How to finish the Arena?
Arena Round 4 – Only Unlocks upon completing Quest Ad Astra Per Aspera, It’s a Chimera fight, upon entering the arena, go to the left, jump on the box onto the crate, Chimera can’t attack you from there, go single fire and just head shot the thing.
Arena Round 5 – Let them decide (you get the revolver), Use the 4 propane tanks in the middle to blow him up a little, then finish him off, the AK doesn’t do enough pen neither does the shotgun.
