In Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival, you will come across all types of horrific beings that want to tear the flesh from your bones. While most of these can be dispatched with a few gunshots, some are a little trickier to deal with. One of these is the Sister of Mercy, a late-game boss who is effectively immune to all your attacks and can instantly kill you if she is alerted to your presence. This can make her section a little frustrating, as one mistake ends with you restarting the entire encounter. If you're struggling to beat her, here is how to successfully sneak past the Sister of Mercy and recover the Genesis Configuration. As mentioned in the intro, the Sister of Mercy is completely immune to your attacks, and shooting her will only alert this monster to your presence. Instead, you will need to work your way through the large room until you can reach the Genesis Configuration. If you're ever spotted, the lights will all go red; she will fly to your position, grab you, and instantly kill you. To start, head left the moment you regain control of Aiden, grab the bottle off the counter, and hide behind the pillar. Throw the bottle in the opposite direction of where you're hiding to draw the Sister of Mercy away. When this happens, go to the cart and push it to clear a path. Hide behind the cart and wait until the sister is looking in a different direction. Now, slowly walk across the glass along the edge of the path to minimize the amount of noise you're making. Wait behind the pillar until the Sister of Mercy is looking away, then walk to the other end where the dead cultist in the chair is. Hide under the stairs, turn around, and face the back of the chair the cultist is in to find an Inventory Capacity Upgrade. There will also be a bottle here, so pick that up to use as a distraction as you make your way back to where you initially started when the Sister of Mercy threw you to the ground. Head around the right side of the room, making sure to hug the pillars while hiding under the tables embedded into them. Any time you see the spotlight shine in your direction, this means that the Sister of Mercy is going to look at that area. If you're not behind a pillar or something to block her vision of you, she will spot you. Progress until you reach another cart you'll need to push out of your way. Once again, grab a bottle on a table and throw it in the opposite direction to pull her attention off you. Move the cart and quickly hide behind the pillar until she passes by. Instead of continuing along this path, enter the room to your right since your initial route will be blocked off. Hide behind the painting until the Sister of Mercy is on the other side of the room. Carefully walk around the broken glass on the floor and enter the bathroom. This is a safe area she cannot go into, so catch your breath, and then exit out the other side. Move behind the bar, pick up the bottle, and toss it. When she becomes distracted, go up the stairs to your right and begin pushing the cart. This will knock over a bottle, causing her to become alerted to your presence. When this happens, throw caution to the wind and start sprinting along the path and then across the lighting fixtures to reach where the Genesis Configuration is. Do not stop; if she catches you, it will all be over, so move as quickly as possible until you reach the box. This will end this segment and unlock the "So Much For The Cat And Mouse Shtick" achievement.
