Head downstairs to the Upper Waterway and proceed west until you see a spot where you climb up, then use your T-Bar to unlock a shortcut to the Bottom Waterway.

You’ll need to drop down and collect a Green Herb off the Zombie and then make your way over to the Supplies Storage Room. It would be easiser for you to dodge all the enemies whilst using the Mixed Herb to help prevent poison and damage. Once you’ve gotten past all the enemies and entered the Supplies Storage Room, head upstairs and shoot the Raccoon that’s hiding behind some boxes at the end of the corridor, now continue onwards to collect a Red Herb that’s sitting on a yellow shelf, head down the stairs to face a puzzle.

Use the Queen Plug to open a door that will give you access to the upstairs, head upstairs and remove the King Plug and then drop down. Head east and place the King Plug into a socket to open a door to the Chemical Flamethrower alongside a shortcut, open it and make your way back into the corridor to take back the King Plug. Recover the Queen Plug and reinsert it back where you originally found it and head left and insert the King Plug to open a different door which will allow you to collect the Queen Plug permanently. Finally, take back the King Plug and make your way back to the Monitor Room.

Use the plugs to open the door

With the three pieces needed to complete the puzzle that will open the door, simply place the Rook in between the Knight and the Bishop then place the King on the opposite side of the Knight followed by the Queen in the middle opposite the Rook. Head through the door and downstairs to find a Blue Herb on the floor alongside a Green Herb a bit further in. Make your way to the Main Power Room to turn on the power, once inside collect the Red Herb and then interact with the panel, here you’ll need to flip the switches until the two dials are in the red. You can do this by having the two left and the furtherst right switches turned on.

After the power is back on, make your way towards the Garbage Room, unfortunately an unknown enemy has caused a blaze so now you’ll need to keep moving around the room dodging his attacks until it comes through the shutter.

Boss: G (Stage 2)

Once the boss has barged his way through the shutter, dodge his attack and follow the corridor to the Proposed Water Purification Room, drop down and quickly run towards the control pannel to collect a Stun Grenade and a Combat Knife from a barrel. Head to the left side of the panel and grab some Handgun Ammo before finally interacting with the panel to get the crane in position.

In order to unlock the Trophy/Achievement, you’ll only be able to use the crane once so you’ll need weaken him yourself by focus firing on his eye, using the Lightning Hawk as it’s really powerful against the G (Two Shots to his eye with the Lightning Hawk will cause him to fall). Continue shooting his eye until it changes from a yellow color to a dark orange which can take between three to four falls before you’re ready to stun him and use the crane.

(1 of 2) Keep shooting at the eye to weaken the boss

Keep shooting at the eye to weaken the boss (left), once he has fallen three or four times, use a Stun Grenade to keep him in place whilst you activate the crane to push him off. (right)

Whilst you’re weakening him, you’ll have to watch out for his attacks. Being at a distance from the boss will cause the boss to go in for a lunge attack so make sure you’re constantly ready to quickly sprint out of the incoming danger. Keeping close to the boss isn’t a safe option either because it will put you at risk of his grab attack which will do a chunk of damage.

After you’ve defeated the G for the second time, head over to the south of the room to grab some MAG Ammo. Head across the recently constructed bridge and up the stairs to unlock a door back to the Garbage Room, now interect with the lever to open the door to Ada. Follow Ada to the Cable Car and interect with the lever to be taken to the lab.

Head to the lab

Once you’ve interacted with the lever and continued forward to the Lab you’ll receive the ID Wristband. Exit the Cable Car, head forward to the Reception and head to the southwest to find a Safe Room.
