Ok thanks Melissa. I've blackjacked everyone except for [SPOILER] one guard and the no-ko mechanist. [/SPOILER] There are a lot of doors that I can't get opened. :(
I think the house was designed well, but after I find the [SPOILER] gambling room [/SPOILER] I'm going to call it quits for a while.
:)

Well, I'll be!
So, y'all remember way back at the beginning?
[SPOILER]I don't know if anyone else has figured it out, but I just discovered that you can climb the bloody tree outside the upper windows. I ignored that initial comment by Garrett because I was too busy frantically trying to find a shadow to hide within. So I've managed to clear that hall and the side rooms, WAY after I should have, and with a waste of two invisibility potions. Oh, and of course, with loot as a taboo at this point.[/SPOILER]
Just because I'm that kind of gal and it makes me feel better, I'm keeping a written tally of the loot I've found since I came too close to the objective. If anyone's interested, I'll post it here when I'm finally done.
Cheers!

[SPOILER] For the sparring room I got the bots to follow me , shot a rope arrow into the armory shelves and hid on the top shelf behind the door while the bots and guards took care of each other next door .[/SPOILER]Hope that helps a bit . Has anyone finished thesecond mission yet ?

Melissa:
You're zipping through this fast, girl!!! :thumb:
For the sparring room [SPOILER]I opened the doors and got as far in as possible in shadow then stood up and ran like blazes around the door, grabbed the key, then ran down the nearby stairs and under the stairwell until the guards gave up and went back upstairs.[/SPOILER]
The other guard you haven't gotten, is one I just plain gave up on.
And I did not have a problem of exceeding the loot limit. Mission didn't end until I passed the bodies past the back gate.

Ok I have all of the objectives completed except for one. There are still many doors that won't open, and one in particular is on a [SPOILER] T shaped hallway on the second floor. I was able to reach the door by going to the room with the fountain, shoot an arrow into the window on the second floor, and then rope arrow up and into the hallway. There doesn't seem to be anything here except for the one locked door. [/SPOILER] Am I supposed to be in that part of the FM?

probably not. how did you break the window using a arrow? didn't work for me, had to use the blade shooter.

I just shot a regular arrow at it. Of course everyone not KO came running. :p

ok for easy start on all difficulties, once mission starts up run to the tree on the right and then climb it like a ladder to the second floor window, jump to the ledge and open the window.

Playing on normal but still can't figure out how to get into the catacombs. You talk about a ghost library, is there any other library in the mansion ?Where exactly is the frobbable book? I've searched all the shelves.

There are two entirely seperate libraries in this mansion. ;) When you find the haunted library, you will know. First you need to get to the haunted library, then find your way to the catacombs. There's a scroll somewhere telling you about ghostly voices, this is a clue how to get to the haunted library.
