Mission 42 is IMPOSSIBLE!!!
I mean, am I missing something? Surely there's a trick to this Mission. It can't be about fighting fire with fire, nor does it seem like there's any room for stealth..so just tell me, is there a trick? I've spent 3-4 hours now getting past it and no way anything's working.

Wrong mission I think you talk about bro!

Use quiet
42 is the EXTREEEEEEMEEEEE!!!!! version of the confrontation with the Skulls after the chopper crash, right? If so, and you don't mind the rank, I found the easiest way to deal with it is equip the optic cammo -sorry is this is not the exact name, I don't have access to the game right now-, select Quiet with the most powerful rifle she has -again, don't remember its name-, hide and let her do her thing.
Climb on top of hangar nearby where bourder throwing never hits. All you have to worry is stone explosion and Skulls that warp near you on that spot. That will make things easy.

I used D walker and mowed them down. Just watch out for the smoke clouds.

The tanks don't kill you in 1 hit if you've got a maxed battle dress. You can still die fast though, took me 3-4 tries before I won.

When I posted it I understood that I went full ♥♥♥♥♥♥ but in mission 42 go on the roof of the house with a control tower and shoot them with anything you got

Interesting. Any non-lethal methods? Here I am trying to use non-lethal on them. I see that you can extract them. They have a blue bar. There must be a way.

But I have encounters like this. ♥♥♥♥ it man. This is a stealth game, I don't wanna go and use extensive firepower.

I listened to the tape. Said water suspends their animation. Used water pistol. But ♥♥♥♥ THAT ♥♥♥♥ MAN!!! I cannot even register a CQC hit against them even when they are under suspended animation.

And neither does anything from the environment seem to help.

use the AMR sniper rifle do not use rocket lunchers and use D-Walker with gattling cannon and as vehicle use a tank before deployment. then just go to the roof top of the warehouse they can not beat you with those throwing rocks anymore so you are safe from that and try to kill them with sniper rifle. u dont need headshot just aim with crosshair and not even scope and keep hitting them until they die. btw man you are only 4 episodes away from deleting this game so enjoy it as much as youcan because episode 46 is where you delete this game and regret playing any MGS game u had to the date

Why not rocket launcher? It's power, no?

There´s no reason to take down the skulls non-lethal, because you can fulton them when you defeat them with lethal weapons.

Holy ♥♥♥♥ man. Why have a blue bar at all then?

just making sure you're talking about the mission i think you are....are you talking about the one where quiet runs off and you have to save her? If so, yeah, there is no easy way to do it. the tanks are programmed to kill you in one shot, no matter what health or armor you wear. How do i know this? Download a trainer, use infinite health, and let one of those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hit you. Spoiler alert, it will kill you.

Always a bonus for non-lethal attacks, if you want to spend 20x longer shooting them xD

You even get the all stealth no kills bonus when you take them down lethal, just be carefull not to kill any of the puppets.
