Abducting Sokolov | Mission 4 - The Royal Physician Dishonored Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
New Main Quest: Render Sokolov unconscious
Remember that Sokolov cannot die or you will fail the entire mission. It's best to wait until he stops somewhere for a longer period of time, sneak from behind, and choke him. If you are noticed, use sleeping bolts and don't let Sokolov escape.
New Main Quest: Carry Sokolov to Samuel the Boatman, under the bridge near Sokolov's home
Before you carry away the unconscious Sokolov, it would be a good idea to perform a few additional actions. Collect the Sokolov's house key and use it to free the captive woman. Explore the greenhouse in search of Lieutenant Niles' Report, Sokolov's health elixir (another ones can be produced), an Audiograph and a rune. It's also a good idea to return to Sokolov's private quarters on the lower floor, and use the key to open one of the cupboards in order to find as many as three bars.
Return to Sokolov and lift his body. The easiest method to leave the mansion is by teleporting from one of the balconies (the above screenshot).
If your Blink is not developed enough, I recommend that you carry Sokolov down to the second floor. Turn left in order to reach the lift shown in the above screenshot. It's inactive by default so you need to bring here a whale oil tank and place it in the slot. After you restore the lift to full operation, use it to return to the ground floor and, more precisely, into the vicinity of the main entrance to the mansion.
New Main Quest: Travel with Samuel and Sokolov back to the Hound Pits Pub
The only thing left here to do, is return to the rendezvous point, but be careful because there are new guards around. You do not need to use the main streets, especially that Samuel is waiting for you at the river bank underneath the bridge (the above screenshot). During the conversation with him confirm that you want to leave this location.
