Starfield: Sabotage Mission Walkthrough (STEALTH)

[@CerealOverdrive]

TIPS I MISSED: - The end alarm can also be turned off with a passcode found at the computer in the room - The vent jump is hard, step forward one step from where you feel aligned then jump or better yet boost up - Guards can hear you as well as see you so take off spacesuit, helmet and backpack to sneak better. Check the comments for more specific tips and answers to questions. Best of luck!

[@Big_Ticket_SLumDog]

After you get into the bathroom from the hatch up top, just friggin fight them till next vent in lobby. Stay on those ceiling things to vent on top of elevator, enter this vent. Fight a little. The end becomes easy.

Glad I could help

[@WardenWolf]

Talk your way in to the first two areas. For R&D only worry about being seen until you get to the room with the prototype. Then just grab it and hop back in the vents, slip past the one guard, and run back to the elevator. Then take the elevator to the ground floor and you're out, likely without a single shot being fired. Don't sabotage the ventilation system; it only makes things harder because then guards will shoot on sight no matter which floor you're on.

[@befuddled_buddha]

Yeah stealth in this game seems largely useless beyond the stealth meter. If you had stealth maxed out in Skyrim or Fallout you could do burpees in the middle of a meeting of all the BBEGs in the game and they'd be like 'must be the AC.'

[@alyssabellon680]

This mission is the bane of my existence. Never would have made it thru without this.

[@Malryth]

I watched another short video by some British/English guy (forget the channel name). He had a non stealth way of beating this mission. You go in for the interview through the front elevator. You then follow the secretary to the person and talk to that person acting like you had an appointment. She'll send you over to another guy to talk to, and that's the PC you install the first piece of software on, claiming it's your resume or something like that. After that, the stealth to get to a certain area, where you mind control a science tech to open a locker. You jump down there, put on the lab tech outfit and take the keycard. Then walk right in and do your thing stealing the item, and walk right out the front door, they are non the wiser (change your cloths before you leave). I know I'm with you, the pure stealth stuff is difficult mainly due to how Bethesda programmed their stealth algorithms. Even maxed out, even able to turn invisible when crouched, you still get detected way more than you should. Hopefully this advice helps.

[@gezzamate3916]

Even with this video it took me 2 hours and like 20 saves and 150 loads that mission was absolutely ridiculous, thanks

[@CerealOverdrive]

Yea, it’s a crazy hard mission to do if you want to stay stealth

[@BRUTUSz]

@@CerealOverdrive the manipulation is stupid. The turret will target guards instant. I did all the way up to the one guard with turret, with no invincibility, but idk i had to use invis power there. Every time i used manipulation on guard, he run down to the turret and died. I could not get to pc in time. Guard got insta killed. The invis power is a joke. Tried not use it but in the end i had no choice :(

5:34 For anyone wondering, there’s a door at the top of the stairs that the computer to deactivate the turret is in. As soon as you reach the top of the stairs it’s immediately to the left and appears inaccessible until you read the emergency text saying to cut it. You can use your cutter to destroy the pins and drop in to get around the bugged red ID door.

[@tonydeangelo1616]

I found the backside of this door inside the vent above the computer thinking that this was the designed egress route after taking the prototype...

[@xstingrayx]

I ended up just making that noise, they came after me but i did manage to hide behind the open hatch until they calmed down again. didn't seem to affect the mission success ''''\('-')/'''''

[@1styoung]

Extremely helpful video, and prefer narration to none. Found your amazing directions after stealting past Drexler/uploading. Spot on. Noteworthy differences in my playthrough were: 1, Manipulation used only twice (stop fan and send the engineer away opposite the R&D room) 2, I didn't tamper with the heat, just stealthed the remainder (level 2 stealth, wearing only the operative suit and chameleon helmet. Power boost pack used for elevator descent and changing sides over the pipework on the way to R&D. 3, Hacking is possible over character's shoulder, I.e. Faye, then exit as they walk away. This results in no cameras, turrets or additional security, and an arguably easier playthrough.

[@WarNvrChanges]

Thanks for your guide! Did some experimentation with the mission when I did it and discovered two things: 1) Novablaster is very useful. Full charge stun and wait in a corner for the heat to die down. Good for the annoying minions and won't count towards kills. 2) You can destroy the turrets with a silenced weapon. Sometimes they'll trigger a search, others times not. Turret kills do not count towards kills.

[@maxvoirol33]

@4:50 I CANNOT make it past that turret without it seeing me and triggering the alarm. I have a silenced weapon but it’s low damage. Any suggestions?

[@lattekahvi1298]

that turret at the end can also be hacked with robotics skill, making it much easier since you dont need to try multiple times if using a skip pack, also the guard near the turret controls will eventually start to investigate the lab so i recommend using that manipulation ability to send her off until you get the item, hide and once she goes back in just use the ID to lock the doors again

[@rycarr]

Make sure you take off your space suit before you attempt any stealth missions. They are super loud if you don't have max stealth. I was able to do it pretty easily with just Rank 2 stealth + operator suit.

[@WardenWolf]

So, here's a tip: if you have any speech skills AT ALL it's better to talk your way in and NOT sabotage the ventilation system. You will be able to walk around freely on all but the R&D level, and only have to sneak to actually do the tasks. For the R&D level, the guards and scientists will alert on sight. However, you can use the vents to get to the room with the prototype, disable the alarm, then grab it. They'll see you, but if you jump back into the vents quickly you can get out of there without a single shot being fired. Then wait for the one guard to turn around, dash across the pipes and back to the elevator. Ground floor and you're out. If you sabotage the ventilation system, there will be a LOT more guards and they'll all be on high alert, forcing you to sneak EVERYWHERE.

[@keisharussell023]

😅

[@nickfehrman8734]

you don't need to sneak on the R&D level, you just need to steal a keykard/disguise from a locker in a cubicle on the floor above R&D. The locker requires a key so you have to manipulate someone to open it. You still have to sneak on the floor with the cubicle, but its conveniently beneath those lights you crawl across.

[@Chadsama]

Thank you for narrating @CeralOverdrive! It really helped! I was stuck on the last bit of this mission and spend 30 minutes trying to figure it out before coming to this guide and getting all my questions answered!!

[@FlawlessRhythmGG]

This was great. The only thing I did different was turned off the alarm first, before grabbing the prototype. Also, you have to time the turret/computer sequence correctly. You have to peek the laser and make sure it isn't looking towards the computer when you deactivate it, otherwise it sees you. I ended up making the mistake of saving all the way back at the second vent (by the exit elevator) and then realized that the guard you manipulate REALLY wants in the lab. She detected me and I had to do it all again, twice. You MUST shut the door behind you. I used the Space Stuff power (Detect Life for you Elder Scrolls fans) and no joke, once the door opens that guard runs straight for the lab. But really, thank you for the video. I spent 3 hours on this mission before I finally broke and checked the walkthrough and you explained it all pretty well. P.S. The talking isn't bothersome. In walk-throughs it's necessary, it's usually only annoying if you're watching a full play.

This definitely helps with the pathing needed. But if I'm late to this idea, let me know. I've been using the scanners camera mode to scout around corners like a short range drone

[@CerealOverdrive]

That’s a really nice approach! Good tip, thanks!

[@BigMoodGiraffe]

This guide helped me tremendously! Thank you so much for making it

[@davidmartin8987]

This game has unironically the worst stealth I’ve ever seen in a game

[@maverick_edc4014]

For reals

[@classicmrbake3160]

Fr i have 125% harder to be found i get found through the smog and shiz too like tf i have stealth maxed out

[@dallasfoster9016]

Dude thank you so much for this video, it is extremely helpful. My stealth is at minimum so I had to take a couple people out but was still able to pass the mission. Got a slap on the wrist but Masako was ultimately happy

[@CerealOverdrive]

Happy to hear it helped!

[@kaylaporter7267]

I appreciated this video SO much! The commentary was on point. Some people get really annoying with their choppy commentary.

[@gigasoftgaming]

Stealth in this game is so broken, they see you as soon as you are close to in there view even if your behind a wall, they need to FIX THIS

[@Yodasbrother3]

Void Form absolutely saved my ass on this mission, with max stealth I still had trouble, great job man

[@DanielStinebaugh]

When walking over the guards, CAPS LOCK will make you walk slow, and make stealth even more effective.

[@CerealOverdrive]

Really good tip. Thanks!

[@seabumbb3067]

Well, you did almost the same routing I did. I had to back-track on saves a few times. I was hoping to see a 'better, easier, quicker' method, but no. Regardless, I am glad to see the route I found was worthy and I am sure that those who have not finished this mission once will love to see a smooth method. I used a different method to get into Faye's room. From the elevator shaft (where there was a guard in it and a guard outside the vent for me - very hard level), I jumped across to the far piping, worked all the way around to the back, dropped down, crept along the wall, up the small flight of stairs into her office, grabbed the key. Looting the safe found nothing 'cool', unless you like a Legendary Frenzied Modified Drum Beat. It was a disappointment. As for stealth, remove your spacesuit, pack, and helmet, toggle walk mode, presto, you are much quieter. Yes, if you do this drunk, you are a lord of gaming!

[@CerealOverdrive]

Thanks for the tips! Honestly I think the best is this one but there should be a better one

[@jls6593]

At 5:20, there is a cuttable wall directly on your left and in view in that moment. If you make the guard go have a picnic elsewhere and disable the turret, you can skip getting the keycard entirely. Mind you, I used a sword to cut the hinges. I assume a silenced weapon can work.

[@CerealOverdrive]

Good tip! Thanks!

[@Newvirtues]

I saw “cuttable wall”, but didn’t think it was legit. Plus I don’t have any blades or silenced weapons. I know I know. Stupid considering stealth mission.

[@mistermechax]

@@NewvirtuesIt's not quiet per se, but the laser cutter does those super quick and it's not loud enough to set everyone off, provided you've dealt with/manipulated the guard

[@773soccer]

Thank you so much for this! I tried for over 1.5 hours before finding this video

[@RefrigeratorDoc]

Pro Hint: The walk/run toggle also works in stealth, so at 1:25 where you say "This part is hard" is actually very easy if you toggle walk/run (in stealth) and creep slowly. You never have to move the guards and there is no chance they will hear you.

[@tobiashofer4935]

If you don´t wear armour/armor it´s also much easier. I went by in normal stealth speed without an issue.

[@tharins4]

Thank you , old dude here , needed help on this and entangled. This video saved me from smash n my keyboard to pieces…

[@CerealOverdrive]

Anytime! I’m a fellow older dude (I identify as young though)

[@rnoxx]

not sure if its me but i been trying this for hours and at certain point the guards will do diffrent paths when i reload like i got to the bathroom and when i opened the door i see two guards and one will not turn away from the door

[@CerealOverdrive]

Can you use mind control to make the guard move?

[@rnoxx]

@@CerealOverdrive i might if i am quick but he could spot me very quickly

[@toxictophat711]

​@@rnoxxyo use the novablast disruptor it's basically a tazer and no you don't fail stealth using it I had the same as you I just completed the mission I don't wanna admit how long it took me

[@rnoxx]

@@toxictophat711 i got passed it just had to make some noise then hid seemed to reset there pattern

[@jacobmccallum1455]

You rock my dude. This helped me out so much. After 2 frustrating hours I was almost ready to through the game disk out the window. I'll be sure to check out your channel if I hit any more spots I just get hard stuck for sure.🤘🤘

[@clanwolfbaba6978]

Sorry to say that this mission is impossible. 63 tries. Bathesda has epically failed the stealth part of this game.

[@RobDoubleCheeseburge]

brilliant. thank you, I was lost on the floor with the central conference room for 30 min. until I watched this. I was king of the cubicles

[@gillaustin1713]

Legend! Ironically i failed the manipulation of that last guard like 10 times and then just snuck past him. Thanks for this!

[@CerealOverdrive]

Happy to help!

[@dutchman6807]

Well done man, not only did you help me out on this mission but you were very entertaining. Thanks

[@CerealOverdrive]

Thanks!

[@Zibbit27]

3:53 after you pick up the ID card just go through the orange door, u get to the same room but from a better angle and just skip everything. And then dont close the red door so u can keep track where the guard is and time the exit. This mission can be pretty easily done without doing any mindcontroll etc. (But mind controll helps since the AI is awful in Bethesda games)

[@MetalGearyaTV]

I have been stuck on this mission for days. Thanks for the video.

[@CerealOverdrive]

Glad I could help

[@ZFPAkula]

This mission gets far easier if you show up with both the "Void Form" & "Sense Star Stuff" powers. The first is a short duration cloak, and the other allows you to see where the guards are through walls. Both are obviously handy in this nightmare mission.

[@30noir]

Yeah, with I knew that Void Form is bugged and actually stops working if you have full stealth because then moving makes you visible - even IF you have void form active.

[@SheepSlayer]

@@30noir You have to use it while you aren't crouched. def bugged

[@Astristul]

Thx for the tip, but I don't intend to use any powers before NG+. I like these kind of challenges.

[@tylerscott7567]

You are a life saver my friend! Took 2 hours to do this... NEVER AGAIN! Thank you so much!

[@CerealOverdrive]

Glad it helped!

[@archedword]

Make Shure to actually unequip your space suit jet pack and space helmet that's why the sneak meter is staying half way full and makes you loud af

[@CerealOverdrive]

Didn’t realize that was a thing but it was probably part of why things were so hard. Thanks!

[@durmania]

This is by far the hardest stealth mission ive ever seen in a game. Holy crap

[@haraldkitel1474]

Very helpful, perfect length of video and nice to hear someone comment what they do and what to expect to come in a video 😁 Tx mate

[@CerealOverdrive]

Glad it was helpful!

[@iCatchingAnimations]

I can’t jump back up the way I can? Even with jet pack? 4:19

[@CerealOverdrive]

You probably need to step forward a bit

[@r.fuentez1482]

Well done. And the narration is fun, useful, and in the right amount.

[@CerealOverdrive]

Thanks 😊

[@_cul8r_]

The stealth is not bugged. Most people don’t realize that if you’re wearing your space suit (even if it’s auto-hidden) it will tank your stealth. I did this mission without being detected at all just wearing the stealth suit and no space suit or helmet. I only equipped the pack 2 times where it was needed for me to get back up in the showers and up the elevator shaft. Even just wearing the pack and no suit/helmet tanks your silent movement. Great video BTW. kudos!

[@immune85]

I wasn't wearing anything but the suit given for the mission, and a chameleon helmet. Still kept getting heard and seen even when I was completely still crouched in a corner. Sure, definitely not broken... Not to even mention the whole hive mind bullshit. It's ridiculous that they even have alarms, since they ALL know exactly where you are when one of them detects you, and see you through anything always.

[@_cul8r_]

@@immune85 I hear you. I had chameleon on my pack and was getting detected through walls. Took that off and then the "hidden" bar was white the whole time. I'll bet anything your helmet was screwing you over. The debuff for space gear against sneak is ridiculous. Not only does it get worse as you wear heavier gear, but even the lightest helmet will kill your stealth ability. EDIT: I can't verify, but with some light testing, indoors debuff seems worse than outdoors. I think the game knows when you're indoors and penalizes you for wearing your space gear when it isn't required.

[@immune85]

@@_cul8r_ I tried without the helm first, that didn't work any better. Played on "normal" difficulty. I already stopped playing that shitty game, though. Not worth the rage.

[@aaronclouser7086]

For those of you that don’t have the expert lock picking ability, there’s a security keycard in the corner of the room with the computers

[@clayvanryt5133]

Which room would that be exactly?

[@aaronclouser7086]

In the room where the neuroamp is kept@@clayvanryt5133

[@CerealOverdrive]

The end one

[@brkooduh66]

Excellent video. The main difference I did at the end was make a bit of noise so the guard came closer, then I manipulated him to attack the turret...the turret won. That changes the exit plan too, hop back up on the pipes and hug Angelina Jolie again 😅

[@CerealOverdrive]

Nice!

[@chowny7009]

There doesn't seem to be any REAL penalty for killing all the guards. Just some shade from your boss.

[@KMEgamerTV]

Lol fuck stealth... guns blazing is my go to 😂

[@matthewplowden8610]

Thanks so much for this walkthrough. I finally completed this quest with no casualties. I am level 32 but no points in stealth and was having a hard time. Can't say it was 100% stealth as at the end I didn't have expert level to access security disabling computer. Couldn't manipulate the guard to open it as I must have already used it on him. So I grabbed the prototype a run like hell but the mission proceeded without a hitch. Earned yourself a sub. Thanks
