||INTRO||
|+-----+|
+-------+

This is a short FAQ that addresses nothing but how to get through the Penthouse
Mission in Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield. The Penthouse mission is a stealth-only
mission that prevents you from firing any rounds or even being seen. Many game
reviewers hate this level because they say it breaks the pace too much, and I
half-agree. I like the change of pace, but considering this is the ONLY stealth
mission, it does seem a little silly. My opinion is, either have more than one
or two, or have none at all.

But that aside, I'm here to help you out if you're struggling on this one. If
you follow these steps, you'll complete the mission in roughly 5 to 7 minutes
or less, and then you can be back on your way to shooting people. And isn't
THAT what Rainbow Six is all about? ^_^



+--------------------+
|+------------------+|
||MISSION OBJECTIVES||
|+------------------+|
+--------------------+

I won't reveal the story, but this mission has you taking your Rainbow team
into a penthouse to bug a phone and a computer. You can't be seen by anyone,
and you can't shoot anyone. The mission will immediately terminate in either
case. After you complete both objectives, you have to get out of there to the
extraction zone on the roof, which is right next to the insertion zone.



+------------+
|+----------+|
||TEAM SETUP||
|+----------+|
+------------+

John Clark and every guide out there recommend that you only take one operative
in this mission. One single person will be much harder to spot than a group of
four, and you won't need to worry about cover because there will be no
firefight if this is done right.

I whole-heartedly disagree, but I'll explain why in a moment. Instead, make two
teams. The Red team will be the team that actually runs around inside the
building doing the objectives. Green team is going to do literally nothing.
Again, I'll explain in a moment, just be patient.

Red team needs only one operative. Due to the nature of the mission, you'll
need someone with a high stealth rating. The operatives with the highest
natural stealth rating are Ding Chavez and Antonio Maldini, both with stealth
ratings of 100. The only other stat you really should even bother glancing at
is electronics: Chavez rates at 67, and Maldini rates at 65. The numbers are
close enough to be moot. I normally choose Maldini because by the time I get
here in the campaign, Chavez has run about 6 to 8 missions, and Maldini hasn't
run any. Even Rainbow operatives need days off. Should neither man be
available, grab whoever has the highest stealth rating among the rest.

Anyway, your green team can contain any number of operatives. I choose one for
simplicity's sake, but you can choose however many and whoever you choose. It's
up to you.

For Red team's equipment, give its sole operative light clothing. Because
you'll be in light 99% of the time, the color scheme you use won't make that
much of a difference. You can stick with black if you want to do the Batman
thing, or you can go for blue if you want to do the Solid Snake thing. Give him
NO primary weapon (scroll the box above the submachine guns and you can just
give him nothing for the primary). You need to give him a pistol, so go with a
lightweight one like the P-228 or Mk23. I prefer the Mk23 because it has a
built-in suppressor. Give him the Heartbeat Sensor and the Electronics kit to
round out the outfit.

Green team can carry anything and weapon they want. They can wear what they
want, and can carry whatever optional equipment they want. Yet again, it's up
to you.



+----------------+
|+--------------+|
||PLANNING PHASE||
|+--------------+|
+----------------+

The planning phase is pretty pointless here. You should be the one controlling
red team, so you don't need to set waypoints or anything (although I have
successfully beaten this mission from observer mode; you just have to set go
codes at points that I'll talk about in the actual walkthrough). You can get a
good view of the map, but you don't know the enemies' patrol routes. You can
right now charge into battle if you desire.

There is one tiny thing I recommend, and now I'll explain Green's role. The
fourth objective is to get out, but IT DOESN'T SPECIFY WHO HAS TO LEAVE. If you
go into this mission with one operative, he'll have to get all the way out by
himself. But if you go in with a second team, you can send the second team to
extraction zone immediately, and that will fulfill the mission objective! Then
you only have to worry about getting IN, not getting OUT.

So, give Green two waypoints: one in the insertion zone, and one in the
extraction zone. Green will have nothing to do but play solitaire while it
waits for you, but so be it.

Of course, Red will need at least ONE waypoint... you have to give them a
starting point within the insertion zone.

||MISSION WALKTHROUGH||
|+-------------------+|
+---------------------+

Okay, now it's time to legally break and enter. Take control of Red and start
the mission.

Start by walking forward and opening the metal door to the fire escape. There
are no enemies here, so you can run down the whole tower of stairs. There is
another metal door at the foot of the stairs that actually leads to the
penthouse itself. Enter, still running, and open the door at the end of the
short hallway. There are still no enemies here, don't worry. Slow down to a
normal walking speed. Stick against the right wall until you come to a pair of
steps, and PEEK around the left edge. You'll see a pair of double doors made of
glass. You can see through them, and yes, so can the tangos through them.

However, of the three guys sitting there, two are engrossed in a soccer game.
One of them is walking around randomly, so you need to look for him. For this
little predicament, I actually draw my pistol. I play the single-player game
with Auto-Aim (yeah, I know, I'm a wuss), so the crosshairs jump whenever the
guy comes into view. That will help you figure when he leaves, as well; once he
walks off to the left, you can proceed. Walk to the set of stairs on your left,
and go up the stairs until your gun is in line with the edge of the wall on
your right.

Now, don't whip out your heartbeat sensor here. There is only one guard who is
patrolling this area in a clockwise pattern that you need to avoid, but there
might be as many as three blips on your sensor due to various people running
around. Just wait there, peeking to the left. The guard will never see you,
because he'll walk past your position, and you'll see his back as he moves.

Once he passes you, go forward to the next corner. He's taken a turn down the
hallway that you want to go to, so wait. Make sure you're WAY behind the
corner, because he's going to come back toward you. Take out your heartbeat
sensor here; there's he's the only one who will probably show up, but even if
he's not, it won't be too hard to figure out which blip is his. Wait until he
goes to the right, then hurry down the hallway he just came from (DO NOT RUN,
he might hear you).

To the right of that hallway is a set of double doors. Go in, and you'll find a
desk with a laptop. MAKE SURE YOU CLOSE THE DOOR BEHIND YOU. If for some reason
you get delayed and the guard sees the open door, he WILL come and investigate.
Get behind the desk and hold down the space bar to start planting the bug on
the computer. The electronics kit will operate by itself, and the bug will be
complete in 7 to 8 seconds.

Now you have a choice. If you want to be aggressive, you can immediately exit
the room (SHUT THE DOOR BEHIND YOU again), and run to the right for the stairs.
If you were as smooth as James Bond, then the guard will probably be still out
of position. However, if you got delayed for whatever reason, then you may want
to wait for the guard to complete another lap. Should you choose to wait, then
hangout near the statue on the left facing the doors from the inside. If you're
by the right statue, he can see you. Use the heartbeat sensor to watch him, and
when he starts to head back toward the center of the building, go on to the
stairs on the right.

Whether or not you were aggressive getting there, climb the short flight of
steps and stick against the right wall. Wait once you get to the corner.
There's another single guard here, but he's patrolling counter-clockwise. You
might be able to pick him up on the heartbeat sensor, but I don't bother. Just
peek around the left corner and wait to see him cross the far hallway from left
to right.

Once he passes to the right, head forward and turn left, heading down the
direction he came from. Along the left wall is a door; enter it, and close it
behind you. You're now in the master bedroom, which has a phone on the far
wall. Simply walk up to the phone and hold the space bar to plant a bug on the
phone. Once done, the game will check and see that you have an operative in the
extraction zone, so the mission will be complete!
