F.E.A.R. Hints
Any special tips for this battle?
1 of 7: As soon as the lift arrives and the Replicas see you, run back and dive into the trench.
2 of 7: Swim to the other room, climb up the ladder to its upper floor, and make your way along that catwalk until you can view the room with the two big blue machines and the trench start.
3 of 7: All three enemies will probably have moved into that room, and you can take them down using SlowMo and cover.
4 of 7: Since the Heavy Armor is very slow, you could shoot down the two Replicas and then drop down and make a run for the lift.
5 of 7: As soon as you use its panel, crouch behind the nearby barrels in case the Heavy Armor manages to catch up to where he can get off some parting shots.
6 of 7: If you thought ahead and had several grenades left, you could have gone around to the lift shaft and planted some prox grenades and/or remote bombs next to the shaft (or on its walls) before turning on the lift's electricity. If you do this right, you can kill both Replicas immediately, leaving only a damaged Heavy Armor to deal with (or avoid by using the previous tip).
7 of 7: NOTE: If you put two prox grenades on the floor right in front of the lift plus one remote bomb on each side wall, the Heavy Armor may be killed by the explosions instead of just damaged.
