For a non-lethal run, do I need to keep bodies off the ground?

In Dishonored 1, if you left an unconscious body on the ground it was likely that rats would eat it, leading to an unintended kill. So every time I did a non-lethal takedown, I had to look around for a shelf, roof, or dumpster where I could safely tuck my sleeping victim.

Is that necessary in Dishonored 2? I haven't seen rats swarm on a corpse yet, and since there's not a rat plague hopefully they won't. But I'd hate to mess up a non-lethal run by accident.



Best Answer

Unconscious bodies are naturally still susceptible to damage — for example, in mission 3, two guards on a staircase are dangerously close to lanterns, and may burn to death if you knock their bodies.

As for rats, I'm not entirely sure, but bloodflies will definitely eat bodies. As a game tip itself says, "bloodflies will eat bodies before attacking you. Use this to your advantage."

Do you have to hide bodies dishonored?

What happened? You have to be careful with your unconscious bodies, same as the main game. If you are going for "didn't kill anyone" then you have to make sure that people aren't left in a situation where they might end up in the water (drowning them) or falling down stairs or off ledges.

How do you use non-lethal takedown in Dishonored?

Do bloodfly kills count towards the no kill achievement and/or chaos? They don't ; they're like the rats from the first game. High chaos = more of them.
