Here's a quick guide on how to manage suspicion and avoid Witch Hunters in 1666: Amsterdam.
If the wrong people notice you, things are going to get a lot harder for you in 1666: Amsterdam. You must be aware of your level of suspicion during your investigation and city exploration. Too much attention will attract the attention of the Witch Hunters, turning a simple investigation into a much bigger problem.
Watch Out For Suspicion
Any attention-getting behavior can lead to the building up of suspicion. If you notice that the people around you are becoming more alert, take that as a signal to slow down. You don’t always have to continue with your objective. Sometimes it’s best to take a step back and let things settle.
Do Not Draw Attention
Don’t be a scene when you go to Amsterdam. When you’re looking into a person, consider how you’re approaching the location, rather than simply heading straight to your target. If you need to move around without everyone around starting to pay attention to you, staying out of sight can help.
Watch out for Witch Hunters
Witch Hunters are particularly dangerous if your suspicion is already starting to rise. If you know they are around, don’t do anything to make the situation worse.
Don't try to force your way through an area, look for another route. Using the environment to stay away from them or moving through quieter streets can save you an unnecessary confrontation.
Use the Environment
Amsterdam has lots of places to get around, so take advantage of them. Alleys, buildings and other roads can give ways to get away from people watching you.
If a certain road is getting all the attention, don’t be afraid to take a different one. Sometimes it’s easier to take the long way round than to face a band of Witch Hunters.
Allow Yourself Time to Heal
If you think you are on to something, then perhaps move away from the area rather than test your luck. If you can find somewhere quieter it’s a chance to get out of the immediate danger.
When things have settled down you can go back and continue your investigation. Not every suspicious encounter needs to become a fight.
Concluding Remarks
The key in managing suspicion is knowing when to go on and when to back off. Remain hidden, take advantage of the streets and buildings of Amsterdam and avoid Witch Hunters whenever possible. If your suspicion gets too high, give yourself some space before you move on. A little patience now can save you a much bigger problem later.
