The Cheap Method

  1. Bring the Krugermeier (a silenced pistol), Coins (distraction items), and place the Sieger 300 Ghost (a sniper rifle) into the Stock Room. Start at the Security Hut.
  2. Run down to the Linen Room. Go to the shelving on the west side and toss a Coin onto the northwest corner to lure the Groundskeeper.
  3. Subdue the Groundskeeper and drag him to the Container for hiding. Note: Luring him prevents noise from attracting a nearby Staff person.
  4. Go to the Laundry Room to acquire the Master Keycard.
  5. Run up to the 2nd Floor using the Stock Room stairs. Go the long way around the Fumigation Area to avoid the Enforcer (an NPC (non-player character — anyone the game controls, not you) who will spot you if you are in the wrong disguise) by the door.
  6. Carefully avoid the patrolling Enforcer and enter the Security Room to shoot out the Recorder (a device that records audio).
  7. Go up to Room 202.
  8. When Neil and his friend are talking about the Letter, enter the bedroom to subdue the Crew there and drag him to the balcony.
  9. When Neil goes to the bathroom, subdue him, take the Letter, and drag him behind the bathtub to hide him.
  10. Go down to the Reception Desk and carefully drop off the Letter while avoiding the Enforcer.
  11. Go to the Stock Room, acquire the Briefcase, and go down to the Linen Room.
  12. Place the Briefcase on the floor at the south end of the west side shelving. Exit through the east door and wait.
  13. Ken will eventually get the Letter and come downstairs. The two remaining people in the Linen Room will leave.
  14. After they go through the stairway door, quickly place a Coin on the floor in line with the door and the orange pallet jack.
  15. Otis will come out, see the Coin, and go to it. As he walks to it, subdue him and dump him in the Container. Note: This is necessary because, unlike on other difficulty settings, he will walk back into the Room after a few seconds and won't leave.
  16. Sneak back in. Ken should be on his phone talking to Dexy. Sneak up and subdue Ken.
  17. Take out the Rifle, shoot Ken in the head, and dump him in the nearby Container. Put the Rifle back in the Briefcase before leaving.
  18. Cut back through the Laundry and Staff Rooms and go back upstairs.
  19. Go back up to Room 202's bedroom and balcony and take the Recording Crew Disguise from your unconscious victim.
  20. Leave the room, avoiding Enforcers, and take the stairs up to Cross' Suite.
  21. Go upstairs and through the Small Garden into the Master Bedroom.
  22. Drop the Briefcase by the Closet and go back into the main area.
  23. Poison Dexy to get the Safe Combination.
  24. Get the USB Flash Drive from her Safe and go back to the Bedroom.
  25. Get the Rifle and drop it in the Bathroom.
  26. Play the recording on the Laptop to lure Jordan in. Ambush him when he gets into position and drag him to the Closet.
  27. Get the Rifle, shoot him in the head, and hide him in the Closet.
  28. Drop the Rifle and take the North Pipe to go back down to Room 202.
  29. Re-acquire the Security Guard Disguise, then go downstairs and leave the mission via the Basement Exit.
Tips
  • Use your Instinct (a visual aid to highlight NPCs and objectives) frequently to track enemy patrols and identify targets.
  • Always be aware of your surroundings and the minimap (a small map displayed on the HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap), showing your immediate area) to avoid detection.
  • Utilize disguises to bypass security and access restricted areas.
  • When subduing NPCs, ensure you drag their bodies to inconspicuous locations to prevent them from being discovered.
  • The Cheap Method requires careful timing and execution, especially when luring and subduing NPCs.
  • Completing the mission with specific actions can also complete the following Challenges:
  • Take My Breath Away [4,000 XP] - Standard: Kill Jordan with a Sniper Rifle through the window in the Queen Suite.
