BioShock 2 Plasmids & Combat

Plasmids Weapons & Upgrades Ten Combat Tips

★★★ = Must Have

★★ = Useful

★ = Not Worth It

Cyclone Trap

Level 1 ★★

★★ Throws lesser enemies into the air and drops 'em like ragdolls, letting you

attack them while they're limp. Doesn't work against bigger enemies, maybe

useful when preparing for a gather.

Level 2 ★ You can set a trap and turn it into, say, a fire pit with a blast of Incinerate! but it

seems a bit much work for little effect. Still doesn't pick up bigger enemies.

Level 3 ★

Lets you set traps on the walls and ceiling. For what purpose, we don't know.

Seems pointless, are we wrong?

Decoy

Level 1 ★★★

★★★

Gives enemies something else to shoot out. Good for distracting crowds of

splicers, or even big daddies and big sisters. Unfortunately only lasts until you

shoot the enemy to get their attention on you.

Level 2 ★★★

★★★ The dummy you create can reflect damage at enemies, making it more useful,

especially against big daddies and big sisters.

Level 3 ★★

★★ Reflect damage also heals you. Very useful in big, difficult fights, but not terribly

applicable to casual shooting and exploring.

Electro Bolt

Level 1 ★★★

★★★ Found during gameplay, in the stage Adonis Luxury Resort . Vital to opening

occasional doors, good for stunning, but uses a lot of EVE for little payoff.

Level 2 ★★★

★★★ Stun effect chains between enemies, stunning multiple splicers with one

charged shot. Not too shabby, but still uses lots of EVE.

Level 3 ★★

★★ Gives you a steady stream of shocking power for a continuous stun, but it

drains EVE so quickly that it barely stuns longer than a charged shot from

Electro Bolt 2. Bleh.

Hypnotize

Level 1 ★★

★★ Good for talking a splicer into attacking a big daddy for you. The splicer will die,

but at least deal some damage to the daddy before you go at him. Not terribly

useful, though.

Level 2 ★★

★★★

Tag a splicer with a charged shot and he'll follow you around until he dies.

Pretty useful, especially at distracting bigger enemies like daddies and big

sisters. Don't expect him to live long, though. Wears off eventually, but takes a

long time.

Level 3 ★★

★★★

Just like Hypnotize 2, except it now works on big daddies. Very useful in fights

against big sisters, but otherwise probably overkill unless you're really against

fighting on your own. Wears off eventually, but takes a long time.

Incinerate!

Level 1 ★★★

★★★ Purchased during gameplay, in the stage Ryan Amusements . Possibly the

best attack plasmid. Enemies on fire will spread the fire to other splicers, and

generally don't attack you while they flail around. Good for stopping big

daddies, brute splicers and alpha series.

Level 2 ★★

★★ Gives you a more powerful, bigger blast of Incinerate! when charged, but isn't,

in our opinion, really worth it.

Level 3 ★★

★★ Good for catching lots of enemies on fire at once, but it burns through EVE so

quickly that it's only useful if you've got your EVE storage increased.

Insect Swarm

Level 1 ★★

★★ Useful against big enemies. Doesn't deal a lot of damage, but does do a lot of

distracting and it lasts a pretty long time. Keep a big daddy busy with the

swarm and unload.

Level 2 ★ Not really sure how this is more effective than the standard swarm. May be

better about moving from one enemy to the next, but since it's most useful

against big enemies, this usefulness is pretty moot.

Level 3 ★ Bodies that you kill with the swarm become proximity mines to swarm others

that walk by. Seems kinda pointless to us.

Scout

Level 1 ★★

★★ Good for checking out for enemies up ahead, or for setting plasmid-based traps

in rooms where you expect a tough fight. Tough to do a lot of damage with it,

so consider it more for exploration.

Level 2 ★ Gives the added benefit of allowing you to hack security measures. Could be

useful for moving into splicer-infested areas with a camera or turret and turning

it against them before you (the physical you) shows up.

Security Command

Level 1 ★★

★★★

Good for directing your security bots or cameras when they're annoyingly doing

a bad job of picking up enemies. Costs almost no EVE, so it's decently useful.

Level 2 ★★★

★★★

Allows you to expend the rest of your current EVE meter to summon a security

bot to follow you. Useful, but you can get security bots by triggering alarms and

hacking them instead.

Level 3 ★★

★★ Allows you to summon a powered-up version of a security bot. Good for

creating more long-lasting distractions for big daddies and big sisters.

Summon Eleanor

Level 1 ★★★

★★★ Uber-powerful, but it costs an entire EVE meter (or whatever EVE you've got

left in your current meter). Long-lasting and very effective in big fights where

you have too many enemies to keep track of.

Telekinesis

Level 1 ★★★

★★★ Found during gameplay, in the stage The Atlantic Express . Great for

intercepting and tossing back explosive items from big daddies and alpha

series enemies. Also lets you pick up items that are out of reach, and won't

even use your EVE meter so long as you don't throw the item (press the reload

button to drop an item you can't take and don't want to throw).

Level 2 ★ The best things to throw are explosives and this doesn't appear to increase the

damage they deal. Your EVE and ADAM are probably best spent elsewhere,

unless you want to get...

Level 3 ★★★

★★★ Can now grab enemy bodies...while they're still alive! Doesn't work on big guys,

but still very useful. You can grab an enemy, use melee attacks to kill him, then

press the reload button to drop the body without spending a bit of EVE or even

ammo.

Winter Blast

Level 1 ★★★

★★★ Surprisingly effective! Keeps enemies still, making for easy shots and nullifying

their offense, plus effectively increases the damage of your weapons.

Especially good versus powerful enemies.

Level 2 ★★★

★★★ Charged shot holds enemies frozen longer. Very effective against bigger

enemies, like big daddies, but overkill versus splicers.

Level 3 ★ Lets you unload a continual blast of ice, good for freezing multiple enemies but

ultimately kind of pointless since you then have to destroy the ice blocks of

multiple enemies at the same time. Use with frag grenades if you must use it.

Plasmids Weapons & Upgrades Ten Combat Tips

★★★ = Must Have

★★ = Useful

★ = Not Worth It

Drill

Deceptively effective, at least once you get the drill dash during the Pauper's Drop stage. With the drill

dash, you can cross great distances in the blink of an eye, good for rushing regular splicers or slipping

under security cameras.

Fuel

Efficiency

★★ Helpful, but not a huge help since the drill still burns up fuel at a pretty quick

clip. Since the drill dash is the best attack anyway, a bit of extra fuel economy

isn't a big deal.

Damage

Increase

★★★ With the damage increased, you can kill most splicers with a single drill dash,

making it perfect for dropping spider splicers that rush you.

Reflector

Upgrade

★

Uses lots of fuel without doing much more than a wall would if you stood behind

it.

Launcher

You won't ever have enough ammo that the launcher becomes your main weapon, but it's certainly useful

in the toughest situations. Proximity mines are great for setting traps when you're expecting a big fight.

Clip Size ★ Increases clip from three to five rounds. Not terribly useful unless you're using

the launcher a lot.

Damage

Immunity

★★★ Huge help! If you fire the launcher at an enemy that's close by, you'll end up

taking splash damage...unless you've got this upgrade.

Cluster

Bomb

Upgrade

★★ Adds a significant extra punch to every shot you shoot. Especially effective

against groups of enemies, but could also help in fighting bigger enemies like

big daddies and big sisters.

Machine Gun

Because it's hard to score head shots with the machine gun, you'll go through a lot of ammo trying to kill

stuff. It's very effective at dealing with multiple enemies at once, and probably best used with armor-

piercing rounds against big daddies and big sisters. But it's probably not a good fall-back, go-to gun for

general explorin'.

Damage

Increase

★★ Gets you some extra punch from every round of ammo you've got, certainly

worth it and good for fighting off the bigger enemies of the game.

Recoil

Reduction

★★

Accuracy will increase tenfold with this upgrade. If you find yourself using the

machine gun a lot, definitely consider reducing the recoil to avoid wasting

ammo.

Ricochet

Upgrade

★

Strikes us as pointless, unless you want to spend a lot of ammo shooting

around walls in the hopes that a few bullets hit your target.

Rivet Gun

It may be basic and seem weak, but the more you use the weapon the more you'll come to love it. It's

excellent for its accuracy, which you absolutely must exploit. Go for head shots and the damage of the gun

will be surprisingly good, especially against alpha series enemies and splicers.

Damage

Increase

★★★ With the damage increase, head shots will net you one-shot kills against most

splicers, making the rivet gun a solid sniping tool.

Clip Size ★★

★★ We never really found the standard clip size to be a problem, but this'll give you

a clip of 18 rounds versus the stock 12. Useful in combating large groups to

reduce the number of times you need to reload.

Heat

Upgrade

★★ Sets things on fire, which is always cool in our book. However, if you're already

going for head shots then you'll likely be getting kills way before the enemy

gets ignited.
