Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints
Defeat Burke and his team.
1 of 9: The good news is that this is not a standard boss combat like the ones in the main game. The bad news is that you have to take down Burke *and* all of his men before this objective will count as completed.
2 of 9: As soon as you regain control, crouch down and take cover next to the nearest machine. If you look up, you'll see a sniper on a high-up walkway who would see you if you weren't in cover mode.
3 of 9: Watch for him to turn around, then edge around the corner of the machine you're up against.
4 of 9: Make your way as far to the left as you can while staying in cover mode, making sure the other sniper (up high on the other side of the room) doesn't spot you when you do cover-jumps.
5 of 9: When you've gone as far as you can in cover mode, check the sniper and the huge robot to make sure they can't see you, then crouch-run the rest of the way to a large open storage container.
6 of 9: You're safe next to the container, and next to the brown crate inside the container. Quicksave there, then decide how you want to proceed.
7 of 9: The best plan for taking everyone down stealthily requires you to have the "Jump Enhancement" leg augmentation, so I sure hope you bought that at some point.
8 of 9: Otherwise, you'll probably have to do at least some combat. It would help if you had an EMP grenade to take out the huge robot, plus a sniper rifle and/or rocket launcher with which to shoot down the snipers from floor level.
9 of 9: After Burke and all of his men are down, you'll get the next objective.
