This is called
Personal Contract in the game and serves as the games tutorial or introduction to the mechanics that will serve you well throughout the story.
DISCLAIMER I will only be posting the solution that worked for
ME and my
PLAY STYLE! There are other solutions. Feel free to add them.
I will describe
Personal Contract in 5 parts.
1. Gardens.
2. Greenhouse
3. Cliff
4. Mansion ground floor
5. Mansion 2nd floor
The
Gardens main goal is to find a passage leading to the greenhouse.
- 1. Move straight ahead. After reaching the mansion's gate, choose a path located on the left. Be careful, because there is a single enemy in the area. Divert the attention of the guard by picking up axe, brick or crowbar and throwing that object (not directly at the guard!).
- 2. Keep moving along the path. 2 more guards are up ahead. I just snuck past them.
- 3. Choose the left path and head towards a shed on the left. Distract the single guard with either the book or coffee mug When the guard moves, go left.
- 4. Use cover ahead when you see 2 guards. When they start talking, they will start moving. Go to the wooden bridge, turn left and quickly go to the entrance to the greenhouse.
The
Greenhouse is mostly teaching you about disguises. But the main story objective is to get to the mansion.
- 1. Get to the nearest cover and wait for the guards to get to the railing, To get mansion exterior guard disguise. you have to sneak up behind the guard and subdue or snap the neck.
- 2. Move on towards the greenhouse with the guard disguise. Along your way you can find a gardener disguise but the guard disguise is easier to get into the greenhouse.
- 3. If you're disguised as a guard, move to the left, walking past gardeners. In order to stay camouflaged, press and hold Instinct button.
Do not release it until you enter the greenhouse and move away from them (this is very important on higher difficulty levels because enemies are then more sensitive to your actions). - 4. Do not approach talking guards but just interact with a valve. Wait until guards leave the greenhouse and follow them.
- 5. Carefully approach guards standing next to the cliff. Sneak past them and keep on the right side of the stairs.
- 6. Move to the building edge and press Interact button
in order to "stick" to the wall. Move to the left and then lower down.
The
Cliff forces you to maintain certain precautions and encourages exploring the area thoroughly in search of secret items. You'll find your first piece of
evidence in this area which is linked to
Information is Power trophy.
- 1. Move successively to the left. Go pass two shutters on the way. After reaching the end of the edge, grab the upper one.
- 2. Keep moving to the left. Stop at the shutter, where you'll see the guard. Wait until the guard finishes talking on the phone and moves away from the window. Go through the shutter.
- 3. Let the Guards walk away and sneak past them.
- 4. Use the door leading to the security room and spend some time to look around. You can find there evidence (secret) and another mansion interior guard disguise.
- 5. Interact with the laptop in order to disable security system. Now you can head towards the door leading to the upper main of the mansion.
The
Mansion Ground Floormain goal is to get a keycard from the head of security.
- 1. To continue on easily be sure to have on the mansion interior guard disguise or the chef disguise I started as the guard and subdued the chef and hid his body.
- 2. Once in the Chef Disguise I headed up the stairs to the balcony. Go to the bathroom to find Sleeping Pills
- 3. In the mansion main room, go to the next room where you see a counter and a coffee mug and put the sleeping pills in there. Wait for the head of security to drink the coffee. He will pass out nearby in a chair. Take the keycard from his body and for good measure hide his body in a nearby closet.
- 4. Look for evidence BEFORE using the keycard on the door. Go back to the main floor and look for some distant stairs near the starting point. Evidence should be around there.
- 5. Finally go upstairs and distract the guard or simply just wait till he goes to the bathroom to use the keycard on the door scanner.
The
Mansion Second Floor is where we assassinate Diana for the trophy.
- 1. Follow a very linear path. Eventually you have to reach the bathroom with Diana. Trophy should pop here.
- 2. Explore the rooms while you can.
- 3. Hide behind cover when you come to the room with 4 guards.
- 4. Remember use instinct here: Hold then mark the guards heads and then hit
- 5. Go where Victoria is located and just wait for Agent 47 to open the lock.
Mission completed!
