How to unlock the Samaritan achievement in Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow HD - Definitive Guide

Complete the game on either Normal or Hard without dying and the trophy will pop during the closing scene of the final mission. At first look this trophy looks daunting but to be honest, death is very rare in this game, especially if you play in a stealthy fashion. All you need is your common sense and remember to save regularly! If you find yourself in an avoidable gun battle then simply reload your save. I can not say enough about how important it is to save after dealing with every guard, it costs you nothing. Try not to be careless, look out for trip wires in the Indonesian missions (Missions 5 and 6) and look out for wall mines that feature in the odd mission. Falling foul to any of those two, is a rookie mistake! To clarify, failing a mission does not count as death but if were die, then it's game over in terms of earning this trophy unless you have a backup save which is explained bellow.

USB Drive or Playstation Plus Backup Save
To make a backup save through an External Hard Drive, simply plug it in through the USB slot at the front of your Playstation 3, then go to the Game Data Utility, access your Save Files and you will be able to copy them onto your hard drive. If you do, unfortunately, die, then delete your Save and transfer your backup to the Hard Drive. You can also do it via Playstation Plus, providing you have a subscription. Please refer to this thread on how to make a backup save via PS+ (credit to Terminator for this): LINK

There are a few tricky areas whereby it is unavoidable not to engage in an armed battle:

  • Killing the two guard in the middle of Mission 2 (Paris) who are destroying the computers.
  • Going down to the Basement after parting ways with Dahlia during Mission 4 (Jerusalem).
  • Right at the end of Mission 7 (Jakarta) when attempting to apprehend Sadono during his TV Speech.
  • During the final mission, just before the game's climax, you will have to climb the elevator shaft.


These are high-risk areas, where engaging gun battles is likely if not probable. Therefore at these points during the game, it may be wise to do a backup save in case you do die.
