Mission 3 Flagstone: Kill 3 at the same time

[Oralapostel]

How can this work with only 2 heroes available? Is it about timing two kills with the whiskey kill?

[Fjuczers]

Yes it is about timing, this is how I done it:


1. poison whiskey with Cooper
2. run with Cooper to mini tower near bull arena where guard were. aim gun at target with Showdown.
3. manualy as Hector, kill the foreman with axe and hit Shwdown button.

you need to watch few times animation of dying from poisoned whiskey. there is a bit lag there. Target is dead when body turns grey. Make save when girl starts walking with poisoned whiskey upstairs and try few times

how did you get the poison?

It's on a table outside Marge's room (where there are two guards). You can easily access it with Cooper by climing on a shed, jumping over to a carriage and then balcony. Pick up the vial and get out while two guards have a chat.

There is also an easier way of doing three kills. On the right of the church there is the elevated bit you can climb on. From there Cooper can shoot using showdown two target at the same time (guy by railroad tracks, and they guy who comes nearby the church).

Send Hector down and clean area around the bull. When Cooper is ready to shoot both targets, go and ax the bull-fellow. You need to time it right, and unfortunately, Coopers showdown can bug out if it's set too early and enemy moving messes up with the showdown.

So:
1) set up the showdown making sure cooper can hit both targets
2) swich to Hector and have him axe the target
3) as the animation starts initiate showdown with Cooper and hope he will take out two targets.
Cooper can get out of there if you hurry without anyone bothering him, if he didn't get noticed so it is also a realyl fast way of dealing with 3 of 4 targets if you speedrun. You will have one target left with 10 minutes to spare. Alternatively, enemies can't climb vines so Cooper is safe there anyway. It will just take time for enemies to chill.

:-D. That's how I got kill 5 enemies with a dynamite achievement. "Should I try to time it? Nah..."

[Oralapostel]

Thx, I think I maybe try the tied up and drop the bell way. I try to avoid shooting completely in my first run as I think it does not fit to stealth game.

The Church Bell will do it .

You don't even have to tie them up, just wait until three people are talking in front of the church. All it requires is a little patience.

Oh! Is that a time thing, or do you need to do something?

I only ran the mission once so I don't know. I did kill two of the other people before doing that one, so it may or may not have affected things.

I did it just now. Managed to do the not touching any haystacks or bushes and not killing or knocking out anyone in the train yard badges as well. I did a variation of the "psychopath" way for the simultaneous kills and shamelessly copied a trick I saw a youtuber (PartyElite) do for the train yard one.

Preparation: kill the guy working near the entrance to the church forbidden zone and hide his body in the little blindspot-corner near the vine Cooper can use to reach the church undetected. Do the same to his buddy who gets suspicious when he's gone. Having a body at hand here is essential. After this,

>knock out and tie up Jarvis and Marge
>you need to bring them together but this is going to be tricky because civilians will raise an alarm if they see you carrying them
>this is why I don't recommend bringing them to the bell, takes way too long
>clear the street between the whorehouse and the little gap in the fence that leads to the Jarvis area (I didn't kill civilians, just knocked them out, but it plays the same way, more or less)
>using Cooper's coin is essential here, but once you get enough of them out of the way knocking them out two at a time gets easy, because you can go right next to them in the civil zones
>when you get the street empty, bring the tied up targets together (doesn't really matter which one you move, I brought Marge next to Jarvis
>queue Cooper shooting them both at the same time and go the church tower with Hector
>drop the bell and execute showdown mode
>next just go back to where you had hidden the bodies earlier, close to the church area entrance
>throw one of them at Cooper using Hector
>throw unconscious Cooper into the unfinished building with the wall you can drop on enemies
>wait for Cooper to wake up, drop the wall on McBane, drop down and you're done

The badge requires killing 3 of the 4 targets, not any hostiles.

Here is how I did it with minimal timing tricks.

Cooper can shoot the guy that wanders near the church and the guy in the railyard at the same time if hes standing at a high point in the building under construction. I parked Hector near the bull guy and took out all 3 with a showdown pause when the church guy was in position. The pistol kill is loud but you can run through the buildings with Cooper to break LoS and then get into the safe area just fine.

When you put Cooper on the right side of the church (climb the liana) you can also shoot both the same time but have a far easier retreat and entry (which is also really useful for speedrun).

You can just cuff 3 enemies and place them close to each other.

Setup showdown to kill with ax one enemy using Hector, and dual pistol shots on two other enemies. Run Showdown. Done.

If you dont want do this this long way you can poison a wine. Civilian need some time to deliver wine, so you have time to go op position to two other targets.
