Factory Zero

Factory Zero is an achievement/trophy in The Missing Link DLC for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It is earned by completing the DLC without upgrading augmentations and using found weapons.

Overview
Factory Zero, like Pacifist and Foxiest of the Hounds achievements in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, requires adhering to a specific playstyle from the start of the game until the ending credits.

As the achievement description says, you must fulfill these requirements throughout the whole DLC:
 * Do not allocate any Praxis points, no matter how they were acquired: through level up or after collecting a Praxis kit.
 * Do not fire any weapons. Non-lethal and lethal take-downs do not count and can be used freely.
 * Do not throw grenades or place mines.

You can:


 * Throw red explosive barrels (tested at a crate) and fire extinguishers. Probably gas canisters too.
 * Pick up all items safely and sell them. However, it is not necessary to sell anything, because the starting credits (2500) are more than enough to buy all energy boosters and extra health items in the shop.
 * Items include:
 * Praxis kits
 * Rocket launcher parts for the Quinn's Scavenger Hunt side-quest.
 * Quest items: Burke's eye, Data Storage Devices and the Trauma Kit.
 * Use healing and energy restoring items.
 * Equip, aim, upgrade and reload weapons.
 * Equip explosives.
 * Trigger explosive wall mines.
 * (?) Trigger typhoon turrets.
 * Get compromised and set off alarms, although that would make your mission considerably harder. You should try your best to keep a low profile and stay undetected throughout.

Strategy

 * 1) Stealth
 * 2) Aggressive
