	Stealth kills are very useful on many maps. If you don't want to draw out a fight which may attract the attention of other enemies, stealth is one of the best options. They are quick, usually silent, and always deadly. You must sneak up behind an enemy before you can perform a stalth kill. This is carried out by rolling or creeping up behind an enemy without them noticing, and attacking. They work unarmed and armed, with the exception of staves. All stealth kills are worth 100 points.

Successful performance usually rewards 5 points the first couple times, diminishing every time you do it again. On higher difficulties, or simply when an enemy is aware of you, they can throw you off themselves as a reversal, which in turn can be counter-reversed. The tackle does very little damage, if any, but the bonuses are that you knock them prone and you can disarm them in the midst of the move if they are carrying a weapon.]]

 Every level has one or more Optimal Routes, depending on what you wish to accomplish. The route for a high score will almost certainly be different than the route for lowest time, and finding the perfect path requires much time and dedication. Times listed are for the time shown on the High Score/Best Time screen, not on the Level Cleared screen, which are about six seconds longer.
