Combat tips

[pnutz]

hide in bushes unless your opponent has a gun

if they have a gun, spam stand/rest and slide under everyone's bullets.  I had good heavy armour and once almost managed to get away from a bolivian army ending of 4 people with backpacks full of guns.

also abuse crates if you have to fight in a corridor or maintenance, you can flip them closed to block bullets while you reload

as for weapons, if you can get hold of a gem (uquill counts as one too) turn it into window sheets, then break the window for a shard.  Those are even more powerful than the plasmaglass shards of old
