Walkthrough talk:A Stealthy Approach

Sly 1 Gadget Trophies

Just took a look at the page, and seeing the Dive Bomb trophy made me wonder; aren't the gadgets in Sly 1 all earned in order, and not a certain gadget for a certain level? I can't be 100% sure, but I think that if you were to never get all the clues in a particular level, but then in the level Flaming Temple of Flame, you earn all of the clues, you would get the Dive Bomb gadget from that safe, and therefore the Dive Bomb trophy.

So, if this is true, shouldn't the Dive Bomb trophy instead be applied to the actual gadget page? Or maybe we have it as sort of a thing like "this is the original order of levels, and we are going to assume that you get all of the clues in order, so you will get the Dive Bomb gadget/trophy here"?

Thanks in advance for any input from anybody.

I thought the gadget was level-specific, meaning each level has its own unique gadget or vault reward that can't be obtained anywhere else. If that's not the case, please correct me; it's been a while since I touched the first game.

To answer your other question of first appearances of trophies, the Walkthrough pages should cover trophies that can be obtained only in that Job - taking SCTT as an example, a trophy that is given for collecting all the Secret Sly Masks should not be listed in any walkthrough page, simply because the last Sly Mask can be attained anywhere, depending on how the player progresses. To answer this specific question, then yes, the Dive Bomb trophy should instead be listed on the actual gadget page, and not on this walkthrough, if the case is that gadgets are not level-specific.

Thanks for bringing this kind of stuff back up - it was a good reminder of what it should and shouldn't be on the Walkthrough pages.  Shrev64  Talk  Contribs  Master Thief  03:31,12/17/2013 

Alright, cool. I'll take a look later tonight, start up Sly 1 real quick and get all the clues on Fire Down Below or something, see if I still get Dive Bomb, then I'll get back.

Checked it out (nearly a month after I said I would, geez) and it's true, you get them in order, and not by level. So I'll remove the trophy from this page and apply it to the gadget page.

And by the way... The trophy templates say "earned in this job" so I can't really put it on the gadget page...
