Splicer Combat Tips
1 of 8: You'll probably hear a whistling splicer going past somewhere nearby, so crouch down and sneak out the study's east door.
2 of 8: Go straight across from there and through another door.
3 of 8: On your right is a bar that has a turret behind it.
4 of 8: Crouch-walk over to the left end of the bar and wait under cover for your random plasmid to switch to Electro Bolt or Winter Blast, or get out the chemical thrower and set it to liquid nitro.
5 of 8: When you're ready, quickly run around the corner and zap-and-hack the turret.
6 of 8: Wait somewhere near the turret for splicers to wander into its range, then help it kill them. If none wander in, go get some to follow you in.
7 of 8: The nitro splicer can be a pain if you don't have the Telekinesis plasmid ready, so you may have to use some heavy weaponry on him like grenades, chemical thrower, etc.
8 of 8: Or you might want to try to sneak out without him seeing you, thereby avoiding the whole fight. (Though you won't be able to look around for supplies afterward.)
