Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Kim will alert you that the New Eden Compound is under attack. Head there to confront Mickey and Lou.
  2. 2
    Make your way to the chapel at the marker, reviving injured allies along the way.
  3. 3
    Mickey and Lou will appear in the chapel and initiate the fight after a brief dialogue. They will use smoke grenades to obscure the area.
  4. 4
    The compound is large and filled with Highwaymen, attack dogs, and the sisters. Use the ammo caches and supplies in the shacks to resupply.
  5. 5
    Mickey wields a sniper rifle and shotgun, and will also use a flamethrower and explosives. Lou also uses a sniper rifle. Stay behind cover to avoid Lou's sniper fire and prioritize taking her down first.
  6. 6
    The sisters can revive each other, so capitalize on opportunities to eliminate one when possible.
  7. 7
    When Lou's health is around 40%, reinforcements will arrive. Deal with the new thugs and dogs, and try to finish Lou off before she can heal. Horatio can help keep dogs at bay.
  8. 8
    When one sister is defeated, a chopper will bring more enemies. Hunt down the remaining sister, avoiding her flamethrower. More reinforcements will arrive when her health drops to about 40%.
  9. 9
    After both sisters are defeated, a cutscene will play. Loot their bodies for valuable resources.
