Starting off in Central Park since the first save point there is the easiest and quickest to access right now.
As for why I don't do that at the NYPD? As it turns out, returning there after going to the Museum reveals that Aya & friends missed out on a party...or Eve decided to raid the place. Daniel decides to go search for his son in the building while Aya gets a Hamaya from Maeda.
To trigger the next major cutscene, you need to visit three places in the NYPD. Those places are Baker's office, weapons storage where Wayne & Torres are, and the dog kennels.
If you see some random timeskips here & there, it's because I'm running back to Central Park to save and refill my PE meter on the enemies after every fight.
Guarding the way towards Baker's office is a pair of crows & a rat, enemies you're used to by now, but they're much stronger. Rats here will turn to shoot Aya with their fireballs right before launching them now, lovely.
At the office, you can talk to Warner to find out Eve picked the best time to raid the NYPD. Head in to Baker's office next and talk to the dying cop on the floor. He mentions that Baker ran off to find Ben, then dies.
Before going downstairs to the dog kennels, save your game.
At the dog kennel room, talk to Cathy on the floor to find out that Sheeva went berserk and Ben ran after her. Looks like he needs to be found very soon.
The problem? I have to do a timeskip because OH GOD the fight to get into weapons storage. Two crows? That wouldn't be so bad, but a new enemy pops up, a bipedal dogman...and he brought his brother too. They've got a standard melee attack that can be a bit annoying to dodge.
The utterly BS attack? They can release an energy wave that is nigh unavoidable, hits really hard, and inflicts the def down status. If both dogmen do this? Death!
After the nail biting finish, inside is Wayne & Torres, the latter who dies from wounds inflicted by a monster.
Wayne takes over everything Torres was taking care of regarding gun slot expansions. While you can still use Mod Permits, he also takes Trading Cards. He also hands over Torres' old gun, but it pales compared to the G19.
At this point, you should see a scene with Ben chasing down Sheeva, meaning you can now go to the upper floors of the NYPD. The stairs up are right next to the conference room. That room has something in it, but I'm beelining it up the stairs first.
After moving south, then west, you should see a second scene of Ben chasing Sheeva. Right after this ends, enter the door to your north. There's a fight with two more dogmen, then two items to collect, a Medicine 3 & Storage Key. This key unlocks the room next to the dog kennels which has a Tool, Offense +1 or 2, and the real prize, the MP5K machine gun.
Next, the conference room I skipped over. There's a new enemy inside, the spider. It typically opens by firing a web aimed at where Aya was the moment it begins the animation for the attack. This can inflict slow. It then tends to bum rush Aya to bite her right after.
The chest in the room has a Cm Vest 2 after you're done with the fight.
On the 2nd floor, the jail (first door to the east after climbing the stairs) has two spiders & a rat to kill, then a PE +1 or 2 and Tool in the chests. West past the dogmen room leads to an office with a Medicine 3, CR Evade +1 or +2, and save point.
Going up to the 3rd floor triggers another scene. Ben's trying to figure out what's wrong with Sheeva, but suddenly Baker runs in, scoops up Ben, and gets in the corner primed and ready to shoot the dog. He knows what's coming next as Sheeva mutates into a three headed beast. The boss theme starts playing after this.
Of course, I have to burn through another Revive cause screw the first fight on the 3rd floor.
After that lovely moment, talk to the dying cop to get a key for his locker down in the locker room. Has a Trading Card in there (and a Medicine 3 in another locker too).
Before you go do that, the room to the north has a mambo size dogman, the one that killed Torres. Still has a very painful physical strike and the unavoidable wave, but the wave just halves Aya's current hp. If you have a Barrier up when it goes off? You take NO damage to your PE meter.
After the fight, the enemy drops a SG550 rifle and you can head through a door in the back to pickup a N Jacket.
In the previous hallway, there's one more lol I have to burn a Revive fight, then another room to the northeast that gives several healing items for a quick battle.
From that last lol Revive battle, going north leads to a room with a bit of an odd angle. This is your last chance to prepare and go back to save because the boss is in the next room.
More next time!
