Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Walkthrough – Mission 10: Angel With Broken Wings

"Angels with Broken Wings" can be divided into two parts. The first section, which is optional, involves liberating some prisoners from a ruined base. The second part tasks you with extracting a captured prisoner named Malak from a prison fort. If you're quick, you can intercept Malak at the first position, as he quickly moves into a jeep and speeds off to the second facility. This guide assumes you allow Malak to escape initially and catch up with him later, taking the time to raid and loot the first facility.

The first section follows the standard sneak-interrogate-Fulton approach, but you should be particularly cautious while exploring this area. Although there is loot to be found, the multi-floored ruin features numerous floors, holes in ceilings, and cutaway walls, increasing the likelihood of being spotted.

Approach from the rear and ascend to the top, then systematically work your way down each level, clearing the floors as you go. Utilize the gaps to your advantage and exercise extreme caution, relying on silenced weapons and hand-to-hand combat whenever possible.

Once you've collected the loot, make your way to the fortress. Be cautious of foot patrols along the road.

There are two ways to gain entry into the fortress. One option is a vent on the east side, which provides access to several points in the courtyard, with exits near key doors. However, we recommend taking the upper route that winds around the fort's west and north sides. Malak is being held in the southern section of the outpost.

Taking a cautious approach from the hill that overlooks the guard towers allows you to neutralize the upper-reach guards first, followed by the soldiers along the parapet, then the troops in the courtyard, and finally those inside the building.

In addition to your main target, there are two other prisoners inside who can also be Fulton extracted.

Your main prisoner cannot be Fulton extracted. Instead, you’ll need to strap him to your horse and ride around the enemy, making your way to the landing zone (LZ).
