Looking Glass (Possible spoilers)

[chord]

So, first let me tell you where I am in the story. Currently I am at the "Detour" stage, when January tells me to go into Psychotronics for whatever reason. I went in there all willy-nilly, but hightailed it back out when I saw there were 15 ish (hyperbole!) Phantoms down there, and went to my quarters to better prepare. My health is 150, suit is at full, psi is at 50.

In my "office", I was staring at the looking glass and decided to break it in case there was a secret place.

There was. Now I'm in a hallway leading to a door that is currently locked, but I can unlock it. I'm tired of being jumpscared by mimics for the day, and I was hoping somebody could tell me if theres any danger in there? (or anything useful)

Please try not to spoil any major story events or twists. That's all I ask

Looking Glass is an abusive partner. Sometimes you break it and it leads to good things, other times it breaks you and leads to sad things.

You'll understand when the time comes, but as a friendly tip - break them all.

You aren't ment to break that one. From what I recall there isn't anything of value in that one.
The door leads to an area that isn't particularly special. Its the small area above the IT room.
Iirc there's one or two (regular) mimics there.

Anyway you'll want to go to Psychotronics first thing. I did everything else first, but that just made things a lot harder since in Psychotronics you find the Psychoscope which you will need to scan enemies (so they dont appear as ??? anymore) as well as give you some useful perks.

Phantoms: believe it or not, those are quite weak compared to most of the other Typhon you will face. Consider this a good time to learn how to deal with them. :P

The IT room can only be accessed in two ways-
1) By hacking a level 2 lock on the door by the stairwell opposite the one you use to get to your office.
2) Entering that room behind your looking glass, unlocking the door you found and smashing the glass floor.There are phantoms in the room and you can find the keycard for the lobby security office somewhere inside.The lobby security room has a shotgun and the shell fabrication plan and starts an optional mission to find some neuromods in the lobby.

However you can enter the lobby security room without any special skills by doing some fancy jumping.

You can also shoot open the door to the security room with the boltcaster.
