Mission plan | Mission 6 - Return to the Tower Dishonored Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Overall premises
This mission takes place in the [Dunwall Tower] location. The primary aim is to reach the top level of the tower in order to eliminate Lord Regent. Traditionally for this type of quests, you will have the opportunity to decide if you want to kill him, or just deprive him of all his power in a more humanitarian way. Apart from the main quest, there are also side quests to perform, that are worthwhile checking out while exploring the tower.
In a nutshell
Below, you can find a list of all of the sub-points to this guide, connected with the described mission. If you want to explore the area thoroughly, follow all of my instructions from end to end. If you prefer to concentrate on the main mission instead, turn your attention only to the pages with the note (compulsory) attached.
Steps to take:
- Reach the waterlock top level (compulsory)
- Reach the Dunwall Tower (compulsory)
- Explore the area around the Dunwall tower (optional) - You may encounter several obstacles while exploring the area, due to numerous security systems. Even though, it's worth checking out as there is some valuable loot to find here.
- Infiltrate the Dunwall Tower (compulsory)
- Explore Dunwall Tower's ground floor (optional) - The ground comprises merely the main hall and a few side rooms.
- Explore Dunwall Tower's first floor (optional) - In this case, there is quite a considerable area to explore. This subsection also describes the dungeon in which the Torturer dwells. You can reach the area by means of a staircase on the first floor.
- Explore Dunwall Tower's second floor (optional) - It is best to ignore the Lord Regent's chamber during the exploration of the second floor, and leave it for the end. In the remaining rooms, there is some loot to collect.
- Explore Dunwall Tower's third floor (optional) - On the third floor there is only the Broadcast Control Station connected with one of the side quests.
- Infiltrate Lord Regent's chamber (compulsory)
- Choose your way of eliminating Lord Regent (compulsory)
- Explore Dunwall Tower's roof (optional) - An important piece of information is that exploration of the roof may be compulsory if your actions lead to alarm being raised. That's because Lord regent will take refuge in a heavily guarded room located on the roof
- Return to Samuel (compulsory)
Area Map
The below maps may serve as an additional help while navigating the area. A noteworthy fact is that you can also find it on your own. The first one is to be found in Admiral Havelock's room, in Hound Pits Pub (you can see it before taking up the quest). Another copy is hanging on the wall on the Tower's ground floor, right near the entrance.
