Plan your next Burglin' Gnomes session

Our independent guide breaks down Burglin' Gnomes into actionable strategies, helping you master stealth, teamwork, and crafting without relying on hidden tricks. By focusing on each core element, you’ll keep the High‑Gnome pleased while maximizing your loot and survivability.

01 / THE GUIDE

Entry Planning

Map out potential entry points on a piece of paper before starting a heist. Compare each option’s visibility and distance to high‑value loot, then choose the safest route.

  • Plan your entry point before moving inside to reduce the chance of being spotted.
  • Balance loot collection with task completion to keep the High‑Gnome satisfied.

02 / THE GUIDE

Task Prioritization

List all assigned tasks and rank them by time required versus reward. Completing quick, high‑impact tasks first reduces the risk of dismissal.

  • Communicate entry and exit routes with teammates to avoid accidental alarms.
  • Divide tasks among players to ensure the High‑Gnome's requirements are met efficiently.

03 / THE GUIDE

Efficient Crafting

Identify which looted items can become tools that aid stealth. Craft those before decorative pieces to ensure you have functional upgrades early.

  • Prioritize tasks that use items you already possess to save time.
  • Check the task list frequently to avoid accidental dismissal.

04 / THE GUIDE

Co‑op Role Division

Assign each teammate a specific role—scout, loot collector, task executor—to streamline actions and avoid overlapping responsibilities.

  • Focus on crafting tools that enhance stealth before building decorative items.
  • Upgrade your home early to create a secure storage area for valuable loot.

05 / THE GUIDE

Survival Monitoring

Set a mental timer to check teammates’ status regularly. Promptly rescue or heal a gnome before the High‑Gnome deems them unworthy.

  • Use environmental objects to create barriers between you and hostile entities.
  • Keep an eye on teammates' health and intervene before they become unworthy.
