How to unlock the Darker Shades achievement in DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION - Definitive Guide

Storyline related. You can miss the speech challenge (and the achievement) if you don't talk to the upstairs bartender, but instead eavesdrop on from the duct that goes past Tong's office.

As with all of the speech related challenges in this game, there is no one solution, and the dialogue varies. So, what worked for you may not always work.

If you fail this speech challenge you won't get invited to Tong's office, and therefore have to force the story along by overhearing a conversation via the vents that pass alongside the office. Besides getting this achievement, there is also one of the XP books (for Doctorate achievement) in Tong's office, which you won't have access to unless you pass this challenge.

I answered "pinpoint" all three times and got the achievement/XP. However, the biofeedback graph showed the last one as being incorrect.

It is missable as I did not converse with him. I eavesdropped through the vents to trigger the continuation of the mission.

Pinpoint, pinpoint, insist (without the social augment) did the trick for me.

As no one seems to have mentioned it yet you MUST search the hacker apartment (main mission) before the bartender upstairs even shows up. Would've saved me about 20 minutes running around this stupid club.

Please incorporate NINja277's feedback. I also wasted time trying to do this mission the first time I found the club.

You can miss this by triggering the cutscene in the vents by Tong's office, as DrJekl mentioned, and by completing the Bar Tab side mission before speaking to the 'Manager' a second time (just found that out the hard way without a save to revert back to).

Missable! Tong is the Manager in Hive. You can only find him there after you've completed the Story Mission in Hengsha Court Gardens. Do NOT sneak in via the sewers or vents in the back alley because you'll overhear a conversation and Jensen will deem you've achieved your Story Objective. You will need to grab a Hive Membership card in 1st room of the 3rd Floor of Hong Hua Hotel to enter without conflicts. Alternatively you can bribe your way into the club if you have 1,000 credits to spare or just simply threaten the bouncer outside the club.

Tong is on the 2nd Floor Bar and will engage you in Social Battle. The correct sequence varies depending on your playstyle. Possible answers are:

  • Pinpoint, Pinpoint, and Advise
  • Pinpoint, Advise, and Pinpoint.
  • Pinpoint, Insist, and Pinpoint

*Save*

Note: There's two ways into the night club; Around the back through the vents or through the front door if you have a pass or bribe. Going via the vent route, will give you a cutscene to the location of Tong. This will then make you miss out on actually talking to the bartender and this achievement plus a later E-Book.

In Shanghai, head towards 'The Hive' nightclub. Once inside, head up to bar and ask for Mr. Tong and the bartender will tell you to go upstairs and talk to the other bartender. Once you've found him at the other bar, you'll need to convince him to give Tong's position up. Before you talk to him make a save then start the conversation. Answer with correct reponses below and the achievement will unlock at the end.

  • Pinpoint
  • Insist
  • Pinpoint

Select "Get Attention" three times and the bartender will let you through to Tong.

I just want to add that in addition to the 3rd choice, pay attention, the 4th choice should be advised.

Playing through the game in 2014, I say: the two tips above are incorrect. At least for the regular version of the game, I don’t know what’s in the Director’s Cut. A hint from RUS IVAN URAL helped me

If you have KASI (social corrector), then in the 2nd option you can convince Tong. In the 1st option you need to select “Focus”, and in the 2nd option we use KASI to persuade ALPHA (pacification).
