The most important locations on the Guernsey map

1. Radio communication point - point 2 on the map

You have to pass this point while traveling from the starting point to the northern part of the map. Sabotaging the enemy communications system is linked to an optional mission objective. In addition, you can find there, among others, panzerfaust and a generator to sabotage - it will allow you to safely shoot from the roof of the building and get rid of many soldiers in the area.

1. Tanks - 3 points on the map

There are two tanks on the map, and the one near one of the entrances to the Hidden Facility may be more problematic as it may interfere with completing the mission. You can try to avoid or destroy tanks - you can use explosives, TNT, Panzerfausts, or special weapons with armor piercing rounds.

1. Underground Hospital - point 5 on the map

Investigating the Underground Hospital is one of the ways to obtain information on Kraken and find out about the Hidden Facility. It has 3 entrances (south, north-west, and north-east), and they have a similar level of guard. The most important document is in the northern part of the hospital.

1. Hidden Facility - point 6 on the map

You can find out about it in the northwestern part of the map in the Underground Hospital or fortification south of it. It has two entrances - the southern one is safe, and the eastern one is guarded by e.g. tank. There is a dock with U-boat in the hidden facility, and you have to destroy this location (you can choose 3 possible ways).

1. Mirus battery - point 9 on the map

There are two Mirus batteries on the map, but only the one in the northern part of the island is active and linked to the main mission objective. On your way there, you can hide in the trenches or eliminate enemies from a nearby bunker. There are 3 variants of destroying the gun, and you can choose any.

Mission 5 – general information

In the fifth mission of Sniper Elite 5, you visit Guernsey island with German fortifications. This level has vast open spaces, but while you play it, you will also visit two larger underground locations related to the main mission objectives: a hospital and a hidden facility. It is worth exploring these locations because each has several noteworthy rooms.

A serious threat while exploring the island is 2 enemy tanks, which can easily pinpoint and attack the hero. You can avoid tanks or try to destroy them. An example of a technique to eliminate an enemy tank is described on the Finding Stealth Plates page in our walkthrough because one of the tanks is stationed near the main mission objective.

The default starting point for the mission is the southern end of the map, but you can unlock 2 farms in the eastern part of the island as alternative starting locations. They can make it easier for you to complete mission objectives when repeating a stage. Mission 5 has various main and side quests. We discussed them on the following pages:

1. Finding Stealth Plates - this is one of the main objectives of the mission. You have to search 2 locations on the map - Underground Hospital and Hidden Facility.
2. Destroying the Kraken's prototype - this is the next main objective of the mission to complete after reaching the hidden facility. Your task is to destroy the U-boat, and we've described 3 variants for completing this task.
3. Neutralizing the Mirus Battery - this is the last of the three main objectives of the mission. The Battery in the northern part of the island can be neutralized in 3 ways, and our walkthrough describes them all.
4. Side quests - in the fifth mission of the campaign, you have 2 optional quests to complete. They are related to neutralizing radio communications and stopping the construction of the second Mirus gun.
5. Lanzo Baumann - is one of the Kill List Targets, and there is an optional challenge related to him. Our walkthrough describes how to get rid of Baumann by burying him in concrete at the construction site.

Mission 5 has 19 secrets and collectibles . There are 3 workbenches, as well as various artifacts or letters. We have marked their locations on the map. Additionally, you can find gnomes - easter eggs associated with one of the medals.
