Follow this Bioshock Infinite walkthrough for Chapter 19: The Gunsmith Shop. Learn how to get through Chen-Lin's Shop, defeat soldiers in The Plaza of Zeal, and reach Shantytown.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Enter Chen-Lin's Shop and go to the top of the area.
  2. 2
    Talk to the man at the top, then go downstairs and talk to the woman blocking the way.
  3. 3
    After the conversation, head back downstairs and through the door.
  4. 4
    Return outside and defeat the 7 soldiers in The Plaza of Zeal. Be aware of enemies using the auction platform and stairs, and some attempting to flank you.
  5. 5
    After clearing the area, head down the road towards the Good Time Club. Look for the building with the ‘Shantytown’ sign on the right and enter.
  6. 6
    Inside, use the Dollar Bill and Veni! Vidi! Vigor! vending machines if desired. Use the lever opposite to open the next door.
  7. 7
    Proceed to the Path to Shantytown. You will encounter five Founder Soldiers and a rocketeer on a raised platform.
  8. 8
    Utilize the three tears in the area: a freight hook, a piece of cover, and a friendly auto-turret. Use the cover to safely deal with the rocketeer and other soldiers, then activate the auto-turret to help clear the remaining enemies.
  9. 9
    Optionally, check the adjacent building behind the auto-turret tear for a Minuteman’s Armory to upgrade weapons.
  10. 10
    Continue along the bridge, climb the stairs at the end, and go around the large wall.
  11. 11
    In the room on the other side, locate and enter the office. Loot the desks for a hand cannon and a lock pick. Note the locked vigor at the back for a later return.
  12. 12
    Exit the office, climb the nearby steps, enter the elevator, and press the button to descend to Shantytown.
Tips
  • When fighting in The Plaza of Zeal, enemies may use the auction platform and stairs for vantage points, and some may attempt to flank you from behind the central building.
  • In the Path to Shantytown, use the available cover to eliminate the rocketeer safely before engaging other enemies. The auto-turret tear can assist in clearing the area.
  • A Minuteman’s Armory is available in an adjacent building behind the auto-turret tear for weapon upgrades.
  • A vigor is locked behind bars in the office before descending to Shantytown; remember to return for it later.
