II.Weaponry

This part is the ACTUAL faq,it gives you details about all weapons.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.Black Jack

A.What is it?

It is a standard club.This is your short range non-lethal weapon.

B.Whats its Use?

It is used to knock out unsuspecting enemies,the unconsious enemies will not
bother you for the rest of that level.It can also be used in normal combat.

C.How is it used?

In order to use the black jack for a stealth take down sneak up on an unsusp-
ecting enemy with this weapon selected and get close to him until garrett
raises his arm.Now press the attack button to preform a stealth take down.
In normal combat,just keep pressing the attack button in the direction of the
enemy.

D.Drawbacks

In order to use the black jack for a stealth take down,the enemy must not be
aware of your prescence in any way i-e they must not be searching for you with
their weapons drawn.Secondly,although this weapon can also be used in normal
combat,i strictly recommend against it as it causes VERY less damage.

E.Where is It Found?

It is with you all the time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.Dagger

A.What is It?

Dagger is your short range lethal weapon.

B.Whats Its use?

It is used to stealthly take out the enemies,in a more bloody fashion.It can
also be used for close range open combat as it does a decent amount of damage
to most enemies.

C.How is it used?

In order to use the dagger for a stealth take down sneak up on an unsuspecting
enemy with this weapon selected and get close to him until garrett raises his
arm.Now press the attack button to preform a stealth take down.In normal combat,
just keep pressing the attack button in the direction of the enemy.

D.Drawbacks

In order to use the dagger for a stealth take down,the enemy must not be aware
of your prescence in any way i-e they must not be searching for you with their
weapons drawn.Secondly,the dagger leaves bloody spots on floor when ever it is
used,whether for a stealth take down or normal combat.These bloody spots,if not
cleaned up using a water arrow,will cause you trouble if a guard or a normal
person happens to notice them.I only recommend the dagger for normal combat.

E.Where is it Found?

It is with you all the time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.Broadhead Arrow

Maximum Capacity: 30 Arrows

A.What is it?

It is your long range lethal arrow.This is sort of the sniper rifle of that
era.

B.Whats Its Use?

The broadhead arrow is used to take out your enemies from a distance without
them knowing.It can also be used to divert the enemies attention by releasing
it very near to the enemy to create a minor noise.

C.How is it used?

In order to use the broadhead arrow for a stealth take down,the enemy must not
be aware of your prescence in any way i-e they must not be searching for you
with their weapons drawn.Press the attack button to prepare your arrow and use
the sight on the bow to aim for the enemy's chest or head.You can use the zoom
function for more accuracy.Release the arrow by letting go of the attack button
and if the arrow hit the enemy on the head or chest,it will immediately die.
If you want to divert the enemy's attention then target an area close to the
enemy and release the arrow.
This arrow can be retrieved if it ends up in some sort of woodwork.

D.Drawbacks

If the arrow hits any other region except the head or chest,then the enemy will
become aware of your prescence and will charge at you.It will also alert nearby
enemies.The stealth take down results in a bloody spot,which if not cleaned,
will land you into trouble.

E.Where is it found?

You have to buy these from shops.Other then that,they are found in very
specific locations.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.Fire Arrow

Maximum Capacity: 15 Arrows

A.What is it?

It is your long range EXTREMELY lethal arrow.This is like the rocket launcher
of the that era.

B.Whats Its Use?

You will generally be using this weapon to take out your STRONGER foes,from a
distance.There is no point of a stealth take down as this weapon creates a
bright light when nocked plus a very loud sound when released.You will use it
to take out the inhumanly creatures and the undead most of the time.It can also
be used to lighten up unlit torches or candles.

C.How is it used?

Very simple,just aim for the enemy and let go.This arrow will take out even the
most toughest of enemies in a couple of hits.To light up a torch or candle,aim
roughly at it and let go.

D.Drawbacks

You are at a big risk of exposing yourself when using this arrow as it creates
a bright light when it is nocked,plus it causes a very loud sound when it is
released.Not to mention the sound it produces when it hits an object.

E.Where is it found?

You can generally find the orangish-yellowish fire crystal near small fires,
hot coal and other HOT places.Also available in shops.

guish torches and candles etc.

Just aim for the specified person and let go.It is better if you aim for the
head region.If you want to extinguish flames,then aim for the flame and let go.

D.Drawbacks

You can only carry five arrows.Plus the gas range is NOT very big so you have
to aim accurately.

cap guards.

couple of seconds.If you want to temporarily handicap an enemy,then aim for
the FACE and not anything else.

sorts of noises which will immediately grab the enemy's attention and will go
towards the general area to investigate the sound,giving you time to sneak by.
You can pick up the used noise-maker arrow again,most of the time.

D.Drawbacks

The enemy is suspicious after investigating the sound.If you accidently fire
the arrow near yourself,you will be in big trouble.

rarily blind it.It will give you time to escape.Most of time you will be using
it to take out undead as it is VERY effective against them and takes out most
undead in 2-4 bombs.
