You must alter right guard's path, or kill him. If you do not, you will not be able to get on the elevator quickly (assuming stealth). *If you alter the left guard's path, you must alter it further or kill him. Unaltered, he leaves the elevator area just before the elevator arrives (assuming stealth). *You can use the credits as visual cues for stealth. Head up the left path when CG Artists //Takashi Mizutani and Hideki Sasaki// appear. The final credit is Assistant Director //Yoshikazu Matsuhana.// *Instead of knocking on the wall, you can let the elevator guard exit. This is slower. ====Heliport==== {{youtube>9TssO3PQ8ic?medium}} ---- {{youtube>Uod_CLKT8sE?medium}} *Initial dpad movement is simple and the same on every difficulty to manipulate the Helipad guard *Quick equip Chaff on Heliport Pickup if you performed RAM Manipulation {{ :mgs1:stealthspotheliport.png?direct&300 |}} *Stealthy position at the searchlights ====Tank Hangar==== *If you do not hold up on the analog for the Miller call, Snake will stop crawling.

IL variant\\ {{youtube>lv66g0Y8eHU?}} Example of the IL strat:\\ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HJTmoIImxQ explainer for recreation:\\ * start by skipping the final cutscene of Mantis reading your mind right away * turn up right and hold square to prepare for Mantis manipulated top right position * after a single shot hold fpv to confirm he goes bottom right of you, turn and auto aim * only shoot when he's about to appear again, that little delay guarantees the top left position at the statue * we need this top left position to give an extra shot to Mantis before the chair phase * run up to the desk and hit him 4 more times * continue as seen in the video blasting Mantis with the Famas for a total of 13 shots * Meryl phase skip only happens on 13 shots * the 13th shot may need to be done after the chair phase but before Mantis starts the vase phase * run up to the desk and align slightly right of the vertical line of the desk texture * tap down once, turn up, place the claymore as Mantis is floating down to stand * switch to grenade on hearing the click and run to the right to avoid the damage * from here toss the grenade at Meryl's face to end her 2nd phase * toss another grenade at Mantis to end his hide and seek phase * unequip grenades and menu up once to get to the famas and blast Mantis right away * position yourself at the tables to the right for uninterrupted shots during chair phase 2 * if you're lucky you get another chair phase right after and don't need to adjust * usually the vase / mask phase follows up, keep moving and use the box to slip past the vases and keep continuosly shooting Mantis until the fight is over Explanation for Easy difficulty\\ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8APeemOLizk Here's the glitchless method as done by Repeatzzzzz\\ {{youtube>DcJvrYxotA4?}} for reaching the phase skip without the claymore:\\ *19 socom shots, 101 famas ====Cave==== === Vent Glitch Hold Method === For both going up and returning back through the cave {{youtube>tgIlIlxwWpg?medium}}====Cave==== ====Underground Passage==== ====PSG-1 Backtrack==== {{youtube>h7W0_f2Zws8?medium}} *If you knock on the wall under the pipes (where the trap door is) the time it takes snake to run down with no weapon is exactly the same time it takes until you flip him.
