The map is Breakout. There are 3 of us thieving and about 5 guarding.
I decide I'm going to ghost, and it seemed my teammates were doing the same as well. I think we had 2 KOs, and after stealing the heavily defended key, we go up the B stairway.
I open the door to find, surprise surprise, traps galore and an RLF player standing in front of the doorway. I quickly moss and drink cat+invis+speed and make a run for it, but get firebolted and killed. I tried for about 3 lives to get in and finally I got lucky and broke through, at this point with no KOs.
So I run and hide and wait awhile to only to be discovered by a random flare-scan. Get up and run again this time right into that RLF member who lays down caltrops. No big deal though, I drink a speed and run off. He drinks a speed as well and easily chases me into the library. There, another guard meets up with him and I go to a corner and throw down my FB. No affect whatsoever on my RLF buddy, who continues to chase me down. In my last ditch effort with 1 hp I drink my invis pot and run to an obscure corner. The firespamming begins and I'm toast.
The ways of DMing have been nerfed, and ghosting is supposed to be the way to go. Well, I'm sorry but I feel that guards have been beefed up to so much of an extreme that only a select few maps are beatable now as a thief.
Anyway, I'm done now.
