Bioshock Hints

Look: Find Big Daddy Boots.

  • 1 of 7: From the decontamination chambers, go down the west hall and through the door labeled "Candidate Conversion."
  • 2 of 7: In the large room past the short hallway, watch out for two turrets.
  • 3 of 7: Go to the back of the room to find that the boots aren't there as Tenenbaum had thought they would be.
  • 4 of 7: Look around for a clue as to where the boots were taken.
  • 5 of 7: There's one on the desk near the NW corner of the room.
  • 6 of 7: Pick up the "Missing Boots" audio diary to change this goal to "Look: Find Big Daddy Boots in the library."
  • 7 of 7: TIPS: Before you leave this area, find the safe and machine gun ammo in the NW corner, and the crossbow and ammo behind the trap bolts in the SW corner. (Also note that you can find lots of components by searching containers, then use them at the U-Invent machine.)
