Bioshock 2 Hints
Big Daddy Combat Tips
1 of 5: Use Telekinesis to stockpile a few explosive canisters and barrels somewhere in the diner area, then wait for the big daddy to come within sight.
2 of 5: Use the research camera on him, then use Telekinesis to hurl the explosives at him in rapid succession.
3 of 5: Be ready to catch and return a prox mine if he throws one at you (which is a common opening move for rosies).
4 of 5: When you're out of explosives, use heavy rivets and/or armor-piercing rounds to finish him off. You might also want to throw in a few Incinerate! blasts just to boost your research score.
5 of 5: If you have a couple of security bots with you that you don't mind losing, you can skip the explosives and pound the big daddy with armor-piercing rounds and heavy rivets while your bots are distracting him. By the time they're both destroyed, his health should be low, making it easy to finish him off.
