The Game Walkthrough

Finally. The hardest way. The most boring and time consuming way. If you have no decent items, no armor-piercing bullets and no money, then here is a way to defeat the daddies. Quite Simply, find the daddy, and hit it with your wrench. As much as you can. Until you die. Once you have died, you will be revived in a nearby Vita Chamber. Simply find the Daddy again, and carry on where you left off. This method is time consuming, as well as boring as hell, but it does get the job done. Eventually. Note, this is very ineffective on Hard difficulty.

Now, the most expensive way to kill Big Daddies. If you have a LOT of armor piercing bullets, about 80, then simply shoot the Daddy, preferably while your quite far away, and eventually it will kill it. This does take a while, so it is recommended to either freeze or shock your enemy, especially if it gets close to you.

If you have already received the crossbow from the artist about half-way through the game and you have some trap bolts, there is a very simple way to deal with the big daddies - Simply shoot the trap bolts at the Big Daddy, and you will find that they do a significant amount of damage. After you have shot the bolt you may want to move a bit because if you get a direct hit and you do not move, you will be hurt as well.

You will find that unless you are on the easy difficulty, Big Daddies are actually rather hard to kill. Here is one stratergy that can be employed against them:

- Use Proximity Mines: Attack a Big Daddy with a long ranged weapon, just so it is following you. Then, run away from it, dropping proximity mines as you go. If you need time to reload, you could try shocking or freezing it to buy you some time.
