Hitman 2: Monitoring - where to sabotage? The Ark Society walkthrough Hitman 2 Guide, Walkthrough
Last update: 21 September 2021
This page in our guide to Hitman 2 contains information on how to deactivate the cameras on the Isle of Sgail. Turning the monitoring off is an important step in every mission - Agent 47 won't leave any traces of his presence. This will also give you a better score.
Keep avoiding cameras' field of view until you deactivate them. Don't break them, this will lower your score at the end of a mission. Sabotage the monitoring system in one of the locations listed below to deactivate all cameras on the map.
The first place to sabotage the monitoring is definitely the best one. Only there you can eliminate all guards. In other places, getting rid of them is much more problematic and risky. We recommend you this location if you don't want to save too often or you play on the Master difficulty level and you can't do manual saves.
Security room is located on the east walls of the castle on level 2. It's best to get there from the north side and break into using a lockpick. Watch out for the camera next to the opposite door - you can be easily spotted. There are at least 4 guards in the room, but you can turn on a radio located in the corner and eliminate them one by one. Remember to hide all of the bodies, so your next victim won't discover them.
The second location where you can sabotage the monitoring is the Chapel. You can get there from the side of the Crypt using a ladder. Unfortunately, in the chapel are opponents preventing you from deactivating the monitoring. You have to draw away 1-2 of them and attack them in the secluded place. Distract the rest of them, for example by throwing a coin.
The third location to sabotage the monitoring is a level of the warehouse with chests containing various artifacts - the Ark Control Room. You can lure out opponents one by one by sabotaging one of the servers. Like in the chapel, you don't have to eliminate all of the enemies. Get rid of the only ones who prevent you from approaching the monitoring system and distract the rest by throwing an item.
The fourth location where sabotaging the monitoring is possible is the security room on level 5, near the Raider Room and Hyperborea Showroom. Getting there is problematic because the door is closed and it requires an access card. Steal the card, use the Electronic Key Hacker or use the opened window on the right of the door and go on the ledge. There should be two mercenaries in the security room. Use throwing items to separate and eliminate them.
Note - Sophia Washington walks in the room from time to time. It's best to wait until she leaves and then sabotage the monitoring. Do that before she returns.
