Hitman: Freelancer – How to Get A Silenced Pistol Fast

During the story Mission at the Isle of Sgáil in Hitman: Freelancer, players are able to obtain a Silenced Pistol fast for covert kills against foes.

The nearly rogue-like experience of Hitman: Freelancer follows the epilogue of Hitman III, with players now able to approach four distinct campaigns with strategic planning to find items such as the powerful Silenced Pistol in a fast and efficient fashion when going after certain targets. Centered around Syndicate enemy bases, players of this expansion can build their arsenal through trial and error during these single-player missions, including one that places them near a section of the North Atlantic called the Isle of Sgáil. A Silenced Pistol is hidden under the base for players to add to their arsenal of gear for the future.

While the map might be familiar to players who’ve indulged in the World of Assassination for Agent 47 and Hitman 3‘s various updates, grabbing the Silenced Pistol fast begins at the top portion of the Syndicate’s castle. The specific campaign this takes place in, called “The Wise,” has the quickest path for players to follow toward the desired weapon as opposed to other campaigns. However, players should immediately don the disguise of a top-ranking guard before embarking beyond the mentioned starting point, as this insurance policy will allow them to explore the area without being questioned by the inhabitants. Furthermore, making sure to hide the guard’s body prevents questioning later. Also, it gives the player a strong firearm in case they need to shoot their way out of a sticky situation to avoid total failure of Hitman 3‘s various challenges.

How To Quickly Find a Silenced Pistol in Hitman: Freelancer

According to the Youtube channel Strontium Wolf, the side tower of the castle past the art displays on the main floor hosts the next step in this process for Agent 47, as players can either use their newfound weapon to open the door to this location forcefully or wait for another guard to pass by. The key tool to grab in this location is a Shovel, but players can also use their plan formulated to include a supply drop in this storage space to give them an additional item that could help them against their target later on.

Far below this section of Hitman 3‘s gothic level lies the main gathering of people, past the wine storage that players travel through when descending to the lower parts of the castle. Once again, using their disguise, players must move past the first entrance close to the docks, going past two guards along a path leading to a locked gate leading into an underground tunnel. A small storage shed below this area has a window that players can use to infiltrate, giving them access to another possible supply drop and a crowbar that can be used to open the gate without much sound.

A woman on the phone remains the only person in this space, but she might become the source that alerts everyone on the map to Agent 47’s presence if not dealt with quickly. A swift strike from the aforementioned Shovel mitigates this potential threat instantly. One of Hitman 3‘s best weapons lies buried under the sands here, as players can once again use the Shovel to unearth the Silenced Pistol in Hitman: Freelancer as a fast tool of assassination for the remainder of the mission.
