Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints

What's the best strategy for assaulting the robots?

  • 1 of 7: After getting the EMP grenade, go back down the stairs and jump over the railing on the right side near the bottom.
  • 2 of 7: Crouch-run back to the nearest set of barrels, then cover-jump your way back to the power generator you were at earlier.
  • 3 of 7: Stay in cover mode against the back of the generator and watch the nearest robot. When it looks like you can make it unseen, crouch-run over to the big helicopter landing pad and go under it.
  • 4 of 7: Look around under the pad for some heavy rifle ammo and an energy pack, then get your EMP grenade equipped and ready to throw.
  • 5 of 7: After quicksaving, peek out from under the pad so that you can throw the grenade at a robot. If it doesn't disable the robot, quickrestore and try again.
  • 6 of 7: If you don't have another EMP grenade, you'll need to use the heavy rifle against the other robot.
  • 7 of 7: To keep it from being able to fire back at you, stay near the center of the under-the-helipad area and only shoot at it when it's moving by a large opening. If you get too close to one of those openings, the robot may fire at you.
