Tips
  • The Used Liston knife drains Blood from your target instead of applying stun. Fully upgraded, it can drain 25 Blood per hit.
  • If you die during the John Doe boss fight, you will respawn (be brought back to life at a checkpoint after death) at the top of the basement stairs, and common enemies will have respawned. Use them to refill your blood meter.
  • If you are doing a no-embrace run, treating sick citizens is an important source of XP. There is a trophy, Hippocratic oath, for treating 10 citizens.
  • If enemies drop Sodium hypochlorite solution, craft another treatment for Fatigue as there is more than one citizen suffering from it.
