If you get up close, wait till they reload and charge them, then use the Shotgun or the Drill. They can also use Health Stations.Īt distance use anti-personnel ammunition in the Gatling Gun or the Incinerate Plasmid (or both). They are fast and smart and they will take up positions behind cover and try to get a line of sight so they can gun you down. The early Leadhead Splicers you’ll encounter will probably just use pistols but later on you can expect to face shotguns, machine guns, and even grenades. They also have a habit of chattering away until they see you. They are also deformed and bedraggled but often wear masks to conceal their dilapidated faces. These guys are fast, crafty and armed with ranged weapons. The Gatling Gun with the anti-personnel ammunition kills them fast and up close the Shotgun and the Drill are both great at despatching them. It is also worth using the Electro Bolt Plasmid to stun them and follow up with a weapon (although they later become immune to Electro Bolt). They are capable of using Health Stations to heal themselves.Īt distance the Incinerate Plasmid is best because they’ll be near death before they can reach you. These guys run straight at you as fast as possible and try to smash your head in with melee weapons. They often mutter to themselves or tap their weapons on the floor so you can hear them coming. They are deformed and typically appear in a messy state with a bludgeon weapon of some kind.

These guys are like enemy foot soldiers and they move fast.
BIOSHOCK 2 SHOTGUN LOCATION HOW TO
Let’s take a look at the various types, their attacks and how to kill them. You’ll need to kill a lot of Splicers to complete Bioshock 2 and they’ll attack you on sight. Splicers come in five varieties and they are so named because they’ve taken the gene splicing craze too far and become warped and twisted versions of the people they once were. Once hacked they will fire on your enemies. You can either use Distance Hack darts or the more expensive but instant Auto Hack darts. To keep yourself safe use the Hack Tool to make Security Cameras, Turrets and Security Bots into your allies. Turrets are fixed machine guns, rocket launchers or flamethrowers on tripods and they’ll fire on sight but once again they can be hacked. Both the Cameras and the Bots can be destroyed with a blast of firepower but why waste ammo? You can always just hack them by getting close. The Bots fly around and fire at you with machine guns. If a Security Camera spots you it will despatch Security Bots to kill you.

They are easy to overcome compared with some of the other foes you’ll meet but they can also be turned into useful allies if you hack them. The security measures in the city of Rapture are still functioning and this means if you get spotted you’ll be attacked. In this Bioshock 2 Enemy Guide we run through a complete list of the baddies you’ll face and include some hints and tips on how to despatch them and survive. For more on the game check out our Bioshock 2 review. As you progress through the levels you’ll encounter a wide variety of enemies and each has its own particular strengths and weaknesses. Bioshock 2 is an exciting FPS game which challenges players to take on the role of a Big Daddy and unravel a story set 10 years after the original game.
