F.E.A.R. Hints
How can I get to the second "activate" panel?
1 of 6: From the first one, head down some stairs to get to the ground floor of the room, then go straight ahead and turn right.
2 of 6: TIP: As soon as you get to the floor, turn left and go the other way to find a health booster in a dark corner. If you've gotten every health booster so far, your max health will already be 199, and you won't be able to pick up any more health boosters if you're at full health. In other words, health boosters can only be used as health restorers from now on.
3 of 6: Go through the doorway in the back of the room and explore around until you find Harlan Wade's old office. (You can tell it's his by the messages on the desk phone.)
4 of 6: Find the ladder in the back corner of the office area and climb it.
5 of 6: Follow the pathway along until you emerge back in the power link room on its uppermost walkway.
6 of 6: You can then easily get to the second blue "activate" panel and use it to finish the power linking and get the nearby security door open.
