Quick Links
InSniper Elite: Resistance, your gun is your best friend. While it can protect you from the Nazis and put a stop to the Kleine Blume project, you in turn need to look after it by finding various upgrades scattered throughout each level.
By unlocking workbenches, you’ll receive attachments for your rifle, SMG, and pistol that can make them quieter, harder-hitting, reduce their recoil, or even improve their rate of fire. Get the best loadout by finding all three workbenches in each campaign mission.
This guide uses up, down, left, and right in place of north, south, west, and east. This is because the map screen isn’t rotated to be pointing north, as the minimap in the bottom corner is.
Behind Enemy Lines
As the very first mission,Behind Enemy Linesonly has the one workbench, and it’s found more or less right in thedirect path of the mission.
Pistol Workbench
After pressurising the dam,head into the barnand take down the wooden planks to your left
This is the only workbench in this mission.
The pistol workbench inDead Dropis one of thetrickiest to find in the entire game, simply because it’s so easy to miss the entrances to its tunnel. The other two are quite easy to get to, though, to make up for it.
Head to thenortheastern end of the city, and from the city walls you’ll be able to seea tunnel going underground. Head inside andunpick the gatefor the workbench.
SMG Workbench
Pick the lock of the gate inthe inner courtyardof the large castle. It can be accessed from both the large, main courtyard and thequieter gardenfor a stealtheir entrance.

As you come into theabandoned village, climb the vines into the top floor of the resistance building andclimb through the open window.
In the train station,pick the lock for the gateand climb down the ladder. It is in on theright wallof the large room.
Devil’s Cauldron
Devil’s Cauldron is one of the trickiest maps to navigate, with its multiple levels and large cliff faces breaking up the area. Getting all three workbenches is equally arduous, as one isnear the main objective of the mission.
Inside the Kleine Blume production facility, behinda locked door. Either find theFactory Armoury Keyon a nearby officer or blow it with a satchel charge to get in.
There isan air ventin the next room that also leads into the workbench room, if you are able to crawl through it.
From the starting location, continue up the road andtake the first rightto find a path leading to a tunnel. The workbench is through a doordirectly ahead of you.
Pick the locked door inthe churchand go down the stairs. If you haven’t already, don’t forget to pick up thepropaganda posteron the outside wall of the church.

In thegrounds of the churchbythe town hall, there is alarge, brick shed. Pick the door and the workbench is inside.
There is an optional objective in the church, so complete that while you’re here.
In the central-right part of the city, between the bombed-out buildings, arestairs that lead down underground. Either blast the door with asatchel chargeor pry the planks loose (depending on which entrance you found) to find the workbench.
In the fort, head into theunderground Kleine Blume storage facility. In acorridor off the sideof the main warehouse, the door to the room with the workbench in needs blowing open with a satchel charge, or unlocking with the key foundon the nearby officer.
Lock, Stock, And Barrels
All three workbenches inLock, Stock, And Barrelscan be found without setting foot in the mansion, if youstart from the Western Farmhouseand work your way clockwise around the map.
Just next to theV1 rocket launching facilityis a bunker building with a green ladder on the wall. Climb it andhead through the doorto find the workbench.
Climb the ladder in the brick barn on thefar right of the map, by theWestern Farmhouse starting position.
In thebottom right of the map, climb the vines onthe building with the watermilland climb through the window. The same wall also hasaPropaganda mission poster.
End Of The Line
The final mission is one of the game’s biggest. Fortunately, End of the Line’s workbenches are largely ina straight line, so you can hit up each one as you progress through the mission.
The ‘true’ final mission,All Or Nothing, doesn’t have any workbenches.
In the morerural bottom halfof the map, in the centre, findan abandoned resistance building. Climb the vines andshimmy alongto reach the top floor, thenclimb down the ladderinto the barn to reach the workbench.
