KEEPER OF THE PROPHECIES - Missions 7-9: The Inheritance The
ending to a very unique campaign. This mission could’ve been made a lot shorter,
rather than trekking through the enterprise all over again. There are hardly
any enemies, so all tension is gone. It is just to get done with the mission
pack at this point, which is rather unfortunate. If the compound had been
sealed off except for the southern offices, this map would’ve made a lot more
sense. There
is hardly anything to report. Only one live guard existed in the whole
mission, a patrolling swordsman close to the southern offices. Two other
guards were sleeping in the northern complex. Only two problems were
encountered, both relating to loot. The first were some coin stacks under the
north freight lift. I chose to wait for the southern lift to ascend all the
way up so I could drop underneath it. I used the ledge of the central pillar
to break the drop into the canal system (left image below). After getting the
loot, I ascended to the northern lift with a rope arrow into the side of the
wooden outcropping. Climbing down from above was nearly impossible.
The
other loot in question was in Waxman’s office. His purse was protected by a couple
of mines and an explosive charge. I picked the lock from atop the table. I
had to grab the charge first, otherwise it fell into the metallic safe and
made a whole heck of noise. The aforementioned swordsman was in this area and
he could hear the commotion. I dropped it into the safe quietly afterwards; I
figured this was the most logical place. You
can actually take damage during the camvator
sequence where you speak to Alicia. I doubt this is a bust, as you have no
control over anything during this sequence, plus the camera is not showing
Garrett’s point of view any longer. It’s silly that you even can get hurt
during this. Anyway, if toggling crouch before the sequence, you lower the
risk of getting struck by the arrows. It sucks that you have to wait through
such a long sequence just to see if you take damage.
