    Unsilenced pistols can actually be very useful! If nobody sees you shoot, guards will rush to where the gunshot originated. As long as you planned an escape route and are gone by the time they get there, you just pulled all the guards away from their post for about a minute.
    Silenced pistol kills are a last resort since they feel kind of boring to me, so I mostly use them to take out cameras instead. So silenced vs unsilenced really just determines whether I'm slipping past cameras, or carving out a path of distracted guards.

    Honestly the sedative poison is amazingly useful and kind of hilarious when you use it in New York and Chongqing because in a few spots on those maps there are A/C units that can be poisoned and if you turn on the A/C in the associated room (security office in new york, and break room in the chongqing ica facility respectively) you can cause a chain reaction of people finding unconscious bodies and then becoming unconscious themselves until you have an entire floor emptied in just a few minutes while you do other tasks.

    A lot of these unlocks are basically just about having fun or making it more challenging if thats what you want. Doing everything super optimal is fun at first but it gets kind of boring after a while. Which is why I found freelancer so fun because not only were the amount of silenced weapons available at the start super limited making me actually use unsupressed guns, but also the side challenges to get extra money made me do things I would never do in regular play like getting unsupressed kills, guard kills which is usually discouraged and other hard challenges like SA no firearms which really removed a lot of my crutches for SA like the dart guns and shooting out cameras whoch made it so much fun again

For some reason the kiwi items still worked for the glitch even though almost every other breakable item no longer did.

    The kiwi is such a strange case. Why would a rubber toy break when thrown? It makes no sense, but the balancing doesn't make sense either. One single use distraction vs. 3 multi use distractions? What's the point?
    In my opinion, it would be fixed just by making it not break, and being able to step on it when it's on the floor to make noise. That way, it has an extra use that justifies taking it instead of 3 coins. Maybe even make it so that NPCS stepping on it make noise too, making them stop to investigate.

    The best use I've found for concussion weapons is setting off explosion accident kills. For example, the many scooters in Mumbai. However, it is much better to do this with one of the ducky weapons, as they don't raise suspicion and can be remotely triggered. So I agree with your ranking.
    For the Red Tie Kiwi, this has a very specific use. It will distract two guards at once to the same location. It's not commonly in my arsenal, but in certain contracts it is very useful. Though still not a great unlock.

      Or by making them count as accidents. I mean, who expects a freakin' grenade? Maybe give them a bigger blast radius or maybe make actually give you 5 or so. 3 would be fine too, but they are one time use. The shurikens I xan pick up again so I basicly am only limited by having to pick them up again every 3 throws. The grenades? Gone after one throw.
      I honestly dont mind the other breakable items, like come ln, they are there for shits and giggles, like snowballs, muffins, a fish and those things. I mean, who would seriously bring a snowglobe with them other than just for fun or for a game mechanic that attracts people through walls?
      Same goes for all those rubber duckies. Hitman ksn't a serious game, it can be if you want to, but it isn't hard to see the funny things this fame has to offer. From absurd lines that people start saying when you keep your choke hold going too long or the insanely dumb guards and targets. Like, on the Isle of Sgaíl there are the top 1 percent of people and those fucks still walk after every coin drop. The scared for his life and insanely rich Stuyvasant? Still bends over a railing ontopnof the highest building in the world for one measely coin with a skull and two silenced guns on it.
      I think there is a part of this community that takes these games way too seriously

I think it works as it breaks after one use rather then creating particles that are boostable.

    I think the reason sedative poison is in the game is that it carried over from earlier games. Unlike in modern Hitman, if you go back to, say, Blood Money, you couldn't knock someone out by choking them, throwing a blunt object, or hitting them with one. To knock someone out, you HAD to use sedative poison. That said, there are a few scenarios where it is the better option. See, in the bank mission, you can use sedative poison to knock out the guards in the security room through the ventilation system. A very niche use, and the game only has like 3 spots where this mechanic is used, but it exists is my point.

  • @blainebishop5913

    Silenced weapons are good for actually completing the mission "optimally" (I prefer SMGs myself), but unsilenced pistols like the Classicballer, Striker, or Bartoli are good if you don't care about Silent Assassin rating or have an escape route in mind. In Sapienza, you can take out the Twin and the Deceiver targets in the square or mansion by running to a crate. I took out Troutt with a Bartoli from the library and ran to a laundry room, and I took out the Twin in arcade mode with a Striker by the cafe stairs before hiding in the basement.
    To me, the most useless items are sawed-off shotguns or single-use melee items (either breakable or only good as weapons-I usually use the ICA Titanium Crowbar).

    I'll be honest here and say this is pretty controversial. Some of these I can understand, but some I can't. I saw some of the comments here, and they explain the other stuff. Sedatives and Concussion grenades are good in freelancer. Sure it's not the base game, but it's good. Even though this was uploaded before freelancer released I'm just saying it. The ancestral fountain pen is good when you make a contract. You can really annoy people when you make it specified. People just bypass the explosive device kill with breaching charges. Breakable objects are very useful in speedruns though. Just being able to boost up onto places you aren't supposed to be in is good for speedruns. I mean Tuplapekoni a very good speedrunner and just uses these boosts a lot. Other smgs are cool too. They're pretty nice I suppose, and they can be useful at times. That's pretty much all I have to say.

I am thinking of buying the full collection to play online, but I wanted to know if you thought it was worth it? I don't have any friends to play with. Do I get to do all the elusive targets do you know? I heard they are time-limited but they seem so cool and I want to do them all. If I don't get them, it seems Im only buying it to get the silent assassin display... Can you please offer any advice? Thank you! Love your videos, I've learned a lot about the game

    Nah, most of the single use melees have their uses. Things like the brick, soda can, and crystal ball have a certain silent attack animation that pushes an NPC forward. This can be used to get accident kills, which are normally harder to get. Example: Trying to push the painter down the elevator shaft on Mumbai. Kicking him down it will force you to stand up, potentially exposing yourself to any NPCs in the lobby, but if you use a soda can's silent attack to knock him down the shaft, 47 will remain crouched and thus reduce your risk of getting caught.

    I agree with sedative vial, but with syringe I don't believe you lose SA on body discovered. It also can cause a high level panic and allow you to run straight past enforcers. Tranq gun outclasses it, though; it's just not unlockable until hitman 3 missions if you're going for the whole trilogy in WoA.
    Kiwi can particle boost where muffins cannot anymore and has a place at top level speedruns. At least until muffins can particle boost again.
    Ancestral fountain pen is sortof a necessity in contracts if you're trying to make an explosion kill required without allowing players to use a breaching charge. The only alternative is not unlockable anymore.
    Molotov cocktails honestly ruined hitman speedrunning a bit for me, but my taste should never dictate what other people have fun with. Since its nerf I'd agree it's 100% the most pointless addition to the game.
    So really I guess my point is that ancestral fountain pen shouldn't be on this list, let alone that high, just because it actually does have a purpose and straight up adds an option to the game that wasn't there before. Everything else, yeah I pretty much agree with wholeheartedly.
