Sniper Elite V2 Walkthrough Part 8 – Opernplatz

Get to Opernplatz
Head forward around the corner so you can get a clear view of the end of the street. There you will find a small squad of soldiers milling about and patrolling. Wait for an explosion in the background and start taking them out one by one. It is more than possible to get a shot or two off in a single burst so take advantage of that.

Move forward until you reach the alleyway between two buildings on the right. Head all the way to the end of it to find a Gold Bar. Head into the house nearby to reach Opernplatz. There is a single guard patrolling the front of the building. Deal with him then climb the stairs on this side of the building all the way to the top. There, in the bookcase by the window, you will find another Gold Bar. Head down a floor and cross over to the other side. Be sure to pick off the guard who is in the way. Now head back up the stairs to the top floor. Head over to the open window and you are at the best vantage point possible for the plaza below. Time to start picking off soldiers.

There are 5 soldiers spread around the plaza to start. 2 patrol the center of the plaza while another pair is in the back of it. One is off to the left by the pillars and one above him on the roof there, a sniper. Pick them off one at a time during the explosions in the background. For those patrolling the center, wait for statues to be between them. Pick off the one to the left at any time. The ones in the back are the trickiest as they like to keep each other in sight. Take one down then let the other run over to his downed friend. A perfect chance for you to take him out as well.

Reach the Vantage Point
Head on out of the building you are in. Pause on the second floor and look out the window. Focus on the overhang with the pillars to the left. There, on top of it, is a Sniper. Take him out quickly. Now look at the direct opposite building. Along the top balcony is another sniper. Use your binoculars to locate him then switch to your rifle to take him out. It is a tough shot thanks to the shadows he is in. Now look over to the objective marker, the building with the hole in its corner. There is a final sniper positioned there. Take him out then exit the building you were in.

Head forward and to the right, over to the open library on the right. As you enter, a pair of soldiers will appear so get into cover and pull out your SMG to take them out. Now take the stairs up to the left. Go through the open door that is a bit ahead of you. Continue into the next open room of the library. You will find an ammo drop in the room nearby a hole in the building. Now head to the left of the stairs and over into far corner of the room. There you will find another Gold Bar. With that, head over to the vantage point to press on forward with the story.
