Foxiest of the Hounds + Pacifist Achievements
This guide will explain various methods to get the achievements very simply.

--

Augmentations:[/b]

1. Invisibility
2. Energy recharge rate
3. Hacking levels
4. Icarus/Jump/Lift Heavy Blocks
5. Typhoon
6. Dermal Armor + Electricity immunity

BONUS: Run/Jump silently.

What you should spend your money on:[/b]

1. Typhoon ammo
2. Candy bars
3. Candy bars
4. Candy bars
5. Laser Rifle + Ammo (you will find one mid-game and end-game)

Weapon of choice at the beginning:[/b]

Tranquilizer Rifle. Get the stun gun in the beginning of the game by looting from a garage.

Tips:[/b]

1. Do not take down enemies if you can sneak past all of them.
2. Don't attempt to save her.
3. For the first boss, just throw grenades/mines at him. Use the fire extinguisher to suffocate him then throw a fire barrel or more nades or empty your magazine on him. Use typhoons for the second boss (you should have at least four typhoons to kill her). The third boss can be defeated by hiding behind a wall in the an exterior corner and spamming nades/mines/ammo on him until he throws a nade. If he does, start running to another corner and repeat. As for the final boss, you should have a laser rifle all geared up with 500 energy. When the fight begins, immediately sprint towards the boss, turn on your invisibility, and fire laser at her. Ater a few seconds, she will die.
4. Make multiple saves for every area you clear.
5. Always quicksave everytime you try to do something you may regret. :)
6. Only use invisibility if you need to. If it's a large room full of enemies (i.e., the last level), you can just cloak and run past them. I have used this ability many times at the Omega Ranch and was never detected.
7. Keep in mind that it is possible to get these achievements without any augmentation/weapon (except for the bosses), so play with that mentality and only use augmentation for very specific needs.

This was how I got my achievements.

FAQs[/b]

Does "killing" an enemy with a tranquilizer rifle/stun gun affect the achievement?

No. I have killed multiple enemies with the tranquilizer and still got the achievement.

What lethal gun should I have?

Laser rifle and either a magnum or a pistol for room space and boss fights.

When does the Foxiest of the Hounds get canceled?

If either of the following conditions is true during your gameplay:

1. A soldier physically activate the alarm panel.
2. A camera notices you and activates the alarm.
3. A camera spots a dead body and activates the alarm.
4. All hacking attempts are used up. (always save before attempting to hack anything)

Thanks for the guide! But um ... there's a quicksave button?!?! Do you think you could tell me what button it is please? XD
Thanks!

No, I simply can never accept not to save Faridah Malik. BTW, Except for the last and the first boss, Combat Rifle with Target-Seeking Flechette works great, even more effective than Typhoon when fully upgraded.

Clarification on Foxiest-- Foxiest is often discussed in terms of getting "Smooth Operator" bonuses. However, the achievement says "no alarms," not "get all of the Smooth Operators." There's an Alarm Panel in Alice Garden Pods near the entrance with the 2 Harvesters. If one of them sets off that alarm, doesn't that nix Foxiest, even though there is no Smooth Operator bonus in this area? And even though it's not, say, a Belltower soldier activating the alarm?

*Spoilers" The Laser Rifle is an excellent recommendation! It can be used to take out Zhao Yun Ru in the final Boss Fight cleanly without chaos breaking loose, bots coming out, or doors opening on the crazy guards... The master pod doesn't need to be hacked, because the Laser Rifle can attack Zhao right through the transparent shield while the master pod is active! It's a good idea to keep the Grenade Launcher (if you have the "Augmented Edition" game), because it quickly and easily takes out the turret defenses of the Hyron core. The Grenade Launcher is also an easy way to dispatch Jaron Namir in Singapore. Properly used, however, the Typhoon (heavy damage option) will defeat any of the bosses. Zhao is just a whole lot easier to deal with using the Laser Rifle than any other weapon option, because of the chaos it avoids...

Using turrets, robots, and takedowns which result in death due to environment (i.e., electric shock, falling off an edge, etc.) all count as lethal

Weird Chap 21 Apr, 2013 @ 1:13am

If you use a turret to kill somebody does it count?
