Library Combat Tips
1 of 10: Listen for a splicer to talk to you as you approach the library doors.
2 of 10: If one does, wait outside until he comes out after you.
3 of 10: Freeze and shatter him (or whatever you want to do), then get ready to destroy a security camera.
4 of 10: The camera is on the ceiling to the right as you go through the doors, so quickly disable it and shoot it to pieces.
5 of 10: An RPG turret is just down the hall beyond the camera.
6 of 10: If you move around next to the fallen-over bookcase, the turret will see you and fire, but it won't be able to hit you.
7 of 10: Jump over the bookcase and approach the turret, making sure it still can't hit you.
8 of 10: Quickly freeze it and hack it, then move into the library's main room.
9 of 10: Hack or destroy the health station near the NW corner, then move over to the central "square" area to wake up a houdini splicer.
10 of 10: Run back to your hacked turret and dodge the splicer's attacks until the turret can kill her for you.
