The Watchmaker Hints
How do I avoid getting shot by Krenn?
1 of 6: Notice (by shifting into first person) the door along the wall.
2 of 6: Also, notice that you have a little room to walk around.
3 of 6: Finally, if you walk a little bit closer to the door, and shift to the first-person view again, you'll notice that sometimes, Krenn turns and looks away from you.
4 of 6: Perhaps you can use this to your advantage.
5 of 6: You want to run to the door when he's not looking (make sure you have "Caps Lock" on, so Victoria runs).
6 of 6: The easiest way to do this is by pointing her body towards the door, and shifting to first-person to look at Krenn. As soon as you see him look away, go back to third-person and run through the door.
