Poor Protection | Jobs - Basso Thief Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Employer: Basso [South Quarter / Riverside - The Siren's Rest]
Availability: You get the opportunity to take this mission after you have completed the fourth chapter of the game. You need to meet up with Basso again, but this time at The Siren's Rest tavern in the South Quarter.
Your destination has been shown in the above screenshot - it is located in the Northern part of the South Quarter, in South Quarter / Riverside - Glimmer Lane close to the passage to the Stonemarket district. Before you get there, make sure that you have, on you, the Wirecutter, because you are going to need it while exploring the location.
I recommend that you approach the squat [South Quarter / Riverside - Eelbiters Squat] from the South-Western side, while minding the patrolling guards. Locate the ledge above and jump to grab it. Thanks to this, you will be able to start the exploration of the squat. During the exploration, watch out for the trap here, try not to spring it and ignore, for a moment, the cupboard. Explore the remaining part of the squat, and find a locked safe with a Coin Purse - 15G, Earrings - 12G, a Pocket Portrait - 4G, Gold Coin - 1G, a Wine Glass - 10G and a Coin Purse - 14G.
It is not easy to find the switch for the trap, because you need to jump over out of one of the windows in the squat and reach the external balcony on the Eastern side. Use the wirecutter and return to the cupboard that you have ignored earlier. You can now open it, thanks to which you will find a Pile of Coins - 5+5+5+50G. At this point, this mission ends.
