Hotel Azure

Planet Illium
DLC Required Lair of the Shadow Broker
For the second part of the Lair of the Shadow Broker, Liara joins your party. She's a powerful biotic with the unique Stasis ability. Her biotics also work despite the Enemy having shields, which is quite nice.

The opening sequence of this Area involves reinforcements coming from every angle. Watch for the cars and get into appropriate cover.

You can find a few items in the two hotel rooms you'll see. The Weapons locker in the second is your first chance to re-arm Liara, if you want to.

After the second room, you'll fight Tela Vasir. As a Spectre and powerful biotic, she's no easy meat. She loves to use Shockwave, which basically ignores cover, so keep moving when you hear it. Every now and then she will leave and summon reinforcements, then come back when they are defeated. If you die, you can resume from the specific phase of the battle you were on.
