Complete The Sinking City 2 A Hard Decision casebook entry by interacting with Joseph Reed. Learn about the Mystical ointment and Still Salty trophy.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Return to Joseph and interact with him.
  2. 2
    Choose dialogue options such as "I found the lab where Usha was reborn," "Tell me about Raymond," "Why did you torture Usha?", "Usha wants you dead," "I know she's trying to trick me," or "I found Usha's hideout."
  3. 3
    After the conversation, you will receive the "A hard decision" and "Mystical ointment" casebook entries for the Fleeing Phoenix investigation.

Warning: If you kill Joseph before speaking with him, you will still receive the "Mystical ointment" casebook entry. If you visit Usha without eliminating Joseph first, she will attack, and you will be forced to kill her.

Tips
  • For this playthrough, Charles Reed guns down Joseph.
  • The "Still Salty" achievement/trophy is missable.
