    Watch the Video!!!!

    Info prior to watching: You will first have the opportunity to unlock this achievement when you enter the Sarif Manufacturing Plant (first real level).

    Written Directions:: First climb down the ladders then wait around the corner until the guard is finished talking on his cell phone. Then move in and hold -b to take him down. Drag him around the corner and take his stuff. Then make your way along the far wall to the forklift; move the box and place it beside the other two boxes. Then run up the ramp and up the ladder. Move the box on the far wall at the top. Run through the gates and under the air duct. Open the air duct vent to your right and you will unlock the achievement.

    originaleimajYou say to hold the b button, but you can also just tap it so it is a non-lethal takedown, especially if you are going for the pacifist achievement. Still though, good guide. +1 from me.

    RJ RougeI'm wondering if it's required to use a non-lethal takedown, because I've tried to follow the video and the only difference is that I'm introducing the guard to stabbity death, but the achievement is not popping for me.

    This Secret Achievement is Called 'Ghost' - 15G

    You need to make it through an entire hostile area without so much as a squeak.
    so during the first combat area after you climb down the ladder and are prompted with a combat tutorial you will need to wait for the guard to finish on the phone then crouch and walk behind him and press B (you can move his body if you like just to be safe) then just along from the guard is a Crate on a forklift you need to pick that up and place it next to the containers so you can jump on top of them. timing is key so you don't get detected, when you get to the top you should see a ladder in which you need to climb, once at the top you need to move the Crate from in the corner so you can pass behind the electric generator, finally switch off the power and go round the corner through the vent and if you have done this correctly you should have the Achievement :)

    Best of Luck

    I managed to get this on the pre-order bonus level Tong's Rescue, which appears when you go back to China for the second time.

    It's a very short mission and there are only a few soldiers to avoid - one which patrols the area and three which stand in a group and can be avoided easily.

    The achievment unlocked when I reached Tong's son and spoke to him. There are two cameras in the cells next to Tong's cell - one of these made the alert go to "suspicious" as I sneaked past but I still got the achievement.

    To get the cell door open you need to access the computer in the office, if you're wondering.
