Those things are very dangerous, they'll wake up from stasis and instakill you if you get too close. I did manage to kill a guardian with the forcegun's grenade fire (i don't remember if i had it statis'd or not). I beat the game on medium and have a CLEARED SAVE waiting for a round 2!

My attempts at that mostly just got me killed while trying to convince kinesis to pick up what i wanted to pick up.

Kinesis would pick up random little body parts instead of that big bomb part i was pointing at. I tried to do that with amputated exploder bombs. I do very little throwing of objects at enemies with kinesis. Should a well placed/timed forcegun secondary fire shot kill it, when it's all opened up with tentacles out? Can that do it in one shot? I think an explosion in their gut at the right time can kill them, but I haven't managed to do that yet.

I dont deal with gaurdians very well yet, I burn thru lots of ammo on them. I think the forcegun is my favorite for most types of enemies (a crazed twitcher running at you, done in two pulls of the trigger), pulserifle for the exploders (hit their bombs from a distance), linegun for brutes and lurkers (hope the tentacles are pointed up), plasmacutter for pregnants and pods (surgical cutting shots). Now that I have the final suite, I'm buying powernodes (before i just used the ones i found), so i should be able to upgrade faster. I also haven't upgraded my rigs hp or air time because when it comes time to spend one of the rare powernodes, I really want to put it into something that will increase damage output. I haven't upgraded the flamethrower, ripper, contactbeam, or kinesis. So far I've put most upgrades into the weapons that I carry and use, plus some into stasis. I'm on chapter 10 now and have a level 5 suite at last, just a couple more chapters to go. The line gun's primary fire is powerful too, divides those skinny Dividers very easily :)
