Bioshock 2 Hints
Skid Row Tips
1 of 11: Search the brute splicer, then wait for a leadhead splicer to run into his area. Hopefully, your hacked camera will see him and call in some bots. (If not, drill-dash him!)
2 of 11: Hack the vending machine that's along the north side of the brute's area, hitting a red zone and running for the bot shutdown panel in the passage to the west if you don't already have two hacked bots with you.
3 of 11: Look south of the hacked camera for a corpse and drill fuel near the top of some steps. There's more drill fuel near the edge of the concrete that's opposite the steps. (It's a bit west of the Gene Bank machine.)
4 of 11: Go down the steps (or drop down from the other side) and explore the underground Limbo Room area next.
5 of 11: After leaving the Limbo Room, go back past your hacked camera and up the stairs on the left.
6 of 11: Look for a trash can near the bot shutdown panel, then move on down the passage until you find a large alcove on the right that contains a rivet gun, a dead rosie, an audio diary, and two storage crates.
7 of 11: Follow the passage until it exits to the market area, then turn left and dart-hack the security camera you can see in the distance.
8 of 11: Move into the camera's area and deal with any splicers that appear. After they stop coming, dart-hack the rocket turret that's in the room to the SE. (You might want to deactivate your bots a ways back first to make sure they don't attack the turret.)
9 of 11: As you look around the market area for supplies, keep an eye out for random splicers. They appear more frequently in this area than any other, so use that to max out your thuggish and leadhead camera research (if you haven't already) and to get lots of loot items.
