O.k. I'm thouroughly stuck, and could use some help. I've made it as far as Strawberry fields and gotten the loot there, but I have no clue where to go now. I've seen mention of a Crayman's tower, and what to do from that point, but I have no clue where that is. Also I get the idea that my objective's should have increased by this point, but they are still the exact same ones I had when I started the FM.
Did I miss something? And where do I go from Strawberry Fields?
Edit:Nvm. Finally found the stairs in the tiled area. Must have passed them 100 times >.<

You didn't really say what you've done so far, bobber. Have your
gotten into the manor and been up into Lord Robert's private quarters? If you have then
there's a key to the "special room" on his bedside table. It's on the middle floor. Check around in there. Thank you. I was there indeed but must have missed it. Back I go.......

What an awesome mission! :thumb:
Finished on Expert, on a dark Gamma setting, Iron Man style (strive for as few reloads as possible) after needing 6 reloads:
* A lethal fall when I failed to grab a rope arrow. I didn´t realize until later that there is a far easier way up to the water tower than the one (with tiny margins for error!) I took. :rolleyes:
* Getting beaten by two guards when I got surprised and was too slow with a flashbomb.
* Getting stuck in four different areas (one which was the correct one!) when I could not find the way forward (the darkness made me fail to see
the opening in the water after "it´s a long way down") I got desperate and used unconscious bodies to survive falls from high distances. It was like: "Nope, I am not supposed to be here
either, and now I can´t get out!".
Finished with 700 loot from the maximum. Then I reloaded the latest save and cranked up the gamma almost to max. This allowed me to find 600 more loot (six stashed of 100 each). Three of them was loot in plain sight I had missed because it was too dark, two were loot spots I missed because I failed to see the
passage to those places because it was too dark. The last one is a bit embarassing: I was exploring the first place on the
mansion grounds you get to, the guarding area where you can look down on the square with Maggie Mae´s body. While trying to get up to a ledge, I clumsily fell down into the large metal tube that leads to the rest of the mansion (and since I play Iron Man, I didn´t reload and just kept playing), and then I simply forgot to return here later and finish exploring!

There's tons of loot and I doubt you'll have any trouble reaching the requirement by the time you're done the mission. If you do get stuck, we have a loot list made up that we can send out to anyone who's struggling. Even if I wasn´t struggling, I would appreciate a loot list, because I am curious about where the last 100 loot is hidden.

Check your PMs. (I'll publish it in a few days time.)

Found only 12800 of loot. Thanks for the Loot List, ffox :thumb:

Finished the mission after about 3 hours. Found 13,7xx loot. Took 4 passes through the entire map to find Strawberry Fields. Was rather disappointed when I found it. All that searching for a tiny area just for loot.
Never did find where to use the special key. Searched the mansion several times top to bottom and the only door that required a key was for the elevator.
Final objective never did tick off even after listening to the convo about the affair twice.
Loved all the climbing and rooftops. There's just not enough of those FMs around.

The Special room, you mean? You find that room if you
walk up the large main stairs, turn right, right again into a corridor and then you have the door to the left.

I'm pretty sure that's the elevator. The "elevator key" opens that door.
ffox on 21/12/2009 at 07:05
The elevator door is in the basement. The door you want is upstairs.
