Fire off some rounds on Barrett to lure him into this area and once he starts coming over, sneak your way back to the second floor. You should be able to see the exact location of these turrets on your minimap in the next room over. Hack it and set the turrets to "enemies". In this new area, there is a security room with a computer inside. Barrett will make more stupid comments about how it won't save you and you can sneak into this new room while he's distracted elsewhere. I found that a really good way to soften him up is to sneak to the security computer on the 2nd floor left side of the room (there is a ventilation shaft connecting both halves of the second floor). You can unload clips upon clips on this guy and he'll just keep marching on and asking if you like pineapples. This should give you time to plan your next move.Īs others have mentioned, this guy is a freakin tank. As long as Barrett cannot see you directly, you're invulnerable. Note that the walls separating you from Barrett now can easily be shot through, but no grenades, gas cans, fire extinguishers, etc will pass through. Barrett probably will not see you, but if he does, crouching near the wall should make it impossible for him to hit you. If you're playing through for the first time and are looking for a how-to, my method requires the turret hacking upgrade and I recommend having an EMP grenade, though it's not necessary.Īs soon as the cutscene ends and Barrett starts attacking, throw a grenade (or anything that will stun him for a few seconds) and run like hell towards the back right side of the room (when facing away from the entrance). Like I said, it is a cheap trick and not fun to play, but if you are just sick of the level and want to get on with the game it works.īarrett slaughtered me every time until I figured out how to use the environment. Also, you might have to go aggro him again if he wanders away too far and can't find you then duck back into cover. Just make sure to stay close to your hidey hole so you can take cover when he comes after you. If you are impatient, you may want to wait until his alert level goes down and he wanders off looking for you to take a few headshots on him from behind when he is facing away to speed up the process. It takes a long time, but eventually he will kill himself. The grenades may hurt you a little, but won't do enough damage to kill you and you can regenerate the health fast enough to stay alive if you keep your head down. He will walk right up to the other side of the boxes and eventually throw grenades at you and cause damage to himself because he is too close. If you can get there without him being too close behind you, the AI doesn't seem to allow him to get into a position where he can shoot you. Go there and duck behind the crates (I think they have ammo on them) that are against the wall. There is a room behind him in the right corner from the perspective of where you are standing when the fight starts. I finally did this because I didn't do enough side quests before fighting him and didn't level up my character enough yet to be very effective against him and I was sick to death of fighting him over and over, especially given the annoyingly slow re-load time to try again. It is a cheap trick that takes advantage of a glitch in the game, and isn't very satisfying, but it works. After a dozen tries (along with the annoyingly long load time to restart) I found this tip on the Internet that did the trick. The barrel trick worked to a point, but I could never get the knockout punch. I had a hell of a time with this too, because I went into this fight severely under-armed.
