Base game / Quick techniqueMark the underground route separately

Surface maps do not describe entrances and elevations of underground cities. Remember the lift, cave or well that actually connects areas.

Guard counters are strong learning tools, but attacking after the first hit of a long enemy sequence invites punishment.

Balance and Tarnished Pack additions depend on patch and ownership. Do not assume old launch-week skill damage or new pack gear is universal.
