| For a combatant who values discretion above all else, the ability to approach a target while undetected and kill with a silenced weapon is as terrifying as it is effective. | |
As Stealth is a Novice skill, it can be learned without having to spend skill points on other skills in the Physical skill tree. You just need to spend a skill point on Stealth to learn it.
The Stealth skill is automatically learned by the following backgrounds:
| Cyber Runner | Ronin |
| Rank | Challenge | Effects |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | - | Adds a Stealth Meter. You are 25% more difficult to detect when sneaking. Suppressed weapons do an additional 5% sneak attack damage. |
| 2 | Perform 10 sneak attacks. | Upgrades the Stealth Meter. You are 50% more difficult to detect when sneaking. Suppressed weapons do an additional 10% sneak attack damage. |
| 3 | Perform 20 sneak attacks. | You are 75% more difficult to detect when sneaking. Suppressed weapons do an additional 15% sneak attack damage. |
| 4 | Perform 40 sneak attacks. | You are 100% more difficult to detect when sneaking. Suppressed weapons do an additional 20% sneak attack damage. Doors you interact with while in stealth no longer alert enemies. |
The fastest method to complete the Stealth rank challenge is to do an exploit that involves repeatedly sneak attacking important NPCs that do not die.
To do this exploit, first find an NPC that does not get hostile, does not die, and is in a place where no one can witness you. Such NPCs can be sneak attacked countless times until they fall to their knees. After a while, they will stand, having regained their health. At this point, you can sneak attack them again until you complete the challenge.
It is important only to attack the NPC if you appear Hidden in the Stealth Bar. Attacking the NPC while you are Detected will not only not trigger a sneak attack but will also put a bounty on you. Also, do not attack the NPC while you are too close, as they will sometimes detect you for attacking them and will also put a bounty on you.
Here are some NPCs whom you can do the sneak attack exploit and their locations:
| NPC Name | Location |
|---|---|
| Anya Griffon | Centurion Arsenal, New Atlantis |
| Cornelius Townnard | Outland, New Atlantis |
| Dr. Alexei Lebedev | Reliant Medical, New Atlantis |
