Ok so this Depot A place is straight up garbage.

These acid spitting dogs are some of the most cheap and frustrating enemies I've seen in a turn based RPG in a long time. I'm in an area that I just cannot seem to avoid them, and there are 5. No matter what I do I'm getting just ripped apart.

Any tips? This place sucks.

Thanks for the replies.

I did start to notice a big jump in my ability to control fights at around level 4, so here's hoping to more improvement. I just hit level 6 and grabbed Premeditation earlier today.

Also, I meant DT not DR in that previous post, and should stipulate that this "walkthrough" of the first hour or two of the game is possibly only valid until Styg gets through nerfing full psi, whenever that happens 

Thanks for the response. I'm following your guide! I'm glad you responded. Too bad a nerf may be coming, not sure why you'd need one in a single player RPG...

I managed to make it past the GS5 area with the sentry bots. When you talk about the lurker with the tac vest, do you mean the guy that I killed that had the Antithermic Insulated Antirifle Overcoat? This was in the area on the left, just before taking the street towards the GS5 area for Gorsky. I went down into some tunnels with some gang members, some were stealthed.

I wasn't able to find this alumunized tac vest you talked about but this coat is pretty awesome, even though it drops my stealth 65%, it has 17% mechanical, 24% heat and 14% cold DT and I'm immune to burning. 200% DT against bullets and shotgun shells, so people with guns basically aren't hurting me right now, but melee attackers still waste me (not regular Rathounds anymore)

Builds / New, using a Psi Build. Having a hard time?

I'm using the Tranquility Psi build from this forum and I'm paying on Normal. New player and using Oddity.

What am I doing wrong? I am getting slaughtered by the Rathounds in the early cave areas. If I'm in Stealth mode I will walk around a corner and get instantly spotted and three or four of them will rush me and if I'm out of flares I'm basically dead meat, since I only have around 70 HP due to 6 Con and taking Psi Empathy.

I couldn't find any armor to wear prior to leaving the base so I had nothng essentially and was getting hit for 8 or 9, often critted for over 10 three times and just having a bad time.

I was using a Temporal Manipulation spell that adds a debuff that does damage after it runs out, the Psi Punch and Neural Overload or something like that, but I was running out of Psi often during a fight with more than one Rathound. Just a lot of frustration and reloading.

Am I missing something with Stealth? I realize that I only have 3 Agility but I am instantly spotted and the entire zone hones in on me and attacks me.
