No Honor Among Thieves Walkthrough
Talk to Borodulin
Talk to Borodulin on the road west of the Hydroelectric Station. He has information on how to sneak through the Commissary where Roosevelt is residing.
However, he will demand you to accompany him for a little hunt before he gives you the info. You will fight off mutants with him and then satisfy his hunting urge by hiding or running from him for 1 minute. Try not to choose the [Threaten] Option, as he will become hostile, and you won't get what you need.
Kill the Shah and Roosevelt
| Objectives(Can be completed in any order) | - |
|---|---|
| Kill the Shah | Kill Roosevelt |
Kill the Shah and Roosevelt to get their PDA. Their PDA will be the proof that you kill them. If you have done the objectives before this, completing these ones will be a little bit easier.
Kill the Shah
Head to the Brood's Base located north of Slag Heap to kill the Shah. You can come there with guns blazing or you can sneak through the window using the metal pipe connected to the building.
Loot the Shah's PDA once you kill him and bring it back to Varan.
Kill Roosevelt
Go to the Commissary and take out Roosevelt. You can can fight him and his subordinates head on or you can go to the secret passage from Borodulin (marked on the map) to sneak up to him.
If you choose to sneak in, you will be spotted by Roosevelt, but he will try to talk you out of killing him. However, he will not hand you the PDA if you decide not to kill him.
Bring Shah's and Roosevelt's PDA to Varan
Return to the Plant and hand over the PDAs to Varan. He will then let you see the prisoners, but you will find them already dead.
Varan will also try to eliminate you after helping him, making this mission pointless and a waste of time, and you could've killed him right from the start.
