If you're using a lot of ammo, she'll throw you a gun of the type you currently have selected. While in combat, it seems to be more around 30 seconds when she'll throw you something. Every minute that you're just wandering around with no cutscenes, she'll throw you some money. The cooldown on money is only on when you're out of a combat situation. What causes her to throw you the correct thing has to do with a priority system based on what she can give you at the time (what items she's said she'll get for you) and what you're using most of the time. This is an ability that is on a cool down effect, similar to abilities in other games.This can be helpful in some "last ditch" combat situations, since you trade the reload delay for a period of invulnerability+free reload+free ammo.Įlizabeth can also open rifts to give you a combat advantage (this starts in the Hall of Heroes), but that's another topic. The implication of being thrown a fully-loaded weapon is that you can bypass the reload delay on a weapon by firing until empty, and then accepting her assistance.She's not grabbing a fixed spawn jar of salts, or looting a corpse, she's conjuring one out of thin air. The items all appear to be objects that are not in the environment.If you're low on health and in a combat situation, this is a good thing to keep in mind. You can't catch things while aiming down sights.She has a way of teleporting close to you when she has something, but I've still managed to get her to throw through walls at times. She can throw through solid objects and at infinite distance.It's still a good idea to take cover prior to catching, since you're likely to be somewhat disoriented as the camera angle switches around a couple of times in quick succession. When you're catching, you're invincible.Some other notes about Elizabeth's game mechanics: I've found that at harder difficulties she can't find as much stuff. I've been down to my last clip in both weapons, a sliver of health, and no salts to speak of, and she'll just cower in the corner. When she declares she's out, you're out of luck. In combat, you will only get so many items from her before she'll declare she's all out. This can be a good indication that it's time to change tactics - she'll reliably warn you that you're running low on ammo or salt, for instance. Usually she will notify you that she's "looking" for things when your ammo, salt, or health is about half, and then later she'll throw you something. However, it seemed like whenever I was near a shopping area with vending machines, she would toss me some extra money. You can leave the game idle, and she'll not throw you any money. For money, there's almost certainly triggers in the environment that count. The difficulty and how many times in the current engagement she's helped you. In my experience, health takes precedence, and then whatever combat action I was taking when she first started noticing I was low. You can drop/change weapons, and she'll still throw you the one she's got - you'll drop your current weapon if you don't have one of whatever she's tossing. When she says she has something, she is at that point locked in to whatever she's holding. If you're low on ammo, she'll toss you a fully loaded weapon (always the same one I was using when she called out to me) and some extra ammo. If you're low on health, she'll toss a health kit. The current situation and your combat strategy. (With thanks to hammar for jogging my memory about the precise order and locations on these) There's always a dialog the two of you have before she gains a new "ability" - she'll say something like "Those Vigors seem to be quite powerful, I'll keep you stocked in Salts" before she starts throwing you Salts in combat. Later, as you're heading towards Hall of Heroes, she will start throwing you weapons. She'll mention that she's going to keep an eye out for money. For instance, she starts throwing you money after Battleship Bay, when you encounter a vending machine. She will start throwing you things after you have a conversation with her about them. Elizabeth will give you things based on a few factors:
