Dishonored Question

What counts as detection?

Trying to get achievements such as shadow, what counts as detection? Does it count if the enemy gets white spidysense arrows or does it have to be red? If I kill someone with level 1 shadow kill and they don't turn to ash does that mean they somehow detected me?

Detection is when you see the lightning bolts around NPCs' heads go red, even one of them. Shadow Kill only works on enemies you haven't alerted, so yeah if the body didn't turn to ash you were spotted. The trophies are really finicky, so it's better to be safe than sorry. Save often and when in doubt reload and try again.
