From the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC for Mass Effect 2.

These are all the variations on how to handle the hostage situation, including the alternate dialogue depending on Spectre status and actions in Mass Effect 1.

How much paragon/renegade is required for these options? I have a Shepard created through the Genesis DLC, and have 100% paragon; yet I still can't get the paragon dialogue :/

[GhostlyMaiden]

@MarineMonkeys No idea. If you've got a save that takes place a few missions earlier, you may be able to increase your chances (depending on how paragon/renegade you had been during said missions). Also try slapping on the death mask or re-speccing Shepard for a 100% renegade/paragon boost instead of 70% if you haven't.

why does the shep in the last one say "i WAS a spectre too"? whats the difference in what you did to show when the shep IS or WAS?

[GhostlyMaiden]

@iamsoooosweet2468 Early in the game Anderson will send a message asking you to meet with the Council. There you can have your Spectre status reinstated unless you chose Udina for councillor and destroyed the Destiny Ascension. You can also choose not to have it reinstated when asked and I think if you skip this meeting altogether you won't have Spectre status.

@GhostlyMaiden is there ANY difference if you choose to be a spectre or not....beside the conversation change?

[GhostlyMaiden]

@ramjet94 You can use your status to get a discount at Citadel Souvenirs without charm or intimidate. In one of the sidequests where two asari are trying to get a shuttle off the Citadel, you can use your spectre status to convince the woman at the desk that they are not geth. Other than that, I think there's nothing more than minor dialogue changes throughout the game.

@Valkus +1

@lastxwriter Spectres aren't supposed to be good or evil. Vasir is actually a perfect example of what a Spectre is. They do things that they may not like, but they're saving lives and protecting the galaxy by doing so. Even if it means working for the shadow broker.

[lastxwriter]

What is it with Spectres and being evil? Saren was working for the Reapers and Vasir worked for the Shadow Broker. Shep must be the only non-evil one around.

Jennifer Hale is so good at being a badass. ^_^

Thanks for the video. If I can't do the blue paragon option, I've wounded the hostage. I never dropped my weapon.

@GhostlyMaiden You can also intimidate Elias Kelham into giving you information on Kolyat by putting a gun to his head.

[LiberalIntervention]

@ARavingLooony You git! Now I'll never be able to take this scene seriously again.

@MarineMonkeys A lot of the Paragon/Renegade options in ME2 are next to impossible without having played ME1 and got the Paragon bonus for that (which doesn't come with the Genesis DLC).
