It may have been intentionally scripted for this one occasion but it happened in mission 1: Shadow Plans by Ricebug.

- killing NPCs with hammerite hammer(obtainable from their armory) still could thwart "no kill" objective
- you can set off mine by shooting a water arrow on it , also applies to alarm button and light switch
- you can jump down from great height without losing health by landing yourself right onto someone's head
- vase can be used to bash down wooden door , in certain mission you can even bash tjhe wooden door with scroll!
- secret doorways can be easily identified by spotting rough and bizzare rectangular texture on the wall
- you could kill yourself by sitting atop of fire in the fire place and by crouching down or standing on the bottom of elevator shaft or dumbwaiter shaft, you can kill guards the same way by luring them to escalator shaft
- apparently you could block sword attack by throwing wooden crate right before the guard swung their sword to you(can anyone confirm this?)

I can't confirm this.
Also, my concern with this is that a crate might get destroyed in the process and how would you stack crates and reach areas you shouldn't be able to get to if you wreck them? :cheeky:

Doesn't it take 5-6 sword slashes to destroy it ? :D
Tangentially related, usually you can find solid beige brown colored wooden crates virtually in every OMs or FMs , but i can attest that darker brown crate does exist and it's typically more vulnerable to sword attack and fragile be thrown around. Thus, you just need a few slashes to destroy it.

I rememeber playing the original thief gold and in the lost city I had was falling from a ledge - the garret "aaaaaaaah" was interrupted by bouncing OFF a patrolling fire elemental onto the ground. Zero fall damage, just burn damage.
I was so startled and laughing so hard I lost control and proceeded to walk into the lava.
I have tried multiple times to purposely replicate the fall on fire elementals but haven't repeated it yet.

Usually if it's a one of the stronger crates and it's Garrett doing the throwing. I haven't thrown one at a guard so I'll have to experiment.
