One of the best ways to get through Severed is to look for every Power node and use them to upgrade your rig, You will not really need to upgrade your gun as you all ready have a really strong Pulse Rifle. But everything that you have unlocked in your dead space 2 playthrough is not in Severed. As well as all of this you can still use any DLC that you have Suits and Guns. you can also find power nodes in some places(just like the actual game).Īlso when you start your Rig is already upgraded with 2 Hit Points and your Stasis Module is already upgraded(Duration 1, Energy 1). When you start the game you get an already Upgraded Pulse Rifle(Damage 2,Capacity 2,Reload 1, Alt fire 2) a new Seeker Rifle and you also get a Flamethrower at the first doorway and 50,000 Credits to spend in the shop. Make sure you upgrade your health as this is a very combat heavy DLC, and if you have the Supernova DLC pack use the Forged Suit and Plasma Cutter.Īlso if you have the EarthGov Pulse Rifle from the DLC Packs you can buy it for free, sell your normal Rifle for some extra cash and keep all the upgrade nodes in the new Rifle.Īs Andreka0 says you can not do this in new game+, But you don't really need it.

There are about 20 Nodes you can acquire (Buying and Finding) and ammo is more or less in plentiful supply. If you have the Hand Cannon from DS2 Hard Core you will only need that weapon for the whole DLC. You can also find in the beggining a flamethrower but I tended not to use it as it's comparably weaker than the pulse rifle and has worse range. I would suggest keeping this suit if you use the Pulse Rifle as it gives it a damage bonus. You'll also start with the Patrol Uniform which has 15 inventory and armour (No DLC pack can better it, but have different suit specialisations).

You'll start off with a slightly upgraded Pulse Rifle and a new Patrol Seeker Rifle. Both maps are true to their originals but have extra rooms and variations. There are only 2 chapters to this add on, one taking place in the mining facility from Chapter 11 of the main game, and the other chapter being from Chapter 1. A point to know is that New Game+ cannot be used in this add on so don't try saving up loads of ammo and health packs for this difficulty.
