I'm making this thread because I see a lot of people confused about how to approach stealth in this game and how to do it right.

Suppressors are good, but not mandatory, the only thing that matters when it comes to raising the alarm for archeans is sight.

See a room full of ennemies ? Blast it with a fuze.

Too much ennemies for your silenced pistol ? Just shotgun / LMG them to death.

When you go loud in a room, you just have to watch out for the archeans that will come check out the noise, and just them. Once they are dead, you're clear.

While I do not advocate rushing to your death like an Ash main on steroid, grouping up with your teammates with 3 unsepressed weapons in a room works wonders, covering entrance and shooting the roaming ennemies on sight.

Now the tough part : tormentors and apexes. You usually can't blast tormentors away before they sound the alarm at long ranges (unless you aim really damn good), so you should always be wary of the angle they have and let them come closer. And when it comes to apexes... Honestly the only solution I found was spam paralysis grenade while your teammates shoot it to death. That or a Tachanka / Fuze right in the face.

Stealth is nearly always the best approach but sometimes you gotta go in loud!
