Going Overboard Walkthrough

Objectives:
1	Go to the Boathouse After deciding to steal the Hummingbird Codex to make a statement, get in the car and drive to the nearby Idols' boathouse with Kevin to get the Codex.
2	Fight Your Way to the Vault Kill the Idols guarding the boathouse entrance before going inside. Afterward, fight your way through multiple Idol members to reach the vault holding the Codex.
3	Get the Codex After entering the vault, the Collective will lock you inside. They reveal that they predicted your arrival and that the Codex before you is a fake. Disarm the trapped display case and prepare to break out of the vault.
4	Fight Your Way to the Exit Leave the vault after the Idols open the doors and gun each of them down as you make your way back through the boathouse. While you do this, Kevin points out that the real Codex is likely on the Collective's yacht.
5	Ride a Jetski to the Yacht Exit the boathouse and head to the docks nearby. Steal one of the Idols' jetskis and ride with Kevin toward the Collective's yacht.
6	Get the Real Codex Jump onto the yacht using the jetski and make your way through the boat to get to the real Codex. This section involves going through several Idol-filled hallways, so prepare yourself for multiple firefights.
7	Disarm and Rearm the Bomb After reaching the Codex, disarm the bomb on the display case before picking it up. Afterward, head to the yacht's bridge and rearm the bomb there to give the Idols a taste of their own medicine.
8	Go to the Helipad Head to the helipad after rearming the bomb. Doing this will trigger a cutscene showing the Collective shooting down your helicopter, preventing your escape.
9	Kill Both Collective Members After the cutscene ends, the two Collective members and their crew of Idols will leap down the roof to fight you. Prioritize taking down the Idol members first before focusing all of your fire on both Collective members.
10	Escape the Yacht As you defeat the Collective, the bomb you rearmed will explode, causing the yacht to combust. Run through the burning hallways and enter the speedboat at the end of the ship. Defeat the Idols chasing you down as you make your way back to shore to complete the mission.

Tips and Strategies

Bring Pineapple Express

Lv	Skill	Description
2	Pineapple Express	Grab an enemy, drop a grenade down their pants, and throw them.

This mission features plenty of firefights against Tough enemies in tight spaces, making Pineapple Express a valuable skill to have. Use this skill often throughout the mission to blow up Tough enemies and their supporting lackeys at the same time.

Take Advantage of Hazards

Take advantage of the numerous explosive hazards scattered throughout each combat section in this mission. Whenever the Idols group up near explosive crates and barrels, detonate them to cause an explosion that will take them all out.

Continuously Shoot During the Boat Chase

During the final section where you escape to shore, we recommend continuously shooting at the Idols' jetskis instead of trying to aim with precision. The spread of the SMG is too wide for accurate shots, so shooting in their general direction ends up being more effective.

Aim Towards the Drivers

While you continuously shoot towards the Idols' jetskis, prioritize aiming towards the drivers as taking them out is enough to neutralize the threat they pose.
