Back to Basics Challenge: Big Rifle case

New Challenge as of 5/1/26

You can chose any map. I picked Hawkes Bay

Silent Assassin Suit Only is required and must take out Reynard with any Sniper. So Equip any you want.

play the main mission,

Get the kalimar pistol from the safe room in house.

When they both get to bathroom and steam fills up orson shower, use Kalimar on both then use sniper on Reynard. Hide both bodies.

Leave. Remember SASO

then you unlock the rifle case, it’s huge wider bigger and best part, any sniper goes in and out without having to break the rifle in pieces.

You don’t even need the Kalmer. Just wait a few more minutes and shoot Reynard in her sleep. You don’t really even need to hide the body either since Orson won’t wake up and no one ever goes in there after they go to bed.

True

but the kalimar is free hanging on the wall, why wait longer for them to go to bed. Quick 2 shots and they knocked out. Now hiding bodies is optional, I’m just use to doing it.

I never mind waiting an extra few minutes in this game. Feels more like what the character would actually do rather than sedating someone unnecessarily, and yes, I know the irony of that coming from me.

Shakti de! :palm_up_hand: :heart:

I wonder, can the case be thrown and does it look ridiculous when spinning towards someone? :laughing:

I haven’t tried it yet, but not having to wait for assembly or de assembly is great on all snipers

Mounting and dismounting a sniper rifle is a ritual I really like, so am I not very interested in the case. Furthermore, it makes the game easier so it is not fun. It should at least generate some suspicion.

There are a selection of sniper rifles that are quick to pack/unpack with any briefcase.

That difference made those sniper rifles objectively superior for gameplay.

Introducing this new case evens the field and any rifle is now a playable option. Giving players more choice is a good thing.

I did it in a classic style - Paris. Both targets eliminated with a sniper rifle from the tower while they were watching the fireworks. Earlier, I took out their guards so they would have stomach issues, and I used remote distraction tools to pull the targets slightly out of public view. Very satisfying gameplay.

And such a briefcase should have been in the series from the very beginning - and it should be the only one that allows sniper rifles to be packed due to their size.

Miami and Dubai were my other possibilities but chose Hawkes Bay
