Roadmap and Achievement Walkthrough
Roadmap to 1000
Overview: -Estimated achievement difficulty: 4/10 -Offline: 49 (1000) -Online: 0 -Approximate amount of time to 1000http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png: 20-25 hours -Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 1 -Number of missable achievements: 43 -Does difficulty affect achievements: Yes -Glitchy achievements: None (confirmation please) Roadmap and Achievement Walkthrough This roadmap and turned into a mini achievement guide, since there are so many missable achievements. It's only my second roadmap, my first was for Darksiders. All I try to do is to point out where you have to pay attention as not to miss any achievement and prevent you from having to play the game twice. Yes there are spoilers, don't read any further if you are spoiler allergic. This game is not hard, just frustrating in some places. Notably the lack of ingame statistics and boss battles on Hard can suck quite a bit. If you want to 1k this in just 1 playthrough, start a game on Hard (Give Me Deus Ex) and don’t get any alarms (red radar) and don’t kill anyone (this also includes the prologue!). I used takedowns and the Tranquilizer Rifle mostly. Ghost/Smooth Operator bonus at the end of some objectives are a good indication. Merciful Soul bonus after neutralizing an enemy means you didn’t kill him. I got Foxiest of Hounds with 1 unavoidable red radar and that was when the chopper crashed, I just snuck up to the elevator there without being spotted by any enemy. NOTE: I just played through it again on Give Me Deus Ex to test some stuff and got Foxiest and Pacifist even after I had numerous "Hostile" states, got shot at plenty times and OD'ed Brent Radford. I even had a casualty when I EMP'd the mech at the chopper crash and the explosion killed some enemies. However, I did not get any alarms! I only used the Tranquilizer Rifle and Takedowns This means in my opinion: -No other enemies must be alerted other than the one that made you turn "Hostile" -No red cameras -No enemy pushed the alarm (Those hackable buttons on some walls with a hand on it) -No need to worry about alarms in Panchaea at all! -UNSURE: Turret alerts, just avoid those alerts to be sure. -UNSURE: The Fall, I did not test this. -UNSURE: Kills in the prologue, I did get shot at here too. Just sneak past these to be sure. TIP: You can usually avoid a lot of enemies. Also get all 29 eBooks, a lot of areas are one time only! (Locations are posted below, I added my own descriptions and names of the eBooks). If you follow the eBook guide, then Doctorate will pop when you find the last one in Omega Ranch, it did for me. Letting the hostages die, does not screw you out of this achievement! Use this excellent collectable guide with pictures (with permission from Msxboxworld.com) Make a save whenever you get to a new area as backup, possibly only get the sidequests achievements, reload and follow the main quest. This may be handy when going for “Foxiest of Hounds” and “Pacifist”. Most quests have 2 achievements with them, so save a lot and especially before you turn them in. List with multiple achievements in order: · Motherly Ties / Sentimental Value · Cloak & Daggers / The Take · Rotten Business / The Fall · Bar Tab / Guardian Angel · Shanghai Justice / Super Sleuth · Smash the State / Lucky Guess · Acquintances Forgotten / Kevorkian Complex · Corporate Warfare / Ladies Man Technically, you can “miss” all sidequests, but you will get a notification when there is a quest available, except for Talion A.D. This starts the second time in Shanghai in the LIMB. Four other missable sidequest achievements are: Hangar 18, Good Soul, Acquaintances Forgotten and Kevorkian Complex. There are also some “Speech” related achievements and all but one can be obtained w/o the CASIE mod. Just save where mentioned in this guide. Ladies Man is the only exception. I just saved, put 2 point in CASIE for the achievement and reloaded. VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure you read emails about your past after you got “Yes Boss”! In the last level you HAVE to find and talk to William Taggart and David Sarif or you will NOT be able to get all 4 endings! During your playthrough you will most likely pick up the following achievements, but pay attention to them anyway: Transhumanist, just upgrade one augmentation tree fully. Gun Nut, I upgraded my Tranquilizer Rifle (only 4 upgrades and I used it the most, I got this in TYM) Hax0r1!, plenty of hacks available to get 50. Opportunist, you will take down 50 enemies easily. Consciousness is Over-rated, you will also take down/knockout 100 enemies easily. TIP: visit LIMB everytime you come back (ie. Detroit, Detroit II, Shanghai, Shanghai II etc.) to buy 2 Praxis Kits if you have 10k to spare. Theres even a LIMB in the last level for 2 more Praxis Kits. TIP: My must have Augmentations for Foxiest of the Hounds and Pacifist: Hacking: Stealth 3/3 Hacking: Capture 6/8 (only get Turret and Robot if you have spare) Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis 6/8 (Don’t bother with recoil) Icarus Landing System 1/1 (You NEED this in TYM) Reflex Booster 1/1 Cloaking System 3/3 (This will be very helpful in the last level) Very handy to have: Dermal Armor 4/4 (You will love this in a certain boss battle) Implanted Rebreather 1/3 (Gas immunity can be really handy occasionally) Sarif Series 8 Energy Converter (Not a must, but reduces downtime and makes you invisible longer) Thanks for reading and enjoy the game, it's kinda like how Splinter Effect 3 would look like.

List in order you can get them and number of eBooks to get in that area:
Everything that is even remotely missable is in red. Non missable is in grey. Achievement Walkthrough is done! Assuming: You are playing on Give Me Deus Ex You are going for Foxiest of Hounds and Pacifist (and get it ofcourse) You did not put any point into CASIE and follow my guide Then this will be your one and only playthrough for 1k. Prologue (0) TIP: To be safe, don't kill any enemies, just sneak past them! TIP: Letting the hostages die does not matter for Doctorate! Old School Gamer When you first get control of Adam before following Megan, look for these items: · eBook · Toy car · Book · Newspaper · Picture Sarif Industries (1) -The Nature of Neuroplasticity Tech Labs, on the right side of Pritchard. Sarif Manufacturing Plant (2) One time only location! -Neural Interface Protocols: The PEDOT Revolution Room near cam/turret, right after you run into a Praxis Kit. To be safe, I suggest putting that point in Move/Throw Heavy Objects, so you can move the turret. You can also throw a grenade (if you found one) at it or block it’s view with boxes. -Artificial Muscles Just before you meet Zeke. You will see a double door with the yellow waypoint X on it and some windows on fire to its left. First Takedown Just take down the guard after the tutorial Ghost Pick up box from forklift, climb up and enter vent at the end First Hack Unmissable: Pritchard tells you to Unforeseen Consequence Make a save before going through the double door with the yellow waypoint X on it and some windows on fire to its left. Choose “Try to free Josie” then choose Empathize ‘till Zeke does so. Sarif Industries (2) -The Tyranny of Biology Office 25. -The Neural Hub - Design for a Next Generation Office 27. Lesser Evil You will be notified to go to your office after you talked to David when you retun back to Sarif Industries. Talk to Tim Carella. Also check your computer to find Greg Thorpe’s email (only if you saved the hostages). Detroit I (7) TIP: Don't forget to visit LIMB to buy 2 Praxis Kits if you have 5k creds. -The Visual Cortex 2.0 - The Eye, Redesigned Limb (hallway near surgery). -The Threat of Cybernetic Discognition Disorder Police station (morgue). -The Intelligence Circuit Adam's apartment. -Nano Augmentation - Pipedream or Theory for the Future Greg Thorpe's bedroom. (3F in the Detective Chase building, accessible even if you let the hostages die) -Respirocyte Technology & Hazardous Environment Parsing Seurat's bedroom (MCB gang building, also accessible if you let the hostages die). -Vestibular Augmentation and Enhanced Agility Factoring Derelict Row (building below transmitter, on a barrel, see pic in post #27). -Arms (and Legs) for Man - The Structure of Cybernetic Limbs Needs lvl 5 hacking, 1 floor above O'Malley's room, also has a Praxis Kit (you can get this after FEMA Detention Center mission). Or 2356 to enter and 3663 for the Praxis Kit Motherly Ties Megan's mother approaches you after you exit Sarif Industries Sentimental Value Make a save before talking to Megan’s mother at your apartment complex. When looking for evidence you should come across a bracelet in a safe (lvl 3 hacking), just choose to keep this when you turn this quest in. The Desk Job Go to the policestation and talk to Wayne Haas. Choose Absolve ‘till this pops. This is missable, because you can also choose to sneak into the Policestation. Up the Ante! Just before the morgue are a bunch of lockers, one of them (rear leftish) has a free reload upgrade for you! Just upgrade a weapon, I suggest the Tranquilizer Rifle. Cloak & Daggers After you leave the Policestation Pritchard tells you to go meet Jenny Alexander, she’s on Grand River Road (this is the road going from the Policestation to the Chiron Building, your apartment), dressed as your mom. Do the Derelict Row part when you have to shut down the antenna in Derelict Row (main mission after you visited your apartment). The Take Make a save before you complete “Cloak & Daggers”. Accept the option to take down O’Malley, go and talk to him. Pick “Cold” and “Listen”. Balls Just throw the basketball through the hoop. FEMA Detention center (1) One time only location! -Blurring the Boundaries Between Man and Machine At the end of the level, don’t go down when Pritchard tells you you need to go to the floor below you. Instead turn left and you come to a cafeteria. It’s in a lvl 2 hackable room, between the 2 toilets if you look on the map (-4F) The Bull Unmissable: Kill Lawrence Barrett Sarif Industries (2) -The Tyranny of Biology Office 25. -The Neural Hub - Design for a Next Generation Office 27. Yes Boss Make a save before talking to David Sarif. Talk to your boss AFTER you had your talk with Pritchard. Choose Refocus ‘till this pops. Don’t forget to go to your office and read new emails about your past or you will miss out on Acquaintances Forgotten and Kevorkian Complex later! POINT OF NO RETURN Make sure you finished all the sidequests in Detroit I, this is your last chance! And once again, make sure you have read your new emails in your office! (You get 1 more chance to find all other eBooks when you return to Detroit II) Shanghai I (6) (5+1 missable) -Understanding Vision (Part 1) Hacker's building, take elevator down, head to main door on your right, 1st hackable apartment on your right. -The Science and Theory behind Cochlear Implants Diamond Chan area, look for stairway going down, 2nd floor apartment. -Invasive Brain Machine Interfaces Diamond Chan area, facing his apartment, turn 180, cross walkway and 1st apartment on the left. -The Use of Neuromuscular Facilitation Systems The Hive, MISTER Tong's office. (Missable if you don't convince the manager to see Tong!) -Optical Enhancement Functionality The Hive, exit MISTER Tong's office, go past bodyguard, look for security cam go up some stairs and enter a security room. -Electrogravitic Technology Applications Alice Garden Pods Area, 2nd floor #143. You have to get this on your 1st visit to the pods! Rotten Business 4th floor of the Hung Hua Hotel right after you land. Talk to Mei Suen. The Fall Make a save after you knocked Diamond Chan down. Drag his body out his room and dump him of the ledge. Reload, plant drugs and complete the quest for “Rotten Business” (incase killing Chan voids Pacifist). TIP: After talking to Mei Suen, go out onto balcony, hop over to the last and pick up the Smart Card, this will save you a tedious trip later. TIP: 1st room on floor 3 in the hotel has a Hive membership card, could save you 1k creds. Darker Shades Go to The Hive and talk to the manager about Tong. Choose Pinpoint ‘till this pops. This is missable, because you can also choose to sneak into The Hive through the sewers, past the gassy area and overhear a conversation which reveals your next objective. You will also miss 1 eBook if you don't get this achievement. Bar Tab Bartender in The Hive. Guardian Angel Make a save after you talked to Jaya and returned to the bartender. Buy her debt for 5000 credits. Shanghai Justice You will run into Malik at the Alice Pods Area. Super Sleuth Make a save before talking to Hong. After you found all evidence in Hong’s apartment, talk to him and pick the following options: · Falsive · Clock · Pregnant · Belltower or LIMB POINT OF NO RETURN Make sure you have finished all the sidequests in Shanghai I, this is your last chance! (You get 1 more chance to find all (if you convinced the manager that is) eBooks in Shanghai when you return to Shanghai II) |
Other technically missable achievements not covered extensively in my guide:
Gun Nut Fully upgrade one of your weapons. I upgraded my Tranquilizer Rifle, it only needs 3 reload upgrades and a targetting upgrade. This was the weapon I used exclusively on my playthrough for Foxiest and Pacifist. The targetting upgrade is for sale before you enter the FEMA Detention Center. Reload 1: Morgue in Police Station Reload 2: Shanghai, sadly I forgot where, it was some locked depot. I think it was in the alley directly west of Hung Hua Hotel. Reload 3: Where you find the eBook Better Than Nature in TYM Hax0r1! Successfully hack 50 devices within the same playthrough. TIP: Go for the red core whenever possible, that’s an instawin! You even get all the goodies. Transhumanist Fully upgrade your first augmentation of choice. Just get a complete a tree when upgrading. Opportunist Perform 50 takedowns within the same playthrough. (Civilians don't count.) Peanuts when going for “Foxiest of Hounds” Consciousness is Over-rated Knock out 100 enemies in a single playthrough. See “Opportunist” you’re kinda halfway there after you got that. Just continue using B and your Tranquilizer Rifle, should be no problem when going for “Foxiest of Hounds” |
The Take10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/f.../site/gp-g.pngGreedy bastard. You accepted O'Malley's blood money and let him go.
during Cloak & Daggers mission |
-Arms (and Legs) for Man - The Structure of Cybernetic Limbs
Needs lvl 5 hacking, 1 floor above O'Malley's room, also has a Praxis Kit (you can get this after FEMA Detention Center mission). Can I get this eBook during my 2nd visit to Detroit? Because I still don't have a level 5 hacking skill. |

Oh, yeah nice. And if it fails, then i'll have to do the whole game all over... Thanks for nothing -_-
|
Thank you too for appreciating my work and reply, even though it wasn't what you demanded.

Thanks for this Rokk, looks quite helpful as this game is pretty big with loads of wrong turns! Keep it up! |
Corporate Warfare is availible upon your 2nd return to China, not your first. Other than that looks like a great guide!
|
The code to the 2nd floor 5 level security door that contains an eBook is 2356. And the code to the storage locker that has a Praxis kit is 3663.

Good job so far rokkyrok. I like the idea that you put everything "in order" since most guides/achievements are totally in disorder.

Question since i'm still in Detroit (just finished the part where you go to Jensen's apartment for the first time) should I make a separate save now or is it possible to come back to city hubs later in the game?
I am asking because I did Motherly Ties, Cloaks and Dagger, Lesser Evil, the Greg Thrope thank you thing, I have looked through the city and hacked everything I could find (except the big room with all the computers/cops in the police station because I didn't want everyone to go hostile on me), got all the secret/hidden weapons (sold the rocket launcher, found stun gun, combat rifle, PEPS....),hacked the satellite prematurely or without a mission to tell me about it (Which came up in the apartment), basically I explored thoroughly (doing foxiest hounds and pacifist this playthrough) BUT I heard that some items are hidden behind walls and other things (i don't have the augmentation to through walls, punch through them, or anything else yet). I plan to play the game over again to do it on hard and get everything I missed. Question is: Is it still Possible for me to get anything I Missed? Can I return later when I have those augmentations? Or is it better that I just do what I missed in my next playthrough? |
Quote:
There are no achievements that require you to have the "punch through walls" augmentation. |
Sarif Manufacturing Plant (2)
-Neural Interface Protocols: The PEDOT Revolution Room near cam/turret, right after you run into a Praxis Kit. To be safe, I suggest putting that point in Move/Throw Heavy Objects, so you can move the turret. I looked everywhere for this. The only real room by the turret is the room that allows you to shut off the camera. Is this where you mean? Also there is a box blocking a vent that allows you access around the turret and you end up behind it. I don't know how you could get a point already to put into Move/Throw Heavy Objects because I'm only 3/4 to my first rank up and I am almost beating that level. Is it a level you come back to? |

For the throw, see darkjay's reply. |

The only augmentation you HAVE to have is Icarus, for an eBook. (and hacking ofcourse) |

I am counting only 6 absolutely non missable achievements, 4 bosses, 1 for beating the game and for your first hack. Maybe 7 if you cannot sneak into Tong's office, i will check that when i get to that part again. You should just start the game if you have it, I'm pretty sure you won't miss anything because I haven't finished yet. |
Can you please be more specific about rhe book in Derilect Row? Is it past the people in the couch, in the big courtyard, what flooe etc..
I've been going everywhere and I just cant find it! Haha I found it! It is on the second floor. It is the room with the smallwindowa looking out into the courtyard. There are 3 guys on patrol. One going back and forth and the other 2 are leaning on something. One of the leaners is leaning on a can. Next to him is the book. |
I really dig the way your setting this up putting the achievements pretty much in the order they are obtained as you play through. I wish more guides/roadmaps were set up this way. Good job so far and good luck finishing.

just took a pic, cos i was just there but you found it i see.
i'll post the pic anyway: http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg819...jpg&res=medium |
People should also be aware there is a current glitch going around with the Gang Members in Detroit, more commonly in DRB members. When you go to knock them out with a Tranq rifle or a stun gun they could end up with skull instead of ZZZs. It's unknown if it effects the achievement if you leave them with skulls but people should be aware of it as a precaution. Thread with details: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/f...t=325796]about

Question - Have you actually gotten the XP book achievement by getting all the books you listed? "offficial" achievement guides are so confusing. Its nice to actually know the damn names..(thanks for that)
EDIT: I found this on one of the "Official" guides posted (they stole the info from the official guide that is) 4) Go to the "Downtown Apartments" and head as far west as you can. You'll find a locked door on the second floor, where the e-book is located. Enter here and you'll see it on a desk. I don't see that in your Detroit List :| |
