Factory Compound - Accessing the factory building lobby | 11: Dexter Industries Hitman: Absolution Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
General objectives of the stage: Getting into the lobby of main building aims to approaching the elevator, which is the ultimate goal of this mission. Depending on your disguise and ways chosen previously, this can be very easy or very difficult to achieve.
If you got into the factory building through the rooftop or the main entrance, then you'll find yourself at the reception shown on the above screen. Depending on your disguise it might be necessary to avoid local security guards (you might "glue" to the counter) or truck drivers (it is best to wait until one of them ends the conversation with receptionist).
If you have arms dealer disguise, you can go through the reception right away, because you won't get stopped by anyone. If you have other disguise (or you do not use them at all), then try to reach toilets located right from the reception as fast as possible.
After reaching the toilets, locate an entrance to the ventilation shaft shown on the above screen. Go through the shaft but before you exit it, make sure that no one is looking at. Carefully sneak past receptionist's back and at least one security guard.
Carefully move through the corridor connecting reception with lobby, reaching the place shown on the above screen. Before you perform any further actions, wait until another worker ends a conversation with one of security guards.
If you get inside the factory building using the side entrance for staff and special guests, then you will have to walk through not long corridor. I assume of course that you have arms dealer disguise, because otherwise you should keep sneaking and using Instinct to hide true identity of Agent 47.
