Just like in the original episode, you need to sneak into Wakh Sind Barracks to rescue the engineer.

This time, you need to slip through the compound like a ghost, which means no chicken hat, no reflex mode, and no getting spotted by anyone.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain – [Total Stealth] Over the Fence Mission Objectives

  • Extract the captured engineer
  • Fulton extract the engineer through the hole in the facility’s basement ceiling
  • Extract the prisoner plotting to escape from the Wakh Sind Barracks
  • Extract the four wheel drive patrolling between outposts
  • Secure the blueprint at Wakh Sind Barracks

Extract the captured engineer

As in episode five, the engineer is going to be in the building high up and to the back of the barracks.

Rather than wandering in through the main exit, climb the tower on the road leading in to the gates and jump across to the cliff opposite. There are soldiers patrolling the building so take DD to have him sniff them out and either wait for them to move along or take out the few that are in your path without being seen.

Fulton extract the engineer through the hole in the facility’s basement ceiling

Whisking the engineer away through the ceiling is the quickest way to get him out, and with DD on hand, you'll be able to tell when the coast is clear to attach him to a fulton and send him on his way through the hole in the ceiling in the room opposite his cell.

Extract the prisoner plotting to escape from the Wakh Sind Barracks

After you jump to the clifftop from the watchtower, this chap will be nearby, sitting along the edge to the right. Fulton him off when you're sure no one is looking your way. Again, DD is a good buddy to have with you for this purpose.

Extract the four wheel drive patrolling between outposts

It's possible to intercept the vehicle before it gets to the barracks if you move quickly once you're off the chopper. If you chose the landing zome to the east, you should be able to get eyes on it. Use your preferred method to have it stop - without being detected yourself - then deal with the occupants and fulton off the vehicle.

Alternatively, you'll find it at the lower end of the barracks in a heavily guarded and patrolled area. If you're feeling confident, you can attempt to get to it and extract it without beig detected, or wait until it's on the move again and follow it out of the barracks.

Secure the blueprint at Wakh Sind Barracks

As before, the blueprints are in one of the smaller buildings at the barracks.
