Tips
- If you have the PlayStation 4 version of Hitman World of Assassination, you can use Contracts created by user RARusk161 if you do not wish to create your own.
- It is highly recommended to acquire the Sieger 300 Ghost from 'The Cheveyo Calibration' in the House Made of Sand Bonus Mission before attempting sniping challenges, as it significantly eases sniping.
- For the Sapienza Challenge Run, start at Town Hall Square in your Summer Suit. Bring the Silenced Silverballer and the Jaeger 7 via the Safe House. Replace the Fiber Wire with the Lockpick and bring Coins.
- Prioritize completing specific challenges tied to Silvio ([Error Plane]) and Francesca ([My Name is Hurl]) before eliminating them during the Sapienza Challenge Run.
- Shoot the Virus down from behind the Virus Chamber for the Virus challenge.
- All ten Mission Stories in Sapienza can be completed without time pressure.
- Avoid attempting both the [One Hit Wonder] and [Double Jointed] Challenges simultaneously as it can lead to bodies being found and negate a Silent Assassin rating.
- Some disguises may appear difficult to obtain but are manageable with planning.
- Begin the Sapienza Challenge Run in the Church and surrounding areas to acquire necessary items and complete challenges before targeting Silvio and Francesca.
- To start the Sapienza Challenge Run: Run to your Safe House, get close to the Butcher Shop to trigger Rocco and his sister's conversation. At the Safe House, go to the Patio, climb into Rocco's Apartment for the Apartment Key and Mansion Keycard. Drop down into the Hidden Room, go to the lower apartment for the Church Key, and change into and out of the Church Staff Disguise. Use the Church Key to enter the Catacombs entrance at the Church Pier, go into the Church Basement, switch into the Priest Disguise, and then back into your Suit. Leave the Catacombs, go up into the Church, get close to the Confessional Booth to trigger the Lab Technician's confessional, wait, then leave the Church via the north door and use the Church Key to enter the Mortuary. Close the door and prepare for the next step.
