What to invest into in the first place? | Gear and plane upgrades Splinter Cell: Blacklist Guide

First of all, I would like to share a few thoughts on the acquisition of funds for new elements of equipment and the upgrades for the mobile command center. Definitely, the most profitable method is completing missions, both the main and the optional ones. For a single mission, Fisher can earn as much as several hundreds of thousands dollars but, everything depends on the level of sophistication of the mission and on how well you have done during that mission. . The other methods to earn money is locating collectibles (10 thousand for each Dead Drop, 30 thousand for each high-value target, 40 thousand for each Blacklist Laptop that you hack into) and completing challenges (they offer the bonuses between several thousand and tens of thousands dollars).

You start the game with 70 thousand dollars on your account and it's best to spend this amount straight away on the base radar upgrade for Paladin, and a new gadget (e.g. the proximity shocker). After you have completed 1-2 missions, you will be able to buy a better radar. Also start spending money on further gadgets (e.g. sleeping gas grenades or the Trirotor), and new suit elements that improve the effectiveness of sneaking. I also recommend that, to the extent possible, you should buy the crossbow as soon as possible, which will facilitate the completion of the missions to follow.

Obtain the remaining items only after you have purchased all of the most important ones. It's worth turning attention to the alternative weapons (and their upgrades) and upgrade, at the same time, Charlie's Workshop to ensure yourself with access to new kinds of popguns. If you do not want to keep peeping into this guide, you can consider buying the upgrade that helps you locate collectibles.
