As some of you have noticed, especially if your a hansel that the mechanics seem odd. For example, i can assa a guy and can scout him but i cant steal, i get the DTW message. However an attack build can steal said target. Whats the deal has anyone figured this out?
He has no gold out, but you can still pin his spies via scouting/assassinating. Thats why. At least, thats what i found warring with hansels
Also - depending on when you hit, i.e. he/she may have just regenerated, or stolen and had some gold out for the attack build to steal.
