For anyone who hasnât done it yet, a bit of advice to help minimize the chance of failure: go to the cafe first and lure the woman into the bathroom, knock her out and put her body in the trunk, but donât pick up the tablet! Leave it where it is, and go after Giggles. This way, you donât risk committing yourself to finishing without a chance to restart because of a finished objective. Nothing will happen to the tablet there and you wonât have to deal with the woman anymore. Do whatever you want to do with Giggles, and then once heâs done youâll be committed to finishing, but all you have to do is head back to that bathroom and pick up the tablet, all the hard stuff is done. Hell, use the tranquilizer gum or banana peel if you want it all to appear accidental; even if someone finds her body the tablet will still be there and you wonât lose SA if thatâs what youâre going for. Itâs the best way to ensure that youâre not committed to completion until youâve actually killed Giggles, but without risking messing up with the woman afterward.
Itâs so funny that NPCs donât collect their important items after they slip and fall . I love hitman logic.
I think the idea is that itâs like they dropped their keys and nobody is just paying any attention.
With the (person) carrying the list - they couldâve had maybe 3 potential suspects(?), maybe not just in the Sisha Cafe, but wondering around the level. Maybe one is in the Cafe, or perhaps browses the lamps and maybe goes by the well⊠Or one near the market area and tries some of the snails at some point.
Or just keep it to the Cafe so that youâd have to observe who does or says whatever.
Just an idea⊠Itâs either brilliant or terrible.
Keep in mind these were designed with the play one time only approach. I love you idea but if it wasnât now replayable it wouldnât much matter.
I think every strategy I used previously for the Entertainer was some variation of emetic-ing him to the bathroom by the café, so I wanted to get him somewhere else. I initially planned to use the banana to get the list, but this whole run was an RNG nightmare, so I settled for the Goldbrick to move quicker and lessen the risk of running into Giggles on the way out of the café.
(That is some horrendous clipping on the well during the kill. )
You never just straight up lethal poisoned his drink right there on the rooftop?
Whereâs the fun in that?
I would love if the ET arcade had a batch that outright removed the tablet objective. Its one of the weakest ET objectives lol
Battle Axe, silent assassin suit only.
During the target lockdown, his guards didnât escorted him during this run, oddly. I guess they werenât paid enough.
Time for The Entertainer once again! I think it was a missed opportunity they donât play this song anywhere in the mission:
Itâs the story of a clown who fell asleep on an explosive device
I think this might be the first elusive target I had to hit Alt-F4 for. My controller stopped responding in the middle of the mission after I had already killed the target. I have no idea how to play this game with a keyboard so I had to force quit the game and figure out the controller issue.
On restarting everything went fine though. Heâs dead and the list is retrieved.
Okay so yeah, I havenât started playing this one again, but if memory serves me, thereâs no way to get the list off the lady at the lounge without knocking her out somehow, yes?
I will have to make a slight allowance therefore to my No Loadout SA SONKO rule.
I certainly cannot bring in any items, so no banana peel for me. Will have to find a way to get her alone and knock her out. I think I remember she goes to the bathroom sink at one point?
Either way, the No Loadout SA SONKO streak ends with this ET, but not because of any fault or shortcoming of my own, but because of the gameâs requirements themselves.
So sorry about this, but that got me thinking:
âThis is the story of a clown,
Who puked out poison and then he drowned.
And slowly his lungs stop breathing
And his heart quits beating,
I absolutely love it⊠when he dies!â
erm⊠I got the list, went to the rooftop, he was not there. Iâve looked around for a bit, could not find him, Alt+F4. This time I went straight to the rooftop - no Mr Giggles.
Is this a known bug? Am I missing something? I killed this guy several times before, never had any problemsâŠ
He stands around in the upper section of the rooftop for a bit before coming down to the lower part to talk to the guy that drinks the poisoned drink.
