Sniper Elite: Resistance - All Alternate Starting Locations

In Sniper Elite: Resistance, you have to traverse and explore levels while eliminating multiple hostiles along the way. But what if we told you that you can find more spawn points for future runs? Here's our guide on where to find all alternate starting locations in Sniper Elite: Resistance.

All alternate starting locations in Sniper Elite: Resistance

The vast majority of missions in Sniper Elite: Resistance have two alternate starting locations and you're bound to stumble upon these while exploring. If you're close enough to these spots, an intel notification will tell you that these are good infiltration points. Some appear as bonfires that you have to interact with to gain access, while others are doors or gates that need to be lockpicked.

All in all, these Sniper Elite: Resistance starting locations should help you in future runs, giving you a means of approaching objectives in a different manner.

Mission 2: Dead Drop - Starting locations map

The map above shows the two alternate starting locations in the Dead Drop mission.

Dead Drop location: Scaffold Yard

Follow the road that leads southwest until you see a scaffolding next to the fortress walls. Open the gate here so you can begin your future runs from this section.

Dead Drop location: Citadel Apartments

Go to the street between the Citadel and the Grand Library. There, you'll find a large house with blue windows. Unlock the door to gain access to this location for your future runs.

Mission 3: Sonderzuge Sabotage - Starting locations map

The Sniper Elite: Resistance starting locations in the Sonderzuge Sabotage mission are directly across from each other on the map.

Sonderzuge Sabotage location: Signal Box

Continue along the railway at the right-hand side of this zone (from the default starting point). Eventually, you'll see a metal gate below the railway bridge. It's illuminated by a searchlight and it's also fairly close to a Kill List challenge.

Sonderzuge Sabotage location: Parkview Apartments

There are apartment blocks at the northwestern part of the map. Head inside one of the apartments near the back alley with the cafe and shops. Also, watch out for the Gestapo troops patrolling nearby.

Mission 4: Collision Course - Starting locations map

The fourth mission, Collision Course, takes place in a familiar zone--i.e. it's actually the same dam from the first mission, but the explorable region is larger this time around.

Collision Course location: Dam Lookout

Follow the dirt road along the left-hand side of the map until you reach the train station with a sabotage objective. There's a sloping path that leads to a tent. Interact with the campfire to light it, which then automatically unlocks this starting location.

Collision Course location: Power Station

Make your way past the dam to reach the power plant. You'll find an unlockable metal gate just outside the facility.

Mission 5: Devil's Cauldron - Starting locations map

There are two more alternate starting locations in Sniper Elite: Resistance.

Devil's Cauldron location: Quarry Lake

Follow the highway leading to the south and go past the tunnel (which happens to have a weapons workbench). Upon arriving at the quarry, you'll see a construction tower with a zipline. Right next to it is a ledge that you can climb by using the overgrown vines. Light the campsite here to tag this location.

Devil's Cauldron location: Coastal Landing

There's a pier just between the cabin with the Kill List challenge and the U-boat pen with an optional objective. Unlock the metal gate to gain access to this section.

Mission 6: Assault on Fort Rouge - Starting locations map

You might want to unlock these alternate starting locations for the Assault on Forge Rouge mission given the objectives.

Assault on Fort Rouge location: Breached Wall

One of the main objectives in this mission has you disabling the AA turrets. One of these turrets, in particular, is right next to a store that's in ruins. Check behind the rubble to find a campsite that you can interact with.

Assault on Fort Rogue location: Checkpoint Cabin

From the abbey to the west, follow the main highway that leads to the north. Eventually, you'll come across a lone cabin just before a gargantuan fortress.

Mission 7: Lock, Stock, and Barrels - Starting locations map

The map above shows you where to find the two alternate locations in Lock, Stock, and Barrels, which takes place on a map similar to one of the missions in Sniper Elite 5.

Lock, Stock, and Barrels location: Windmill

From your original starting location, continue along the main road heading to the left. You should spot a windmill in the distance, which happens to be a sniper's nest, too. Light the campfire here to gain access to this infiltration point.

Lock, Stock, and Barrels location: Western Farmhouse

Travel along the main highway as it slopes along to the upper-right portion of the map. Just past the wooden tower with the sniper, there's a farmhouse with a gate that you can unlock.

Mission 8: End of the Line - Starting locations map

The map above has two more alternate starting locations in Sniper Elite: Resistance. These are for the End of the Line mission.

End of the Line location: Bombed Factory

From the default starting point, hug the left-hand side of the open area until you come across a building with the "Reparanons" sign. Interact with the campsite to tag this location.

End of the Line location: Eastern Railyard

Last but not least, you should find yet another campfire if you head along the northern part of the map. This fixture is right in front of a guard tower near the edge of the zone.
