Follow Pavel and avoid detection | Chapter 3: Pavel

You'll regain control over Artyom only after killing a hostile officer. Note also that you've obtained a knife from Pavel. Wait until your ally unlock an access to the trash chute and jump inside, thus getting out from the locked room.

Follow Pavel. Right now you do not have any firearms but this is not a serious problem, since the beginning part of this chapter focuses only on staying in hidden. Stop after reaching larger oval area. Crouch and wait for Pavel's reaction.

Keep close to Pavel and do not leave shadows, because that would mean detection and triggering an alarm. If you fail to make first move, wait until a large fan rotates sufficiently so you can choose an unlit path. Repeat those actions after a moment, again trying to stay in shadows.

Listen to short speech from Pavel and approach him to give him a hand. Wait until you ally lowers a ladder for you. Use it and climb up, reaching upper metal balconies.

Make sure that you're crouching and slowly follow Pavel. Listen to your ally's instructions, stopping and resuming your march, according to his guidance. After reaching the elevation shown on the screen, listen to one more hint about silently getting rid of the right guard.

Turn right, jump down to the lover catwalk and carefully approach the opponent. Wait until Pavel distracts another guard visible in a distance and start your actions. Move behind the guard. Note, that you can either kill your opponent or just knock him out. The latter option is of course better, especially if you want to complete the game without any murders in order to get the proper achievement. After the successful action do not forget to examine the body (you can often find ammo, military-grade rounds and other interesting things).

Pull the lever found near just neutralized guard, lowering the stairs leading to the upper level of explored constructions. Prepare for quite simple action - you have to ensure Pavel a safe entrance to the tunnel with a new enemy by unscrewing the light bulb in a reflector located on the right.

Turn around and wait until the guard visible in a distance goes to the left. Now go over the scaffolding here. After getting from the scaffolding turn left and get rid of the mentioned guard according to your preferences (kill/knock out).

Now you can approach a new ladder, reaching an entrance to the narrow tunnel after a moment. Artyom will automatically start crawling here and it is worth to stop by along your way to listen to enemy conversations. After getting to the tunnel exit, your character will automatically obtain first throwing knife. Examine body of a dead ally, getting two more knives.

I suggest now to hide at some unlit places, because a single guard will appear here soon. It would be good of course to get rid of him. If you do not mind killing him, you can use a throwing knife. Otherwise it would be best to get him from behind and knock him out.

Stay in the room, where you got knives and eliminated a guard, because there is a hidden Artyom's diary page lying on the box shown on the above screen. Examine also a nearby corner, finding one more throwing knife. You can now take a narrow passage, used previously by a guard eliminated by you.

Go up the stairs to the upper level and wait until Pavel appears above you. Depending on your preferences you can examine the body of a guard killed by him or right away get to the button located on the right.

After pressing the button quickly hide behind the crate shown on the screen, because after the lock is open, a new guard will appear here. Wait until he goes to the left and get him from behind to kill him or knock him down.

Now you can get to the newly unlocked passage. Pull the lever to close the lock and wait until you get an access to the new area. In the meantime Pavel will give you a revolver and a watch, informing about how visible you are (a blue lights means that you're visible to your enemies).
