A wise taffer always uses flairs
To light up the pitch-black spider lairs Taffing flares are bright as star
Flying there a billion light years afar...

You should not go in without your 36 pieces of flair.
I'mma go in with so much FLAIR the spiders will all join up with me into a huge Eurovision dance number 🌈🌟🎉
The pitch dark section was awesome! If a mission has to have one of those, this is definitely the perfect way to do it.
The rest of the mission was super enjoyable as well! Thank you for making it.

Repeat after me:
pitch-black places are bad for gameplay. Players don't like pitch-black places. Pitch-black places add nothing to the gameplay, just irritate the player. Don't use pitch-black places. Pitch-black places are BAD. Refrain from using bad things and prefer good ones.The most difficult thing to find was that dragon-themed book :)
Angder should completely ignore this (as usual) cringe take. More than enough flares were provided to make it through the section and it actually gave flares a purpose in Thief for a change.
The tense spider scene was actually my favorite part so far, though I was worried before going in. But it was relatively small and limited and had more bark than bite. It was a great section and made for some unsettling spider action.
Also, I found the dragon book almost immediately upon entering the room. 0/2. Bad form.

Finished it up. Excellent mission! I loved all the lore and how big it made the world seem. Some very funny and clever readables, I enjoyed them all.
Great gameplay, multiple ways into every area. Great environmental storytelling as well.
Excellent work, I look forward to another.

I actually wish more missions utilized pitch black shadows, there's some potential there, either for horror or just disorientation purposes.

I don't like such pitch-black areas and have just given it up, exactly because of this darkness, and because of not finding a reliable way out of the depths any more. May others have fun with this mission - I won't.

So reload a save and just don't go there. There is really no reason to go down there unless you are determined to get 100% of the loot.
