Playthrough restraints:
~ All items and Secrets
~ No healing
~ Pistols Only
~ NO DAMAGE!
~ Pacifist where possible (mostly applies to animals)
91% accuracy based on stats screen.

As with my TR1 playlist, I feel these restraints are more inline with Lara's character as a Lady of High Standing and Reputation.

Notes:
Couple of bad spots but circumvented them nicely.

~ Elevator after the gold statuette secret is a bad ambush but enemy behaviour can be messed with by returning into the elevator, which is somewhere the enemies can't walk. Also, as I've left various foes undefeated and wandering the level, these 2 bandits will flicker in and out of reality at distance, helping the No Damage run. For some reason the game can't handle too many enemies active at once.

~ Jump to the first key at the start usually involves taking damage from the fall, but clipping the lip at just the right distance enables the fall to split into 2 separate falls. I don't know what happens to get the 2 burly brutes stuck on the roof, but if you're after the small medpack you can see it is still possible to get the drop if it lands on the slippery roof.
