Savant Key [Slaughterhouse]

Achievement Description: “Didn’t wake up Leon.”

The Savant Key is the hardest key to get in Katana ZERO as it requires avoiding three different events during the Slaughterhouse mission. These three events involve a character named Leon (he’s the one on the TV screens). To get the key you need to avoid waking him up. The three events are as follows.

Event 1 - Cut Wire
In this room you need to cut the wire before Leon locks you in. You have a few seconds to react once the door is opened. Cut the wire and continue deeper into the level. (You know you’ve done it correctly if you do not get sniped in the next rooms).


Event 2 - Avoid Cameras
In this room you will see four cameras on the ceiling. These cameras can be avoided by rolling into the center area then rolling past the last two. It is kind of a pain, but you can continually restart until you get it. If done correctly, Leon will not appear on the screen and you will not have to fight any enemies.


Event 3 - Avoid Cameras
The final event takes place right after event 2. Like event 2 you need to avoid the cameras in this room and make it to the other side.

[blebsmc99]

I got the GOLDMEDAL achievement with a 30 minute time (that counts as a full gold rank still) so I don't know why everyone still says it's only 29 minutes.

[MONSOONGAYMING]

thanks for the help!!

[Tichat002]

speedrun achievement isn't really under 29 minutes, it's just having an average of gold medal in each levels. technically you could finish it in 10 hours and still get gold medal overall if you get plat in some levels, then gold in all, then spend 9 hour waiting on the last room

[BRƱK]

Thanks for the heads up

[Islwyn]

SAVANT KEY: if you're getting sniped at, you need to restart. in the room where you cut the cable at the beginning, lure the enemy out. there is a camera in that room which can be set off. if its red, its been triggered. if its green youre ok. i spent 20mins stuck at the 4 camera room until i realized id already failed.

[BRƱK]

Yes, that'll do it too. You're welcome

[Olga 1987]

I talked with the administrator peacefully (I said that I cosplay an anime character; in the Bunker chapter I played a card game with her and even got an achievement for it) but I still got the secret boss fight and "Psychoterapy" achievement. Thanks for the guide anyway

[BRƱK]

Thank you!

[Blitz]

Great Guide!

[BRƱK]

MY MANNNN... YES.
