(6) Aggressive solution: Reaching the main area of the basement Deus Ex: HR Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

From the conversation with Prichard you will learn that in order to question Eliza, you need to find room 802-11. It's very far from the starting point, so for now you should just focus on passing through the first location into the middle part of the basement.

Wait for the funicular to take you to the level 2 of the basement #1. Stay inside the car and wait for the two first enemies to arrive #2. It would be good to attack them by surprise, thanks to which eliminating them won't cause you any problems. On a side note, it's worth noticing that you don't really need to use any weapons here, as you can pretty much use the Multiple Take-Down trick described above and take them both out at the same time.

Approach the end of the tunnel with two laser barriers. Depending on how loud was your last fight and when the alarm started, you might need to be ready for a few new soldiers to arrive #1. What's more, the mercenaries might be accompanied by an enemy robot #2, in which case you should use an EMP grenade or some heavy weapon. After taking care of them, take a look around the funicular to find, inter alia, an ammo crate holding an EMP grenade.

Move forward, passing through more laser barriers. After closing in on the middle part of the bunker (screen above), make sure that there aren't any enemies heading in your direction. If it happens otherwise, quickly hide behind any cover and get rid of them. With that taken care of, you can start planning your further actions without being bothered.

Notice! The description of further actions can be found in Step 7 (Reaching the staircase).
