How to unlock the Hourglass achievement in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - Definitive Guide
There are more than 10 Santeau servers. They appear to be regular server map servers but do not count towards the Data Expert or Data Master Achievements. Use to roam the maps and check the servers by pressing . The owner, e.g. Tarvos Group, appears at the top above the server name. The Santeau servers, naturally, will have the Santeau Group name at the top. The Santeau servers can also be identified by their logo that looks like a white square with rounded corners with a large circle cut out of it near the bottom left corner.
All five servers in the fourth Darknet File count towards the achievement. They will not appear until you have unlocked the file and, to do so, you must complete the third Darknet File. So, completing, or working towards, this achievement will help in the completion of the 10 Santeau servers:
I was able to find eight Santeau servers on the server maps:
Tier 1B: S12_CAISSON
Tier 2A S21_REBAR, S22_REBAR, & S23_REBAR (Transport Data)
Tier 3A: S15_REBAR, S16_CAISSON, S17_REBAR
Tier 4A: S08_CAISSON
Accordingly, I needed two Santeau Darknet servers (DF1_CAISSON & DF2_CAISSON) to unlock this achievement. The other three Santeau Darknet servers are DF3_REBAR, DF4_CAISSON, and DF5_CAISSON. The Santeau servers are more expansive than other servers. However, they all feature an abyss so, once the conditions to clear the server are met, you can jump into the abyss to respawn at the exit point. The achievement unlocks once you clear the tenth Santeau server which may be a Santeau server on the server map or a Santeau server in the fourth Darknet file.
For this trophy you must complete 10 of the new Santeau Servers. You will complete at least 5 of them during Ashes to Ashes and Data Emperor. There are 8 new servers added from Networks 1B all the way up to Tier 4 with the rest in the Darknet File. You need to complete at least 5 of the following servers:
1B – Server 12
2A – Servers 21, 22, 23
3A – Servers 15, 16, 17
4A – Server 08
The remaining servers will be completed as part of the Santeau Darknet File, there are 5 in total.
In total there are around twelve Santeau servers spread across all four Networks. As with any server, they can easily be identified by their name plate, where "Santeau Group" is displayed alongside a white square badge icon. Keep in mind the five servers in the new Darknet File (which must be completed for "Ashes to Ashes") count towards this achievement; if you work on the new Darknet File, you will only need to complete an additional five Santeau servers.
While the Santeau servers are a little more complex in their map design, AI difficulty, and data node placement, each features a bottomless abyss. As noted by many players, you can use this map design to your advantage by deliberately jumping off the map once you reach the required amount of data collected. Doing this will place you back at the exit point for a quick extraction.
Once you have completed at least ten Santeau servers, this achievement will unlock.
Network 1B: S12_CAISSON
Network 2A S21_REBAR, S22_REBAR, & S23_REBAR
Network 3A: S15_REBAR, S16_CAISSON, S17_REBAR
Network 4A: S08_CAISSON
In total we get 8. Plus there are 5 Santo servers that are available when going through the Darknet, namely DF1_CAISSON, DF2_CAISSON, DF3_REBAR, DF4_CAISSON, and DF5_CAISSON.
Accordingly, in order not to do extra work, we first go through the Darknet file “Santo” and finish off the remaining servers from the list above.
