Fullgame Tutorials
Covers a growing number of individual level and fullgame speedrun strategies.
Differences between Master and Professional difficulties:
- Longer viewcones
- NPC can hear your footsteps when you trespass
- Note: Inconsistent mechanic, NPC will react to footsteps at random distances every time
- Some items are moved (not very impactful)
- Extra guards / enforcers / cameras (not very impactful)
- Disclaimer: The mostly used Professional and Master strategies are largely the same at this point as the Master difficulties have become less important to modern speedruns. The result of this is most people choose to play on professional difficulty for the fastest and highest level of competition.

FPS dependancy for Sierra kill
Since patch 3.150.1 shooting Sierra through the wall has been inconsistent on lower FPS. If you are running on a patch that is OLDER THAN 3.150.1, this will not be effecting you as heavily.
