How to complete the Electric Trilogy challenge in Hitman World of Assassination – Destructoid
The Electric Trilogy challenge in Hitman World of Assassination is one you must complete on the Haven Island location, and it requires you to electrify all three main targets to death. This is no easy feat unless you know exactly what you’re doing.
Haven Island is a dense location in Hitman World of Assassination. It’s got three main targets to kill and several core areas that they’ll move through. You can even kite one of the targets across the entire map if you want. But we won’t be doing any of that to tackle the Electric Trilogy challenge. Instead, we’re going to make every target come to us so we can take them all out simultaneously. It feels appropriate that this challenge was added with The Drop DLC pack for the game because it’s just as complex in theory but relatively simple in practice as that Elusive Target mission.
How to complete the Electric Trilogy challenge in Hitman World of Assassination
Below, I’ve outlined the best path for completing the Electric Trilogy challenge in Hitman World of Assassination. Use the Resort Pier starting location and bring a silenced pistol and a coin, at the very least. It would pay to bring an Emetic Poison Vial with you, but you can pick up a substitute later if you don’t have one.
Step 1: Grab a disguise
The first thing you need to do is head along the pier and to the left from your starting location. Keep going until the pier leads onto the beach. You can pick up an Emetic Flower at the location shown in the map reference above. Note that you don’t need this if you’ve brought an Emetic Poison Vial.
Keep running along the left-hand side of the island until you reach the villa. This location is shown in the map reference above. There’s a camera above the main doorway that’s worth shooting out. However, you can climb over the wall if you follow the left-hand wall up the island until you spot the gap at the top.
Vault over the wall and duck into the grass. This is where you need to use your coin to lure a guard down to you, subdue him, and take his disguise. If you’ve unlocked the lab hatch here, take that downstairs. Otherwise, you’ll need another route.
Step 2: Get into the lab
Next, make your way to the location shown on the map reference above. The entrance to the lab is next to the bar on the beach, underneath the staircase to the villa. You’ve got to wait for a lab tech to exit the lab, get a drink, and then follow him through the door when he heads back inside.
You’ll have no trouble sneaking into the lab if you’re wearing the guard disguise. From there, head downstairs and into the glass room above the servers. This is where things start to get tricky.
Step 3: The setup
Head left out of the glass room, careful to avoid the camera, and up onto the walkway. You can shoot the camera behind you out as well as the one looking over the servers. Your main target is actually a plug in the central podium on the lower floor. You can see it in the image above as the tiny yellow item on the left, out of the three yellow icons in the middle of the room.
Shoot the plug and take the time to ensure it’s broken. This will save you precious time later on. Now, you need to get back into the glass room you entered when you first came down here.
The ventilation system is on the right-hand side of this room, but one of the lab techs will stand close to it, shredding paper without moving unless you make him. To do this, flick a coin onto the same raised floor as him but close to the steps leading up to it.
This will distract the tech, at which point you must get up to the ventilation system and use your Emetic Poison, whichever you’ve brought, to poison the entire system. After a few seconds, everyone in the server room will get sick and begin to leave.
Now you can turn off the ventilation system to clear the gas. Run down into the server room and pull out all four servers from the stacks around it. These are pretty obvious, but you’ll need to be fast because lab techs will come down to investigate the distractions. You need to pull all four at once to trigger the alert and draw in your targets.
Step 4: Wait for the kill
Once you’ve pulled all four servers and triggered the alert, your targets will make their way down to the central podium. If a camera has caught you, it’s worth heading there first to sabotage the data, but it’s not essential.
From here, head back up to the walkway where you shot the plug. Either side will do. You’ve got to wait for all three targets to be on the podium. Then, shoot the water cooler next to them. This pours water all over the floor and onto the plug, electrocuting all three and completing the Electric Trilogy challenge.
Exit the mission however you want. My preference is the plane on the beach because you can access it via the ladder just off of this walkway. For completing this challenge, you’ll unlock the ICA Proximity Micro Taser, which is an incredibly useful tool for future kills in Hitman World of Assassination.
