There are alterations towards some of the team choices, but if you want to be 100% on keeping everyone please follow this guide.

1.) Be prepared before you get Legion.  Have -ALL- Normandy upgrades. Armor upgrade, Thanix gun upgrade (mineral scanner, extra fuel and extra probes do not count so far as I know)

- Edi will anounce shortly after you acquire Legion that the Reaper drive has been installed.  (I had enough time to do Legion's loyalty mission before she announced the installation.) 

- Before you get the Reaper drive, make sure you've done -ALL- loyalty missions with your team.  You must be high level paragon / renegade to keep some people loyal.

- Miranda and Jack will have fight after Jack's loyality mission - must have high lvl paragon / renegade to keep them both.  Same with Legion and Tali after Legion's mission.

2.) After the Collector's kidnap your crew go straight to the Omega Relay and start the suicide mission.  Do not do any sidequests or travel - this will cause crew members to die for taking too much time.

3.)  Team assignments.  When choosing team assignments, make sure those members are loyal before assigning them to their specific jobs.  These leaders and chosen members must be the best choice for those particular tasks or they will fall behind / die.

-Garrus or Miranda for Team leader 1. 
-Legion or Tali for the Tech Specialist.
-Escorting crew members back - (I've only chose Mordin or Thane so far, and they've both survived.  You may have room to play around with this character.  As in, if you do not have a loyal member, this may be a free card to save them.  I have not tested that method yet, as both Mordin and Thane were loyal.) - The only way I can keep Mordin alive is by having him escort members back to the ship.
-Samara as Biotic escourt through the swarms.  (I've seen other's post using Jack and it being successful.  I assume Morinth is also adequate with biotics.  I have not tested Morinth yet.)
-Your team members to fight the last boss must be loyal to survive.


To survive the mission yourself, I'm not fully clear on the adequate steps to take.  I've had my femshep fully leveled on her job and had Normandy upgrades and survived. 

If anyone could post the absolute parameters to ensure your shepard lives, please post.

*EDIT* To keep your Shepard alive at the end, you must have atleast one member from your team used to defeat the human reaper survive.  This is important because that team member must be there to help pull Shepard on the shuttle; Joker isn't physically strong enough to do so.

Lastly if you found this thread helpful, please post to ensure other's may use this simple guide for help.

Thank you, and I hope this helps.

I don't think you have to go right away to the relay. However, I took my time and lost three people. If anyone has taken their time and had everyone live, please let me know.

For the crew you must go straight to the relay to keep them alive.  Your team members are a different story.

Choose to help her instead of Samara during Samara's loyalty quest.

I've yet to test this, but I believe you must be renegade to automatically take her side or possibly choose.  I was high lvl paragon and didn't get a decision.  I automatically chose to support Samara.

[shinobi602]

I can say 100% that Jack is very good for use as the biotic, and Garrus can also be used as the escort. At least, that's what I did.

Pick to kill Samara during her loyalty mission I believe.

Oh.  The actual crew.  Gotcha.  I don't care enough about them.  

Well except Scotty from the engine deck.  

[CptKyleBuddha]

I had legion as tech guy, Garrus leading the fire team and I had zaeed escort the crew back and then samara to do the biotics and then Samara and Mordin in the last battle did not loose any of them and garrus held them off while I destroyed the human reaper. No Crew or Team members dead.

[COdeNameSly]

Nice guide. I kept my team alive but lost almost my entire crew. Time for another playthrough!



Jacob works as team leader 1.

Garrus works as team leader 2.

Grunt works as escort.

[Naltair]

I used Garrus as the leader of both teams and I got everyone through just fine.

[TheJiveDJ]

Samara worked as team leader 1 for me.

[Lawliet89]

Zareed works for sending the people back.



This was my configration (all loyal):



- Tech: Tali

- Team Leader 1: Miranda



- Biotic: Samara

- Team Leader 2: Miranda



- Final Assault Squad: Jack and Miranda



I think there are probably a lot of other variables at work here to make an absolute guide though. Then this, will be one of the most interesting feature of ME2.

[Jasonco2]

I'd like to point out that it's a combination of things when you pick these people.



For example-

Tech: Garrus, Tali or Legion

Fire team: Zaeed

= Tech Person dying



But switch out Zaeed with Garrus and suddenly Tali has the skills needed to close the door.



Clearly a large number of variables go into who lives and who dies. I'm not even sure I want to think about it, haha. Especially if these variable reach as far back as the teammate Loyalty missions (and I suspect they do).



As in, did Mordin kill that guy or not? I've seen people mention that they just "find" his body in their play throughs. Perhaps if he kills the guy then his guilt over taking a life causes him to kill himself. Or maybe not. IDK. haha. Just brainstorming.

[Jedi_blues]

I had two people die. Zareed in the final battle, Thane while closing the doors, he was my tech guy for the tunnel. He made it through the tunnel but got sniped while he and Shep were closing the doors. He was loyal, so not sure why he died, but I am okay with it because he was dying anyway. At least he went out in a blaze of glory.



Zareed I was okay with too, he wasn't loyal to me because I chose to save people during his loyalty mission and we didn't get the guy. I was okay with him dying too, if someone had to.



Personally, I am glad a few people died. It made it more realistic for me, with a mission that crazy, to not come out completely clean.

[Barker673]

Jacob also works as Escort. And yes, it's essential to get to the relay as soon as your crew is taken to save them all - only the cook, Dr. Chakwas and Kelly will be shown, but it is in fact your whole crew who is saved (I have seen posts people unsure if everyone else had died because we didn't save dozens of people at once)



My Shepard survived and I only had a few upgrades, such as the bone and muscle upgrades but that's about it.

[Jigero]

I had Zaeed lead the second team and Legion was my tech and legion got sniped by a missile while closing the doors, Zaeed died while I had him take the second team round while I went threw the swarm with Samara and then Mordin died in the defense team while I was off killing the human reaper.

[Sir Doctor]

I'm not sure if you have to go as soon as your crew is taken, I probed a few planets so I could get the last few upgrades and still managed to save the crew and all of my team. Doing other missions instead is sure to get them killed though.

[Barker673]

Yeah, actual missions in between would likely get them killed but scanning planets probably doesn't, you're right Sir Doctor.

[SpideyKnight]

Garrus/Jacob/Miranda and in some cases Samara all work as Fire team leaders. The first three all have capable knowledge working as a team, and that's what gets everyone out alive. Samara worked as a team in the past but is a loner now, which is why she works as well. All of the other options are loners, or people not fit to lead firefights, hence why you have people dying. The vent is the same thing, if you don't choose Tali or Legion you are not optimizing and the game punishes you for being a poor leader. The escort mission is a freebie I think, I've sent everyone including Mordin and Tali and everyone is able to escort everyone to safety.

[catgirl789]

My way to everyone living through the final mission (paragon & engineer playthrough, Normandy fully upgraded, all loyal):

- Tech: Legion

- Team Leader 1: Garrus



- Biotic: Samara

- Team Leader 2: Jacob

-Escort: Zaeed

Final Assault Squad: Jack and Grunt, my heavy damage dream team.

I managed to complete a few very brief sidequests on Tuchanka (as in I had done everything except talk to the people who were supposed to give me my reward) and still save all my crew members, but does Lillith always die?

[Ulquiorra_Schiffer]

I had Legion during the Final fight against the Reaper Larvae and choose to save the Collector Base,He survived. So i'm not sure as to why he die's for others when you choose to keep the base.

[Bebbe777]

Had:



Team 1: Miranda

Tech: Legion



Team 2. Miranda

Biotic: Samara

Escort: Grunt



Final battle: Garrus & Mordin



Tali died during the holding battle. Dont know why. Heard that you should bring your tech during the final boss, Tali and Mordin to make sure they survive.

[atheelogos]

I sent Zaeed to escort the other team members back to the ship, I wanted to send them with someone who could handle his own. Everyone made it there okay.

[KapNBly]

I lost legion because I got anxious and didn’t pay for his upgrades so I lost him wtf oh well . Knowing is half the battle reload from last save, good thing it isn’t my first rodeo. Grunt and Zero are the best friends a paragon can have!
