Rescuing Sykes has already paid off. He has provided you with tons of intel relevant to your mission, with an international client list giving you tons of leads to start on. You will be taking your squad to Peshawar, where many criminals trade illegal materials through Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. If there’s anywhere that you can find your weapons dealer, it’s here. The guy you’re after might even have access to radioactive materials, making him a dangerous target indeed. Of course, he will be tucked safely away behind massive quantities of enemies in a highly guarded facility. This mission will contain lots of sniping, meaning that you will absolutely want to bring a good silenced rifle along with you.
As you move in, HQ will report that your seller is arranging a potential sale with a buyer. You should keep a low profile as you move through the city so that you will not end up alerting the guards. Also note that the city is crowded with civilians, so in some areas of the city you might have to carefully adjust your aim so as not to take any out by accident.
You will begin the mission in a building in front of the window. Climb over the ledge and through the window to proceed ahead. Crouch to activate your Camo and keep a look out for the five enemies surrounding you on the buildings around you. Deploy your Drone and use it to find and mark all of the enemies in the area. Note the two enemies patrolling below you, and the three enemies on the rooftops. Take out the rooftop enemies with a sync shot before focusing on the two enemies on the ground. Once all of the enemies are dead there, proceed ahead to reach the next area of the roof. Recall your Drone as you go.
Stand up and proceed across the rooftop, towards the waypoint. Climb over the low objects and walls as you go. Keep proceeding until you see the word Contact flash up on the screen, implicating that you have a group of enemies here to take out before you can move on. Again, you will have to deal with snipers here. Get crouched again and take cover. Look across the street to the building ahead to find a lone sniper waiting for you. This is the only enemy at this checkpoint, so feel free to peek out of cover and pop one off right into his head. Keeping your camo active, creep to the right and proceed to the next area of the rooftop. This area of the rooftop will be far more crowded than the last one, so be careful as you creep ahead. Take cover and deploy a Drone.
There will be eight enemies in this area, and you will need to be very careful about the order in which you take them out and your timing with that. If you fail here, you’ll have to start out before you killed the lone enemy, so be careful so as not to waste your time. Directly ahead of you will be an enemy on the rooftop both to the left and to the right. Mark both of them. These enemies will raise the alarm right away if you kill any other enemies in the area, so they need to go first. Don’t pop off a shot just yet, though, as there are two other enemies at elevated positions elsewhere. Look to the far right and far left rooftops to find two more enemies at elevated positions. If you are having trouble with finding these enemies, deploy a Drone and use it to mark them for you and your squad. Again, they will raise alarms if you kill anyone before dealing with them. With all four of them marked, execute them with a sync shot.
Now you will only have four enemies left to deal with. These four enemies will be located at lower portions of the rooftop than the other four you just executed. Mark all of them, again using your Drone if you are having difficulty in locating them as you still do not want to raise an alarm, and perform a sync shot to kill all of the enemies in the area and clear the area. Your teammates will lead you around the side of the rooftop. Step into the white ring to initiate a breaching sequence. Before you can burst through the skylight, though, you will have to use a Drone to identify the arms dealer. You won’t want to shoot him, but the rest of the enemies in the area will need to go before you can go on with your interrogation.
Deploy a Drone and fly it towards the new waypoint marker that will have just appeared on the balcony below you, where one of the enemies who you shot earlier was patrolling. As you descend towards the ground, you can hit the action button to transform your Drone into Crawler mode, which will function as a sort of remote-controlled car with a camera and an EMP charge on it. Drive the Crawler through the vent in the wall on the opposite side of the balcony. You can now reach the room where the deal is currently under way. Unfortunately, the buyer is here but the dealer is nowhere to be found. Turn right after going through the vent and drive down the staircase. There will be a ton of enemies loitering about on the lower floor. Take care not to drive your car too close to any of the enemies; they may be dumb, but a remote-controlled car driving around through their compound isn’t exactly the most subtle thing in the world. Wait until the nearest enemy turns his back and drive your Crawler to the waypoint, where you should then hit the action button to discharge your EMP.
Discharging the EMP will cause your view to skip back to the rooftop, where you will now be breaching the compound. The game will enter slow motion as you reach the floor. You will only need to worry about two enemies here. The third enemy, all the way to the right, is the buyer, and if you shoot him, you’re effectively shooting the mission in the foot. Take out the two enemies to the left with your sidearm to reach the next checkpoint. You will grab the buyer and shove him against the wall, frisking him and knocking him out. You will then radio the HQ for a mission update seeking your next objective. You have the buyer, but you still need to head out to find the buyer. Stay tuned for the next guide for instructions on this next step in the mission.
