(10) Aggressive solution: Leaving the main are of the hotel Deus Ex: HR Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Map legend: 1 - Main staircase; 2 - Fire escape staircase; 3 - Entrance to the ventilation shaft on level three.
Start off by securing level four of the hotel (screen above). You should know that the eastern and western groups of pods are usually being patrolled by two-person teams. That's not all, because the sound of combat may encourage Belltower units from lower floors to show up here. As a result you should always make sure that you're attacking enemy units from behind a good cover and monitor their movements to prevent any kind of surprise attacks.
Secure the entire level four of the hotel and then consider attacking enemy guards seen on the ground floor (screen above). Use the element of surprise and height advantage. It's also important not to remain in the open for too long (balustrades are a decent cover), because Belltower soldiers will be using good guns.
Keep fighting your way to the lower levels, carefully securing each floor and always being prepared to defeat additional enemy units. Once you've reached the bottom level of the hotel deal with the remaining heavily armed soldiers. It's important to pick up valuable and useful heavy rifles found near their bodies (screen above), as well as a datapad will an ironfist password (it's for the nemuni login). Use the same stairs as before to leave the main area of the hotel.
Important! The walkthrough is continued in Step 11 (Travelling through the locker room area).
