Dishonored 2 Stealth Guide
Master stealth mechanics for ghost and clean hands achievements.
Stealth Fundamentals
- 1Lean around corners to observe patrol routes before committing to movement.
- 2Crouch-walking is silent on all surfaces. Standing movement alerts nearby guards.
- 3Bodies must be hidden -- unconscious NPCs found by guards count as detections.
- 4Quick-save before risky sections and reload if detected for a clean run.
Non-Lethal Options
- 1Choke-holds from behind are silent and non-lethal. The safest takedown method.
- 2Sleep darts knock targets unconscious but take a moment to take effect.
- 3Stun mines can incapacitate multiple guards in a single area of effect.
- 4Every assassination target has a non-lethal alternative for Clean Hands runs.
Advanced Movement
- 1Blink/Far Reach to rooftops and chandeliers for undetected vertical traversal.
- 2Possession allows walking past guards inside a rat or fish undetected.
- 3Shadow Walk makes Emily nearly invisible and can pass through small gaps.
- 4Chain multiple movement abilities to cross large open areas without detection.
