Breach: Complete the PICUS Darknet File.

How to unlock the Camera, Action, Red-Handed achievement in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - Definitive Guide

Now, the Darknet File itself isn't particularly difficult. The PICUS servers rely on tricky gimmicks like hidden walls and platforms rather than brute force of enemies. What was difficult was the pre-requisite server S02_STOCKADE in \\NETWORK_4A, which you need to complete to access \DF4_BYLINE for the Darknet File.

This one is very challenging, and you'll likely need several attempts to get a pattern down. I was working with 550 energy and 350 health (before modifiers) and quite a few Biocells and Hypostims and I still barely made it out, even despite several attempts. What makes this especially difficult is this server has a 300%+ and a 200%+ Machine Pistol cheat modifier, preventing you from adding any of your own. And you really don't want to be fighting on this server.

I think it's disingenuous to give exact gear road-maps, since a lot of gear that you personally will have will depend on RNG. So the best and only advice I can give is plan a route and focus on just cloaking the whole way -- and then when you run out of Biocells, rely on tanking hits and replenishing via Hypostims. I'd also highly recommend an Energy Max + Cheat Modifier to give you that extra amount of energy. Don't hack anything that isn't hiding a data server, don't go anywhere that doesn't have a data server, don't deal with enemies at all, and try and stave off alarms for as long as you can.

You need 60 TB to finish it, and there's only 100 available. There's an absurd amount of defenses and annoyingly guarded data towers (like, behind glass for example, or inside of data/energy/life sapping floor traps. To make matters even worse, from personal experience... the very first time I was successful, the exit didn't open for some reason. It just never opened. Which was annoying. Hopefully that doesn't happen to you.

Thumbs up. For S02_STOCKADE, I recommend jumping to the top of the glass roof right in the beginning. You can extract data from the hanging stores while staying above the flying enemies. From a vantage point of safety on the roof, you can scout out the other stores and do quick raids against them. I didn't do anything fancy--no weapons & just loaded up on HP expansion kits. I went from data store to data store as quickly as possible using the safety of the glass rooftop as a base of operations.

I didn't think it was bad with some energy expansions. We've faced much worse. Great guide though. Got my upvote.

A friend of mine asked me for a video guide for S02_Stockade so I made one:

https://youtu.be/Pq7M3i4mQi0

The video is a little different from how I usually do it. I usually do not go after the 5TB store right underneath the breach point because it's a little out of the way and takes longer. However, it's a little safer than getting the one in front of you right after you break the second wall in the route I use. So, I showed the safer route where you get the 5TB underneath the Breach Point as the second downloaded store. Note that the second breakable wall is elevated so you have to jump up to it.

There's also a fairly common glitch that seems to occur when you have upgraded energy / energy expansion packs and you do a map with augmentations disabled. I've glitched my energy above 4000 this way.

It looks like you've completed Darknet Files one through four since you have the Ashes to Ashes achievement for completing the Santeau Darknet File which is #4. Have you tried clicking on the globe at the top of the screen for accessing the Darknet files? Other than that, I can't think why you would not have access to \DF4_BYLINE.

Right!! I thought I'm going crazy! Yeah on the globe tab it says "CASE LOCKED: Breach additional server nodes to reveal Darknet Files". Is there away to reset breach without losing all your progress! Any ideas?!? These are the last two achievements I need for this bloody breach mode.
First, sorry I pressed the wrong button &, since I am a moderator, that resulted in accidentally deleting your post, so I quoted your post above.

Second, your progress is tied to your GamerTag so you cannot reset it and I don't believe it should be necessary. I assume you have completed all previous Darknet Files--verify this by looking at the globe icon. I am assuming you have since you got the Ashes to Ashes achievement for completing the fourth Darknet File (Santeau).

It might have something to do with your completion rate. I remember when the first Breach Title update came out, I could not jump immediately to Tier 4 even though I had cleared all servers in Tier 3. In addition to clearing the servers, there was a completion percentage that I also had to meet. Once I met that percentage, Tier 4 unlocked. I now have completed servers on all tiers. I'll make a video of the four tier maps, tomorrow, if that will help.

Also I went ahead and cleared every other node in Network 4A and still nothing!

This may be a long shot but, if I were you, I would redo the Fourth Darknet Case, the Santeau File. I would also choose the opposite course of action at the end from how I did it the first time. When I, myself, did the Darknet File I was altruistic and honest. I completed the whole file and did not steal the money. It's possible that doing a second run of the Santeau File would unlock the Picus Darknet Case.

So I got really excited I'm not entirely sure how you would "replay" a darknet file but I did notice DF5_CAISSON was not completed so surely this would unlock it once I completed it right....warning. Nope again didn't happen. But I think regardless completing that would have tested your theory and that we are missing some other trigger.

Right I get how to access the globe and everything. I guess what I'm not understanding is how to replay a Darknet file. I get I can go and replay nodes and get better times/ higher scores and what not, but as far as initiating a conversation and dialog options to actually change the outcome of the file. How do you do that??

By Star1ord89 on 26 Mar 2017 04:07
I believe all you have to do is click on the globe and select a case you have already done. That will initiate the replay. I'm away from home now and can't check but I will do so tomorrow morning when I get back with more specific directions if you need them.

Also, the more I think of it, the more I am convinced that this is the most likely solution to your issue. I believe if you accept the client's request and play DF5_CAISSON that it will remove the block against the Picus Darknet File. I know replaying the Santeau File is tedious and I can't guarantee that it is the solution but I believe this is your best chance.

WOAH I THINK I GOT IT!!! Feel free to delete whatever isn't helpful to the solution but the starting node should be noted is in Network_1A under S09 Stockade. Or at least thats where it was for me!!

Is that S10_BYLINE by any chance? If so, that would make sense because S10_BYLINE is a PICUS server. Anyway, congratulations. I see you have completed this achievement & A Heist of Olympic Proportions to wrap up Breach Mode Update for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

BTW, if you feel inclined to do A Criminal Past for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, I have provided a complete walkthrough both narrative and video. The walkthrough begins with this guide: Solution for Quid Pro Quo In Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

The walkthrough follows a very efficient path. and gets you all ten achievements in a little over an hour. If you're just interested in the video walkthrough, the YouTube playlist can be found here:

I'll be helping out on the official TA walkthrough & I thought I'd get a head start with Criminal Past. So, it's quite detailed and is structured to provide a very efficient and rapid playthrough--if I may say so myself.

I did it first try, S02 in Network 4 that is.

Had 1,200 energy from expansion kits and was level 52. Turned cloak on and ran around grabbing all the towers easily. Got out with 50 seconds left. I recommend not getting the ones behind glass cause you must uncloack to shoot an explosive and break it. Simply run around cloaked and you'll be fine. Also, for any towers in the static debuff energy zones simply get on top of them, crouch, and slowly back off spamming X to download them without needing to bring a box over.

I seem to be having an issue; I completed S02_Stockade, and have done all other Darknet Files, yet this one is not showing for me. I can see the node it's supposed to be on, but it's blank. Any advice?

To clarify what I wrote above, there is no right or wrong way to do the Santeau File. I know people who have done opposing approaches and have 100% completion. I'm just suggesting that if you do the opposite of what you did earlier, it may trigger unlocking the 5th Darknet File. Moreover, just completing the fourth Darknet File again, regardless of your choices, it may trigger unlocking the 5th Darknet File.

You can replay any Darknet File by going up and selecting the globe icon. There's a difference between completing the servers that are included in the file and the file itself. If you replay the file, itself, you get the complete story again along with the dialog choices.

If I understood you correctly, you completed the fourth Darknet File but did not do DF5_CAISSON. This is very possible and may have resulted in the problem you are experiencing. This is how I recollect the case:

When you complete DF4_CAISSON, the client asks you to do something. You can accept or refuse. If you accept, you do DF5_CAISSON. If you refuse, you can complete the Santeau Darknet case without having to do DF5_CAISSON. This still gets you the Ashes to Ashes achievement but may have resulted in the Picus Darknet File refusing to unlock.

My recommendation is to replay the Santeau Darknet case. This time, make sure you accept the client's request and do DF5_CAISSON as part of the story. I believe this will unlock the PICUS Darknet File.

Using expansion items. You might note that in several of my Breach Mode for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided guides I recommend first working on the following achievement:

Deus Ex: Mankind DividedExcess Baggage FeesThe Excess Baggage Fees achievement in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided worth 124 pointsBreach: Complete a server using 6 Expansion Items at once.

It helps to work on or complete this achievement before some of the others. The expansion items you get by doing this achievement level your avatar up by an order of magnitude. The increase is permanent (so long as the expansion items are in your loadout). WhiterValkyrie has a very good guide that should help figure out how to get the achievement.

If you wait a few days, you'll get a lot of HP, energy, and GB expansion items through victory packs. I'll continue to send you challenges until you feel you are properly equipped.

Breach Picus adds a new Darknet File with 4 new Darknet servers to hack. To start the Picus Darknet files you have to first beat the previous Darknet file servers. Once you've done that and completed all 4 Picus Darknet servers and completed the conversation with Shadowchild, the trophy will pop.

Before you can begin working on the new PICUS Darknet File, you must first complete all three previous Darknet Files from the base game and the Santeau Darknet File from the first Breach Update. The Darknet servers in this new file are as follows:

  • DF1_BYLINE
  • DF2_EMBARGO
  • DF3_EMBARGO
  • DF4_BYLINE

As with the previous Breach update, these new servers are a little more complicated in their design - hidden doors within walls, and invisible floors that can only be seen with specific augmentations are just two complex design examples. Moreover, the enemy AI is quite strong. If you need to stock up on ammo/Booster Packs, or XP for new augmentations, then be sure to grind out credits by farming daily challenges. In my experience, it's best to equip Expansion Items that help boost your Energy, utilize the Titan aug when taking fire from enemy AI, and rely on the Glass Shield aug to sneak around enemies as to avoid combat altogether.

Once you complete the final server in the case and the Picus newscasts concludes, the achievement will unlock.

To open a PIK case on the Darknet, you need to sequentially close all previous cases, namely Versalife , Steiner Beasley , Tarvos and Santo Group . After that, look for the “PIK” server on the Network Network_3A .

If you can't find the node to start Part 5 of the Darknet (like I did), look for it in "NETWORK_1A", almost at the very bottom of the map.
