Act 5 - Scene 1: Penthouse ( A5S1PEN )

After dropping into the Penthouse, wait for your team to land and then send them behind a plantar on the wooden deck.

Move your team toward the doors; more enemies should appear.

Go down the stairs and stack your team on the door. Snake (tag) two enemies, then send your team in. You can go around using a window or another door, but it is not necessary.

Take the staircase on the left. At the bottom, move your team behind cover in the living room area.

Make your way left to the hallway with enemies. Toss a frag or two to clear them out.

Go into the room on the left. You will be on a balcony looking down at two enemies. Toss a frag down and finish any survivors.

Go back into the hallway and down the stairs by the elevator that gets locked.

Go into the small room with a door. Use your thermal scan (up on the D-pad if available) to see three targets.

Stack your team on the door and tell them to place a charge on it. Tell them to take cover by the couch, get rid of the patrolling enemy, and then set them to cover by the window as enemies will try to storm the place. Kill them.

Go out to the walkway and around the corner for the checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death).

Use the outfitting point for ammo. Consider grabbing a shotgun.

Sneak over to the window and scope out the place; use a thermal scan if you like.

You can tell your friends to start attacking, or you can take the first shot. It will turn into a big fight with many enemies all over.

After starting the fight, quickly go around the corner from the window and place your team on the adjacent wall, hopefully under the other window.

Blast the closer enemies and pick off the ones farther away. Retreat to cover if you are taking damage.

When things seem clear, order your squad into the room and behind cover.

You can go left, right, or straight through the bar area to reach the second living room for any remaining enemies.

Send your team to the rappel points on the windows and join them. Remember, you can turn upside down while rappelling.

Go down and kill the guy by the windows below. Quickly breach the room and toss frags to the right. Your team also has frags.

Carefully make your way to the back room and use the outfitting point.

Stack your team on the left door as you snake the door on the right. Tell them to breach the right door with a charge blast, then open your door and quickly kill the shield guy.

Rappel into the lower level. The lights go out, so turn on your night vision.

Stack your team on the left, tell them to breach, and then enter from the right.

The next room may have enemies; toss frags or send your team in.

Outfit at the boxes and snake the nearby door. A smoke grenade may hinder your view, but you can still tag both enemies on the left and right. Alternatively, wait for the smoke to clear. Tell your team to frag the room.

At the next set of doors, you have a hallway. Stack your team on the door on the right as you take the door on the left.

Tell them to breach, and after they do, come in to help. Snake the door and tag the enemy if you like.

Be ready for an enemy coming out of a closet and watch out for other threats as you clear the hallway.

At the marker, you have two options: rappel down the elevator shaft or take the stairs.

Take your team down the steps and stack them on the door. Snake the door and tag the patrolling enemy and another guy, but not the shielded guy.

Go back up and rappel down the shaft, turning upside down. Shoot the shield guy from behind, then send in your team.

Go to the end of the hallway. Stack your team on the door and tell them to clear the room.

Go in and use the outfitting boxes. Climb through the windows on the left.

Look to the left for the explosion. Put your team on the rappel points and tell them to go down.

Follow and fight the few enemies down there. Clear out the initial set.

Move up to a bar on the left and use a turret as you move your team up. Clear out this area.

You will encounter a large group of enemies in the lobby. You can try to enter from the door behind the second bar, or set your team by the doors to the left and then peek through the door behind the bar to scare the enemies.

If successful, enemies should exit through the main doors on the left, where your team is waiting for a massacre. If not, blast your way inside and use the rappel point.
