How To Find Every workbench In Sniper Elite: Resistance

In Sniper Elite: Resistance, your gun is your best friend. While it can protect you from the Nazis and put a stop to the Kleine Blume project, you in turn need to look after it by finding various upgrades scattered throughout each level.

By unlocking workbenches, you’ll receive attachments for your rifle, SMG, and pistol that can make them quieter, harder-hitting, reduce their recoil, or even improve their rate of fire. Get the best loadout by finding all three workbenches in each campaign mission.

This guide uses up, down, left, and right in place of north, south, west, and east. This is because the map screen isn’t rotated to be pointing north, as the minimap in the bottom corner is.

Behind Enemy Lines

As the very first mission, Behind Enemy Lines only has the one workbench, and it’s found more or less right in the direct path of the mission.

Pistol Workbench

After pressurising the dam, head into the barn and take down the wooden planks to your left

This is the only workbench in this mission.

Dead Drop

The pistol workbench in Dead Drop is one of the trickiest to find in the entire game, simply because it’s so easy to miss the entrances to its tunnel. The other two are quite easy to get to, though, to make up for it.

Pistol Workbench

Head to the northeastern end of the city, and from the city walls you’ll be able to see a tunnel going underground. Head inside and unpick the gate for the workbench.

SMG Workbench

Pick the lock of the gate in the inner courtyard of the large castle. It can be accessed from both the large, main courtyard and the quieter garden for a stealtheir entrance.

Rifle Workbench

Go behind the building at the bottom left of the map to find stairs leading to the first floor. Kill or avoid the soldier and gestapo agent, and pick the lock to the gate leading to the workbench.

Sonderzuge Sabotage

Despite its intimidating size, the workbenches in Sonderzuge Sabotage are relatively simple to get to. Simply grab the SMG workbench, then work your way along the larger bridge to grab the pistol bench, and then swing down to the wharf for the rifle bench.

Pistol Workbench

In the smaller building with a green roof and green interior walls in the train station. Pick the gate and go upstairs.

SMG Workbench

Pick the lit, blue door down the steps from where a gestapo agent and a soldier are talking on the south side of the river.

Rifle Workbench

On the wharf on the far side of the river, by the Claude La Ronde Kill List objective. There is a large, well-lit brick building with the workbench on the far side.

Collision Course

Unfortunately, the workbench you found last time you were at the dam in Behind Enemy Lines has been removed. Collision Course instead offers three benches in new places.

Pistol Workbench

As you come into the abandoned village, climb the vines into the top floor of the resistance building and climb through the open window.

SMG Workbench

In the train station, pick the lock for the gate and climb down the ladder. It is in on the right wall of the large room.

Rifle Workbench

Devil’s Cauldron

Devil’s Cauldron is one of the trickiest maps to navigate, with its multiple levels and large cliff faces breaking up the area. Getting all three workbenches is equally arduous, as one is near the main objective of the mission.

Pistol Workbench

Inside the Kleine Blume production facility, behind a locked door. Either find the Factory Armoury Key on a nearby officer or blow it with a satchel charge to get in.

There is an air vent in the next room that also leads into the workbench room, if you are able to crawl through it.

SMG Workbench

From the starting location, continue up the road and take the first right to find a path leading to a tunnel. The workbench is through a door directly ahead of you.

Rifle Workbench

Pick the locked door in the church and go down the stairs. If you haven’t already, don’t forget to pick up the propaganda poster on the outside wall of the church.

Assault On Fort Rouge

You’ll need to work through most of the mission to get all three workbenches in Assault on Fort Rouge, with the rifle bench being found almost at the very end.

Pistol Workbench

In the grounds of the church by the town hall, there is a large, brick shed. Pick the door and the workbench is inside.

There is an optional objective in the church, so complete that while you’re here.

SMG Workbench

In the central-right part of the city, between the bombed-out buildings, are stairs that lead down underground. Either blast the door with a satchel charge or pry the planks loose (depending on which entrance you found) to find the workbench.

Rifle Workbench

In the fort, head into the underground Kleine Blume storage facility. In a corridor off the side of the main warehouse, the door to the room with the workbench in needs blowing open with a satchel charge, or unlocking with the key found on the nearby officer.

Lock, Stock, And Barrels

All three workbenches in Lock, Stock, And Barrels can be found without setting foot in the mansion, if you start from the Western Farmhouse and work your way clockwise around the map.

Pistol Workbench

Just next to the V1 rocket launching facility is a bunker building with a green ladder on the wall. Climb it and head through the door to find the workbench.

SMG Workbench

Climb the ladder in the brick barn on the far right of the map, by the Western Farmhouse starting position.

Rifle Workbench

In the bottom right of the map, climb the vines on the building with the watermill and climb through the window. The same wall also has a Propaganda mission poster.

End Of The Line

The final mission is one of the game’s biggest. Fortunately, End of the Line’s workbenches are largely in a straight line, so you can hit up each one as you progress through the mission.

The ‘true’ final mission, All Or Nothing, doesn’t have any workbenches.

Pistol Workbench

In the more rural bottom half of the map, in the centre, find an abandoned resistance building. Climb the vines and shimmy along to reach the top floor, then climb down the ladder into the barn to reach the workbench.

SMG Workbench

In the top left of the map, there is a medium-sized warehouse with internal walkways you can climb up to. Follow them round, and go through the door to find the workbench at the end of a long room.

Rifle Workbench

In the large train station in the centre of the map (where you trap the central zugwerfer), continue up to the second floor and either unlock or blow the door in the right-hand corner.
