Step 1 – Goals around Tower
In the first escalation level, you have to kill three targets. Here’s how. If you had to do more for some missions in Hitman 2, you’ll be grateful later for how easily you completed them.
They start in the Dubai Atrium, the location of each stage of this climb. Ignore the golden devils for now. They come into play on the third level.
At the first level, you will first focus on Basant Pai. He’s one of the bathroom attendants at the Black Gold Bar. From the starting point, go up the stairs and turn left at the main entrance. You can’t miss the bar. The restrooms go through large doors behind the crowd.
The trick is to kill your target. There are two workers in the bathroom, and you have to take them both out to make it work. Enter the cabin on the left and distract them by blocking the sink or dirtying the toilet. Then go back to the door and lean Officer 47 against the right wall so he won’t be seen when the NPCs enter.
First, the wrong NPC enters the cabin. Like him, close the door and get him out. Hold his body in the locker room, then back to the wall. The second NPC, your target, then enters the cabin. Kill the target and put his body in the closet.
Take the keyboard these guys drop so you can move more freely in this area. Return to the bathroom and go through the closed door that says Laundry room. Bring in the NPCs and put the event’s securityscape on the shelf.
Your second target is Mahmoud Salman. He’s on the second floor, leaning against the wall on his phone. You can get there by walking up the stairs in front of the garden. It’s the one you go to after dressing up as a vulture in one of the missions in Dubai Story.
The best way to get the target out is to flip a coin to the opposite slope. Then you can sneak up behind him and push him. Or you can kill him from behind and then drag his body to the same closet. Make sure you don’t stand out through the big door.
From here you can see your final destination, Mariam Amir. Look up and to the other side.
You need to know what’s going to happen.
Just sneak up behind them and push them over the rail. When that’s done, choose your favorite exit and exit the mission. There is no time limit, so you can fly in style in a helicopter if you want.
Step 2 – Everyone deserves special treatment
The second phase of this escalation adds three new targets. Plus, you have to kill each target precisely. If you kill the target in any way other than specified, the escalation fails.
They start in the atrium, but instead of toilets, we do maintenance first. Go up the stairs, turn right and enter the garden.
Now jump off the balcony on the right and shake yourself off until you reach the platform. Use the camera to open the windows here and you will see your first target, Oscar Malm, trying to make some lights work by shooting at them.
Unfortunately, there are two NPCs in this room. Waiting behind the equipment boxes of the event, and finally a woman comes to use a laptop nearby. Take her outside and throw her body out the window without anyone noticing. Don’t worry about it. He lands on the platform alone and is not rated as a drummer.
You have to kill the first target with an electrical accident, so grab your screwdriver and get to work. First, the mass must be removed. Then open the water dispenser.
Now, hide by the generator and turn it off. Wait a few seconds for the target to realize something is wrong and turn it back on. He goes to investigate, but dies tragically and completely unexpectedly.
Hide her body in front of the window, then go down the corridor to the right. Go up the stairs, go to the balcony where you see the guard on the phone and take him out. You need his disguise. Throw his body off the balcony you just dropped. He probably won’t die.
You must kill Mahmoud Salman by mistake. As in the first layer, click on the object to draw it on the balcony. All you have to do is apply pressure.
The next target is the one on the balcony in front of Mariam Amir. You have to kill them with an explosion. Go back to where she is, but be careful. There is a guard at the door who will see through your disguise. Be quick as you pass him, or distract him so you are not seen.
You must kill this target with an explosion. But you don’t need propane. We use golf instead.
Go around Mariam’s corner and you’ll see another guard. Take her and put her body in a locker. Pick up the janitor key they dropped and run to the end of this corridor. The door, which is normally closed, is now open.
The exploding golf ball is here in the toolbox on the floor. Pick it up, go back to Mariam and throw it to her. Make sure he is far away, because the explosion is big and can injure you.
The guard we warned you about earlier was drawn to the explosion. Take him and hide his body so you can get to work quickly, and get the key card from the apartment.
From here we are on top of the world. Go back into the corridor you went through to find Mariam, then turn right. You look for the penthouse door on the left. Use the keypad to unlock it and go up the stairs.
At the top of the stairs, take the first door on the left. There’s someone here who organizes the ingredients. Take it out and store it in the freezer. You need his disguise, so take this. Now go back to the shelves and get the rat poison.
Put on your new disguise and go to the other room. Here’s your next target, Roberto Franculitta, boiling. There are guards everywhere, but no one will recognize you as long as you behave.
From time to time you will see your target and the guard come to the counter for a glass of water. Your goal will be first. When he does, stand in front of his water bottle. Wait until your target turns his back on you and the guard before you leave. Only then can you poison the water.
Follow your target to the bathroom. He must be killed by drowning. You know what to do.
Our ultimate goal is simple. That’s Bazant Pai, the toilet attendant. The only problem with his death is that it has to be done with a fire axe. Fortunately, there is one in the next stairwell.
Go to the maintenance ladder, which is a stone’s throw from the destination. Take the fire axe and go through the laundry room to the bathroom.
I’ll have to throw a fire axe into the laundry room to avoid suspicion. You can then get rid of the first employee by distracting him, like you did in the first level. When they’re out of range, your target goes to investigate. Return the axe, follow the target and finish him off.
As with level 1, you have the luxury of choosing an exit.
Step 3 – Forget everything you have learned
The last level before climbing is absolutely insane. You must kill all five Devil’s Coat targets with the DAK Gold Shell. You’ll see the jacket as soon as you start the mission. It’s the same as a level one hallucination. But this time you can’t change your disguise.
As for the golden blanket of the DAK, look to the left of the atrium. You will see the devil kneeling before you and gesturing something. Matching DAK gold box and gold crate for storage. That way, you can carry your gun with you wherever you go without being noticed.
The first target to destroy is Bazant Pye in the bathroom. Run inside, throw the suitcase into the cabin and go through the bypass. Eliminate the first employee and shoot Pye in the head.
The next target is Oscar Malm. Run to the garden, take the balcony and make noise where he is working on the lights. It is even better to discreetly remove the woman and hide the two bodies. There’s no need to make a scene.
Your next target should be Mariam Amir. Go down the hallway and up the stairs, as on the second level. Take out the guard with his cell phone and throw his body away. Again: He probably won’t die. Directly across from your current position is the conference room. Get in there.
You can see Mariam through the windows of this room. Shoot him in the head.
No one goes down the hall outside the conference room. Go down the stairs to the level where Mahmoud Salman is still leaning against the wall and talking on the phone, shoot him and go up the stairs. It won’t bother anybody.
From here, go to the penthouse. Instead of running through the corridor, jump onto the balcony where you saw the guard on the cell phone and slip as far as you can along the ledge to the penthouse. There will be another platform where you can take shelter in the hallway.
You have to take out the guard who could see through the coat on the second level. He has an apartment card. Take it, open the door and find your way back to the room with the shelves. You have yet to eliminate the man in this room. He’ll do fine in the freezer.
Now you have to wait at the kitchen door. If you look bad, everyone will notice you. Wait until the guard has left with the drinking water. Then walk out the door, get a bullet in your head and flee down the stairs.
The guards can follow you, so when you are at the end of the corridor, you should find a hiding place and stay there for a while. When peace is restored, find the most dramatic way out and put an end to this madness. We love the paratrooper.
