Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints
How can I get to the transmitter unseen?
1 of 13: Near the weapon cache is a hole in the ceiling that you can jump up through.
2 of 13: Hop over a concrete barrier (or go around them), then crouch-walk under the boards on the doorway.
3 of 13: Go past a ladder and through the door ahead, then go down to the end of the wall on the right and enter cover mode.
4 of 13: There's a thug in the next room who'll go pee in a paint can, allowing you to easily sneak up behind him and hit him with a takedown move.
5 of 13: Sneak slowly down the stairs, then go into cover mode against the wall on the left.
6 of 13: Move along it in cover mode, leaning on the "Jump" key to round corners when you come to them, until you reach an opening in some boards that lead to a ladder.
7 of 13: Leave cover mode and sneak over to the ladder, then climb up it and the next ladder.
8 of 13: Sneak over to an opening next to three movable barrels, then check the area ahead and to the left to see that several red-blinking prox mines have been set on the walls.
9 of 13: There's no way to deactivate them or sneak around them, so pick up and throw barrels at them from a safe distance so they'll detonate. (Note that you'll probably have to throw two barrels to get all the mines.)
10 of 13: That'll put the two thugs in the area past the mines on the alert. Go crouch down near the top of the second ladder and wait until they stop looking for you (which can be quite awhile).
11 of 13: Sneak down the hallway that was mined, then go down the steps and into cover mode. Peeking around the corner, you should see that one thug is sitting and watching TV, and the other one isn't visible (since he's outside).
12 of 13: Sneak up behind the TV-watching thug and take him down, then sneak outside and take the other thug down.
13 of 13: Go to the other end of the outside area to find the large transmitter gadget.
