SO...we've determined that Garrett has the highest midichlorian count in a millennium. Midichlorians are in every living cell, and what the Final Glyph really did was recode the mitochondrial DNA/RNA of every creature in The City to no longer be receptive to Glyph magic. A severed genetic connection. Garrett has the last repository of midichlorians in the scar on the back of his left hand, which even now, are spreading throughout his body, resetting it.

I'm confused. Have you mistaken my position for being *for* glyph magic? If I have given that impression, then you have my apologies. I'm trying to illustrate that his level of skill is not all that far-fetched really, and can be emulated and understood quite well by any one of us with a little practice.
Naturally, pulling off stealth as consistently well as Garrett himself is a bit of a stretch no matter how good you are. But you would be amazed at how effective even a little bit of stealth training can be. I don't like to brag on myself, so I'll brag on my friends and some of those I've trained with:
My friends have been stepped on and walked by with out being seen in open fields with short grass (at night). They've remained unseen even with a light pointed directly at them. They've managed to disappear so completely immediately *after* being seen, they were able to watch the people there begin to question the validity of the initial "spotters" vision. They've moved across paintball fields unseen, and taken out enemy players with out having to fire a shot.
If we mere humans can accomplish such things with out glyph magic by simply sharing what little professional training we have each received, then surely Garrett can manage to pull off some amazing heists with completely mundane skills using his training from one of the most highly trained organizations in the City.
So to sum it up, my vote went for pure skill.

That had nothing to do with you. If I was addressing your post, I would've said "you", not "we".

Ahh. Then the confusion was on my part. Do continue. :p

"If I'll never seen another glyph again, it will be too soon!"

Yep yep yep!

So these were the last Garrett's words about glyphs, then I guess he was not very into them, he just exploited some "courtesy" done by the Keepers. There's also to say that the glyphs now are EXTINCT! The Final Glyph deleted them all, along with itself.

Garrett used their tools against them, as he used all the Factions' corrupt leaders' tools against them.:cheeky:

Interesting comparison!
