Quick notes
- Weapons and plasmids work together. Delta can fire a weapon and use a plasmid without the first game’s hand-switching routine.
- The drill has a fuel cost. Powered drill attacks use fuel, while the melee strike remains useful for close interactions.
- Select ammunition for the encounter. The Rivet Gun, Shotgun and other weapons support specialized ammunition.
- Spend upgrades on a reliable role. Power to the People stations offer a weapon improvement at that station.
Useful tip
Power to the People stations offer a weapon improvement at that station.
