These purchases help in two ways, first they make you quieter when you move, making sneaking around a more viable option. This is perfect if you want to master the Ghost tactical style, but they are also incredibly useful for Perfectionist difficulty. These make stealth a far more viable option, as you can now take more enemies out using non-lethal methods from a distance. Believe me, you want to be able to see these as they give you lots of money, for example: $30,000 per HVT. These make missions much easier, not only because you will be able to see where enemies are facing on your radar, but also because they make any bonus objectives nearly unmissable. Tip #2: Buy Essential UpgradesĪs soon as possible, there are a few things that you will want to buy that will make life so much easier for you. I go into greater detail about which gear below. I’d go as far as saying that there’s minimal difference between Normal and Perfectionist difficulties once you have the right stealth gear.

Why, you might ask? Well, given my experience with the game, Perfectionist Difficulty becomes much easier after you upgrade the Paladin, your suit, and your gadgets. Unless you’re a real stickler for difficulty, or maybe a big Splinter Cell fan, I’d suggest leaving Perfectionist difficulty alone, at least until you’ve already completed approximately half of the campaign. Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist recently captured my attention, curiosity and eventually free time, so I decided once again to write a ‘5 Tips for’ article on it (something which I will likely turn into a regular occurrence, with one planned for tomorrow’s Black Ops 2: Apocalypse DLC.) If you haven’t yet fallen in love with Splinter Cell Blacklist, here’s Attack of the Fanboy’s review of it.
