In the next room, be careful as you enter to not go too far.. or.. BOOOM!

Hug the wall on the right, hop over the pallets and be safe in the corner.   Make your way through the room until you’re faced with the camera.  Wait for the camera to turn off, then turn towards it.  There is a switch on the wall under it. Just time your movements.

    ‘there are a few waves, nothing too difficult’ – speak for yourself ! incredibly cumbersome trying to get in range to activate the detonators and/or the mortars in anything like enough time, whilst ever more waves of attackers keep coming. Am I the only one who finds this part of the quest incredibly frustrating ?

    • http://unfair.co/ Unfair

      It is possible they’ve altered the mission since I made the guide. However, I didn’t have much issue with the waves. I used mostly the detonators as I found the mortar to require too much time to be effective.

      If you time things right, the detonators can wipe the entire wave out, they don’t even have to be right next to the explosives. Wait till they get just past it a bit, then BOOM!

      I’ll try to run the mission again and see if things have changed since I did the guide.

      • Paragon Lost

        Twice I’ve failed in a row, I was using the mortar at first but they dont die in one blast.. Also the explosives are in only certain areas and have to respawn. By that time they are engaged with the guy your protecting and you have to deal with them. After that you can’t activate the mortar because they are all on you. You need two to do this easily. I’ll try a third time. I’m doing shotgun/hammer bodyguard deck which has good blast/aoe.

    • Grete Hallikvee

      Agreed. This part is proving to be incredibly difficult for me too : /

  • Quailish

    Use the mortar on the large fast-moving waves, and save the detonators for each pair of slow-moving assassins at the end.

    On Tier 3, you can’t just pick up the badge – there is a group of mobs positioned practically on top of it. You have to move around the building, and use the forklift, which will distract the mobs, and allows you to pick up the badge.

    • http://unfair.co/ Unfair

      Or… Kill Them ;)

  • Sammie

    This mission can suck it. My advise, go there with two or more people, one of you run the mortar and the other the detonators. If you have more than two people even better, the rest can just add DPS. Do it once for the credit and never do it again. Feel free to send Funcom a “thank you” for such a fun mission.

  • Njoy69

    Did u know if this mission still work ? We r stuck on tier 4, activate the detonators and can’t access laptop …

    • http://www.facebook.com/derek.solley Derek Solley

      It is broken for me at this point as well

      • Kamiel

        same here

        • norppa

          yeh broken

  • Eeyore_Syndrome

    I left TSW mid december…..was really hoping they’ve fixed broken quests by now…. especially ones on the mose recent issue :(

    This is still a pain in the arse! I killed the first 3 mobs with the detonators, then they started getting past my mortars, and within a few seconds i was totally overrun. I had 6 waves, and i haven’t even seen these ‘final assassin’ dudes. this mission is pants – totally overloaded at the end.
