Points of Interest

This page lists all the Points of Interest (POI) that Adam Jensen can come across in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. POIs can be triggered in various ways. Some are obtained from speaking with characters, while others are obtained by finding clues in the game environment or in intercepted communications purchased from Kazatel in exchange for Neuropozyne. Some POIs turn into side missions while others are merely for background information (with the exception of Shooting Range Mastered, which is a small tutorial).

Shots Fired

 * "An intercepted police communication I bought from Kazatel spoke of reports of gunfire near the Chicken Foot. Gunfire in Prague isn't exactly rare these days but I could take a look at what happened if I'm passing by."

This POI is given by DATAFILE#1 purchased from Kazatel. Kazatel can be found in the small courtyard right outside Zeleň Apartments. Head to the fake police checkpoint and, using either the Klipspringer Jump Mod or the nearby lift, get onto the roof of the archway and make your way over to the balcony and enter the apartment.

Every Little Helps

 * "The Pocket Secretary from the information seller contained part of a message that mentioned a work area locked away from the public near my apartment building. It's probably nothing but there might be stuff down there worth salvaging into something useful."

This POI is given by DATAFILE#2 purchased from Kazatel. On the north side of Zeleň Apartments, look for an alley behind a Sarif Industries van and make your way through the door to enter the Underpath. If you have the EMP shielding, you can simply walk down the left side area and use the code (9002) to get in. If you do not have the EMP shielding, you can either try to run for the breaker at the end or punch the vent that is behind the large crate to get into the room.

Neighborhood Watch

 * "The message I found in the basement of the Dai Taga bar in Prekaska [sic] sounded like a local smuggling ring operating in and out of Golem. It mentioned 'the Zelen woman' so if I want to investigate, I should probably pay closer attention to my neighbors."

Go to the Dávný District of the northern part of Prague and enter the basement of the Coffee Shop that is across from the abandoned LIMB clinic. Read the pocket secretary that is lying on the table at the bottom of the stairs to start this POI. The pocket secretary will mention a "Zelen woman" involved in a smuggling ring. Head to apartment #23 over in Zeleň Apartments, which is two floors below Adam Jensen's apartment. If the marker does not update and you checked everything, head over there anyways and it should fix itself. Once you have looked around in the apartment, the POI will complete.

Shooting Range

 * "Aria Argento, TF29's quartermaster, has suggested I visit TF29's shooting range. Because, you know, practice makes perfect."

This POI is given by Aria Argento when you first enter the Task Force 29 Headquarters. She will automatically talk to Jensen when he heads up the stairs and give him his shooting range keycard so you can enter the range. Once you use the card and enter the first room, this will complete (350 XP).

Shooting Range Mastered

 * "Aria was right. It's never a bad idea to brush up the old skills."

After completing the prior POI, enter the actual shooting range and Aria will talk Jensen through a tutorial on using different ammo and mods. It will complete once you finish the last task (750 XP +100 XP for an ebook).

Note: This one has been known to have a bug where it will crash after you finish and exit the range. Some workarounds have been to empty out your inventory in the first room before entering the range (they will still be there when you finish) or skipping over the cutscene when you exit.

Rumors of a Cult

 * "It's the age of easy answers, of opportunists rising up to take advantage of society's most vulnerable. If there's some new cult operating underground, I should do whatever I can to find out about it."

When you drop into the sewers near Zeleň Apartments, there are two women near the ladder talking about people disappearing. Interacting with them will make this POI pop up. This POI leads to the mission SM02: Cult of Personality. If the mission has already been started, this POI will not trigger.

The Glitch

 * "Someone used an electronic panel to try and contact me. They knew my name and pinpointed a nearby location for us to meet."

This POI leads to the side mission SM06: 01011000. After returning from Golem City, various ad panels on the streets will glitch out when approached. Interact with the panel to start the POI.

One Last Favor

 * "Otar has extended the favor I owe him for releasing Koller's gear. He wants me to talk to the owner of the Red Queen, a woman named Masa Kadlek."

This POI leads to the side mission SM09: All in the Family. If you completed SM04: The Calibrator by making a deal with Otar Botkoveli AND, during M7: The Rucker Extraction, you dealt with Louis Gallois by sparing or killing him, Otar Botkoveli to initiate this POI, which leads to a visit to Máša Kadlek at the Red Queen.

Mystery Stalker

 * "I found pictures of me and Alex pinned to the wall of an apartment, next to a map with a circled location on it. Could be trouble brewing for us there. Better check it out."

There is a second floor apartment, belonging to Miloš Awadalla, near Sobchak Security that can be reached in a few different ways. Get inside and examine the interesting photos on the wall to start the POI. Now make your way to Rose’s Garden to see what is going on. On the roof of the business you will see a suspicious police officer, Miloš. Get to the roof and confront him. To get him to back down, either "turn the tables" twice on him or use "reason" then "turn tables", otherwise he will attack you. Once Miloš has been dealt with, the POI will finish.

Rich Man Poor Aug

 * "An anonymous Pocket Secretary from Kazatel contained a message from the Palisade bank talking about someone with plenty of money but no love for Augs. They live in the rich apartment above the "rabbit" in Cisty. Maybe it's time they be a better person and give some charity to a needy non-natural."

This POI is given by DATAFILE#4 purchased from Kazatel, who is now in a courtyard near Ludvik’s Lounge. The destination is Oleg Drago's apartment, which is above the magic shop Negozio di Magia. There are a few ways to get up there: Enter the apartment to finish the POI. In the apartment, there is a datastick hidden behind the television. Reading the apartment owner's e-mails reveals he is opening an account at Palisade Property Bank, and the datastick includes a complete biometric identification profile of him. As long as the Account Manager, Tomas Romanek, has not been knocked out prior to your second visit to Prague, he can be talked to in Palisade to give you access to the VIP safes on Level 1. When you talk to him, he will assume that you are Oleg Drago, the owner of the datastick.
 * One way is to head to the Magia shop and then go around to where the station is. Remote hack the ladder to the billboard to then jump over to the ledge with the flags. Now sprint towards the opposite balcony and jump for it. Do it right and Jensen will land on the fence.
 * If you have the charged Icarus Dash, you can get up by using the hat above the Magia shop's entrance.
 * You can jump on top of the station's cover, then onto the lamp near the Magia shop, then from there to the balcony.
 * You can get to the apartment by climbing the platforms in market square, and then jumping onto a platform leading a south-facing window of the apartment. You can then shoot the glass to break it to enter the apartment.
 * You can jump from the glass cover of the Metro station, then onto the Metro station sign, then from there to a ledge below the balcony.

Good Cop Bad Cop

 * "Another faceless message from Kazatel, the information seller. Hopefully I'm not wasting my time checking out small leads like this. The Pocket Secretary he gave me mentioned a cop up to something mysterious in Prague. Why am I not surprised? The cop was talking with someone named Jacinta and mentioned an apartment near Maxime's above the cleaning place."

This POI is given by DATAFILE#5 purchased from Kazatel, who is now in a courtyard near Ludvik’s Lounge. The apartment in question is near the cleaning business and is tricky to get into without the right augmentations. There are several ways to get in:
 * Use remote hacking to unfold the ladder to the nearby billboard and climb up, then try to get Jensen right on top of the fence nearest the apartment. You will see a metal awning on the building between you and the apartment. Jump to that one, then you can easily jump over to the apartment. Enter to complete the POI.
 * Jump to Police car and balcony of Maxime (fine cousine), Green Air arc and get in through balcony door and enter to complete the POI

The apartment belongs to Gerard Romero, a cop who was trying to help someone named Paulina Machieraldo, but he has run into unfortunate trouble of his own. There is no way to let Paulina and the others in the sewers near Zeleň Apartments know what happened to Romero when she asks. It is unclear if this is a bug or was left out in the final game.

Dead Drop

 * "Alex hid a pocket secretary containing information on Marchenko in a trash bin near my meeting spot with Janus. Just have to look for a familiar chalk mark near the Central Plaza metro."

Once you complete M8: Tracking Down the Real Terrorists and M9:Checking Out the Men in Charge, Alex will contact Jensen to start M10: Facing the Enigma. She will also say she found some information on Marchenko and you can find the pocket secretary near Monument Station. Simply head down the half flight of stairs so you are just below street level to see a trash bin and some benches against the wall. Move some coffee cups in the bin to find the pocket secretary.

Too Close to Home

 * "Aria Argento said something about a murder that took place in an alley outside my apartment. When she first heard what happened - and how it happened - she was worried that it was me."

See SM10: The Harvester.

If you did not already bump into Daria Myska, Aria Argento will call Jensen regarding this when you enter southern Prague after M11: Confronting the Bomb-Maker or M12: The Heist.

Samizdat SOS

 * "I received a strange beeping message from the alternate media group Samizdat. The message included uploaded coordinates to an underground location in the Překážka district."

See SM12: K is for Každý.

Sugar Free Picus

 * "A mundane message from Kazatel appears to be a useless takeout order for a picky eater over at the Libuse Apartment building in Davny. This just in - who cares? Curiously, though, the customer in question is an employee of Picus, my favorite media company. Maybe I ~should~ do some of my own investigative reporting and catch up on the latest. What have I got to lose but my time and self-respect?"

Given by Kazatel's DATAFILE#7. Kazatel is now in an open storage unit at Libuše Apartments. Head straight up to apartment #94 of Libuše Apartments and enter to complete the POI.

Give Me a Thug

 * "An anonymous message I took from the suspicious information seller in the city appears to be from some Dvali meathead with a typical anger management problem. I'm not exactly the guest he's expecting but how can I refuse such a warm invitation? There's only one place all the Dvalis live in such harmony. I should head on over to the Red Light District and check the apartment building."

Given by Kazatel's DATAFILE#8. Head over to the Dvali Apartments and enter apartment 95 to complete the POI.
