  5. Get the Ghost Armor.

After clearing the quest, the Ghost Armor is yours to keep permanently. You’ll find it helpful in the future, especially when you need to remain undetected for different quests.

Ghost Armor Effects

The Ghost Armor can do the following:

  • Lower enemy detection speed up to 50%
  • Reduce the kills needed to enter Ghost Stance
  • Kills may terrify nearby enemies

The more you level the armor up, the better the stats become.

Silent Like a Phantom

The Ghost Armor makes you incredibly difficult to detect, and obtaining it is part of completing the game. If you’re a veteran of stealth games, you’ll find getting this armor a walk in the park. Terrifying enemies nearby can also become addicting.
