Story related, can't be missed
You will get this trophy after acquiring a new body at Omicron. But, before even going there you need to get it open. Outside Omicron there's a power station you can climb into. After flipping a few switches and pressing a few buttons to drain the water, climb up the next ladder.
In this room there will be a puzzle. You must get the power from the top left to the bottom right without going in the red but some of the fuses are broken.
Starting from the top left go: Right, Down, Left, Down, Down, Right, Right, Right
Once inside Omicron, go upstairs and to the dive room and plug your Omnitool in. After the event venture back out. You need to find 3 items: Structure Gel, Power Pack, and Cortex Chip.
STRUCTURE GEL
On the current floor, go to the central room with the map. Select "override" and you'll have another puzzle. You must connect all the green squares touching each square once and not crossing lines. The path of square is very linear and you can move diagonally so this should be easy.
In one of the newly opened rooms is the structure gel. Once you try to open the cabinet housing the structure gel the power chip will break. Take the chip and open the glass door to the right. There are three containers in front of you. Go to the middle one, unlock it, pull the drawer out, place the chip, close and lock it again then use the lever by the computer to move the laser until it's over your chip. Press the button to apply gel. Take the chip and put it where you found it. Now, open the cabinet and take the structure gel.
Cortex Chip
Go back to the lower level where you came in and interact with the map. Choose Lower Level and choose Override. In one of these rooms will be a robot and a computer with another puzzle. You must guide all the lasers from the left to the bottom. This is very easy. Press on the lasers to activate them and press on the circles to rotate them and guide the laser.
The very top one (starting at the top left) should go straight to the top right and then straight down. The second laser should reach the middle then go straight down, and the third laser should only touch the bottom left and go straight down.
Power Pack
On the very top floor is the power pack and it's guarded by an enemy. This enemy is slow and lurching but gets taller and faster as it gets closer to you. Unfortunately, it's standing RIGHT in front of what you need. My strategy was to throw something at it, getting it's attention. It'll then turn around and lurch towards you. Circle around the other way and grab the Power Pack while it's looking for you. Then retrace your steps and leave.
There's a good chance you might get hit here and that's ok but be warned that if you get hit, then the monster will reappear at the exit to this area.
Go back to the central floor. The monster will be down here in the room just before where you need to go and it will one hit kill you so sneak up to the door of the room it's in and close it, then get up and run like hell towards the dive room. Catherine will lock the door.
After putting the items in the suit, there's one more puzzle.
You must sync the wavelengths.
Here's the answer:
- Frequency = 1
- Offset = 5
- Amplitude = 7
After transferring to the new body, you'll get the trophy.
