Yes, if you download the complete first game on PS Plus, you can open the game to redeem the Legacy Pack DLC which will let you access that content in Hitman 2. It's a big download which is annoying but hey, still a good deal.

Use lethal poison, you can find some in plants, also one in the doctor's officeHow the hell do you do this? I've poisoned it with rat poison and the poisonous flowers but it just makes him sick.
Rat (emetic) poison only makes people vomit
Appreciated, thanks bud.
Does anyone know how to get the lady to go to the construction site for this challenges? She never leaves her house unless its to the statue.
That's a mission story, go over the bridge right next to the default mission start if you need hints
Hooray. I managed to do the elusive target. Failed the last one so happy to get this one completed. Hadn't spent much time on the map so was a bit of a crappy run. Took me like 45mins, got compromised twice but lucked out at the end.
Got SA on the current elusive today. Shame I missed the second one.
The chapel is the key location for this one, I feel.

SA'd the Elusive on my first go, took ~40 minutes. Was finally unspoiled (in retrospect, I saw the mention of the chapel on this page but thankfully didn't remember it till I was already there and had realized my approach), so it felt rad as hell.
It's weird that they picked this level so soon, but I honestly feel much more comfortable with it than some of the others so I can't really complain for myself.

Started as architect; headed downstairs pretty quickly. Saw her go into the room with the artifacts; thought she might have the book in there so I used the nearby bathroom to lure a guard in. Then realized she and her elite guard walk right by it, so I coined him in and became him, making him not a problem at all later and giving me an easy elite guard outfit. Realized it wasn't in that room, so I started exploring.
Now... I don't find the level very daunting as I said; I spent a lot of time doing (most of) the challenges that require tons of outright murder and had explored the level a lot besides. I knew how to survive if things went bad, and how much guards could travel, and so on. My issue was more... I spent so much time across very few runs, so I forgot where keys and cards were! So I, uh, made my way up to the penthouse and cleared that room to get the master key and a guard's card. Which I didn't end up needing much, but... well, it went ok.
Started exploring more - the custodian area, mainly. Knocked the enforcer there out fine. On my way out after finding nothing, saw her go into the chapel. Went in through the window, realized the book was there. Went into the MC room (...via the window again) and saw the security setup was there. Also realized nobody was in the next room and that there was a box up those stairs.
Coined the 2 guards out of the MC room, dumped them in the upstairs box. Dumped the custodian in an MC room box, took out cameras. Coined the 3 people in the chapel into the MC room - switching to custodian for the final one as he was an enforcer for the elite guard, to be safe - and dumped them in boxes. Switched back to elite guard.
Was prepared to wait a bit but she strolled in a minute or two later and it was already go time. Used my lethal poison syringe, grabbed the book, ran off to the custodian area again... was almost stopped by a locked door, then ran back around to its window. And casually exited via the shaft.

I thought for sure killing *anyone* kept you from being able to menu restart.
Guess it's just completing any objective (including stuff like grabbing the book in the current ET).
And dying, obviously.
You cannot die/quit/restart after an objective was completed.
Often the objective is just the actual kill, but in cases like this one where there's an additional one those count too. So even if she's still alive, as soon as you grabbed the notebook, you'd be locked into that run.
Other than that, you can do whatever and restart after. It doesn't require you to get SA or anything like that.
Finally got all the Classic challenges on all the standard campaign missions (so not counting Patient Zero and the bonus missions). Good lord, master SA/SO and even Sniper Assassin on Colorado are a pain.
That new sniping mechanic where every guard is instantly aware of your location ruins Sniper Assassin in Colorado. In theory that water tower is the perfect sniping spot (which is why it's there in the first place), but there's no way to hide if you're up there, so after the first kill, every single person in Colorado has his guns pointed at you.
The all black suit is slick as fuck though.
EDIT: To add to the discussion about the Elusive Target, I think this was one of the easier ones to SA.

It took me very little time to figure out she, like many other Hitman targets, also likes to have a smoke right next to a gas valve. So I just got me a wrench, opened the gas, fucked around trying to find where the hell her logbook was and a few minutes later 'Boom, accident kill'.

February's theme for featured contracts is "broken hearts" which is open to interpretation

Nice! Can't wait to unlock the white yukata, and that Shaman's powder looks interesting. I'm guessing it will work like the cocaine brick, but with an added AoE KO effect.
Wait I did the Elusive for the Fugitive in Season 1, does that mean I can't redo this one? Or is this a different elusive lol?
Will we be able to play the past Elusive Targets again in the future? I missed the third one because my TV is (hopefully) being repaired and I might miss the fourth one as well depending on how long it'll take to get back.
They reran them once in the first game, but we have no guarantee they will do so again.
It's not like they carried over any account details, so I'm assuming everyone will be able to do these reruns regardless of what they did in season 1.
Maybe I'll just look up a solution for this one; it's one I successfully did by myself the first time around. In comparison, I'll probably go at the ones I did look up (to make sure I got the SA suits)/didn't do/failed in the normal way, to see how well I can do this time. Just don't know if I can be bothered to redo ones I already pulled off.
But then again I never did any of the ones I did myself particularly well, so... probably worth another try regardless, hmm.
I wonder if we will get that tactical swimsuit for the Hawke's Bay elusive. It wasn't in the initial reward roadmap.
It would be cool to get a full body wetsuit, like without the charcoal tactical pants and boots.
So, the Complete First Season is going free tomorrow with PlayStation Plus, but I really wonder if the GOTY Edition Upgrade for Season 1 will have a discount too.
You just want to see how 47 really smuggles his pistolIt would be cool to get a full body wetsuit, like without the charcoal tactical pants and boots.
It would feel like he's wearing nothing at all.
Nothing at all.
NOTHING AT ALL!
Stupid sexy Hitman!
The Fugitive is the same Elusive Target from the first game, he is the one whp's having a face change operation.
This is a good question. Those of us who did the Elusive Target already, do we either get the rewards immediately, or do we have to do it again?
For some weird reason I thought elusive progress carried over, but I just checked and there's nothing but the new targets recorded. So I think it should work like the rest of the legacy content: you have a clean slate and get to fight those classic elusives again.
The reason I screwed up the current(?) elusive target is that I try to do it as fast as possible. And the fastest method I discovered required picking up the book first. Which means once I do that, I'm committed, because picking up the book is completing an objective. I did a lot of dry runs where I'd briefly pause at the book, but not pick it up, then execute my assassination attempt but miss on purpose, or execute the ET's guard instead to see if I could get away with it. The assassination method I decided on carried risk of being spotted, but usually I was able to do it (approximately) without being spotted in my dry runs. I got unlucky or was sloppy on my execution on my real attempt.
I think I could have immediately paused, unplugged my ethernet cable and restarted my computer to try again. But I just decided not to. You only need 5 SA ETs to get all the suits so I let my screw-up stand.

When people say something to the effect of, "yawn, this elusive was so easy," I kind of laugh to myself and think, "yes, but you're doing it the boring way, mate."
The bolded is completely unnecessary. All you need to do is pause and alt-f4. On consoles, you can pause and close the game via the dashboard.
If you've already completed an objective, you can't restart via the menu. This is a workaround for that.
Alright good to know, thank you. The whole thing about the ethernet cable was something I thought I'd seen said somewhere. I haven't actually illegitimately reset a botched ET yet.
It's about time. Figured the first one would be out by this month.
