regarding the change in trivia
Malik means "proprietor" like a person who owns alot of lands, businesses, investments...

Mallek means king.

This is simply not true. Malik means king and is an extremely common last name in Arabic-speaking countries and throughout the Muslim world. The word that means proprietor is Maalik with a long a, and I have never seen it used as a last name. Mallek is not a word in Arabic and doesn't mean anything.

I don't quite see why the revolver is described as so efficiant - the upgraded 10mm pistol can kill the heavies with ONE headshot.

Just as an added method, I just finished saving her at the cost of 2 Typhoon rounds (one for the heavies and one for the bot) and a bit of rifle ammo. I was awfully surprised that it worked, but I had left my frags and EMPs in Detroit and was improvising. Marstinson 06:10, September 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Because that requires lining up a headshot while under extremely heavy fire, versus getting far easier torso shots with a weapon that stuns them even if it doesn't kill them. The revolver is very quick, very reliable, and requires little precision or skill to kill everyone before Malik dies. You can't honestly say the same of the pistol. 2.24.36.109 08:37, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Pacifist way of saving her
I really don't see the problem with it, as it's very, very easy on normal difficulty (not tried on hard yet). And I really don't see what else one could write: You switch cloaking on, start running, start stunning. End of story. You don't become visible when attacking, so your only problems are the guys firing at your last known position (so keep moving) and low battery status (so keep eating). Oh, and I've seen a gras grenade on my first try (when I simply shot everyone) but not on my second (when I stunned everyone). I don't think it's a specific event here, just one of the tactics the AI may or may not use.


 * The only time I saw a gas effect was when the helicopter exploded. And what are you stunning them with, exactly? A weapon or takedowns? If it's takedowns, you must be carrying nothing but huge tubs of weight gain 4000. Edit: Wait, seriously, the stun gun? 2.24.36.109 10:14, September 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, the gas effect I saw was way before that, one of the enemies actually threw a gas grenade. And yes, seriously, the stun gun - the only weapon I ever need (ok, EMP grenades are nice for bots and the bosses are a completely different game, but you know what I want to say :-). Pretty easy to use. Here's a video of someone doing it - not very skilled, admitedly, someone with more skill could do it much quicker and easier, but it shows the general idea (and as I said, it's extremely simple in normal mode - will test it on hard as soon as I get there in my current game).194.95.197.20 10:41, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Move tactics to walkthrough?
I'd propose moving the information on how to save her to the appropriate walkthrough (Find Vasili Sevchenko's GPL Device) as it is a discussion of tactics and not character-specific information. If nobody objects I'll try to remember to do it in a couple of days.

 * Sounds like a good idea, I would just keep a link to the appropriate part of the walkthrough in the page, because many peope who have trouble saving her will probably start with searching for her name.--Irian 07:00, September 6, 2011 (UTC)

Getting to the Elevator before she dies...
And killing Narhari Kahn, results in what? I'm interested in this because it says she gets executed by him, but you can kill him before this? Eternity08 14:49, October 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'll have a go at confirming on my next play-through, though it might take a while so someone do feel free to beat me to it! I expect the assumption is that she is killed anyway by some other Belltower operative, as they aren't exactly known for being upstanding citizens, so it's probably the same outcome, but you won't get the cutscene? Just a guess anyway, but I'm pretty sure the only way to save her is to actually deal with the enemies.Haravikk 14:41, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
