Dead Space 2 Walkthrough - Chapter 12
13Full Walkthrough: http://www.gamefront.com/dead-space-2-walkthrough/
Enter the next big area and you'll find Ellie, working on getting a big mining rig restarted. You'll need a power cell and a circuit board to get it running again. Go around the back of the rig to your right to find the power cell inside a panel, which has a bunch of cysts in front of it.
POWER NODE: Move between the wall and the drilling rig on the side closest to the cysts and you'll find a gap in the wall that hides loot and a Power Node.
Plug in the power cell and you'll need a circuit board next. Go back to the other side of the rig and climb the ramp. Be sure to check to the left at the top of it for a Diamond Semiconductor.
Keep moving along the ramps, collecting your loot as you go. You'll eventually get to a gondola that will take you across to the far side, but when you get there, you'll have to fight two slashers. Get the circuit board out of the nearby panel.
Your return trip to the rig has you facing a puker when the gondola crosses back. Head down afterward and plug in the circuit board. Next you'll have to hack another panel, and doing so triggers a big attack. Watch for slashers coming from the right.
The Pack is also falling in all around you. Make your way up the ramp as you fight through them — they'll be coming above and below. Find a good spot where you can address all threats, including additional slashers (I liked the top of the ramp), and when you're finished fighting, head down to the side of the rig after Ellie turns it and ride the lift to the top.
On top of the drill, you'll be fighting off necromorphs pretty much constantly. Slashers will make their way up to the top of the drill along with a few pukers, and lurkers will stand on the walls and shoot down on you. Watch those walls near the lurkers for spare loot and explosive canisters for your convenience.
TIP: If you have the Force Gun or you're just able to put a few shots into enemies chests, you can push them into the drill bits, which will instantly kill them.
There's not much to say here except to encourage you to keep hacking away and to keep your eyes open. The slashers that climb up aren't generally the super-dangerous kind, so as long as you address them quickly, you should do all right. The more problematic enemies are the pukers, as they take more work to destroy, and the lurkers, which you'll probably struggle to kill at all.
After the second wall of lurkers, you're nearing the end. Hold out for a few more seconds and you'll reach the end of this chapter.
ACHIEVEMENT: The "Knock Knock" Achievement unlocks just before you hit Chapter 13.
