    Ghost Mode - How u doin'?

    What is the longest you have survived in Ghost Mode so far? And what is the highest rank you have reached?

    I just clocked 10hrs44mins, reaching level 17 and upgraded a hell of a lot of the skills, then, whilst in a helicopter, crashed into an oncoming plane and became one with the side of a mountain.

    Guess I gotta start over now. :/

    It really seems like "avoid helicopters" is the crucial strategy to Ghost Mode survival.

    On my forth - and last, Santa Muerta willing - Ghost. I killed my first one by driving over my own Mine, the ONLY *******ed SAM in Ocoro got my second one after dismantling Security, and my last was killed by a an SB Heavy who was apparently a ghost himself, as he killed me from behind by running over a Mine without setting it off; had half the Cartel dismantled at that point.

    Currently, I have the full Exo-Suit and the Blue shader, three of four Cartel operations dismantled, and I’ve just recovered Sandoval’s body. Sitting at Tier 19 right now, and I’m guessing that I’ll be around Tier 10 by the time I’ve got the Cartel eradicated. I’ve been fully clearing out each Province to completion as I go - all Skill Points, Weapons & Accessories, Kingslayer Files & Legends, Locations discovered, etc.

    The real trick is to just turn Tier 1 mode off when you have to go hot. I’ve been killed by enemies before they’ve even raised their weapons or fully rounded a corner before, so there’s no point in trying to fight fairly.

    I really wish there was more tweaked for Ghost Mode. Health Bars would be great, I really wish Fast Travelling could only be done from a Safe House to another Safe House, and auto-save should be disabled and Safe Houses allow you to manually save.

    I’ve gotten out of a few pickles, like being holed up in a building with all three team-mates dead, knowing death was just around the corner, and simply quitting the game and reloading it. So cheap!

    Well, right now i'm probably trying my luck with ghost mode. Died 2 times now, the first one was thanks to me being dumb and trying to stop the first mission convoy solo(no AI), got ran over XP. The other one was from attempting the sam fisher mission (admittedly, i had no idea the mission was so tough at lvl9. technically my first attempt at the mission too. got past the stealth section undetected somehow....). Both deaths were at a time when my actual main campaign only had yuri and palito cleared.... I guess i was rather ambitions XD(and yes, i just got GR wildlands). On my third life now ,working on the stewmaker after clering half of the game in the actual campaign.
    P.S. To anyone playing helis in ghost mode, if you fly up to 1500++ altitude(i went to 2000 alt to be sure), SAMs systems can't target you since you're too high. But your only way back down is by parachute(which is pretty risky in of itself, had 2 AI died once to this)
