Walkthrough
  1. 1
    To find Sandoval, go to the Chiron Building (Jensen’s apartment building) and climb the fire escape in the nearby alley.
  2. 2
    Head through the door on your right and sneak downstairs. Take out the hostile thugs.
  3. 3
    Explore the apartment around the corner. Be cautious of a trap with two EMP GRENADES under a body if you pick up the PRAXIS KIT. Take out Zeke Sanders when he investigates; he has a POCKET SECRETARY with a safe keycode.
  4. 4
    The LVL4 safe (code 5463) is behind a picture frame in the next room. It contains 210 CREDITS, 78 CREDITS, 4x TRANQUILIZER DARTS, 2x FRAG MINES, and 2x STUN GUN DARTS.
  5. 5
    In the bathroom, move crates to reveal a breaker box. Flip it to reveal a secret basement entrance. Alternatively, destroy the breakable wall in the bathroom to reach the same area.
  6. 6
    Downstairs, you can avoid two guards by entering a nearby vent. Drop down the shaft, one level at a time.
  7. 7
    If you choose to engage the guards, use cloak and perform takedowns. The weapon cabinets contain 2x COMBAT RIFLE, SHOTGUN, and 3x REVOLVER.
  8. 8
    The lockers contain 15 SNIPER RIFLE AMMO, 4x SHOTGUN CARTRIDGES, 5x SHOTGUN SHELLS, and 20x COMBAT RIFLE AMMO.
  9. 9
    Enter the sewers via the manhole in the red container.
  10. 10
    In the sewers, take out the first guard when he passes by, hiding behind barrels.
  11. 11
    To bypass the laser grid on the left and guards on the right, enter the vent near the green barrel to reach a small room (TRAVELER 100XP).
  12. 12
    From this room, you can take out a guard in the next hallway. The LVL 4 security panel (8218) disables the laser grids. Beware of four FRAG MINES on the overpasses.
  13. 13
    A breakable wall on the southwest leads to EXPLORER 200XP and a CYBERBOOST PROENERGY BAR.
  14. 14
    Sneak up on the three guards at the burning barrel for a double takedown, then take down the third guard.
  15. 15
    Collect 6x SHOTGUN CARTRIDGES from the barrels.
  16. 16
    Head to the door around the corner to confront Sandoval. Empathize with him to win the social battle (1000X, GHOST 500XP, SMOOTH OPERATOR 250XP, SILVER TONGUE 1000XP).
  17. 17
    Take his REVOLVER and search the room for 5x REVOLVER AMMO and a HUGH DARROW EBOOK.
  18. 18
    Go through the other door to reach another part of the sewers.
  19. 19
    Find 28 CREDITS and 300 CREDITS behind a breakable wall on your right.
  20. 20
    The ladder leads to a closed door with a LVL 1 security system that links to the main sewer system.
  21. 21
    Head to the Chiron Building and meet Malik on the roof (750XP).
  22. 22
    If you convince Dr. Isaias Sandoval out of committing suicide, you will earn the achievement/trophy “The Last Straw”.
