Stealth Gameplay Tips
Equip Items That Boost Assassin Damage
Assassin Damage is the amount of damage you do when performing Assassination Kills. Boosting this will allow you to automatically kill targets with more health!
Use Ikaros To Survey The Area
Make sure to use Ikaros to survey the surrounding area, and mark out enemies, objectives, and other potential points of interest. This allows you to plan ahead, and avoid getting spotted out of nowhere by an enemy you didn't see.

Staying away from the enemy's line of sight is the best way to avoid drawing unnecessary attention to you. Here are some things to remember to avoid being spotted by enemies.
Hide In Bushes, Roofs, Etc.
Things that break the line of sight such as bushes, and roofs are good for keeping yourself hidden.
Avoid Lots Of Light
It is easier for you to hide in the dark rather than in direct sunlight. You can choose to meditate to turn the day into night time. Try to hide in dark places to lower your chances of being seen!
Move While Crouched
Moving while crouched makes you harder to notice since you are a smaller target. It also makes less noise so less enemies can hear you.
Lure Enemies To You
By using your Whistle Ability, you can get enemies to move closer to your position. This will allow you to assassinate them without moving from your spot!
Only Lure One At A Time
Be wary of the Whistle Ability as it may attract more than one enemy when used. Make sure that there is no one else around when attempting to lure an enemy to your position.
You Can Choose Not To Kill Enemies
Choosing to knockout enemies is a non-lethal way of stealthy gameplay since you can still loot the unconscious body. However, if an enemy finds their comrade asleep, they can revive them, and they will be on the alert.
