Tips
- The Submachine Gun (if owned via DLC) is powerful but consumes ammunition quickly; save it for critical moments.
- Consider investing the free Skill Point (if owned via DLC) into the Absolute Clarity Mind skill for a 5% XP bonus.
- Lootable objects can be repeatedly looted for ammunition and crafting materials. Their contents reset upon leaving and returning to the area.
- Be cautious when examining the Diving Helmet in the Titania Lifeboat, as it drains sanity.
