Introduction:

 

Welcome, Agent 47s of XBA! Here is the long awaited and critically acclaimed HD Collection of the Hitman franchise. The games might not have aged too well, but they are by no means bad and they were revolutionary for their time (2002 and 2004 for SA and Contracts respectively). The achievements center around Silent Assassin and Contracts, meaning there are no new achievements for Blood Money (although it comes with the physical collection as a second disc). I highly recommend you start with Hitman 2, as it is, in my opinion, harder than Contracts, and it takes longer. The games themselves are tasking, and will require a good amount of patience and concentration to complete. Without further ado, let's get right into it.

 

Step 1: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

 

Step 1a: Normal Playthrough

 

I highly recommend you start your experience on normal so you can get the hang of the games mechanics of the game as well as how to do get the silent assassin rating in the various levels in the game. On this playthrough, you will be collecting every weapon and completing the various miscellaneous achievements. You have to do a normal playthrough anyway, since the difficulties don't stack. So you may as well do all of your miscellaneous achievements on this playthrough to minimize frustration. Take note that one of the weapons, "M4 Rifle", can only be obtained through obtaining five consecutive silent assassins in a row. More info on that will be listed in the guide and video links will be available.

 

Step 1b: Expert and Professional playthroughs.

 

On these difficulties, the game becomes much more of a challenge and revolves around using your critical thinking skills to approaching a level. On Expert, you are given two saves from the get-go (you still get the extra saves in levels when they're scripted like in Tubeway Torpedo and Shogun Showdown). On Professional, you get none except for the scripted ones in the aforementioned missions. While on Professional, be sure to get the five silent assassins for the achievement, which will stack with the expert and normal achievements for getting five silent assassins as well. These do not have to be consecutive, and it can be done on the same level over and over for the achievement.

 

NOTE: The difficulty achievements in Hitman 2: Silent Assassin will most likely NOT stack. They are supposed to, but they are glitched, which means you'll have to do three playthroughs.

 

Step 2: Hitman: Contracts

 

Step 2a: Normal Playthrough

 

On this playthrough, you will not only want to learn the levels as well as how to approach them, but you will need to collect every weapon, which entails earning SA on every mission. You'll also want to knock out every miscellaneous achievement as well, since all of the non-difficulty achievements are quite difficult and potentially incredibly frustrating on professional. You can check which weapons you haven't gotten yet in the Training Room (accessed at the main menu). As mentioned above about earning silent assassin on every level, I highly recommend you save yourself the time and frustration by using a video guide, which will be linked to every level in the game. The guy in the video is helpful and has a good commentary to boot. Implying he's doing every level on professional, earning a silent assassin rating.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Taking a weapon with you and leaving it in a mission will remove it from your weapon wall. Meaning you'll have to recollect (or re-earn if it's a silent assassin awarded weapon) the weapon and finish the level with it in your hands in order for it to reappear in your training room. I will remind you of this on each of the weapons achievements to ensure you don't leave a weapon in a level. To be safe, just don't take any weapons with you (except for your silverballers if you are going to gun you're way through the level).

 

Step 2b: Professional Playthrough

 

There's no reason to play on expert here as the difficulty achievements do stack. Professional difficulty is the usual, with no saves, smarter enemies, and less health. You will need five SA awards for the achievement, but you can keep replaying the same mission four more times for it. More details will be listed in the guide. If you ever get stuck, which you most likely will, refer to the video guides linked below. You can be more lax about getting silent assassin, meaning you can gun your way through some parts of levels if you're spotted if you want to, but be careful enough so you don't have to restart the whole level.

 

Hitman: Blood Money (OPTIONAL)

 

If you bought the HD collection as a physical copy, than the fourth installment of the franchise, Hitman: Blood Money, will come as a separate disc. If you bought the game digitally, then it will not be included. Unfortunately, there are no new achievements for it in the collection, so there's no reason to replay the game in terms of achievements, if you already played and completed the game like I did. However, it will unlock the achievements for the game as a standalone completion, so I will link that achievement guide below.

 

Hitman: Blood Money Achievement Guide

 

Conclusion

 

At this point, you should have everything achievement in the game. I will provide links to videos for each mission to obtain silent assassin on. If you are missing any achievements, boot up the game and refer to the guide for further assistance. Hitman HD Collection is one of the best HD collections out there and will quench your thirst for Hitman for a bunch of hours. If you like stealth games or Hitman at all, then you owe it to yourself to play Hitman the way it's supposed to be! Congrats on your hard earned completion!

Silent Assassin: 5 Silent Assassin ratings awarded on the Professional difficulty

 

In order to obtain silent assassin in Hitman 2, you must complete the level with the following.

  • No more than ONE enemy killed except for the target(s).
  • No witnesses to your actions. You can be seen doing trivial stuff, you just can't be seen shooting someone or strangling them, etc.
  • No more than one shot fired. There are exceptions in certain levels, but for the vast majority of the levels, the maximum you can do is one silenced shot to the head of a target.
  • No more than ONE alert. A body being found or when the game gives you the note "guards looking for suspicious x (x being the identity of your disguise)" counts as an alert.

 

You are able to replay the same mission five times for the achievement, and this does stack with the other achievements for getting five silent assassins in a row. Hence, I would recommend the first mission "Anathema", as it is very quick and simple provided you know what to do. Below is a link to a video showing exactly how to get SA in every level.

Silent Assassin: All firearms collected and displayed in the Hideout

 

This achievement pertains to every firearm in the game, rather than just a specific category. The only weapons in the game that don't have their own achievement are the submachine guns, so they will be listed below.

There are eight melee weapons in total. Although, you only need to find six, since the Fiberwire and the Anesthetic are a permanent part of 47's inventory. The other weapons names and locations are as follows.

  • Kitchen Knife - Found in a lot of places. It's inside the parcel that you find in the very first mission "The Gontranno Sanctuary". It is found inside the kitchen in "Anathema". It's found in the lower level of the building where the chef is in "Invitation to a Party". It can also be found in "Tracking Hayamoto", in the room with the fugu fish.

Silent Assassin: All hand guns collected and displayed in the Hideout

There are seven handguns available throughout the game. Their names and locations are as follows.

  • Silverballers - Permanently part of 47's inventory. Simply finish a level with them in your inventory and it'll count.
  • Silverballers SD - Obtain a silent assassin rating on a mission.
  • 9mm Pistol - Found in almost every mission carried by your standard guard. The earliest you can get this is in "Anathema" where it is carried by just about every guard.
  • 9mm Pistol SD - If you're playing on normal, it'll automatically be added to your inventory on the "Anathema" mission. It can also be found in the weapons locker in "St. Petersburg Stakeout" as well as carried by guards in a lot of missions.
  • Revolver - There are only a few of these spread throughout the game. It is carried by your target in "Anathema" and it is carried by almost every bodyguard on "The Jacuzzi Job".
  • .54 Pistol - Carried by a soldier on one of the roadblocks in "St. Petersburg Stakeout". A more surefire way to get this is by picking it up off of the Spetznaz agent in "Invitation to a Party".
  • Deagle .50 - Found in a few different missions. In "Anathema", it's found in the study. In "Tunnel Rat", it is carried by Yusseff Hussien (your target). It is dropped by Agent Smith on "Temple City Ambush" (don't kill him, he'll set it down on the table). Lastly, it is carried by FSB agents on the "St. Petersburg Revisited" level.
  • .22 Pistol - This pistol can only be found on the "Shogun Showdown" level. It is on display in the museum (you have to go here as part of an objective to get the missile guidance system).

Upon finishing the mission with your last pistol on hand, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/+CVQkQ==.jpg All heavy weapons collected 15:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: All heavy weapons collected and displayed in the Hideout

 

There is only one heavy weapon in the game, and it can only be found in one mission. The M60 machine gun can be found in the mission "Tunnel Rat" being carried by some of the guards in the Lietenant's HQ.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/-Ye7aA==.jpg All assault rifles collected 15:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: All assault rifles collected and displayed in the Hideout

 

There are only two assault rifles in the game. Their name and locations are as follows.

  • AK-74 Assault Rifle - Found in a lot of missions. The earliest you can get it is in the "St. Petersburg Stakeout" mission, where it is being carried by almost every guard.
  • M4 Rifle - This weapon is obtained through performance, rather than physically finding it. To get it, you need to earn 5 silent assassin ratings in a row. This time, you can't simply replay the same mission 5 times. Hence, I would recommend the first five missions ("Anathema" - "Invitation to a Party"). Refer to the video links above for a video tutorial on those missions.

Upon obtaining your last assault rifle or finishing the mission with it in your possession, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/-GdD+w==.jpg All shotguns collected 15:gsicon:

There are a total of 3 shotguns in the game. Their names and locations are as follows.

  • SP12 - This weapon can be found in three missions. It can be found at the first agency pickup in the "Temple City Ambush" mission. It can also found being wielded by some of the guards in "St. Petersburg Revisited". Lastly, it is wielded by Sergei Zavorotko on the last mission "Redemption at Gontranno".
  • Sawn-Off Shotgun - Obtained through high performance rather than physically finding it. Earn two silent assassins (doesn't matter if it's consecutive and it can be the same mission twice) to obtain this shotgun.
  • Double-Barrelled Shotgun - This weapon can only be found in the mission "Anathema" being wielded by a guard outside the mansion at the front door.

Upon earning/finishing the mission with your last shotgun on hand, the achievement will unlock.

Silent Assassin: All sniper rifles collected and displayed in the Hideout

 

There are six sniper rifles in the game. Their names and locations are shown below.

  • SVD Sniper - Found in a few different missions. The earliest being "St. Petersburg Stakeout", at the agency pickup, in the locker 137 on the right as you start the level. It can also be found in the "Kirov Park Meeting" mission and the "Murder at the Bazaar" mission marked by the agency pick up sign and a point of interest respectively.
  • W2000 Sniper - Found being wielded by a sniper on the balcony in the "Invitation to a Party" mission. It can also be found in the mission "St. Petersburg Revisited", being wielded by your target, Agent 17.
  • W2000 Custom Rifle - This variation of the W2000 actually has its own spot on the wall in your hideout, which makes it a requirement. It can be found in the missions "Hidden Valley" and "At the Gates" wielded by the snipers. You'll have to kill them and have them fall out of the window for you to pick them up. It can also be found in the last mission, but it didn't save in the hideout for me when I did it on the last level.
  • M195 Sniper - Only found at the agency pick up in the mission "The Motorcade Interception" just keep it in your hands after you snipe the target and head to the exit, which is right below the sniping position.

Silent Assassin: A mission has been completed with precisely 47 kills

 

I recommend doing this after you get the M60, as it is basically a one hit kill on any enemy and has good range. Then, load up the mission "Basement Killing" and kill everybody there, keeping a mental tally of how many people you've killed.

 

NOTE: Everyone counts for this achievement except for targets. Police, civillians, etc. all count towards your total, but targets don't, meaning you will technically be killing 48 people.

Simply walk up to anybody in a mission, pull out your gun, aim for their head, and fire. Upon pulling the trigger, the achievement will unlock.

Contracts: 5 Silent Assassin ratings awarded on Professional difficulty

 

The requirements for SA in Contracts are a little different than in Hitman 2. The same rules apply, no more than two ENEMIES (no innocents whatsoever, but you can use anesthetic on them) can be killed, no covers blown, no more than one alert, etc. Below are links to a video walkthrough for every mission on professional, earning a SA at the end of them.

 

 

Full credit goes to "Centerstrain01" for the incredibly helpful videos. Use them to help you get SA on each mission.

 

You can replay the same mission five times for the achievement, but you have to get silent assassin on every mission for the weapons anyway, so refer to the links when hunting for the weapons.

 

Upon earning your fifth silent assassin rating, the achievement will unlock. This will also unlock the achievements for getting five silent assassin ratings on the other difficulties as well.

Contracts: Completed professional difficulty

 

Professional difficulty in Contracts is a little easier than its counter part, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. However, the same basic principles still apply.

  • No saves (with the exception of the "Lee Hong Assassination" level after you rescue Agent Smith).
  • Limited health.
  • Enemies are much smarter.

 

The difficulty achievements in this game do stack, meaning you can get all of them in one go on professional. However, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND DOING A NORMAL PLAYTHROUGH FOR THE WEAPONS. Either way, when you finish the mission "Hunter and Hunted" on professional, the achievement will unlock.

 

NOTE: The principles of normal and expert are exactly the same as Hitman 2: Silent Assassin.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-jvjqk=.jpg All firearms collected 45:gsicon:

Contracts: All firearms collected and displayed in the training room

 

This achievement pertains to every firearm in the game, but since there's no achievement pertaining to collecting every sub-machine gun, they will be listed below. There are seven, and their names and locations are as follows.

 

  • Micro-Uzi - Found in a few missions, but only the ones in China. You can easily get this during the mission "Lee Hong Assassination" where it is carried by a lot of the guards.
  • Micro-Uzi Silenced - Easily obtained in the mission "The Wang Fou Incident" being carried by the two targets near the edge of the map.
  • Micro-Uzi (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "Meat King's Party" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide linked above for how to do this.
  • Micro-Uzi Silenced (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "Lee Hong Assassination" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide linked above for how to do this.
  • MP5 - Only found in one mission "Hunter and Hunted" being carried by most of the SWAT members.
  • MP5 Silenced - Earned by completing the mission "Slaying a Dragon" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide linked above for more information.
  • AUG-SMG - Found in a few missions, but the earliest you can get this is in the "Asylum Aftermath" being carried by some of the SWAT members. It can also be obtained in the mission "Bjarkov Bomb" being carried by Fuch's personal bodyguard and in the mission "Rendezvous at Rotterdam" at the firing range in the basement.
  • MP9 - Found in one mission "Meat King's Party" being carried by most of the guards.

Once you've finished the mission with your last firearm on hand, the achievement will unlock.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Taking a weapon into a mission and leaving it there will remove it from your weapon wall, meaning you'll need to recollect (or re-earn if it's a silent assassin rewarded weapon) the weapon and finish the level with it again for it to go back on your weapon wall.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-rOhxw=.jpg All melee weapons found 10:gsicon:

Contracts: You have found all melee weapons

 

There are twelve melee weapons available in the game, but you only need to collect ten, because the fiberwire and syringe are in your inventory at the start of every level. The ten weapon's names and locations are as follows.

 

  • Fire Poker - Found in two missions. In "The Bjarkov Bomb", it is by the fireplace in the mess hall where Fabian Fuchs eats the soup. In "Beldingford Manor", it is found inside the building near the fireplace.
  • Pool Cue - Found in three missions, near a pool table each time. In "Beldingford Manor", it is found by the pool table upstairs. In "Rendezvous at Rotterdam", it is found by the pool table in the bar. Lastly, it is found in "Deadly Cargo", located in the second floor of the bar.
  • Shovel - Found in only one mission "Beldingford Manor" at the center of the hedge maze.
  • Stun Gun - Only found in one mission "Asylum Aftermath" being carried by the nurses, as well as on the ground in the display room next to a dead inmate.
  • Kitchen Knife - Found in a lot of missions. The earliest you can get this is in the mission "Asylum Aftermath", on the ground next to the dead inmate in front of the elevator on the second floor.
  • Meat Cleaver - Found in two missions. It is carried by the butcher upstairs where the murder proof is in the mission "Meat King's Party". You can also find it in the mission "Lee Hong Assassination" being carried by the cook in the kitchen and in the basement.
  • Meat Hook - Found in two missions. You will begin the mission "Meat King's Party" with it in your inventory and you can find it in the room where your secondary target is in the basement of "Rendezvous at Rotterdam".
  • Bolt Gun - Only found in "Meat King's Party" on a table in the first room to the right of the hallway of the main butchery room.
  • Chinese Sword - Only found in one mission "Lee Hong Assassination" being carried by your target Lee Hong.
  • Pillow - (yes, this is actually required for the achievement) only found in one mission "Beldingford Manor". It is on the bed where your target and his wife sleep and on the bed where the hunting party sleeps.

NOTE: You don't need to finish the level with these weapons in your possession. You just need to pick them up once for it to count, however you do need to finish the level in general for it to save that you picked it up.

Contracts: All hand guns collected and displayed in the training room

 

There are twelve handguns available throughout the game, but you only need to find eleven, as your Silverballers are already a part of your inventory from the start, unless you decide to not take it with you on a level. I will list the other eleven that you must earn to get the achievement.

 

  • Silverballer Silenced (Single) - Only found in one level "The Meat King's Party", where it is carried by the lawyer, one of your targets in the opium lounge. When you kill him, pick it up off his body.
  • Silverballers Silenced (Dual-Wielded) - Complete the mission "The Bjarkov Bomb" with a silent assassin rating. See the video linked above for how to do this.
  • CZ2000 - Found in a few missions. The earliest you can get this weapon is during the mission "Meat King's Party" being carried by a lot of the guards. It can also be easily obtained in "Rendezvous at Rotterdam" being carried by a lot of the guards.
  • CZ2000 (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "Asylum Aftermath" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide above for how to do this.
  • GK17 - Found in many different missions. The earliest place to get this is in "Beldingford Manor" where it is carried by many of the guards.
  • GK17 (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "The Seafood Massacre" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide linked above for how to do this.
  • Magnum 500 - Found in a few missions. The earliest you can get this is in the mission "Rendezvous in Rotterdam" being carried by some of the guards. It can also be found in the missions "The Seafood Massacre" and "Deadly Cargo" being carried by the police chief and your target respectively.
  • Magnum 500 (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "Beldingford Manor" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide above for more information.
  • Gold Desert Eagle - Found in only three missions. In "Beldingford Manor" it is carried by Alistair Beldingford's bodyguard. In "Rendezvous at Rotterdam", it is carried by your target. Lastly, it is found in "The Lee Hong Assassination" being carried by Zun (Hong's bodyguard).
  • Gold Desert Eagle (Dual-Wielded) - See "Double Eagle" below for how to get this weapon.
  • SG220.S - Found in a few missions. The earliest you can get this is in the level "The Bjarkov Bomb" found on the desk of the commander, your target. It can also be easily obtained in the mission "Traditions of the Trade" on the table in the hotel room where your target is taking a shower.
  • SG220.S (Dual-Wielded) - Earned by completing the mission "Traditions of the Trade" with a silent assassin rating. See the video guide above for how to do this.

After finishing the level with your remaining handgun(s) on hand, the achievement will unlock.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Taking a weapon into a mission and leaving it there will remove it from your weapon wall, meaning you'll need to recollect (or re-earn if it's a silent assassin rewarded weapon) the weapon and finish the level with it again for it to go back on your weapon wall.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-6MlHY=.jpg All heavy weapons collected 10:gsicon:

Contracts: All heavy weapons collected and displayed in the training room

 

There are only two heavy weapons in Hitman: Contracts. Their names and locations are as follows.

 

  • M60 Light Machine Gun - Found in a few missions. In "Deadly Cargo", it is carried by the squad member in the helicopter. In "Slaying a Dragon", it is found on the Blue Lotus Member in the helicopter. Lastly, it is found in the weapons cache in "The Lee Hong Assassination" (the one to the right of the second elevator in the basement that takes you to the mansion).
  • Minigun - See "Minigun" for more information.

Upon finishing the mission with the remaining heavy weapon on hand, the achievement will unlock.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Taking a weapon into a mission and leaving it there will remove it from your weapon wall, meaning you'll need to recollect (or re-earn if it's a silent assassin rewarded weapon) the weapon and finish the level with it again for it to go back on your weapon wall.

  • PGM Sniper Rifle - Only found in one mission "Hunter and Hunted" being wielded by a sniper on the roof of the building across the street. If you are having trouble with this, use this
    for a great way to get the gun with minimal issue. Credit to "sgg19847" for the video.
  • PGM Sniper Rifle (Silenced) - Complete the mission "Hunter and Hunted" with a silent assassin rating. Refer to the video links above for how to do this.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-+Kic0=.jpg 1st Kill 10:gsicon:

Contracts: A successful kill has been performed

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-5qcV4=.jpg 47 kills in a mission 45:gsicon:

Contracts: A mission has been completed with precisely 47 kills

 

I recommend doing this in the very first mission "Asylum Aftermath". Keep a mental note of how many people you've killed, but make saves periodically. Before you leave in the car, make a save. Then finish the level, if it's too high, reload one of your saves and leave the remainder alive from before. If it's less, do what you did before but kill more people to get to that 47 tally.

 

Upon finishing the level with precisely 47 kills, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-1FLvI=.jpg Headshot 15:gsicon:

Contracts: A successful headshot has been performed

 

Simply aim at a persons head and pull the trigger for the achievement.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-9kJ0c=.jpg Killed the wrong guy 10:gsicon:

Contracts: An innocent person has been killed

 

Kill anyone but a target for the achievement to unlock. You'll almost certainly unlock this without even trying.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-6E39Q=.jpg Poisonous 15:gsicon:

Contracts: You poisoned a victim

 

There are a few levels where you must poison your target(s) in order to receive a silent assassin rating or to stealthily proceed. The missions that involve poisoning the target are listed below.

  • Bjarkov Bomb - In the kitchen in the mess hall you'll find a bottle of laxatives on the table. Poison the soup when nobody is looking (cook doesn't matter as he is your agency contact) and wait for Fabian Fuchs to eat it.
  • Beldingford Manor - In one of the bedrooms you'll find a vial of poison. Sneak into the father's room when he isn't there and poison the milk. Hide and wait for him to drink it, killing him. In the same mission, sneak down to the basement and poison the whiskey. When the butler brings up a serving of whiskey, your target will drink it and die.
  • Seafood Massacre - In one of the sewer entrances, you'll find a vial of rat poison. Pick it up and head into the basement of the restaurant (there's a staircase from the outside). Turn off the gas machine, causing the chef to come down. Neutralize him however you wish and take his key. Head up the stairs and around the corner into the kitchen. When the doors close, poison the food and place the triad amulet on the plate (found on the Red Triad Negotiator target's corpse after death). Place it on the counter and ring the bell. When the bartender takes the food to the target, they'll eat it and die instantly.
  • Lee Hong Assassination - In the bar, there will be a bottle of laxatives behind the counter. Take it and go to the basement to pick up a chef's disguise. Head back up to the kitchen (left out of the elevator hallway, then the far door on the right) and poison the soup. Then take it to Lee Hong's table, where his bodyguard will eat it, causing him to run away to the bathroom (your chance to kill Hong).

Upon doing any of these listed above, the achievement will unlock.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-smNC0=.jpg Firey Fire 15:gsicon:

Contracts: You used explosives on a victim

 

On the third mission "Bjarkov Bomb", you'll be tasked with blowing up a submarine. Pick up the explosives from the room on the ship with your target, or pick up a nuclear engineer disguise from the building across from the sub and pick up the explosives from inside the sub. Then go outside and go down the latter. Circle the sub and look for a prompt to place the bombs. Once all three are placed, back away and blow it up with the bomb remote control. Upon blowing it up, the achievement will unlock.

Silent Assassin: Obtained a katana from a ninja

 

During the missions "At the Gates" and "Shogun Showdown" you might notice that there are ninjas perched up on the wooden beams overhead. You must make them hostile for them to draw their katana. After this, you must kill them to pick up the katana. Upon picking up the katana, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-1+XEw=.jpg Call the caddy 45:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: Killed 18 people using the golf club

 

The Golf Club is only found on the "Anathema" mission. It is found in the targets bedroom besides his bed. After obtaining the weapon, you must proceed to kill 18 people. I highly recommend you do this on a low difficulty, as the guards will shoot at you when they see you with the golf club.

 

NOTE: The kills stack between missions, meaning you can get seven kills in one mission and then eleven in another and it'll still count for the achievement.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-9fVfk=.jpg Humanist 20:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: Successfully used anesthetic

 

In order to use anesthetic, you must equip it and go into sneak mode with :lbbut:, then you must pull :rtbut: when you are behind an enemy. Upon successfully doing the aforementioned actions, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-6-rWo=.jpg Jack the Ripper 20:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: Killed using all three knives: scalpel, kitchen and combat knife

 

The achievements description is misleading. You must kill three enemies with all three knives in one mission, meaning you can't get a kill with the combat knife in one mission, a kitchen knife kill in another, and a scalpel kill in another. Refer to "All melee weapons collected" for more information on where to find these weapons.

 

After taking all three of the weapons with you and getting a kill with each weapon in one level, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-2YuWQ=.jpg Redrum 20:gsicon:

Silent Assassin: Killed using the fire axe

 

The fireaxe is a melee weapon that is only found in two missions ("Basement Killing" and "Graveyard Shift"). It is wielded by firefighters and there is one laying on the ground across the room from a disguise in the firemen's quarters. In "Graveyard Shift", it is found in the eastern guards' quarters. Upon killing an enemy with it, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-rGzL4=.jpg Double Eagle 10:gsicon:

Contracts: You picked up the Gold Desert Eagle Dual

 

See "Minigun" below for more info.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-jnxQs=.jpg Minigun 10:gsicon:

Contracts: You picked up the minigun

 

The Minigun and the Dual Golden Desert Eagles can both be found in the "Asylum Aftermath" mission. However, you must beat the game first and acquire the Ort Meyer Key off of Lee Hong's desk in the "Wang Fou Incident" mission.

 

In order to get the keycard, you must head to the mission "Wang Fou Incident". Proceed through the mission however you want, but during the mission, take the elevator to the basement. Head to the second elevator by following the path to the right to the end. Take the elevator to the mansion. The room here will be pitch black, but it can be negated by equipping your night-vision goggles in your inventory. Head up the stairs and go to the right once up there. You might notice a room with the light on. This is the room with the desk that has the keycard. Pick up the keycard off the desk and FINISH THE LEVEL. It won't be in your inventory if you quit right after getting the card!

 

After getting the card and finishing the level with it in your possession, load up the first mission "Asylum Aftermath". At the start, after following the path of dead clones, you'll open a door and see a malfunctioning turret flashing right over your head. There are two doors. The one on the right will lead you to the hallway with the patient who is wielding the minigun. Kill him and pick it up for the "Minigun" achievement.

 

As for the Desert Eagles, they are down the stairs after you go through the mirrored corridor. Go down the stairs and open the door to see them lying right there on the ground. Pick them up for this achievement.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Although the achievements only require you to pick up the weapons, you have to finish the level with them in your possession so they count towards their corresponding achievements. The Desert Eagles aren't bad since they can be concealed, but the minigun can't, for obvious reasons. Walk through the level and kill any enemy you see provided they get in your way. Then make a beeline for the exit car with the minigun in your hands and it'll be added to your training room.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-+Aj3g=.jpg Floater 10:gsicon:

Contracts: You drowned someone

 

There is only one place in the game to do this, and that is in the "Traditions of the Trade". One of your targets will be in a swimming pool. Sneak past the guard or kill him silently and then sneak behind the target with the Fiberwire, and upon pulling :rtbut:, 47 will hold him underwater. After the cutscene ends, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-5gd+s=.jpg Termination 45:gsicon:

Contracts: You retrieved the SPAS-12 from the florist

 

The SPAS-12 is a hidden shotgun in the level "Traditions of the Trade". To get it, you must first pick up the item named "Diana's Note" (to your left at the start of the mission on the ground). Then when you get inside, go up the stairs to the left and through the door. Talk to the bartender and he'll leave. Then go behind the desk and through the doorway. Go through the door in this room and you'll see a box that looks like a present on the table. Pick up the box. Once you've picked up the box, interact with it at the inventory screen to make 47 open the box. Once the box has been opened and you're holding your shiny new SPAS-12, the achievement will unlock.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2540/5-xBfl4=.jpg Ghost Buster 45:gsicon:

Contracts: You killed the ghost

 

 

The ghost is an NPC that is found in the mission "Traditions of the Trade". When you get into the hotel, go to the door on the right in the lobby. Wait for the guard to leave, then pick the lock. Follow the hallway until you get to a dark corridor. You should see a ghostly figure, if you don't see him, run outside and check again. You have to be quick, and he can only be killed with the fiberwire, so you'll have to run behind him before he disappears, press :rtbut: and then 47 will kill the ghost. Once 47 stand up after strangling the ghost, the achievement will unlock.

 

Again, if you mess up, you don't need to restart the whole mission. Simply run outside and go back to the corridor to get the ghost to respawn.
