Maps for new players


Honest man

Recommended Posts

Hi, good taffers. I'm new player. I never played Thief series. I looking for maps for newb like me. Easy map, not hard quests, patrol men without lamp, no many light, etc.

Good maps for nabs, which I finished and I recomend for new players:


1. Mission 1: A new job
2. Thief's Den 1
3. Thief's Den 2: Chalice of Kings (Thief's Den 3: Heart of Lone Salvation is yet hard for me )
4. Coercion

Any suggestion, pro players?

Some shortish, not-too-difficult missions I recommend are:

 

1. The Parcel, by Xonze. Standard mansion heist with a few cleverly hidden secrets. The guard patrols are fair, but not trivial to solve.

2. In Danger of Judgment, by krrg. Possibly the easiest Dark Mod mission I've ever played in terms of guards (there are very few) but this intricate little mansion has a lot of devious hiding spots and concealed loot.

3. The Outpost, by angua and greebo. A little bit harder but still fair.

4. Closemouthed Shadows, by LordSavage and Bikerdude. One of the very first Dark Mod missions ever made, it is very short but still enjoyable.

Awaiting the Storm is also very easy, only one guard outside and few in the Tabern.

The Creeps, only 1 Ghost at the end, but a lot of scaling, good for training

In a Time of Need Few Guard which can be easy avoid (or blackjacket), little tricky to find the loot.

Mother Rose One guard and one friendly ghost (no will atack you, but don't get too close, why the aura will kill you)

The Builder Blocks 🤣

But not all small misions are easy

Spring Cleaning is a good example, short but deadly, only try it, if you are good with lockpicks and stealth skill. Some skeleton, a big spider and without more than the lockpicks, no tools or weapons.

Another small but very tricky mision is the Bakery Job, a lot of people surrounding there.

Tears of St Lucia — no helmeted or lamp-carrying guards as far as I recall, easy to blackjack most of them. Working out how to safely get into the church can be something of a puzzle though, which you may or may not enjoy.

In the North (William Steele 1) — well-designed mansion interior, I don't remember any helmets or lamps, although there are quite a lot of guards in total.

Off the top of my head, and besides the ones mentioned before, I'd recommend Mission of Mercy.

There are many guards in it, and might be a bit harder than the ones mentioned by Zerg Rush, but it's still a straightforward mission with lots of dark spots to hide, and if you like blackjacking, the guards are easy to neutralize. I'd say it's as hard as Chalice of Kings.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
