INTRODUCTION

The BEAST is coming. A being of pure power and destruction is annihilating the East Coast. To stop this menace, Cole must find the key to unlocking his undiscovered powers hidden deep within New Marais. Standing in the way is a power-hungry dictator that will stop at nothing to rid him from the city. Gain enough power to defeat The Beast or witness the destruction of the world. Save the world or destroy it. There are several key characters in inFAMOUS 2.

Cole MacGrath- From bike messenger to superhero in a day, when Cole got his powers thousands died. He’s been trying to do right by humanity ever since…if it just wasn’t so damn hard.

Joseph Bertrand III- This arrogant scion of New Marais’ most prominent family now rules the town with an iron fist. His ruthless personal militia crushes all opponents and controls every facet of the city. He is dedicated of ridding the city of Cole and any other super-powered being he deems as “unpure”.

Kuo- A patriotic NSA agent who is determined to defeat the Beast and save the city of New Marais by helping Cole achieve his super-powered potential. Little does she know, a similar potential exists within her as well.

Nix- A super-powered native of New Marais who has sworn revenge against Bertrand. Cole will soon learn that you either join Nix, or get out of her way. With her fiery ability to control oil, she is willing to do anything and everything to see Bertrand burn, by any means necessary.

Dr. Sebastian Wolfe- A brilliant scientist who worked with the First Sons on the original Ray Sphere. Wolfe is overcome with guilt at the harm the Ray Sphere has caused and now works tirelessly to make amends. It's these efforts that lead Cole to new and more powerful abilities.

Zeke Dunbar- Always the clown, Zeke grew tired of playing second banana to Cole and his new-found hero persona. So he tried to steal his powers – and he’s been trying to regain Cole’s trust ever since.

ROADMAP

First and foremost make 2 manual saves (1 for Good & 1 for Evil) in case you need to go back and complete a trophy

STEP 1: Chose a Path (Good or Evil)
Stick with the path until you have completed the game while playing it on either easy or medium. Playing on medium is recommend because it will groom you towards you next playthrough on hard. Make sure if you decide to take the Evil path you only choose the red options and if you decide the Good path only to choose the blue options when given.

This playthrough should be all about learning the moves and getting enjoying the story. You should be able to get majority of the trophies on this playthrough. Also while in this playthrough I would advise not getting any of the blast shards that are located on the buildings (doing so will make finding the ones you need a little harder). There are other ways of getting them, which is by purchasing the Blast Shard Sense which will point you towards closest blast shard.

Be sure to play the all the side mission that are related to your Karma path, Good are blue & Evil are Red. Completing all the side mission will result in 2 trophies, Land Lord & It's My Town Now and it will also help you purchase Powers/Upgrades. Furthermore, there are 2 other trophies that are side mission related: The Cleaner (Evil side) & Frozen Assets (Good side). Be sure to complete one of them on this playthrough. For example if you are going for your Good side playthrough, complete all side missions related to Frozen Assets and vice versa.

STEP 2: Chose Opposite Path on Hard difficulty
Start this playthrough on opposite Karma side of Step 1 and change the difficulty to Hard. Make sure that you do not lower the difficulty at any time during gameplay until you have finished the game because changing it will prevent you from achieving Pain Builds Character trophy. Right after the opening scene where you see Zeke walking up to Cole, press and go to options to change the difficulty to Hard, which will ensure that you get the trophy in the end.

Make sure to collect as many blast shards as possible because it will help you on your Hard playthrough. The reason for collecting them will be to increase your energy storage, therefore you will be able to shoot more grenades, rockets, bolts. Also collecting Dead drops will also help you gain XP needed for powers/upgrades.

On this playthrough you should complete all the neutral side missions (not karma related, just yellow icon) because they help you build your XP quicker, buy the upgrades a lot faster, and completing the one of these 2 trophies that are side mission related (choose the opposite of your first playthrough). The 2 trophies are The Cleaner (Evil side) & Frozen Assets (Good side). The Power/Upgrades you should buy are:

• Magnum Bolt (Hero) or Skull Bolt (Infamous)
• Alpha Blast
• Sticky Grenade (Hero) or Napalm Grenade (Infamous)
• Alpha Rocket
• Lightning Tether (automatic)
• Ionic Vortex or Ionic Freeze (Hero)
• Buy every AMP skill because the tough enemies are most easily killed with melee.
• Every upgrade is good

After you have beaten the game on hard turn the difficulty to easy or medium and begin your clean up. At the end of the second playthrough you will receive 15,000 XP, which will help you with the With Great Power Comes Greater Power trophy. Also once you have finished the game the second time you will be able to purchase all powers/upgrades regardless of your Karma level. Meaning that if you are on inFamous Karma level you can purchase Hero Karma powers/upgrades.

STEP 3: Clean-Up/Online(non-multiplayer)
Go back to the second game play save that you started on Hard and change it to Easy, you will gain more XP that way. Complete all the UGC related trophies and any that you may have missed in your first 2 playthroughs.

NOTES

You will be able to start going towards a side (Good or Evil) once you have reached the bridge (from the swamp) that you must lower by charging (to green) or overloading (to the red) the generator across the river. After you have lowered the bridge and go across it there will be a cut-scene and after that you will get 100 XP for it and on top left corner of the screen there will your KARMA meter (Good or Evil). It will be a half circle; the Blue represents Good and the Red represents Evil. Your actions throughout the game will push you towards Good or Evil. Whenever you receive Good Karma you Karma meter on the top left corner will highlight in blue and if you have completed a Side Mission or Crime in Progress it will give you a Blue banner on the top of the screen notifying you of your Karma received and vice versa for Evil Karma (Red banner and red highlight). Below are the actions that can change your Karma (Good or Evil).

Good Karma Opportunity:

• First place is when you are lowering the bridge from the swamp side, charge it all the way to the Green bars only (not red because it equals Evil karma)
• Crimes in progress- medical emergency, kidnapping, mugging, diffusing bombs, assisting cops.
• Side Missions/Quests- will be a Yellow circle and Blue on the inside, complete the quest
• Arc Restrain- enemies on the the ground (gives you live capture)
• Good Karma can be achieved only through Blue Icon missions. Harder to achieve Hero rank than inFAMOUS
• When performing a stunt that is a good karma the name of the stunt and XP value will be in the color blue

Evil Karma Opportunity:

• First place is when you are lowering the bridge from the swamp side, overload the generator all the way to the Red bars and destroy the village in the process
• Bystanders- injuring civilians
• Bio Leach everybody
• Side Missions/Quests- will be a Yellow circle and Red on the inside, complete the quest
• Crimes in progress- silence Street performers, Blast shard carriers, Protesters.
• Basically you can get Evil Karma out of every mission except the Blue Side Quests are yellow on the outside and blue on the inside
• When performing a evil stunt it will show the name and XP value in red.

Another is to complete short and easy UGC created missions and all side missions. Also end of your 2nd playthrough you will receive 15,000 XP.

There is also an infinite XP glitch but to beneficial you must first unlock the powers/upgrades by performing the stunts required. There is only 1 limiting factor to this glitch is that you can only purchase powers/upgrades that are equal or less than the XP that you have available. For example if you have 2000 XP and do the glitch you can only purchase powers that require 2000 XP or less, anything above that you cannot purchase. Here are step by step instructions:

You don't need to harm anyone and you can use John as a shield if you are taking damage. After a while Nix will come and use the RFI against The Beast dealing damage to him. You will need to go up to her and fight her until see runs away. Hitting her once or twice with your AMP will get her to move to another location. You will then have to move and get to the location she is at and repeat the process until see stops and not use the RFI any more. She uses the RFI against you to cause you damage. Make sure to hide until she stops and then attack her. She will jump from roof top to roof top until you take down 50% of her health. After taking down her health you will need to get back to john and hover with him until he reaches the cathedral. You do not have to attack anyone if you don't want to and you can use John as a Shield if you are being attacked. Soon Kuo will give you a call and tell you the power is back up, but Cole is worried about Zeke and wants to know what Kuo did with him. Shortly after Nix will be back and taking aim at John again you will need to fight her again. She has a full bar of health this time around as well and you will need to take her health down to get her to leave again. She will travel from roof to roof with every little bit of damage you do to her. This time around she uses two different attacks, The RFI and her Ink Grenades. After you cause 85-90 percent of damage to her health she will then run away again and you will need to go to John again to move forward to the cathedral. After reaching the Cathedral you will need to fight Nix for the third time. This time you will take down her health the whole way, after reaching that point, you will need to Press to finish her off. This is where Zeke comes into play and you will need to press each time he picks his arm up and points the weapon at you. Doing this three times will end up killing Zeke (You will need to kill Zeke). After all that, the Beast (John) will come to you and tell you that he is tired (really Tired of killing) of killing and you will have to become the Beast There have been reports that skipping the credits will not unlock the trophy

This is story related and will happen regardless of your morality. You will earn this trophy during the later half of the second island. You will need to battle Bertrand and win. The trophy should pop after the cutscene.

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

After talking to Bertrand on the Helipad, he will change into that big monster. You will have to jump on the back of Zeke's Pick up truck and Keep Bertrand from getting close and destroying the truck. Round One (1) Truck: Here is what to do when on the pick up truck and need to keep him from getting close. When he opens his mouth and you see the Purple glowing object in his mouth, use the lightening bolts (+) to hit him and slow him down. When he starts to shoot the green stuff that directly at you, they are smaller than the green stuff that makes an arch (goes up and then down right away). Use the + to send them back. Round Two (2) Foot: After a while he will be caught in between some lights and that is where you get off the truck and battle the Bertand (the monster). Make sure to take out the little swamp monsters first. These are his hit points: Both Arms (Purple lights that come out when he leans over) You will need to shoot with + since that is the only way to shoot from a distance. Try to be on high ground when attacking that way you can't get hurt by the little monsters. Once you take down half his half a cutscene starts. Round Three (3) Helicopter: You are now on the helicopter hanging with one hand. This is no different than when you was on the truck. Use the + to send back the green stuff, to gain energy/health. Every once and a while shoot a few at him to keep his attention. After a while of shooting and reflecting, he will get stuck and a missile will be shot at Betrand (the monster), but gets stuck on his shell/body. Shoot a bolt or 2 at tit and blow that missile up. He will be coming at you a little faster, continue to do what you did in the beginning, reflect. Another missile will get stuck and shoot that one too. Round four (4) back on foot: You will drop from the helicopter and Bertrand will be stuck again. There will be a lot of monsters and alot of action going on, so make sure to heal when you can. These are his hits points: Both Arms (Purple lights that come out when he leans over) You will need to shoot with + since that is the only way to shoot from a distance. Try to be on high ground when attacking that way you can't get hurt by the little monsters. Once you take down half his half a cutscene starts. The Chest (Purple lights that come out when he leans over) There are two orbs, so hit both until they burst.

Pain Builds Character Glitched
Finish the game on hard difficulty

Right after the opening scene where you see Zeke walking up to Cole, press and go to options to change the difficulty to hard. Ensuring that you get the trophy in the end.

Keep in mind that playing on a hard difficulty will give you less XP when you defeat enemies and enemies take more hits to die.This should be your second playthrough of the game. By this time you will be familiar with the game, controls and missions. The powers/upgrades you should think about buying when going for this trophy are:

• Bolt Stream (Hero) or Skull Bolt (Infamous)
• Alpha Blast (automatic)
• Sticky Grenade (Hero) or Napalm Grenade (Infamous)
• Alpha Rocket (automatic)
• Lightning Tether (automatic)
• Ionic Vortex or Ionic Freeze (Hero)
• Buy every AMP skill asap as they’re all good.
• Every upgrade is good, but Precision Enhanced due to the high power consumption.

Enemies take longer to go down make the battle a little longer than when first start you first playthrough. Throw grenades and make a run for it when you need to heal, finding a electric source to drain energy will be best in most fights. There are 40 story missions in this game and most being short, just heal when you need to and don’t fight monsters that are not relevant to the mission. Will list all enemies and tips how to defeat them:

Militia:

• Militia- if close by just melee, if far away for a single enemy you can use bolts, head shot kills faster though; for a group use grenades or rockets; for a enormous group use ionic vortex
• Militia (rocket launcher)- same as above
• Mini-Gun militia- very tough if close by and usually travel in packs of 2, use bolts if far away, try to make a head shot because they dont really move, grenades and rockets work as well, if its only 1 of them melee works great too

Corrupted:

• Spiker (swamp Bug)- these are nasty little bugs that shoot damaging slime, a simple melee hit will do the trick or a single bolt shot
• Swamp Monster- melee works best on these guys but bolts, grenades and rockets work as well.
• Gasbags (swamp monster with exploding head)- do not melee because they blow up, use bolt shots in the head to kill from a distance
• Ravenger (hive lord)- just grenades or rockets, ionic vortex does not work at all.
• Devourer (corrupted titan)- this enemy has a impenetrable skin so no matter how much you shoot it will have no effect. Every so often he will open his mouth to shoot green lime-looking bombs and/or shoot his tongue. When mouth is open (purple spot) shoot bolts if far away but if close grenade and rockets work very well. Ionic vortex does not work on these enemies.
• Behemoth (Bertrand)- same as above (purple spots), but you want to stay as far away as possible, bolts are you primary weapon and rockets are your second option, no melee option. Use blast to repel his slime rockets.

Vermaak 88 (ice soldiers)

• Quick note: they have ice shields, ice launch and ice towers. Ice shields protect them but if you fire enough bolts, grenades and rockets they break or you can simply aim for their heads and get head shock. Ice launch is used by them to escape from an area. Ice towers are used by the bigger soldiers to get a better position on the target but the towers do break by melee, bolts, grenades and rockets.
• Ice soldier- these are tougher than the militia, you can use a variety of weapons on these guys but if close melee works great, beware if too many close by they gang up on you.
• Ice soldier (shotgun)- these are very tough, a single shotgun shot can take half your life. Try to kill them from a distance but do use melee if close by as long as not too many.
• Crushers (snow tower builder)- bolts from a distance work great, grenades and rockets do fine as well, although you can use melee i would try to stay away from that.
• Ice Titan- although its a titan its much easier than it sounds, keep shooting grenades and rockets only (no bolts or ionic vortex), and once you lower its life it will highlight in blue, go next to it and press repeatedly to show a weak spot, then again grenades and rockets

Shardcore
Pick up 50% of the blast shards scattered around New Marais

You will need to collect 153 Blast Shards for this trophy to pop. Using the Blast shard sense upgrade (2500 XP + 60 side missions completed) will help you find them a lot easier and quicker. See Just One More for more info.


Just One More
Pick up all the blast shards scattered around New Marais

There are 305 Blast shards in the game scattered throughout both islands. If you want to know how many you have collected, look at your game save data from the XMB menu before/after playing the game or during gameplay you can select Save Data or Load Data and it will show you your save data. The #18 blast shard on 1st island can only be collected with the improved static thrusters.

Energy Storage number increases as you collect blast shards. You should really purchase the Blast Shard Sense (2500 XP & 60 side missions). The way that the Blast Shard Sense works is for example if you are missing 10 blast shards this upgrade will only show you 1 blast shard at a time, the closest one to you. Also in the powers menu when you go under Upgrades it will tell you how many you have completed. The side missions are the ones that take over a territory. The Blast Shard Sense will point you to where the closest shard is and will save you time in the long run. You can tap or press to have them show up on the mini map. Once you reach 280 blast shards after that it will tell you every time when you collect a blast shard 281/305, 282/305, 283/305, and so on.

You can unlock this trophy while going for the With Great Power Comes Greater Power trophy. Click Me for stunt list.


With Great Power Comes Greater Power
Unlock and purchase all powers

You will need to purchase all upgrades for a single Karma (Good or Evil) + the Neutral upgrades to get this trophy. The earliest that this trophy can be achieved is in the Final Piece mission (last blast core). There all a total of 38 power/upgrades that you will need to purchase in order to obtain this trophy.

Click Me for XP list and recommendations. These are the upgrades/powers you need to purchase.

UGC missions XP: if you are to start a mission with a lot of enemies and kill them all you will get a lot of stunt XP (a few hundred depending on mission). Simply leave the mission before its completed or die. The reason for that is because if you complete the UGC mission you will only get the XP for completion and none of the stunt XP will count. Tip thanks to ReverendSID.

There is also an infinite XP glitch but to beneficial you must first unlock the powers/upgrades by performing the stunts required. There is only 1 limiting factor to this glitch is that you can only purchase powers/upgrades that are equal or less than the XP that you have available. For example if you have 2000 XP and do the glitch you can only purchase powers that require 2000 XP or less, anything above that you cannot purchase. Here are step by step instructions:

• go to Create Empty Mission
• press and select Play Current Mission
• after mission starts press go to Powers
• buy every power/upgrade that you have unlocked and you will see that it will not be deducted from you total XP earned under Available XP
