OK I am a sniper now

[shoppa]

Well, since the blackjack is useless unless sneaking up and the dagger is not so good in melee, I have resorted to using the bow and snipering when I have no other choice. Seems like the headshots may actually do more damage? Or is that just my imagination?

I kinda miss the sword, I actually got pretty good with it in T2 and could take on 3-4 guards at one time and win!

Guess I will be stocking up on arrows!

This game rocks!

yea i like the bow, one good shot in the head and the guard is dead at once :D if u miss the head then it will take 3 arrows to kill him.

Dunno what you're talking about with the blackjack being useless (though the dagger most certainly is). So far, I've gotten through the game up to the point of the Pagan severed hand mission given by the Keepers, and I haven't KILLED a single enemy. I have, however, gotten through every point up to this by knocking out every enemy I've come across with the blackjack. It's just as easy as the old games...

Is there REALLY a difference between killing and blackjacking? Roleplaying aside?

[MrWynd]

only that when killed someone emits a scream and leaves a blood pool

At 100 bucks a shot I'm sticking with the black jack and the dagger! A lot of people say I'm frugal but really I'm just cheap!

No, apart from the fact that you need to get up close.
That's one reason why people ghost missions. After a while, blackjacking is just too easy.

People scream as they die, they leave blood behind as evidence, and you can't kill noncombatants (What the hell, used to be you couldn't kill anyone, on expert anyway). Blackjack solves all that, but in my opinion still far too easy. Ghosting (of the true, supreme kind) is the only way to go.

I killed everyone. I was more of a serial killer then a thief.
