Enemy of the Family | 15 | Silver | Earn an A rank in all Protector Trials.The first thing to understand about this bonus is that you need not earn an A+ rank, but only an A. This means protecting the Little Sister well enough so that she can accumulate at least 85% of the ADAM from each Gather Corpse. The only way to do this is to minimize the times she’s distracted by a Splicer. Protect her well early on so her Gather multiplier grows to 4x and never let it fall below 3x. There is a short delay between her yelling for help and the multiplier dropping, so keep close by and act fast to interrupt the attacker whenever you hear her scream. You can earn an A rank as long as the multiplier only drops to 3x once or twice. |

Perfect Protector | 20 | Silver | Collect 100% of the ADAM in a single Protector Trial.The strategies discussed in this chapter will help you earn an A+ rank in any of the Trials, although some are certainly easier than others. If earning an A+ rank in any of the numbered trials proves too difficult, simply complete all of them, and then focus your efforts during the Bonus Trials that unlock. The Bonus Trials are much easier, as you can summon Elite Security Bots, lay down all manner of traps, and use Hypnotize 3 to befriend any enemy you encounter. |
|
Get a Bigger Bucket | 25 | Silver | Collect 50% of the ADAM available in all Protector Trials.This bonus unlocks through the normal course of play, especially if you’re averaging a B rank or higher. |
|
Guardian Angel | 10 | Silver | Completed all bonus Protector Trials.Complete all of the numbered Trials in the six locations to earn 36 Stars and unlock the Bonus Trials. The Bonus Trials grant you full access to all Plasmids, weapons, ammunition types, and tonics. Use the Gene Bank to splice up before initiating the Gather and have at it! Bonus Trials are far easier than the numbered Trials, so enjoy the feeling of being overpowered! |
