when the action starts just run down to the central pillar with the crazy women (if you do not have super-sprint you might want to toggle stealth on). the moment you are beneath the turrets they cannot shoot you anymore. AUD on the panel (or hack it or use the code) and then just run up on the top of the bunker the belltower guys come out and hide there. after a few explosions her shield is down and you can run up stealth and use the stungun or snipe her from afar. no robot/belltower guy will even know you are there.

Or, as I'm hearing, just bring a laser rifle and shoot Zhao, since her force field (or whatever it is) doesn't block its beam.

It's reinforced glass or something.

By the time I got to Zhao I was almost fully augumented. So I just shot the turrets (hiding behind one of the pillars), then walked downstairs, destroyed robots (they could do me almost no harm as my skin was augumented), entered the codes, killed Belltower guards and Zhao. And I did everything with the use of plasma gun (there was a lot of ammo for this weapon in the last level).
It was definitely the easiest boss fight in the game. I was playing on normal level of difficulty.
1st boss: I needed two granades and few bullets to knock him down.
2nd boss: I used Typhoon three times and she was dead.
I had some problems with the 3rd boss. I needed to move and hide a lot in order to kill him. It was the most challenging fight for me. :sweat:
BTW, in the manual I found an advice about spending praxis points thougtfully as there is no way to activate all branches of auguments during the gameplay. Is that truth? By the end of the game I had almost all auguments activated (with the exception of 4-5 icons). Is it possible to gain so many points that Adam could be fully augumented?

i hacked almost everything and did everything stealthy and won every speech-challenge. that's how you get the most XP and there are a few praxis kits to find in the world. I think it was the same number, around 4-6 praxis short of everything. which means that you got everything since e.g. the "stealth enhancer" tree (6 points) and some other (radar upgrade/see thru wall) are completely useless. So I always laughed at the loading screen telling you that you have to be "carefully". This game showers you with resources and XP for each and every crap you do and totally neglects different playstyles in terms of xp rewards.

I'm amused that Mothra proclaims to hate this game while having played it all the way through twice in the most tedious way possible. :p

wtf are you talking about ?
stealth and kill are the 2 most tedious ways to play the game.....what other options are there ?
Can I ignore the storyline and become a barber or what ?
and I never claimed to hate the game, I liked it but can stil point out what bugs me

The other 3 can all be beaten without taking a scratch by using the stun gun and nothing else. Although for the first one I threw explosive barrels at him while he was stunned because I thought stun darts would be more scarce than they were.
