* The strange enemy AI can cause a few such moments. For instance, you can trick them into believing a random street thug committed whatever crime you did... for which they'll kill that person and resume their patrol. And late on in the game, the faction wars come to a head, causing mass fighting between Hammerites, Pagans, and the Watch (and sometimes, even [[spoiler:Enforcers]]) that tend to leave the streets strewn with corpses...

** What's more, this tactic can be used on stairs and other inclines to break the final boss's "neck", rendering it helpless! [[spoiler:At the Docks, you can even get it to slip 'n' slide straight into the ocean...]]
* Near the end of the third game, in the middle of a very dire situation, there is one moment of humor. As the Hag appears before Garrett and Orland, [[spoiler:she kills Orland while bragging about how awesome her power is]]... and Garrett just kind of nonchalantly walks away and disappears into the shadows. It's a good twenty seconds before the Hag notices he isn't there anymore and she's just talking to herself.

* Oil flasks and moss arrows. While moss arrows always gagged guards in the series, the sound and action of them gagging is particularly funny. Of course, watching guards take pratfalls on the slippery oil is funny, but it's even ''more'' funny [[ComedicSociopathy when they do it right off a pier in the dock]]. Thanks to their SuperDrowningSkills, it's a useful tactic, too.

* Garrett's snarky jabs at the Keepers, even at a mentor and friend like Artemus, are lovely. Oddly enough, you do notice they're more playful than mean-spirited, showing that [[CharacterDevelopment his opinions on the order have evolved]] over the years.

Afterward, Head Keeper Orland makes it ''very clear'' that he doesn't trust Garrett, and warns him that if ''anything'' goes missing from the Keeper Compound, he will be holding Garrett responsible. Garrett just smirks at him.
-->'''Orland''': Is that clear?
-->'''Garrett''': Perfectly. Maybe you should translate for Caduca.
