Run 1: The Factory Depths to the Credits

Through the B1 door to the Sturm and Heisenberg fights, across the burning village to the lab, then the last stop at the Altar, the final fight and the credits.

This stretch starts at the horse door on factory B1 and runs to the credits. Stock up and save at the Duke's elevator before you open that door: it leads straight to a boss. The walk leaves three places behind for good: the B1 control rooms when the crane lifts you out of the Cargo Bay, the factory after the Heisenberg fight, and the lab when you break the cage padlock. Each has a warning just before it. The last two goats and nine files of the run are on this stretch, and so are the last two collection trophies.

Location
Heisenberg's Factory · Maze – From the Power Room, take the next door into the big room of metal walls; the machine crashes in a few steps later. It charges in straight lines, so sidestep and let it smash the walls down. Each time it rams a wall and stalls, run behind it and pour your strongest guns into the glowing red turbine on its back. Once it bursts into flames it gains a fire attack: duck behind cover and keep clear of the burning patches. It drops the Complex Mechanical Heart, a treasure for the Duke.

Before you ride the crane

The Cargo Bay crane lifts you up to the ground floor, and the walk never comes back down to these rooms. Have File: Sturm from the Power Room, File: Heisenberg's Diary and the Cigar (optional) from the control room, and the Goat of Warding in the small storeroom behind it before you pull the crane's lever.

Last look at the factory

Driving the vehicle into the elevator starts the Heisenberg fight, and once it ends the factory is gone for this run. Before you board, have File: Chris's Computer from the laptop, plus the B1 rows above (File: Sturm, File: Heisenberg's Diary, the Cigar (optional) and the Factory B1 Storage goat). If the Goat of Warding: Factory Elevator Shaft is still standing, it passes by again on this ride: watch the west wall of the shaft as the elevator climbs. Everything from the floors below the B1 door goes too, if that door hasn't already cut them off: Quit Hanging Around, File: Development Note 1, File: Development Note 2, the Goat of Warding: Factory Ventilation Duct, the Ball Mold, the Iron Horse Ball and the Labyrinth: Factory (Bister Skull), the M1851 Wolfsbane – Long Barrel, and the optional Locked Fridge: Generator Room Walkway, Locked Drawer: Private Passageway, Lockpick: Construction Tunnels, Lockpick: Operating Room, Treasure: Mechanical Part (Cylinder), Treasure: Mechanical Part (Shaft), Treasure: Heisenberg's Hammer, the Fenced stash: Large Power Regulator Room, the Treasure: MB3 crystal cache, the Treasure: Crystals by the Drill (Construction Tunnels) and the Yellow Quartz in the Large Power Regulator Room, the Materials Room, the Ventilation Duct and Walkway Access.

Heisenberg (Factory Back Yard)Hidden spoiler – activate to revealBossMinor spoiler
Location
Heisenberg's Factory · Back Yard – Board the vehicle in the Scrapheap and drive it into the elevator; the fight starts when you roll out into the yard. Aim the cannon at his glowing red weak points and use the machine gun while it reloads; hold the block button to meet his chainsaw with your own, and keep moving sideways in the open ground. After the vehicle phase you fight on foot: pull the ammo out from under the metal sheets in the ground and shoot the parts his armour no longer covers. Crystal Heisenberg, a valuable treasure, is yours automatically when he falls.

After the cutscenes the next stretch starts in the forest above the burning village. Your inventory now holds a Target Locator, which the steps below rely on. Supplies wait at spots marked by green flares, some of them off the path; take them as you go.

Location
The Village · Village overlook – Follow the only path out of the forest to the overlook above the village. A cutscene shows the village through a rifle scope, and the trophy pops right after it if every village area was uncovered before the Giant's Chalice went onto the Stone Dais: the side area behind the Crank door near Moreau's domain, the river by boat both ways from the Lone Road drawbridge, and Otto's Mill. If it doesn't pop, a manual save from before the Ceremony Site is the only way to earn it in this run: reload it, uncover the missing area, then play the factory again. Runs 2 and 3 cross the village again as a later chance.

The Village · Village centre – From the overlook, fight down the path into the village; keep archers on the rooftops and the big lycans at range, and use a grenade on the armoured one. At the huge roots in the centre of the village, pick the Target Locator from the inventory and hold it on the roots until the bar fills; a hit resets it. Keep running and fighting until the radio says to mark again, and repeat until the third strike destroys the roots. Red barrels in the side streets help against the crowds.

Under the Village · Underground arena – Where the roots stood, jump down the hole and collect the supplies in the green-lit area below; the fight starts in a small cave. Bullets barely hurt its front, so circle the edges, shoot its back, and dodge its leaps from the ledge. When the radio says an airstrike is ready, hold the Target Locator on it, ideally right after one of its big attacks so the bar can fill. It drops the Giant Crystal Mace, a treasure the Duke buys later.

The end of the run

Squeezing through the branches past the Ceremony Site leads straight into the last fight, and the credits follow it. Everything still open in this run is lost there, including the Goat of Warding at the Megamycete statue and the six lab files (Moreau's Medical Report, Miranda's Diary, Dimitrescu's Medical Report, the Letter on the Microscope Table, Heisenberg's Medical Report and Donna's Medical Report). Make your last purchases and your save at the Altar first.

Part of the fight is in darkness; keep moving and guard when she lunges. At the very end she pins you down and a big glowing orb forms: shoot the orb when the prompt shows to finish the fight.

About this guide

Three runs of the main game: a full run for every collectible, a fast New Game+ run on Casual with only the knife, few healing items and little Lei spent, then New Game+ on Village of Shadows with the bonus weapons. The Mercenaries opens after the first credits. Shadows of Rose is a separate story from the main menu, played once on Hardcore. Each domain closes behind you as the story moves on, and the whole village closes before the last stretch, so take everything before each point of no return.
