Welcome to my guide to Bioshock 2!

I’ll keep this brief, as I doubt you really want to hear me go on and would 
rather I just get right to the guide.

So, this guide has everything you should need to know, including Weapon 
Upgrades, Plasmid Lists, Audio Diaries, etc, etc...

Oh, and I'll warn you now, while I've ketp spoilers to a minimum, they are 
there, so be careful about where you read.

So, let’s get to it!

Oy



 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 | Weapons and Upgrades -                                               |
 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+


Drill
-----

The Drill is your basic weapon for the duration of the game. It can be swung 
with a quick tap of the button, or revved for drilling damage if you hold the 
button down.

Also, you’ll eventually learn the ability to Drill Dash, which requires that you
rev the drill and hit the Melee button to go zooming forward into whatever 
unfortunate Splicer is in front of you. 


Basic Upgrades
 - Drill Fuel Efficiency – Cooling nozzles lubricate the drill, reducing the 
                           speed of fuel consumption.
 - Drill Damage Increase – Augers on the side of the Drill Increase Damage. 
                           Damage increase applies to both Drill Spin and Melee
                           attacks with the drill. 

Final Upgrade
 - Drill Reflector Upgrade – A large electromagnetic dynamo is powered by the 
                             drill rotation. Incoming projectiles will be 
                             reflected back at attacker while the Drill is 
                             spinning.

Rivet Gun
---------

The Rivet gun is essentially your handgun for the game. Accurate and powerful, 
it’s best to quickly learn to get a headshot with this weapon. 

With the extra inclusion of the Trap Rivet’s, which are great for aiding in 
beefing up the defences of an area.


Ammunition Types
 - Rivets - Rivets do a moderate amount of piercing damage. 
 - Heavy Rivets - Heavy Rivets do a moderate amount of armour-piercing damage.
                  Especially deadly with headshots. 
 - Trap Rivets - Trap Rivets do a moderate amount of piercing damage. When fired
                 they will stick to objects and shoot a secondary rivet when an
                 enemy nears. Unused Trap Rivets can be picked up and reused.

Basic Upgrades
 - Rivet Gun Damage Increase – A high-pressure firing mechanism provides greater
                              penetration and Damage. 
 - Rivet Gun Clip Size – A larger magazine increases the clip size, resulting in
                         50% more shots before reloading. 

Final Upgrade
 - Rivet Gun Heat Upgrade – An internal heating mechanism heats rivets to a 
                            white-hot temperature before they are fired. May 
                            ignite living creatures on repeated shots.  

Hack Tool
---------

While the Hacking Tool isn’t a weapon itself, it can be very useful for 
strategically getting rid of Splicers before they even know you’re there. With a
near unlimited range, you can hack any machine and turn it to your side before 
it becomes a problem.

Not to mention that you can also use it to deploy a miniature turret to aid in 
the defence of an area. 

Of course, hacking itself is now done in real-time, so it’s always best to fire 
off your darts and then duck for cover, just in case things don’t go your way. 
And if you can, always try to stop the hacking needle on the Blue section, as 
it’s always worth it. 


Ammunition Types
 - Remote Hack Darts - Remote Hack Darts hack machines at a distance.
 - Automatic Hack Darts - Bypasses a machine's defences to automatically hack
                          a machine.
 - Miniature Turrets - Miniature Turrets automatically fire at Enemies. They 
                       only last a set amount of time before auto-detonating.

Machine Gun
-----------

The Machine Gun pretty much speaks for itself, and fulfils the same requirement
that it did in the last game. 

Just point it at a Splicer or Big Daddy and just let the bullets fly. Assuming 
you can cope with the recoil that it. 


Ammunition Types
 - .50 calibre rounds - Deals a moderate amount of damage.
 - Anti-Personnel rounds - Deals a high amount of damage against Splicers.
 - Armour-Piercing rounds - Deal a high amount of damage against Security, Big 
                            Daddies, and Big Sisters. 

Basic Upgrades
 - Machine Gun Damage Increase - Reinforced barrels allow for increased muzzle 
                                 pressure and a higher damage output. 
 - Machine Gun Recoil Reduction - A stabilization cylinder reduces the kickback
                                  of the Machine Gun, resulting in more accurate
                                  fire. 

Final Upgrade
 - Machine GunRicochet Upgrade - A high density electrical field prevents shots
                                 from breaking up on first impact, causing them
                                 to Ricochet. 

Shotgun
-------

Switching from a pump-action in the first game to a double barrel in this; the 
shotgun itself hasn’t undergone any major changes in terms of use. It’s still a
good idea to be up close and personal with your enemies, and always a good idea
to aim for the head. You just have to remember to reload a little more often.

Ammunition Types
 - 00 Buck - Deals a moderate amount of damage.
 - Solid Slug - Deals a high amount of damage in the form of a single shot.
 - Phosphorus Buck - Deals a low amount of damage, then deals a high amount of
                     fire damage and ignites the target. 

Basic Upgrades
 - Shotgun Clip Size – A double revolver mechanism allows 6 shots before 
                       reloading. 
 - Shotgun Damage Increase - A sawed off barrel increases damage of all ammo 
                             types. 

Final Upgrade
 - Shotgun Tesla Upgrade - Kinetic energy from firing is used to charge several
                           dynamos, randomly generating an electric shock. 

Research Camera
---------------

* See Research and Enemy Data Section - 

Speargun
--------

Much in the same way as the Crossbow did in the previous game; this weapon is 
great for pinning things to walls. The Trap Spears make a welcome return, but 
now is the added bonus of the Rocket Spears, which allow for some fun in the 
midst of battle.

Ammunition Types
 - Spears - Deal a high amount of damage. These can be recovered after use. 
 - Rocket Spears - Ignites all nearby enemies, dealing a high amount of damage 
                   and explodes after time. Splicers hit by this will run 
                   towards other Splicers, while Splicers killed will stay 
                   attached to it while it propels itself forward.
 - Trap Spears - Deal a small amount of damage upon a direct hit and a high 
                 amount of electrical damage once deployed. If the spear kills 
                 and pins an opponent on impact, the electrified trip-wire will
                 still deploy as normal. 

Basic Upgrades
 - Speargun Zoom Increase - Additional scope provides increased zoom, allowing 
                            you to aim with pinpoint accuracy.
 - Speargun Damage Increase - A rotary mechanism adds spin to spears, resulting
                              in grater penetration and damage.  

Final Upgrade
 - Speargun Acceleration Upgrade - A reinforced firing spring and retooled 
                                   barrel allow for much faster spear travel and
                                   decreased refire time. Spears will reach 
                                   their target much faster and pin enemies at
                                   longer distances. 

Launcher
--------

Speaking for itself by its name alone, the Launcher is your big explosive weapon
for the day. With explosives, mines and rockets, it’s fully equipped for a lot 
of damage and fun. But getting the cluster bomb upgrade will make the fun last 
longer.

Ammunition Types
 - Frag Grenades - Frag Grenades do a high amount of damage in a large radius. 
 - Proximity Mines - Proximity Mines do a high amount of damage in a large 
                     radius. Will Stick to floors and Walls.
 - Heat-Seeking RPG's - Heat-Seeking RPG's do a high amount of damage in a large
                        radius. Will track the nearest target, even around 
                        corners. 

Basic Upgrades
 - Launcher Clip Size - A larger ammo box means more bang for the buck. Also 
                        increase the amount of each ammo type you can carry.
 - Launcher Damage Immunity - A shaped deflector prevents splash damage from 
                              your own explosives. 

Final Upgrade
 - Launcher Cluster Bomb Upgrade - Additional munitions are screwed into each 
                                   shot, triggering secondary explosions in a 
                                   wide radius. Perfect for clearing a room!

 | ADAM, Plasmids and Gene Tonics -                                     |
 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

ADAM Amounts
------------

So, you want to get the maximum amount of ADAM out of the game, huh? But not 
sure if you should be saving your Little Sisters or harvesting them?

Well then, here’s a quick guide to how much ADAM you can get depending on your 
choices...

You’re guaranteed to get 80 ADAM when using your Little Sister to gather, and 
then can either get 80 or 160 depending on if you Save or Harvest her, like so:
 - Saving a Little Sister = 40+40+80=160
 - Harvesting a Little Sister = 40+40+160=240

However, you can increase the amount of ADAM the Little Sister Harvest with the
Proud Parent Gene Tonic, like so:
 - Saving a Little Sister = 60+60+80=200
 - Harvesting a Little Sister = 60+60+160=280

And of course, you can get some from Big Sisters and Sea Slugs, as well as a 
possible gift if you choose to Save them, not to mention a few other places 
along the way.

So how does it all add up? Well, here’s the simple version:

              |ADAM| 1 | 2 | 3 |
--------------+----+---+---+---+
SAVE          | 160| 4 | 0 | 4 |
SAVE+         | 200| 8 | 0 | 0 |
HARVEST       | 240| 0 |12 | 0 |
HARVEST+      | 280| 0 | 0 | 8 |
GIFT (1)      |  80| 1 | 0 | 1 |
GIFT (2)      | 120| 1 | 0 | 0 |
GIFT (3)      | 250| 1 | 0 | 0 |
BIG SISTERS   |  40| 7 | 7 | 7 |
LITTLE SISTER |  40| 3 | 3 | 3 |
RESCUE        |  50| 2 | 2 | 2 |
SEA SLUGS     |  10| 5 | 5 | 5 |

(The + means it uses the Proud Parent Gene Tonic)

 - Option 1:
   This is where you rescue all the Little Sisters. As you can see in the above 
   chart, you get 4 Sisters at the normal Save amount, and then 8 at the Proud 
   Parent Save amount. Added in with the three gifts you get for rescuing them,
   and all the extra stuff, you get:

   3240 ADAM


 - Option 2:
   This one has you Harvesting all of the Little Sisters. As you don’t get the 
   Proud Parent Gene Tonic as a gift, all 12 Sisters give you the standard 
   Harvest amount. Added to the other stuff, but with no gifts, 
   you get:

   3430 ADAM


 - Option 3:
   The third option is to Save 4 Little Sisters to obtain the Proud Parent Gene 
   Tonic, and then Harvest the remaining 8 Little Sisters at the higher level. 
   Adding in the single gift you get, and all the extra stuff, you get:

   3510 ADAM

So what you decide to do is up to you.

 | Research and Enemy Data -                                            |
 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

The Research camera returns, although now as a Film Camera rather than a 
Polaroid. 

When you spot a Splicer, just select the camera and set it rolling, and then lay
waste to the fool in any way possible. The more you differ in your ways of 
execution, the quicker you’ll gain points to level up your Research. 

Which is a good thing, as you get lots of goodies for it...


Thuggish Splicer
----------------
Thuggish Splicers are your basic melee opponents. They’re easy to kill from a 
distance, and don’t cause too much of a problem. Just stay calm and aim for the
head. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against Thuggish Splicers
 - Level 2: Increased wallet cap from 600 dollars to 800
 - Level 3: Increased damage against Thuggish Splicers
 - Level 4: Scrounger gene tonic 

Leadhead Splicer
----------------
Leadhead‘s come in many varieties; some wielding pistols, machine guns and even
shotguns. While neither one is more or less dangerous than the other, they can 
do some damage when they jump you in large numbers. It’s usually best to take 
care of nearby ones first, as they’re more likely to hit you. Just zero in on 
them and take ‘em down one at a time. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against Leadhead Splicers
 - Level 2: Slowed security response
 - Level 3: Increased damage against Leadhead Splicers
 - Level 4: Thrifty Hacker gene tonic 

Houdini Splicer
---------------
Houdini Splicers haven’t changed all that much from the previous game. They can
teleport around the place, jumping you from behind as well as above. Keep an eye
out for their telltale smoke signal for when they’re teleporting in. They’ll 
usually stick to hurling fireballs at you from a distance, which can do some 
damage, so it’s best to keep moving and keep attacking them.

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against Houdini Splicers
 - Level 2: Easier to spot Houdini Splicers when teleporting
 - Level 3: Increased damage against Houdini Splicers
 - Level 4: Natural Camouflage gene tonic 

Brute Splicer
-------------
Brute Splicers can be tough nuts to crack if you’re not careful. Being as strong
as a Big Daddy, even able to charge you at speed, with the added ability to 
throw things at you, if you’re unprepared you’ll be in for a world of hurt. 
Anti-Personal rounds work the best, but these guys have a lot of health, so make
sure you’re carrying a lot of them. They can also be quite vulnerable to 
Plasmids, so be sure to use them both in combination. 

Research
 - Level 1: New Drill Dash ability
 - Level 2: Increased melee damage
 - Level 3: Increased damage against Brute Splicers
 - Level 4: Armoured Shell 2 gene tonic 

Spider Splicer
--------------
Spider Splicers can be more annoying that tough. With their quick reflexes and 
ability to jump from wall to wall, they can be hard to hit. Stunning them with 
Electro-bolt will help to slow them down enough to pelt them with bullets, and 
other Plasmids can be effective at whittling down their health too.

Research
 - Level 1: Faster movement speed
 - Level 2: Spider Splicer organs act as first aid kits
 - Level 3: Even faster movement speed
 - Level 4: Fountain of Youth gene tonic 

Alpha Series
------------
The Alpha series are quicker, but more susceptible versions of Big Daddy’s. 
Usually coming equipped with a Launcher or a Machine Gun, they’ll use all your 
own tricks back at you to try to take you down. However, their lack of armour 
makes them rather easy to take down, especially with Armour Piercing rounds, and
they’re still vulnerable to Plasmids. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against the Alpha Series
 - Level 2: Increased ammo carrying capacity
 - Level 3: Increased damage against the Alpha Series
 - Level 4: Elemental Storm gene tonic 

Big Daddy
---------
Big Daddies now come in three different varieties. The Bouncer is your standard
melee attacker, with the trademark drill and Drill Dash attack. The Rosie still
wields a Rivet gun, allowing them to shoot at you from a distance. But the 
newest addition to the Big Daddy family is the Rumbler. Able to fire rockets at 
you, and deploy Mini Turrets to shoot you, it can make for some hectic fights 
where you’ll have to think quickly to take them down. All Big Daddies are 
vulnerable to Armour Piercing rounds, and using the Security Command Plasmid can
turn a Rumbler’s turrets back at them. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against big daddies
 - Level 2: Increased drill damage
 - Level 3: Increased damage against big daddies
 - Level 4: Arms Race gene tonic 

Big Sister
----------
Certainly the toughest enemy you’ll face in the game. While being quick and able
to jump at you from walls, they can also throw fireballs at you, pick up several
pieces of debris to hurl your way, and even pick up and drain a wandering 
Splicer to regain health. You’ll always have a little warning before they show 
up, although their appearances are rather predictable anyway, in which you can 
set traps and get prepared. With a huge health bar to whittle down, it’s best to
let rip with Armour Piercing rounds from the Machine Gun and let her have it as
quick as possible. But don’t forget that stunning her can be effective too. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased maximum EVE capacity
 - Level 2: Free health restoration after gathering ADAM
 - Level 3: Increased maximum EVE capacity
 - Level 4: Drill Vampire gene tonic 

Security
--------
Security can mean any piece of malicious tech you happen to stumble upon on your
journey. Machine Turrets, Rocket Turrets, Security Camera’s; all count towards 
this one area, and all of them can be tackled in the same basic way. Zap or 
Freeze them, and then either hack directly or fire a hacking dart at it, the 
latter of which can be useful for dealing with Splicers before they know you’re
there. 

Research
 - Level 1: Increased damage against security
 - Level 2: Double ammo on destroyed security
 - Level 3: Increased damage against security
 - Level 4: Deadly Machines gene tonic
