Unlocking the Mimic psi ability just as that one area-gating Electric Phantom is sniffing around just next to a hiding spot I ran to, mimicking another Phantom's giblet on the ground, and slinking away to go replicate 9mm ammo to come back n dump into that spongey jerk. Elemental Phantoms + Mimics rushing me at low health as i duck around a corner where two turrets are mercifully waiting, and I try to use my (jamming) pistol to stun/distract phantoms before they can attack the turrets. ![]() Throwing down a cycler grenade as i'm cornered by mimics and then running and jumping behind a desk and it implodes them all. Mobility's slow the Typhon are too fast and phantoms in particular are too aggressive in too many ways, including their spawn behavior wrench reach is bad stamina bar's too tiny skill tree's too gated for too long, so for a while, you're either stuck with shallow stealth or shallow action Typhon are too PG TV sci fi to be scary and I often only dread them for their irritation. All my old bugbears are here and they're even more obvious now than they were years ago. And that I don't like how it executes on nearly any of them, at least for its first couple hours. Revisiting Prey has reminded me it has an abundance of verbs I like in a game.
