Factory Compound - Getting inside the factory building | 11: Dexter Industries Hitman: Absolution Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

General objectives of the stage: Getting inside the factory compound is the next important step and this is not very easy to achieve, because even on lower difficulty levels there are many security guards and other characters in the area, which can easily expose Agent 47.

There are several ways to get inside the factory compound. First of them is getting to the rooftop. In order to do this, go to the left, using the narrow ledge shown on the above screen.

Carefully walk past machinery, which should be occupied by a single guard and a single truck driver. Eventually you should reach a shutter shown on the above screen. You should watch out here, because this area is patrolled by a single guard, who can occasionally stop just here.

After getting through the shutter you'll find yourself in the area guarded by two guards. One of them constantly moves and another stands at the set place, neat the dog cage. If you plan to eliminate local enemies, then start with killing the guard patrolling the area and then distract the second opponent, e.g. using the radio. In case of more peaceful gameplay you might use Instinct to quickly move past those characters.

If there is such opportunity, you should look into a storage located on the left - you need a key card to open it (more on finding the card is written later on). Inside the storage you'll find proximity mines, STG 58 Elite assault rifle and unique Chipmunk costume (when wearing it you have same access level as truck drivers).

In order to get to the factory's rooftop, you have to start climbing at the place shown on the above screen. Grab subsequent edges and move over narrow ledges. You should not have big problems with that and you won't get spotted during these actions.

The factory's rooftop is patrolled by a single person regardless of the difficulty level. You can sneak past the guard or eliminate him. It is also worth to explore the room on the rooftop - you'll find remote explosives and one more Kazo TRG sniper rifle there. Ultimately you have to locate a ladder shown on the above screen.

Another way of getting inside the factory building is using the main entrance. In order to do this, you have to reach the stairs shown on the above screen, leading to the upper door.

As the square in front on the factory compound is patrolled by many security guards, it is worth to consider obtaining truck driver disguise. But you should know that it will be more difficult to stay in hiding once you get inside the factory, while wearing this disguise. If you want to try it anyway, then I recommend neutralizing a civilian on the parking lot or one of persons visiting the canteen toilet (you can get inside the toilet by walking over a ledge and then using the open shutter).

The third method to get inside the factory is using the side entrance for staff and special guests. But first you have to get there and in order to do this it is best to use a ventilation shaft shown on the above screen, located at the canteen (this is a building closest to the bridge).

After exiting the shaft, move to the right, using vehicles and other objects as covers. A side entrance to the factory building is shown on the above screen. I do not recommend getting there disguised as a security guard, because you may be exposed even on lower difficulty levels. It would be also difficult to distract both guards guarding the passage.

The best method to guarantee the safest access to the factory building is obtaining arms dealer disguise. Explore the square right from the factory, finding the proper person (arms dealer is wearing a suit and can be found near the red sport car).

Since the arms dealer keeps standing on the square, you have to lure him to some secluded place. A good spot to attack him is a warehouse shown on the above screen. You can also explore this area, finding there a key card among other things (you can use it to open a storage mentioned earlier, located left from the main entrance to the factory).

Start with eliminating enemies inside the warehouse and then start alarms in cars parked nearby. At the beginning only security guards will be lured by that by after a while arms dealer also will come to check it out.

After obtaining arms dealer disguise, you can go to the main entrance or to the side entrance for staff and guests mentioned earlier (screen above). By the way - arms dealer disguise has two huge advantages: you have full access to all areas and no one can expose you.
