Strong, fast, and extremely durable. Alway's a threat, and always a heavy drain on Salts and Ammo. If you've been playing video games for a long time you should be able to pretty much work out the Handyman's weak spot straight away.
Yep, it's the massive glowing heart on the creature's chest, so focus your attacks whenever possible on this weak spot. Remember your Handy foe has a multitude of ways to attack you; the primary being to close the distance and just punch you with a massive fist, doing high damage.
At range he will pick up and throw corpses of friends and foes at you and he has a powerful in-built electrical current that he can weaponize, gathering up electricity in a burst to hurl at you, or to slam into the ground making a immensely powerful area of effect attack.
The Handyman's electrical attack can be also utilised to electricify Sky Rails, meaning Booker must take to the ground or take heavy damage.
The Handyman will jump up, latch onto the rail, then send his current through it, eletrocuting the entire rail. Look on the bright side; this will take out any other enemies that happen to be riding it after you at the time! In combat you might think to use the Shock Jockey, but this has a negligible effect; his own current is just as strong as yours, it seems. The Devil's Kiss isn't much better.
Possession and Bucking Bronco are completely useless. One of the most effective Vigors that can be used against the Handymen is, strangely, Murder of Crows. YES NO. In This Wiki Guide.

Table of Contents. In the latter half of development, Irrational hired Epic Games' Rod Fergusson, who was known in-house as the "Closer" due to his intended purpose of getting Infinite out of the door.
Game developers would argue that most mainstream projects are difficult developments in one form or another. But where things get interesting with Infinite is in the repeated references by the designers to the amount of content cut from the game.
Levine himself stated to Ausgamers that two games' worth of content were removed from the final version, while art director Scott Sinclair upped the estimation to five or six while speaking to Play magazine. We even have a window into how Infinite changed over the course of the project. The demo from E3 shows us a sequence of events that were scattered right across the game in the final version, from Elizabeth opening a tear to a s Paris, to Songbird stalking outside a building while Elizabeth and Booker cower inside.
There's also an extended battle with the Vox Populi that takes place in an environment far larger than anything we witness in the final game. But I don't think we can dismiss Infinite's problems so simply. Half Life 2 was another shooter that dealt with big ideas, emphasised companionship with a sidekick, and was merciless with the editor's scissors during development.
So what did Half Life 2 get right that Infinite gets wrong? The answer lies in Infinite's storytelling, and its determination to upend the player's sympathies wherever they land. Half Life 2's revolution was led by lovable rogues, goofy scientists, and a security guard with a cat complex.
It invests us in its characters, and hence makes us care about the events that unfold. It may not be as high-minded as Infinite is, but it doesn't forget to lay the groundwork that gives the player reason to pay attention. In contrast, I cannot think of a single likeable character in Infinite. Both Comstock and Fitzroy are thoroughly detestable.
The Luteces' clipped and condescending dialogue quickly begins to grate. DeWitt might sport the rugged jawline of Indiana Jones, but the charm is gouged out in favour of sneering misanthropy.
Even Elizabeth, Comstock's doe-eyed talisman, cannot escape the plot's determination to see her miserable and corrupted, switching within heartbeats from childish naivety to adolescent pouting and, finally, weary resignation.
In my second play-through the only character who provoked a strong emotional response in me was Songbird, Elizabeth's gigantic avian jailer whose possessive love for her tragically suffocates them both.
Infinite is so obsessed with pushing the plot forward, on giving you vigors and skyrails and tears, contemplating religion then racism then capitalism then socialism then quantum physics, that its characters and relationships never get a chance to blossom.
Whatever happened during those five years at Irrational, at some point down the line the heart was cut out of Infinite, resulting in a shooter that ponders an awful lots of subjects, but doesn't really care about any of them. BioShock Infinite is a game that wants to have its cake and eat it, and rather than accept its limitations, rips a hole in the fabric of reality to do so. It's gaming's loftiest and most spectacular folly, a monument to the mad extremes this industry will sometimes go to in search of a better version of an idea already explored to exhaustion.
