Tips
  • If you have the Necronomicon Edition or DLC, you receive a Submachine Gun and .45 ACP rounds. This gun consumes ammo quickly; save the initial clip.
  • Consider putting a free Skill Point (if applicable via DLC) into the Absolute Clarity Mind skill for a 5% XP bonus.
  • Lootable objects can be searched repeatedly after resetting the area.
  • The diving helmet in the lifeboat drains sanity; do not hold it for too long.
  • Collecting all evidence on the 'Charon' ship grants an additional 140 XP.
  • Completing the optional Titania Lifeboat investigation grants an additional 140 XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
