How to Accomplish the Sloth Depletion Escalation - Level 1
Including in the Act 3: Sloth package is a new set of Escalation Contracts that set place in Dartmoor. As the name of the expansion pack says, you need to take it "nice and slow" in terms of eliminating your targets until you accomplish the "Silent Assassin" rating.
According to a guide by GamePur.com, another thing that you need to watch out during the Escalation is the "Vitality" meter bar that appears on the top-left corner of your screen. The said bar will slowly deplete everytime Agent 47 is moving or performing an action. The mission is over if the bar reaches zero.
With this fact alone, you need to execute your contracts as swift as possible.
The Sloth Depletion Escalation Contracts has three levels. In the first Level, you need to not only kill your target, but also you need to keep your starting disguise at all times.
From your starting location, you can go right around the wall and hide in the bushes next to the opening to the ruin. From your hiding place, you will spot a gardener that is coming out of the ruins. Wait for the gardener to move off to the right.
Once he moved to the right, run towards the snail statue. From there, you pick up the shuriken, then take a brick from the wall to your right. You can turn around and into the ruin before approaching the radio that is on the opposite side of the area to the snail statue.
Turn on the radio, and wait for it to trigger the gardener. Turn the radio off, hide in the bush, and wait. Once the gardener approaches the radio to turn it off, throw the shuriken at his head.
After you killed the gardener, retrieve the shuriken from the corpse's head and go towards the opening behind you.
Your next target is ahead of you. Throw the shuriken at his head to kill him. Now turn left and run to the guard by the trees. Throw the brick at his head to subdue him, then take the shuriken from the second victim and hide the body in the bushes behind him.
Run back towards the guard that you subdued and drag his body in either the nearby bushes or behind the wall if you want save as much vitality as possible.
Once you see the undertaker walking up to the gravesite, you can vault up and work towards the pedestal then take the screwdriver from it. Next, you need to move away to the right, all away out of the area, to the very edge.
You need to be cautious about a gardener that is sweeping in the area. Once they are looking away, pierce the barrel with the screwdriver. This will set a trap for the undertaker.
If the undertaker is not dead yet, run towards the bushes near the chair. If it is dead, you can run towards the exit. Kill the final target, then exit the level. Remember that you can kill a jogger to replenish your vitality bar.
How to Accomplish the Sloth Depletion Escalation - Level 2
In Level 2, your objectives will be much the same, however you will spawned in a different starting point, which is the bottom of the maze in the garden. Run ahead from your starting location and head towards a wooden stump with an axe in it.
Pick up the said axe, then move towards the boxes behind the gardeners at the back of the conservatory. From there, you kill the gardener that is furthest away from you by throwing the axe on him. You must need to wait until his back was turned.
Leave the axe and run past the corpse around the hedges. You'll see two snail statues ahead of you. Take the opening in the hedges to your right and turn on the faucet, which is located beside a stack of boxes. This will create a puddle at the bottom of the steps.
In the meantime, walk across the steps, the to the other side. Your second target will hear the noise coming from the faucet and will approach it to investigate. Then go straight to the gap in the hedge near the container.

Next, go to the house where your final target is there. Run up there along the maze's edge, then get up the steps and pick up the garden from the table. Next, pick up the tranquilizer gun from the snail statue while you are on your way up the stairs.
Wait until the target is approaching a window then cleans it. If she does, kill her with the fork, then leave the body. Like Level 1, you can kill the jogger to replenish your vitality bar by throwing the screwdriver that you picked up.
