Tips

• The Submachine Gun (if owned via DLC) is powerful but consumes ammunition quickly; save its clip for critical moments.
• Consider investing a Skill Point into 'Absolute Clarity' for a 5% XP bonus.
• Lootable objects reset when you leave and return to an area, allowing for repeated farming of resources.
• Be cautious when examining the Diving Helmet in the optional lifeboat investigation, as it drains sanity.

Collecting all key evidence in a location before concluding a case grants an additional 140 XP. Completing optional investigations like the Titania Lifeboat also provides XP and can unlock further dialogue. The specific rewards for the Hospital of St. Mary (8) itself are tied to the progression of the main investigation it is part of.
