Overcomeing Ulden
Use the following trick to defeat Ulden without taking damage (when the bridge is gone). Go to the back left-hand side, and hang from the ledge. You can defeat him without taking damage.
-
Easy 'AC/DC' trophy
Before you re-establish a circuit at a substation, press L2 to absorb electricity from it. Since it does not run out, you will eventually unlock the 'AC/DC' trophy. To do this easier, while L2 is held, keep pushed PlayStation Logo, and turn off the controller. Cole will continue draining electricity while the controller is off. After a while stop draining power, and the trophy should become unlocked.
-
Easy experience points
Find a Dustmen Conduit in The Warren. They frequently spawn three small scorpion-like creatures that are easily killed. Find a safe location (for example, the top of a roof) where the Conduit cannot shoot you with his rocket launcher and the spawned creatures cannot reach you. Keep attacking the spawned creatures for easy experience.
Use the following trick if you are finding it difficult to unlock all of your powers from missions only. After you have built up your character enough to be somewhat dominant (see recommended skill set below), go into an area where you have not restored electricity to yet. Once there, you can grab the attention of multiple enemies by zapping them. Get the attention of as many enemies as possible, and they will all chase after you. Lure them into an alleyway that is narrow, then kill them. Use any powers that you have unlocked up to this point to ensure your survival. You may find other battle tactics to be more useful which you can develop and use for yourself, but the battle tactic that is listed here is recommended.
Notice: Once you lure a large group of enemies into an alleyway, throw lightning grenades/bombs at them and use lightning strikes to burn them. Throw the grenades/bombs at enemies that are bunched up together in order to get multiple kills at the same time. The more enemies that you kill at the same time, the more experience you will get. Once all enemies are dead, if there are any wounded enemies that are still alive but are struggling on the ground, use the Life Leech skill (R1 + Square) to suck the neural electricity out of them. This will restore all of your electricity/energy power so that you can repeat the same tactic. Be careful; when using this strategy watch out for turrets mounted on trucks. They are usually located at intersections and up on the railways. A good way of destroying them is to zap the front of the truck, where the engine is located. The entire truck will explode, and it will usually take out the turret as well. It is recommended for you to be pursuing an evil karma state, as the Life Leech will give you bad karma. It is recommended you build up these skills as much as possible before trying this tactic.
| Lightning Push to deflect rockets or push enemies away from being too close (not required but recommended) | |
| |
| Lightning Strike | |
| Lightning Grenades/Bombs | |
| Life Leech | |
| |
| Sniper (can be useful if you would rather just snipe the enemy behind the turret) | |
Notice: Try upgrading all of the skills that reduce damage taken by Cole. Also, upgrade the increased electricity absorption rate skill.

Easy Good or Evil advancement
Find the sick citizens on the ground. Heal them to increase your Karma by three points or drain them to decrease it by three points.
-
Easy energy
Use your lightning bolt (which does not cost energy) to charge light post, battery, or another object that can be drained of energy. Drain it after it is charged. If the object does not explode, your entire energy meter will be refilled. -From: Joseph Best
Shock a pedestrian, then walk up to them. Lock on, then repeatedly press Square to restore your power.
After killing a person, shock their body with your basic lightning bolts that require no energy. Push L2 while they are sparking to absorb the energy and recharge.
-
Car catapult
Stand on the end of a trunk of a car. It must be a long trunk. Use the thunder attack. It will blow the car up and send you flying high up.

Easy 'Good...' and 'Evil...' trophies
Play through a mission, and finish it using actions to unlock either a 'Good...' or 'Evil...' trophy. Immediately after the mission success message appears, pause the game, and choose to abandon the mission. Although you have to repeat that mission, the trophy that you earned will still be recorded. When the mission is replayed, use the opposite actions done in your first attempt to unlock the other trophy. By doing this, you will not have to repeat the entire game twice as good and evil.
