F THIS MISSION!!!!!
Choice of weapons is important. I use a PKM, M79 Grenade Launcher, RPG and STG 90. Approach from the road and lay mines and a C4 charge on the gates.Use Grappling Hooks to approach the site under cover. When everything kicks off detonate the C4 then use the RPG to take out the sniper on the top level. Shoot the RA soldiers with the PKM and hurl Molotovs at them then climb to the upper level killing anyone as you go. Use the M79 to destroy trucks as they appear and/or the RPG to take down the chopper. Reload your ammo on the top level and kill the sniper who appears on your left with the RPG.
* Obviously craft your holsters so you have maximum ammo and ignore anything like Karma Events on the way to the site which will simply waste ammo.
This works on the PC version.
Assuming you've cleared area and defused the bombs.
Drop a few mines on your way up the stairs.
Then, before the waves start run over to the left ,(assuming you are facing back down the hill) and hide behind the big statue. There is a nice ledge there which you have to climb up onto. No one can see you here and you can just pick soldiers off as they come up the steps without having to worry about being outflanked which happens if you stay on the gallery level where the bomb was located.
There will be one soldier who will come over the top behind the statue (the sniper) so kepp alert for that but the rest of the time its like shooting fish in a barrel. Even when the helicopter shows up it will never get into a position where it can shoot you. You actually have to duck out of cover to attack the helo.
This mission has been described as too hard before, but I find it's more that a lot of people go into this game hastily vs building up their bags and weapons first. Laying down mines can really help, and how many you have depends on how much hunting you've done. You can also get the M79 fairly early on for free just by hunting the rare demon fish. How many M79 grenades you can carry is also determined by how much you've hunted. Another nice thing to have is the Recurve Bow with Marksman Sight and Exploding Arrows. The bow is great for hunting and again, the number of exploding arrows you can carry is determined by how much hunting you've done. This plus a halfway decent assault rifle going in, and a sniper rifle to take out the guy up top, are all you need to rain down hell on the waves that come. Save 3 or 4 exploding arrows for the choppers.
There is a cave down the hill on the left hand side under the building complex. Enter the building through there and sit and wait for them all to come to you and pick them off.
After getting all the badies, go out through the building to the front and shoot down the copters.
I have done this both ways now and once you crack it it is easy. What I can't do is the second request to block off the access to the statue. I have tried everything to climb that cliff.
I even went and got a buzzer but that peaked out for height.
Anyone help me find a way to the top?
