I am actually quite bad at making content. I wanted to post Arke yesterday but I saw I haven't taken enough screenshots for a comprehensive explanation.
Made my way to the North area and hid in this here hole to clear the Tchort stacks.
Took the Tchortist armour on the way there from one of the corpses.
Went to the Tchortist Oupost to the West next. Have you read the Original Report?
And opened Previc's shop. A good place to stock on some extra bullets and explosives if I happen to need them.
Went back to the previous area, cleared the stacks again and head to the West.
I pretty much clicked on the corpses to the South and stealthed the whole way through. There's an Industrial Bot to the West of my character, but it's not a problem to sneak around.
Grabbed Leo's knife from that dead Tchortist around the corner.
And head for the closes area exit which leads to these Faceless.
After telling me to go meet the Commander I went to the adjacent area to the West to grab this key and open that door there to connect my stash and Caerus.
On the way to Talos Outpost I met with Leo.
Learned the Echoing Soliloquy.
And finally met with the Faceless Commander.
Since I was good with them I stocked up on more ammo.
The doctor even gave me Super Health Hypos.
Went back to my stash through Caerus to unload and prepare for Arke. This is what I took.
On the way there I checked a bunch of the loot in Warehouse Block B and found this Tungsten Plate, which is pretty cool. Too bad I won't use it.
Making my way through the bugs in front of Arke was relatively easy. Just a matter of waiting for them to separate a bit and use TB to pass through conveniently. Still I'd have liked to be a bit more descriptive here. Guess I had that easy of a time going through. I can also easily fight them, it's just that it takes a while to finish.
With that out of the way I hit Arke proper.
The red line pretty much explains my character's movement. I pass by the camera using TB while it's looking away to reach that position. There's one bot patrolling the blue line back and forth and one following the green line around that pillar thing. I can take a peek around the corner when the camera is looking away. First I wait for TB to come off cooldown as there is one more camera to the North which can easily be bypassed that way. Personally, I prefer to wait for the blue bot to approach so I can pass by it while it's moving in the opposite direction. Using TB to do that is bad because you will give the bot more time to detect you. Even mediocre stealth is good enough to walk past the bots. That way I can use TB to pass by the camera to the North without it alerting the rest of the bots.
I am not afraid to get spot by the turrets as I have enough Initiative to always take first turn. Still, not remembering at which tile I can begin combat I pretty much waste one turn doing nothing. It looks a bit odd. I just like having the MP in case the EMP is a wonky throw.
It was a good throw. I took one of the Southern turrets down and Tased the bot that came to investigate. Moved away to the Northern wall after that.
More bots approached and I took down the two Plasma Sentries - one was Tased from the turn before. The turrets was still disabled from the EMP so this was safe for now.
Took down the turret with a convenient crit and froze the bot for one turn. It still works on them, but only for a single turn. I also noticed that Sentry Bot that was approaching from the back. I thought I could hide well enough if I moved to the corner next to the Industrial bot.
I was wrong as it had enough AP to Flashbang me in the corner there. I should have anticipated that and used a Bullhead. Still, they couldn't do much more than drain some shield which I put on beforehand. After that I just created some space and EMP'd them.
Followed by a 'nade to clean up.
Got a few convenient crits on the Industrial Bot.
And finished the turrets from around the corner.
Note that all this time I was moving close to the walls. It helps to avoid any potential mines. Having the shields up will soak them, as well.
In the next zone I moved to the adjacent room with the broken console first. It requires a bunch of Electronics to fix and opens the shorter way.
There's one bot patrolling the blue line but it's quite slow. Once it disappeared from view I moved to the entrance and following the red line in TB parked myself at that spot there. There's a camera in the next room which will beep but it won't have enough time to alert the bots.
Waited for TB to come off cooldown and repeated the same following the red line again. That spot there will keep my character out of the camera's field of view. Moving around that corner in TB also means you will be safe from the electrocuted tiles as this camera will trigger them even when it beeps, i.e., without reaching a state of alert.
There's an obstacle with a Str check which I passed with an Adrenaline Shot. Another cool part which I won't use
.
There's one patrolling Plasma Sentry which I wait for and stab here.
Then with no fear I just ran to this room here because there are no more bots around. There's a camera that will alert the bots but they will come to investigate only as far the red dot, i.e., the character's last visible to the camera spot.
I grabbed the quest item and refreshed stealth at that point there. Next I took an Adrenaline Shot, activated stealth and moved out. Activated TB and moved as far as I could in the direction of that tile there. The camera will beep but won't have enough time to alert the bots.
Back the same way.
Again, wait for the Sentry Bot to pass by. I walked for the blue line and TB'd the red one. You could even use the Adrenaline Shot trick again.
Back to the first area.
Sneak in reverse.
There's one Plasma Sentry patrolling close to this room, but it's quite easy to pass by. Anyways, grabbed the quest items and made my way back to the previous area.
You know the drill by now.
The only difference being that I triggered the metal plates. Since I can't know which way that camera in the corner there will point at when I move around the corner you always have to move in TB around it to stay safe.
Killed that Plasma Sentry for the second time.
And again, just ran without fear of the camera alerting the bots. As you can see they investigate only as far as the entrance goes.
In the basement I put on the melee immune set.
And played some cat and mouse with the bugs.
Once clear I dumped all my electronic stuff in this here container.
And I alerted them Coil Spider around. Note those Explosive Barrels. Since I have full Electric immunity I am not afraid to stand close to them. If you have like 99% or less their Electrokinesis will bounce off of you and trigger the barrels. Something to keep in mind.
Anyways, here they go boom.
Didn't take my Tesla Armour off until I was done exploring everything as there can be stragglers who hide around. Sneaky bastards.
Continued on and in the last room of the basement the bugs managed to apply their poison because I've put the wrong boots on.
Still, managed to kill the bug quick enough and close the door to wait the poison out.
For the next area I put on the Detection head gear on. I waited for this Industrial Bot there to approach my position so I could walk past him. Again, I followed the red line. That way you will avoid the mines. There's one more mine at the end of the red line there to the East wall.
Sneak in this here room, get the quest item.
Opened the rear door and the one leading to the first Arke area with that console there. There's a Sentry Bot patrolling the blue line so I hid in this spot here to avoid being seen while stealth is on cooldown. You can easily walk past the bot if you move to the wall.
With that I moved to the East. Note that mine there at the stairs which I mentioned earlier.
Found myself here. I just waited for this camera to point South and walked on the blue line. When I reached under the camera I activated TB and carried on. It will beep but it won't have enough time to alert the bots.
There's a Sentry Bot patrolling the blue line but when I exited the kitchen I saw it was moving away so I just head straight to this room here. There's a camera in that corridor there and it will alert the bots but they will investigate only as far as the red circle.
Grabbed the quest item. I spied the Sentry Bot from that location there and used TB to move around the corner so that the camera won't have enough time to alert the bots.
I went back to the previous area and this time I aimed for that route there. There's a camera on the tile with the blue circle so I waited for the Sentry Bot to move away and the camera to look to the West before I moved out.
After I reached the camera I TB'd the rest of the way as to avoid it alerting the bots. I waited here for cooldowns. There's a Plasma Sentry Patrolling the blue line which I kept an eye on. Once cooldowns were back on I waited for it to head towards the elevator and followed it.
Once it moved away from this narrow passage I activated TB and slipped in.
With that I was finally able to pull the plug on Arke.
For now I applied the power like so.
And put on some fighting gear to deal with the bots.
Went down and burst the first one as it was next to the elevator.
More quickly followed.
Opened up with an EMP.
Followed up with a Plasma 'Nade.
While those were disabled more joined, so I tossed another Plasma 'Nade.
And cleaned the last remaining few with another EMP.
Made my way past the bugs again.
And was done with Arke.
I will take it. Honestly - could be worse.
