Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints
How can I get back to the elevator?
1 of 13: Go back down the vent shaft you used to get to Sarif's room, then turn right and go back through the doorway.
2 of 13: Go past the white pipe bundle and enter cover mode next to the large machine. Edge over to where you can see around the corner, and watch for that other run-around zombie.
3 of 13: After he runs up near you and then turns around, go through the next doorway and turn left to find a locked door.
4 of 13: Close the door behind you, then shoot out the mine you see on the wall ahead. There's another one around the corner, on the right wall.
5 of 13: Go up the stairs past the mined hallway, then wait for your radar to stop reading "alarmed" before opening the door. (It may be a *very* long wait.)
6 of 13: Turn left past the door and crouch-run down to a doorway. Past it, go into cover mode against the machinery on the right and edge over to a spot near its left end.
7 of 13: Watch for a back-and-forth zombie to appear nearby, then wait for him to turn around. As soon as he does, crouch-run behind the power generator that's over to the left.
8 of 13: Crouch-run past the generator and to the wall, then turn right and run through one crawlway and into another one. If a zombie catches a glimpse of you during the run, stop near the end of the second crawlway and wait him out.
9 of 13: Quicksave, then exit the crawlway and go into cover mode against the machine that's on the right.
10 of 13: When it's clear, cover-jump over to the red tool cabinets, then edge your way around the corner and over to the left end of the machinery that they're next to.
11 of 13: Cover-jump across to some other machinery when it looks clear, then edge your way over to its left end.
12 of 13: Close the nearby door and open it again (to make it open out the other way), then go through it and turn right.
13 of 13: Go down the hallway to get back to the elevator, then use it to return to where you started.
