“The chances of surviving are… slim.” — Spoilers for Mass Effect 2 follow.

Hock is the antagonist of Kasumi Goto's loyalty mission, Stealing Memory. Speaking with a strong Afrikaans accent, he resides in a mansion on the planet Bekenstein, surrounded by fields and a lake, with a city in the distance. Hock is a patron of artist June Fasha. His mansion contains a vault with priceless artifacts and works of art including Michelangelo's David and the head of the Statue of Liberty. How he obtained these items is unknown. Hock killed Kasumi's former partner, Keiji Okuda, and stole his graybox, which contained a secret that, if exposed, would implicate the Alliance. However, Okuda had encrypted the graybox.

Commander Shepard, under an assumed alias, and Kasumi, infiltrate Hock's vault, but when they recover the graybox, Hock -- who had suspected Kasumi's involvement -- shows up as a holographic projection and confronts Shepard and Kasumi. After his mechs and Eclipse mercs fail to stop them, Hock takes matters into his own hands by flying an A-61 Mantis Gunship, equipped with its own personal shield. Kasumi, however, gets in close and disables the shield, allowing herself and the Commander to shoot Hock down. Hock is killed in the resulting explosion.

Tactics Edit

Donovan Hock makes use of the A-61 Mantis Gunship. This ship is armored and has the unique ability to regenerate its shields. While fighting Hock, Eclipse mercs will be boxing you in from all sides. Hit Hock's shields until Kasumi talks about clearing a path for her. Once you have killed the mercs, a cutscene will be triggered showing Kasumi acrobatically jumping onto Hock's gunship and disabling the shield. From there, it's as simple as taking cover and opening fire on Hock's exposed gunship.
