Navigate the flooded stairways, bypass locked doors, and overcome radiation hazards in Part 85 of our Deus Ex Remastered walkthrough. Find upgrade canisters, weapons, and crucial nanokeys.
Walkthrough
- 1Find the MAINTENANCE NANOKEY. Exit South and swim up the flooded stairway. Use the Switch to return to familiar territory.
- 2Dive back in and swim to the bottom to find a locked door requiring 60% Strength for an Upgrade Canister. Upgrade Swimming, use a Rebreather, or activate Aqualung. Regeneration can help with damage.
- 3Open the door, grab air, and dive back to explore. A dead body holds a LOCKPICK and an UPGRADE CANISTER. Further on, a dead MJ12 Trooper has a PISTOL, and a crate contains BALLISTIC ARMOR.
- 4Return to the fork past the tripwire trap. Use the Nanokey to open the 90% Strength lock. Climb the ladder to find crates with 10MM AMMO and 7.62x51MM AMMO.
- 5Crawl over pipes near the ceiling of the radioactive room to avoid radiation damage and gain 150 SP EXPLORATION BONUS.
- 6Optionally, return to open the door the regular way, protecting yourself from radiation and damaging green liquid.
- 7Crates contain an EMP GRENADE, and a body has a MULTITOOL. Use the button to open the door.
- 8In the storage room, destroy the Arcbot. Descend the stairs to find two crates with MEDKITS.
- 9The path forward has blue tripwire lasers controlled by an 80% Strength Control Panel. Triggering it summons a turret. You can bypass the panel, disable the lasers, or trip them and hide to destroy the turret. Radar Transparency can help.
- 10On the ground floor of the storage room, find a LOCKPICK in a crate. Near a radioactive barrel, find ROCKETS in another crate.
- 11Ascend the stairs to the supply lift control room. Find a MEDKIT. Set the lift to '2' to reach a crate with a MEDKIT, a crate with a LOCKPICK, and gain 150 SP EXPLORATION BONUS.
- 12A FLAMETHROWER is located between two explosive barrels. Place a Metal Crate in front of it and jump to reach it.
- 13Set the lift to '3', return, and walk over the lift. Destroy the Arcbot.
- 14Find Reynolds' body. Take the MULTITOOL and the CONTROL ROOM NANOKEY. Gain 400 SP ADVANCEMENT BONUS.
- 15Enter the Command Centre. Use the Control Room Nanokey to open the Control Room.
- 16Find crates with a LOCKPICK and 10MM AMMO. Use the Switch to open the door, but be prepared for two MJ12 Troops and a Man in Black outside.
- 17Use Cloaking and speed North to enter a safe room containing the second Backup Power Terminal. Input code 5868 to gain 100 SP ACCOMPLISHMENT BONUS. (Note: A bug allows infinite skill points by repeatedly entering the code).
- 18Access an elevator shaft via a grate. There are no items, but you can gain 50 SP EXPLORATION BONUS by accessing the bottom. (Note: HAZ LAB NANOKEY may be missing in GotYE version).
- 19In the adjacent room, a cabinet has an 80% Strength Lock. Open it with the Dragon's Tooth to find two REBREATHERS, 7.62x51MM AMMO, a BIOELECTRIC CELL, 10MM AMMO, two MEDKITS, a MINI-CROSSBOW, and DARTS.
- 20Ascend the stairs. Take out the two MJ12 Troopers at the top (Gas Grenade or Pepper Gun recommended). Find BALLISTIC ARMOR and 7.62x51MM AMMO in nearby crates.
- 21Head South, sticking to shadows to avoid detection by troops below and a Trooper in the Southeast corner. If done correctly, you can overhear the Trooper giving orders to a female scientist, which is crucial for starting dialogue later.
- 22Take down the single Trooper without alerting others, or use Cloaking.
Tips
- Upgrade Spy Drone to Level 4 (Djibriel's First Time Player Pick).
- Consider upgrading Swimming, using a Rebreather, or Aqualung for underwater sections.
- Environmental Resistance can help mitigate radiation damage.
- Radar Transparency can make you invisible to the turret.
- Cloaking is useful for bypassing enemies and reaching objectives quickly.
- Be mindful of the conversation between the Trooper and the scientist; triggering it correctly is important for later dialogue.
