While not explicitly 'side quests', mastering advanced combat techniques can be considered an optional activity that significantly enhances your gameplay. Practice combining different melee combos, such as transitioning from a punch combo into a kick combo, or using a grab to set up a powerful throw. Experiment with environmental takedowns, like throwing enemies off ledges or into explosive objects. Learn to parry specific enemy attacks by blocking at the precise moment of impact. The training room in the TCTF Headquarters (accessible in certain chapters) can be revisited to hone these skills against holographic opponents without consequence. Mastering these will make you an unstoppable force.
