We’re in the final stretch, with only 3 orders left before we’ve completed all of our objectives. Our last infusion of Sim Points has given us enough to afford all the upgrades we need to finally complete “the run”.
The horizon is in sight, and it’s time to cross it into a new frontier.

Honestly, the real trick of the “final run”, such as it is, comes in the preparation. All I did was follow through on the plan I had set out for myself at the end of Part 3. There is some tension involved due to tight time windows and execution, but a couple of well-timed Delay Loops to keep Corruption Levels low, and prevent enemies from respawning, ensuring a safe and easy escape.
Less safe and easy was the final story mission, and capstone to our time in the simulation. Admittedly, no small part of that was my own doing. The last part would have been significantly easier had I spent fewer Neuromods on Typhon upgrades for the “Volunteer”. Typhon lures could have easily cleared the way for me in that even.
On the bright side, I now know that Burrow gets around barriers, so I assume that is the “intended” method for completing the quest when all else fails and RNG just doesn’t go our way.
It’s a lesson learned, especially as we move on to the next game in our schedule. I’m beyond excited to start Deathloop, and I hope you are too.
