Is there an easy way of dealing with Technopaths I'm not getting? I just got to Deep Storage and this loving rear end in a top hat keeps killing me, and I don't think I can kill it without using up literally all of my ammo.

i don't think they like stun guns, but more importantly as long as you keep sprinting away from their shock zones they'll be pretty useless. this is assuming there aren't other enemies in the area

Shock gun followed by wrenching them to death is pretty reliable.

EMP grenade and Q-Beam worked really well for me. Q-beam is insanely good, especially when fully upgraded. It was basically my go to weapon for anything bigger than a Phantom, dismantle also keeps you pretty flush on cells

Chuck a nullwave at it and then beat/shoot/q-beam it to death while it hides in the corner. EDIT: Or psychoshock, that cancels it's attacks too.

I still haven't found a Q Beam. I did get the first(?) bad ending though. That was neat, and it gives a huge hint at a later twist.

How do you scan poltergeists? Don't know how to make them visible.

Question about the end of the Who Is December quest: Was there a way to get to the escape pod besides gymnastics across the bridge with the GLOO gun? Assumed there was a switch to lower the bridge or something but never found it so I improvised. .

I wonder if taking him out as soon as you see him prevents that. it does, I pieced together that he was evil real fast and knocked him out when I first met him. when I met danielle and she tells you about what he did I just ran back and bashed him with a wrench. never saw a single recycler door trap

Oh man, I guess I should have done that. I shotgunned that guy in the head and got an trophy for it, but I didn't see any way to progress things unless I went hurf durf and went along with his plan. I guess it would have also counted against the Do No Harm trophy

Are there any items/areas that you need Remote Manipulation to get?

Beat the game and started a new typhon only run. Noticed a real stupid 'plothole' right from the start. You can see your sim apartment across the lab through the glass when doing the tests at the beginning during the simulation. Of course the whole thing is not at all meant to resemble a scientifically valid research experiment, but I feel like the level designers could have done something, anything to prevent this considering it is the start of the game. Additionally, I really liked that your crew quarters was the same model used in the sim, but then immediately realized how poo poo of a choice this would be in an experiment relying on memory wipes. Why confound results with possible triggers of a latent memory of hey this isn't an apartment this is my spaceship room! You could handwave the concern that your room on Talos 1 was intentionally modeled to be identical to your Earth apartment, but that's a stretch that an important company VP would be living in a 1 room 1 bath studio apartment when they are taking the company chopper to get to work 2 blocks away. There are a lot of other issues you could be a grumplegus and nitpick, but this stuff stuck out as I am playing again.

I think you're confusing plotholes with details they put in for people who are paying attention

is it possible to nerf gun open the security room door in the Talos 1 Lobby? I tried for like 5 minutes and gave the gently caress up on it. I then opened up a door using the same type of button much later on in the game, so I'm curious if I was just loving it up.

Unless you are impossibly good at bouncing darts you probably won't be able to. I've only been able to get inside by mimicing through the slot.

Needed to position myself at an appropriate height on a gloo blob to get it through one of the window slots.

Does mimicing have any use other than fitting through small gaps?

I was going to say that sounds so broken for only 11 neuromods but I guess you can get most high places with the gloo gun anyway.

So when Psychoshock says it shuts down Psi abilities does that mean all Typhon powers?

For the uninitiated:Space Station 13 posted:If a banana peel is left on the floor, anyone who steps on it will slip and fall down. There used to be a Clown job, which started with a banana and was mostly responsible for playing pranks, telling jokes, raising spirits, and getting brutally murdered by the psychotic crew. When my brother first started playing SS13, he chose Clown and spent the entire round slipping people with his banana peel, farting in their faces while they lay stunned, and then peeling out of there like a brightly coloured human rally car while furiously honking his bike horn. He did this so much and so competently that several people were actively trying to murder him, which of course led to more slipping, farting, and honking before he'd lie low in a locker somewhere until they gave up the search.
