Out of the Shadows: Tips

  • Bring long-range weapons like a rifle or energy launcher to counter aerial enemies.
  • Avoid open fields; find natural cover like rocks or wrecks to dodge missile fire.
  • Look for nearby crates after the fight for extra drops or components.
  • If the fight feels overwhelming, retreat and re-engage strategically after healing.
