F.E.A.R. Hints
How can I deal with these laser robot things?
1 of 6: You could charge in and shoot them as soon as they appear, but it's hard to dodge their laser bolts even in SlowMo mode.
2 of 6: You don't want them getting in a bunch of shots as you approach them, so it's best to retreat and lure them around a corner so that they'll be close-up for some shotgun or assault rifle blasts as soon as they appear.
3 of 6: In the first attack, retreat to the previous corridor and wait for the robot sentries to come after you one at a time, initiating SlowMo and quickly blasting them to pieces the instant they appear.
4 of 6: It only takes two short-range shotgun blasts to the robot's central body to blow it up, so use the shotgun if you have it.
5 of 6: The same sort of strategy applies when another robot sentry crashes in through a window just past the second EXIT sign down the hall beyond the first robot-attack room.
6 of 6: Retreat back around a corner so it has to come up close to you in order to get line-of-sight with you.
