Smuggler's Lair

Smuggler's Den is the compound of the arms merchant Smuggler in New York in 2052. By the end of JC Denton's third visit to New York in Deus Ex, it is presumed that Smuggler's compound is raided by UNATCO, with assistance from Gunther Hermann, and is no longer operational by the end of the raid.

Overview
Smuggler's hideout is located near the entrance way of the subway station to Battery Park, hidden from plain sight. Going down the stairs and pressing the button pages Smuggler, who will then ask for a password. If Paul Denton does not give you the password prior to your visit, then he will tell you to go away, and will stop responding the third or fourth time you press it. The password required to gain entry is "bloodshot", most likely a reference to Smuggler's criminal operations. There are two ways to gain entry into Smuggler's hideout, both determining the dialogue you receive when you initiate conversation with Smuggler.

The compound is lightly fortified by some booby traps, namely a 100101 small security bot behind a door that will open when the player happens to walk through the tripwires into the inner area. The bot will immediately shoot on sight, but when the player becomes allied with Smuggler, it no longer fires upon you.

Layout
Smuggler's Den is hidden from plain sight, presumably because of Smuggler's criminal operations and arms trafficking. A basic lift lowers you down into what seems to be a derelict parking garage, converted into both a flat and a fortified warehouse. A tripwire lines two walls between you and the entrance into Smuggler's living area which, upon triggering, sets a security bot free that will open fire upon you as soon as it has a line of sight on you. It is relatively easy to avoid however, so long as you can get into the other room in time, as it becomes allied with you by default upon invoking conversation with Smuggler.

The den's living area contains a bed, a few shelves, and Smuggler's computer. When UNATCO conducts a raid against Smuggler's Den upon suspicion that he is harboring Paul Denton, it isn't apparent where every entrance is, as sirens are heard from outside. There are multiple ways to gain entry into the outer area, however.
