In the Netherworld, you must cycle for the weapons, and water arrows. If you have your mouse scroll set up, this is the easiest way to find them again. The engine only allows the default weapons and such to be assigned one time to the hot keys.

I and my wife have been Thief fans since the very beginning with The Dark Project. We have been playing fan missions in the decade and a half since then. We have played almost all of the great fan missions by too many great authors to even attempt to name. Many of those fan missions were just as good as anything Looking Glass produced. The dedication of these true fans of these marvelous games has always astonished me, and I/we have been deeply grateful for their efforts.

Imagine our amazement that now, so long after the original games came out, the game can still feel fresh and original.
I think this mission may well be the finest I/we have ever played. The depth of its conception, the difficulty (high, but finely balanced), the interest in accomplishing the objectives, the brilliance in using a classic setting from the past in a new way, the new behavior of the denizens of the world, everything...absolutely topnotch!

We are ten-and-a-half hours into the mission (we like to take our time), still missing three scrolls, but we are in no hurry to finish it. It's the most fun we've had in a Thief mission in several years.

Congratulations!

OK. After 12+ hours (Did I mention that we like to take our time? We are uber patient), we finished the mission. We played on Master. I doubt we did anything the efficient way. (I should explain that I run the controls and my wife watches and says, "Wait! You didn't look there!" :joke: It works for us.) We did things the tried and true ways that we have always used. They work, but there were some faster game play possibilities that did not occur to us until we read the spoilers above, which we didn't do until after we finished. We worked harder in this mission than in nearly any other we could remember. Hyper-vigilant AI with lanterns! That's absolutely diabolical. :ebil: Never used the frag bombs except experimentally, only to reload afterwards. One neat thing is that this is one of the few missions where I have found that noise arrows actually played a useful role, even critical in a couple of instances.

5 of 7 secrets. (Then checked the spoilers for the last two. "I TOLD you to look there!" My wife said.)
Left about 1300 loot.
Got all of the optional objectives except killing the Beast.

I loved the ending!

Looking forward to the sequel. :thumb:
