Killing witches and non lethal

[Ambiguous winkyface]

Can I still kill witches and obtain the non lethal way of playing?

[ghost]

Yes. Unless you want spoilers, I won't tell you how. It can be done, though.

So killing witches will result in the end of the mission saying 'no kills' as done?
So they're a bit like dogs in the regular game, where I killed 1 and still got entirely nonlethal at the end of the mission.

No, Witches are humans and as such will count against the Cleanest Hands achievement when you kill them.
It always weirds me out a bit when people ask what they are allowed to kill during their non-lethal playthrough, you're not supposed to kill anything, even if the game is being weird and lets you get away with killing Riverkrusts and possibly hounds.

Lol it has nothing to do with moral or whatever you're crying about. It had to do with the fact that in the sewers I gave that witch a hand, and then shot her (obviously for she scared me in first instance)

I'm not crying about anything, just making a statement about logic.
It's plain stupid to kill things during non-lethal run, regardless of what is 'allowed' and what isn't, if you killed something it is no longer a non-lethal run.

Anyway, you messed up and will have to re-do that bit if you want the achievement.

Logic: If the game allows it then it does not count against you. You're ignoring the actual rules put forth by the game and instead you are LARPing your own imaginary rules.

Welp in the meantime I've completed it low chaos(no single kill). Dealing with the witches in the manor was just, well, constantly teleporting past them until they lost me.

This DLC was extremely short btw. Tis funny how Corvo didn't kill me when I killed him with a grenade in the main game (accidentaly, I took all his 'boss hp' with the grenade, but when he was beaten into submission the grenade explosion immidiately killed him there too lol).

Logic: 'non-lethal' means 'no killing'. Words.
I'm not talking about Logic specific to this game, but even if I did, I'm not ignoring anything or using my own imagined rules, i'm just stating that assuming anything other than 'non-lethal' means 'no killing' seems weird to me.

You're taking it a little to litteraly dude...

Sorry. I didn't read the OP too closely. I thought the OP was asking if the witches could be taken out non-lethally. I assumed the OP knew the witches were human and therefore could not be killed.

Meh, and you guys are interpreting things into words that aren't there, we are all flawed in one way or another, I prefer being flawed my way :D

It's like saying 'move a pion' during a chessgame and then shouting 'BUT I WANT TO MOVE AN OTHER UNIT'. Not everything is to be taken litteraly.

Anyhoot, already finished it non lethal, didn't kill any dogs either (because i love you)
