[Blacknet mission 6] Operation: Jack-Of-All-Trades | Blacknet missions Prototype 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Hunt lieutenant Barry Pollock

New objective: Go to a Blacknet terminal

In order to start this mission, you have to get to location [900, 1263]. Very important information is fact, that the terminal can be used only by authorized persons, so you have to consume a soldier or a scientist first, and then shapeshift. Find the Blacknet terminal and interact with it (B button), watching out for viral detectors.

New objective: Hunt and consume lieutenant Barry Pollock

As you probably remember, it is best to start the hunt with getting to the rooftop of one of the highest buildings in the area. Only then send an impulse (press left analog stick), so you'll easily find the location of the lieutenant you're looking for (screen above).

Lieutenant Barry Pollock patrols streets adjacent to the park and his approximate location is [815, 1245]. He should in a public place, so you do not have to shapeshift in order to approach him.

Destroying helicopters

New objective: Destroy the helicopters

You have to destroy the helicopters flying over the green zone and the easiest way to eliminate them is to tear off their launchers. Go to the rooftop, wait for one of the helicopters and perform a long jump towards it (A button) combined with gliding (right trigger). Catch the machine (B button).

Press X button to confirm tearing off the missile launcher and do it by rhythmically pressing X button. After obtaining the weapon, go to some rooftop and shoot the helicopter (screen above). If two other machines appear, shoot them too.

Tearing off the missile launchers is not the only method to complete this mission, because you can also use blades and tendrils for example, tear off TOW launchers from APCs (screen above) or just take away launchers from Blackwatch soldiers.

Regardless of your behavior, do not forget about regenerating and watch out for super soldiers between opponents (screen above). It is best to avoid contact with them. Depending on your preferences you can fight long battle or exit the alert each time you shoot the helicopter and start the fight again, having element of surprise. Eventually you have to destroy all three helicopters.

New objective: Consume the commander

New objective: Exit the alert

Consuming the commander is very easy, because Heller should land near the last destroyed helicopter. So quickly grab indicated person, not allowing him to flee.

Hunting private Dane Fontenot

New objective: Go to a Blacknet terminal

Go again to location [900, 1263]. Same as previously, you must get inside the base disguised as a soldier or a scientist, remembering about avoiding viral detectors. Interact with the terminal again (B button).

New objective: Hunt and consume private Dane Fontenot

Behave same as with the previous hunt, so get to the rooftop of one of highest buildings in the area in order to locate private. He should patrol the central part of the park and his approximate location is [825, 1300]. Since private is located in the public area, you do not have to disguise in order to approach him.

Retrieving the intel

New objective: Intercept the helicopter

Fortunately you do not have to look for the helicopter, because the only thing to do is to get to the shiny circle in location [856, 1233]. After stepping in the circle, the game will display a cut-scene.

New objective: Retrieve the intel on your biological weakness

Now you have to prepare for some kind of race, because your task is to pick up containers in certain time limit (there is a counter visible on the screen). First container can be found in location [829, 1214] and others are indicated by the game on ongoing basis. Notice, that after approaching each container (you do not have to press any button), time limit increases, but you can't afford any longer pauses.

During this "race", focus on safely reaching the adjacent buildings. It is best in such cases to start with strong bounce (hold A button) and then to rely on gliding (hold right trigger). There are some situations, when you will have to run over the walls and watch out then not to fall down. You should also remember that during gliding you can press A button to perform so-called dashes that help you to approach rooftops of more distant buildings.

In order to complete that mission, it is not required to have fully developed all acrobatic abilities, although they can reduce the race difficulty. Watch out at places where you have to land on the bridge (example in a screen above) and on the parking lot. If you land too far, you'll have to go back to the container, thus losing valuable seconds.

Once you approach the last intel container, the game will display cut-scene with evolved enemy. Since he stole the intel, you have to chase him.

Chasing the evolved

New objective: Chase the evolved

Follow the thief. Notice the bar visible in the upper right screen corner. If the distance between you and the thief increases, the bar becomes shorter. If it gets empty, you'll fail the mission.

During the chase, help yourself of course with sprint, running over walls, long jumps and gliding. Do not try to grab or attack Gallagher too early, because the chase will automatically end after getting near one of the warehouses. You'll also get a new objective.

New objective: Defeat the evolved thief

The fight with the thief is very similar to the one with Dr. Koenig, which took place in the yellow zone. First of all, try to dodge your opponent's attacks, because your opponent wants to get to the melee fight. Look for occasions to perform quick attacks with blades or tendrils. During the fight you should notice that the thief "sticks" his blades into the ground from time to time, becoming helpless in this way. You should take advantage on such situations by quickly running towards him and pressing the button indicated by the game (Y or X), so Heller can perform a strong attack.

You can try to attack your opponent with firearms or the Devastator attack (screen above). When you get hurt, retreat to one of the local streets, looking for civilians as a source of regeneration. Keep attacking the thief, until his health bar is almost empty. It is best to finish the fight by consuming your opponent (button B).

Hunting Dr. Edward Carolino

New objective: Go to a Blacknet terminal

Again go to location [900, 1263]. Same as previously, you must approach the terminal disguised as a soldier or a scientist, remembering about avoiding viral detectors. Interact with the terminal again (B button).

New objective: Hunt and consume Dr. Edward Carolino

Behave same as with two previous hunts, so get to the rooftop of one of highest buildings in the area in order to locate scientist. He should walk the street east from the park and his approximate location is [895, 1370]. Because he stays in a public place, you do not need any disguise to approach him and consume him.

Getting into the base

New objective: Go to base Juliet Seven Three to kill Dr. Fischer and the escaped infected

The next target is location [918, 1545] and since it is a base not accessible by civilians, you should disguise as Dr. Carolino or other authorized person. Once you get there (screen above), it turns out, that fights take place in the base.

New objective: Use the hand scanner to enter the base while it's under attack

I definitely recommend not joining the fights, because you could be then easily exposed. Run between fighting characters, remembering about avoiding viral detectors. The hand scanner you're looking for can be found in location [922, 1540].

New objective: Go to the main room to find Dr. Fisher

Go to the main base room in location [913, 1543]. In order to get inside, you have to activate hand scanner (button B).

Eliminating brawlers

New objective: Kill the escaped brawlers before they make it to the streets

Despite appearances you do not have to hurry, because brawlers are not going anywhere. It is best to let monsters kill several facility workers, while in the meantime you can consume a soldier with rocket launcher.

Join the fight with brawlers only when they are starting to win. Remember about well-known tactics of elimination these beasts - jump over them and perform series of quick attacks (with blades or tendrils).

If you do not have to fight using melee attacks, you can use the firearms as well, preferably rocket launchers. Look around for a special shed with launchers (screen above). I suggest consuming each defeated brawler. Fight until you kill all mutants.

Consuming Dr. Fischer

New objective: Consume Dr. Fischer to hinder the weaponization program

Depending on your preferences, you can kill rest of Blackwatch soldiers or follow Dr. Fischer right away. Find him in one of the side rooms, then grab him and consume him (button B and button Y).

New objective: Exit base Juliet Seven Three

The base exit can be found in location [955, 1533] and before using the hand scanner make sure that you're disguised as Dr. Fischer or other authorized person. Once you get outside, move away from the base and the mission will end. Notice, that as a reward for completing the mission, you can select a mutation from Power Specialist category.
