  10. 10
    From the whiteboard, climb the box to the right and onto the higher ledge to find the [_SORRY MORGAN_] note and a briefcase containing: [_ETHERIC SHIELDING 19.4GHZ_] (triggers "Chipsets" tutorial), a [_MEDKIT_], [_GLUCASSIST! x5_], a [_DISRUPTOR STUN GUN_], and [_DISRUPTOR BATTERIES x500_].

    Exit the room and find a cubby with nothing and a button that opens a shortcut back to your room. Find more [_USED PLASTIC TUBING_] on a table.

  16. 16
    Go back to the wall you passed and check the broken elevator.

Tips
  • You can move corpses around, which may be handy later.
  • CHARGE your wrench attack by HOLDING R2 for increased damage.
  • Mimics can be spotted later with a Chipset for your Helmet.
  • Mimics are weak to GLOO and Q-BEAM, and immune to EMP.
  • The Disruptor Stun Gun is effective against Mimics.
  • The Science Operator can yield more [_PSI HYPO_] if you have the dismantle skill.
