Disable guards using your own vomit, because why not?.
It's official: throwing up on stuff is the new poison dart. As I wrote on first laying eyes on Styx: Master of Shadows, the game holds promise not because it's particularly original, but because it reinvents old stealth and assassination mechanics in ways that suit the protagonist, a grotty goblin rogue with a thirst for magical amber. This extends to disabling enemies indirectly. Spotted a water source or plate of fruit? Consider gobbing in it, to weaken any guards who might stop for a bit of refreshment.
