Omikron: The Nomad Soul Hints
I need help inside the vault!
1 of 12: As an alternative way to get inside the Archives, try this path. Basic strategy and information are contained in the below hints. Due to the intense fighting, mapping the area was not possible.
2 of 12: If you find this too difficult, or feel the reward is not worth it, you can still get inside to read the confidential case files using the Non-Violent Method.
3 of 12: The minute you step into the vault, you are in gun fighting mode. Pay attention to the messages that display at the very beginning. Notice the map at the top right of your screen. As you move, so does the map view. You are the blue square. Enemies appear in red until they are destroyed, when they turn black. Also keep an eye on the enemy status window on the left. 3 or so direct hits will destroy the enemy.
4 of 12: Your objective: Seek out wall panels to open locked doors. The wall panels can be seen on the map view if you look carefully. When you find one, walk up close and Action it (press the ENTER key). Find the final door leading to the main room of the Archives. Get the money out of the vault.
5 of 12: Clearing the section completely of robots does not seem to matter. Get the doors open and go through them as quickly as you can.
6 of 12: You are an easy target up close and will die quickly. Shoot them at a distance. You can pick off a couple of robots immediately from your entry. Just stand where you are and wait for them.
7 of 12: Robots can be hidden until you get closer to them (around a corner, for instance). Sneak up and be prepared to back away or duck back behind another corner and wait for them to appear.
8 of 12: There are several levels to this area. Find a passage leading to a red corridor. Walking through there restores your energy to full and gives you a new start position if you die.
9 of 12: Several Energy restoration pads are scattered throughout the deeper sections, mostly near the wall panels. Remember where they are so you can return to them if you get low.
10 of 12: Eventually you will find a door cannot be entered by Mecaguards. Another door down the hall leads to the last Mecaguard -- the one guarding the Archive front door. Kill him and you're done with the battle.
11 of 12: When you return to the adventuring mode once more, leave Surveillance and head to the Archives. You can walk through the left door and through the one where Mecaguards could not enter to find the Vault -- and 1000 Seteks.
12 of 12: The Confidential Files can be read by entering the other door in the Archive main room, where the Mecaguard once stood.
