STEALTH TIPS ...

Avoid toe-to-toe combat. Guards are tough.

Use stealth to defeat them.

Hide in the shadows and avoid bright areas.

Use the Light Gem to see how visible you

are. If it appears dark, you’re practically
invisible to nearby opponents. If it’s bright,
you’re partially or fully visible.

Be silent! Your footsteps are quieter when

you move slowly and avoid loud surfaces like
metal. Avoid stumbling over boxes or barrels.

Observe your opponent’s patterns before

you move. To avoid being caught, move when
your enemy’s back is turned.

To assess stealthiness, listen closely to your

opponent. A suspicious person voices concern
and starts searching for you. Move carefully
away and find a good hiding spot. If you are
well-hidden, your opponent will give up the
search soon enough.

Opponents oblivious to your presence can

be knocked out with a single hit. Sneak up
behind the enemy, then attack with the
blackjack, dagger or broadhead arrow.
