Any way to exit the Sarif building during the riot? *Possible spoilers*
I'm trying to go for a pacifist run but saving Malik is damn near impossible without a stun gun, as I can see from the videos. I don't have one though, because I've never needed it.. that is until now. So is there any way to get out of there, to go outside and buy myself one? If there is anyone who even sells it.

You really don't need a stun gun. How many energy cells do you have purchased (and how many Praxis available)? And what's your supply of candy bars looking like?
INSANE Jun 11, 2014 @ 4:44pm 
Supplies are scarce, I'm afraid. 1 bar, 1 pack and 2 jars. 4 Praxis available. Right now, have 4 cells, 3 of which are full.

Also, scanning the building for extra at the moment.

3 bars, 2 packs and 2 jars now. Also, I found a stun gun and a ton of other stuff. I regret picking it all up though. Is it safe to drop them somewhere and pick the up later? Will I be returning to the Sarif building?

you could also save her as a pacifist only using Jensen as a TAKEDOWN MACHINE)) I did it in the original DXHR: good luck:bird:

Thanks for the input! I did manage to do it in like 10 tries or so, after watching how other people did it on Youtube and experimenting with their patterns. Boy, did it feel good when I finally succeeded! :batarang:

Got a question- do you get pacifist even though you used stun gun or that long range stun sniper rifle?
DrMoodyBlue Jun 13, 2014 @ 12:47pm 
Yes, it is possible to do it with a stun gun or tranquilizer rifle, but be careful--some of the hits can be lethal (possibly a bug--I try to "justify" them in-game as situations where a person has a cardiac arrest in reaction to the stun). So, save often. When someone is killed using these weapons (rather than "asleep"), go back to the previous save and do a non-lethal takedown.

With as screwd as the game is, It's a crap shoot. The ai's as likely to die from your darts as be stunned. Way to go, Devs. :P

Oh snap, bet headshot do count as those non-nonlethal shots? :P

+ Do I get ghost or whatever its called achievement for completing the game without any alarms if eg. there are 2 guys talking to each other and I stun from a distance one of them which makes the second alarmed? I mean Im not detected as in hostile but the enemy knows sth is wrong.

Sorry for dumb question but yeah, Internet is full of everything and nothing

You should be able to get the achievement if no alarms are sounded. Note that enemies can be alarmed, even hostile, same with cameras and turrets (I think?). As long as no enemy reaches for a panel to sound the alarm, you should be fine.

Oh okay, thank you sir.

If you look at the Wiki and go through the achievements you can find the requirements needed for the enemies to sound alarms, or how they are sounded. The Smooth Operator Bonus (beat a section without triggering an alarm) has all the info about triggering alarms in the game, and how to avoide it (go to the link too since it has a long list of strategies after this stuff along with more detail in what does like enemies seeing dead bodies):

http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Smooth_Operator

Events that cancel Smooth Operator (ie. trigger alarms)
1. Alarm panel
-Activated by a human enemy or a civilian
2. Camera
-Spotting the player (showing as Alarmed or Hostile on radar)
-Spotting a body (showing as Alarmed or Hostile on radar)
-Destroyed by a weapon/explosion. Note that EMP explosion doesn't count and can disable a camera safely and permanently.
3. Laser grid
-Triggered by the player
-Triggered by an object
-Laser emitter getting damaged. Unlike cameras laser emitters will trigger an alarm if destroyed by EMP explosion. However, a single shot from stun gun will disable them temporarily for 10 seconds without any repercussions.
4. Computer/Security hub/Dedicated terminal/Alarm panel
-Player failing a hack

-------------------------------------------------------
Events that do NOT affect Smooth Operator

1. Any action that cancels Ghost bonus. Meaning that player can be seen and shot at — as long as human enemies don't get to an alarm panel Smooth Operator (and consequently the Foxiest of the Hounds) won't be affected.

2. Scripted alarms (Sarif Plant, Tai Yong Medical Penthouse, Singapore)
3. Bots and turrets spotting the player, whether they show as "suspicious" or "hostile" on radar
4. Cameras briefly spotting the player (showing as "suspicious" on radar)

Like I said, look at the strategies on that link. Enemies will usually examine bodies first and give you time to neutralize them. If they are stunned the enemy will jsut wake them up I THINK, but not sound an alarm, but I can't remember for sure.

Where did you find the stun gun?
