Ellis White is one of James Bond's targets in Vietnam, and you'll need to track him down and plant the Q-Trak with little assistance (thankfully, we're all the assistance you'll need anyway). This 007 First Light mission can be a tad tricky, especially since there are 3 challenges associated with Ellis that you won't want to miss.
You can check out the guide below that will show you where Ellis is, how you can complete all 3 of his challenges (Party Crasher, Blanc the Brut, and Key Master), and how you can give him the Q-Trak without him knowing about it, just like a true spy!
007 First Light: Time to Die – All Challenges Guide
A resort is anything but relaxing for James Bond in the "Time to Die" mission, especially when you're responsible for completing 23 challenges!
We have a full guide below, but we've also got a video walkthrough if you want to see how we managed to find Ellis and complete all his associated challenges:
How to Find Ellis in 007 First Light (Party Crasher Challenge Guide)
Once you arrive at the resort, you'll want to head down the stairs and continue heading southeast, so follow the pathway down the stairs and rock steps until you find the Ocean View Bar, which is blocked off by two guards.
Once you speak to the guards, two women will approach and sit down behind you. These women have the party flyer that you need to take, so use the Phone Dart or Laser Strap to stun them, then pickpocket the flyer and return to the guards to enter the party.
This will get you the Party Crasher Challenge, but there are still two more challenges (and a sub-mission to serve Ellis a drink, which you can find below)
How to Get the Ocean View Bar Key in 007 First Light (Blanc the Brut & Key Master Challenge Guide)
After you approach Ellis, you will be tasked with following Jonty and finding the bar keys. To do this, approach the wine menu on the edge of the bar and read it.
You can now speak with the bartender on the left side of the bar, press "order off the menu," then select either dialogue option, which will cause the bartender to leave and give you the Blanc the Brut challenge.
With the bartender gone, enter behind the bar and head through the doors. You'll now be in the storage room, but two guards block your way forward.
Head to the red toolbox, and you can find a hose that you can turn on to distract them. With the guards distracted, head towards the keys and vault over the ledge so you can exit via the back door and safely return to Jonty.
Getting the keys without being detected will reward you with the Key Master Challenge, and now it's time to serve Ellis a drink and complete the first part of the "Plant Q-Traks" objective.
How to Serve Ellis a Drink in 007 First Light
Return with Jonty to Ellis, and you will be able to unlock the minibar and make Ellis a drink. There are four options, and I don't think it matters which you pick, but I chose Taquila Slammer since Ellis asked for something that "kicks harder than a mule".
Once Ellis downs the drink you made him, you can freely leave the area, and you will have tagged one of your three targets. We have covered the other two targets in separate guides that you can find here, including their exclusive challenges:
