The Germans have set up shop near a crashed bomber, hoping to scavenge some shiny Allied tech for their collection. Naturally, it’s your job to ruin their day — and their plans. In this Sniper Elite: Resistance mission, you’ll zipline, snipe, and sabotage your way through enemy territory, proving once again that their alarms are basically just suggestions.

Whether you prefer picking off guards one by one or leaving a trail of explosions in your wake, this mission has plenty of opportunities for fun. Just remember: the Germans may be organized, but they’re no match for your ingenuity (or your trigger finger). Let’s get in there and remind them why they should’ve stuck to their own toys.
Destroy Salvaged Bouncing Bomb Technology
When you spawn, start by using the zipline to cross the initial gap. Climb up the cliffside using the vines, then follow the trail to your objective. You’ll come across a small village. Before entering, use your binoculars from the vantage point to mark enemies, making it easier to snipe or avoid them. Then, enter the village and take out any remaining enemies.
On the southern edge of this village, there is a two-story building with a padlocked door on the second floor. Exit this building and use the vines on the outer walls to climb into the second-story room where you’ll find a pistol workbench.
Afterward, make your way through the village toward the objective to destroy the salvaged technology.
The first piece of tech is located on the west side of the marked objective near a tunnel. Before engaging, disable the alarm on the east side of the large building here to avoid drawing reinforcements. Shoot the glowing red section of the technology to destroy it, but be aware this will alert nearby enemies. You can either engage or retreat to lose the heat.
Here, head to the northwestern corner of the marked zone, where you’ll find a campsite. Lighting the campfire here will unlock an additional starting location for future playthroughs.
Finally, proceed to the northernmost section of this objective zone, where the last piece of technology can be found under a tent. There’ll be a man there guarding it, so be sure to take him out first. Then, shoot the technology to complete this objective. Before leaving, pick the lock on the nearby loot chest under the same tent to claim extra rewards. After this, make your way towards the dam.
Kill List: Ludwig Spiegel
Just as you’re crossing the dam, keep an eye out for Ludwig Spiegel, who is located on the lower south side of the dam. He’ll be standing on a wooden platform. From a ledge above, line up your shot to eliminate him from a safe distance, completing this optional kill list objective with ease.
Sabotage the Dam Repair
Continue forth past the dam to get to this optional objective. To sabotage the dam repair efforts, you’ll need to locate and disable the emergency pump.
At the far end of the dam, enter the building and descend to its lowest floor. On the south side of the building, look for stairs leading down. Before proceeding to the objective, head to the locked door in the room and either pick the lock or use bolt cutters to gain entry. Inside, you’ll find a Satchel charge. Use the charge to sabotage the pump and complete this optional objective.
You’ll also find the Rifle Workbench for this mission within the locked room where the Satchel charge is.
Eliminate All Bouncing Bomb Intelligence
After crossing the dam, begin descending on the southeastern side. Your first target, a soldier wearing a white jacket, will be there in the grassy trail. Take him out to collect the first piece of intel. As you proceed through the village, you’ll encounter a Nazi mansion. Disable the alarm on its east side.
Outside the mansion, head over the bridge and down the stairs to the train tracks. There, you’ll find a propaganda poster on the tunnel wall.
Don’t quite enter the mansion yet. In the northern section of the objective zone, search for a small house with blue shutter windows. Inside, go to the second floor and locate a safe containing the second piece of intel. Use a Satchel charge to blow it open and collect the documents.
Be cautious, as the noise may attract nearby enemies.
The third intel source is another soldier in a white jacket. He may roam, depending on your level of stealth. If you’ve drawn attention (which you likely have from the Satchel charge), he’ll likely approach the house with the blue shutters after you’ve blown up the safe. Otherwise, search near the mansion grounds to take him out.
For the fourth and final intel piece, enter the mansion and locate the basement entrance on the southern side of the house. Once inside, find a table with documents. Shoot the gas can to destroy the papers, but keep your distance to avoid the resulting explosion. After this, you’d have fully completed this objective for the mission.
Exfiltrate
There are three exfiltration points: the south end, west end, and northwest end of the map. If you’ve just finished with the bouncing bomb intelligence mission, the south exit is the most convenient. Pick the lock of the locked door in the basement of the mansion and head outside. Climb the stairs leading up, and proceed to the exfiltration zone to complete the mission.
