the actual mission itself, they are as follow

• Heavy Ship Armour - Talk to Jacob to get the schematics, if you don't purchase this upgrade Jack will die.
  
• Multicore Shielding - Talk to Tali to get the schematics, if you don't purchase this upgrade one of your following crewmates will die, in the following order: Kasumi > Legion > Tali > Thane > Garrus > Zaeed > Grunt
  
• Thanix Cannon - Talk to Garrus to get the schematics, if you don't purchase this upgrade one of your following crewmates will die, in the following order: Thane > Garrus > Zaeed > Grunt > Jack > Samara/Morinth

During the mission you will be prompted to select a crewmember for special roles during the mission, with the exeption of Miranda during the second fireteam choice (the second one) all specialist must be loyal for them to survive.

For the vent specialist you should pick either: Tali, Kazumi or Legion.

For the first second fireteam leader you should pick either: Garrus, Jacob or Miranda.

Failing to pick the correct option for either of these will result in the vent specialist dying.

Make sure to send the crew back with a loyal crewmate, it can be anyone of them but it's recommended that you pick a crewmate with a low hold the line score like Mordin, Kazumi or Tali. While Jack also has a low hold the line score she's more useful for the next section.

---

For the biotics expert you should choose: either Samara/Morinth or Jack.
if you fail to pick a correct one, one of your squadmates will die.

For the second second fireteam leader you should pick either: Garrus, Jacob or Miranda again, but what's diffrent this time is for whatever reason Miranda doesn't have to be loyal for her to survive unlike last time.

After all this, you will get promted to pick two crewmates with you to the final chamber and leave the rest behind to hold of the incomming collectors, every crewmate has what's known as a hold the line score that will detirme how good they are at holding the line and they are as follows.


To Ensure all the crewmates left behind survives the average of all crewmates you left behind must be 2 or above. To help with that it's best to pick both your crewmembers that you want to take with you from the 1/0 section.

After this you just need to finish the mission and enjoy your reward.
