"No Gods or Kings" revisited

[manasecret]

My only complaint so far is that, while early in the game I experienced true fear in entering new areas and fighting certain foes, now that I have a nuke's worth of firepower in my pocket there's not much fear any more.

And Big Daddies were a cinch by the third one I faced. Just lay a bunch of proximity mines in a row, leading to a big column that you can play ring around the rosey with, and then grenade him to get him mad, run away leading him through all the proximity mines, then finish him off with a couple more grenades while using the big column as cover.

The only time I'm scared of Big Daddies is when they're close to other enemies and it's hard to kill the splicers without a stray bullet hitting the Big Daddy and getting his panties all in a wad. Which also makes the Big Daddy hypnotizing splice virtually worthless IMO.
