Half-Life 2 Hints
Shed Combat Tips
1 of 5: Look in through the window that's left of the doorway to see where the headcrab is.
2 of 5: You could move into the doorway and then back really quick to get the headcrab to come out after you.
3 of 5: It's really easy to crowbar-whack as it's coming out the door (or right after it leaps at you and misses).
4 of 5: Since there are a couple of spare RPG rockets in the shed to resupply with, you could RPG the headcrab. Maximum overkill!
5 of 5: Stand next to the nearby barrels and fire a rocket in through the shed's doorway. That should kill the crab without damaging you any.
