Act 2:2 - Geared Up | Walkthrough Gears of War 4 Guide

Available achievements: Welcome home, Stop Hitting Yourself

Number of secrets: 3

Shoot down the chopper by damaging its engines

You will start this part in the armory. You will receive an armor, you can also choose any two weapons and grenades. Our recommendation is the Custom Lancer because its saw provides you with deadly melee attacks. You need to get rid of the chopper. Attack one of its engines (near the rotor, they glow red), then another one (after the cutscene). Use all the ammo you want - after you destroy the vehicle, you will be able to go back and refill it or change weapons.

One of the secrets is in the side room

There is a room with a fireplace in front of the balcony where you regrouped. There is a painting in front of the fireplace. Go two floors down while destroying some robots. There is a document in the basement, to the left from where James will move the chest of drawers.

The final fights will take place in the square behind the basement and in the greenhouse. Be careful in the former, because nearly all covers can be destroyed. Try not to rush into the enemy forces.

Look to your left in the burning warehouse - there is a bottle behind the cover

The penultimate part of the level is the barrel storage. You need to fight against many enemies, including two Guardians - it is a perfect opportunity to earn the Stop Hitting Yourself achievement - just kill one Guardian, take his weapon and kill another one with it.

Right after the cutscene, when you are in a burning room, look left at a barrel merged with the wall. There is a bottle (secret) in front of it. Keep walking towards the exit. The last fight takes place behind the building. Keep your position, do not try to get around the enemy.
