RE: weird conjunction of fate
There are some stupid boss encounters that the game definitely could have done without (The original game handled this brilliantly with the kill phrases you could use to kill the bosses without resorting to combat) which indeed throw stealth out the window for the duration of the encounter, a number of pure stealth players are finding themselves unable to beat the first boss simply because they didn't bring any reasonable firepower so make sure to have something with a little punch before going into these fights, the game makes it fairly obvious when the boss fights are coming. And like any other action game, all the bosses seem to like hanging out in rooms packed with red and yellow explosive barrels.
There are also some beefier enemies that wear full helmets and fancier armor. It's not that bad though, whereas regular goons fall to a single head shot from a sniper rifle or crossbow these guys can take 2 shots to kill, you just have to get the second shot off quickly before they manage to spot you. They're also slower than the regular guys and are easier to avoid.
