Quick notes

Inspect before entering. The snake camera reveals the area beyond a door, while the tri-rotor allows remote reconnaissance.
Nonlethal does not mean unnoticed. Sleeping gas and electric tools can remove threats without killing, but their use may still be observed.
Suppression has limits. A suppressed firearm reduces the report but does not hide an impact, a body or Sam standing in a bright doorway.
Perfectionist changes the toolkit. Perfectionist imposes stricter rules than lower difficulties, including disabling Mark and Execute.

Useful tip

Perfectionist imposes stricter rules than lower difficulties, including disabling Mark and Execute.
