Bioshock 2 Hints
Houdini Combat Tips
1 of 6: Have Incinerate! and the research camera out and ready, then quicksave before moving toward the closed east door in the houdini's room.
2 of 6: Use the camera on the houdini when she appears on top of a wooden structure, then hit her with Incinerate! and a few shots from the rivet gun and machine gun.
3 of 6: Switch to the drill and Electro Bolt when she disappears, then wait until she reappears near you.
4 of 6: Quickly hit her with Electro Bolt, and follow up with a drill dash.
5 of 6: If that doesn't finish her off, a couple of drill bashes should.
6 of 6: If you don't get the first houdini splicer research reward, restore your quicksave and try again until you do. It's important to finish your houdini research as soon as possible, since the end reward is so useful.
