The Point of No Return | Jobs - Basso Thief Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Employer: Basso [Stonemarket - Basso's Office]

Availability: You get the opportunity to start this mission, after you have completed the sixth chapter of the game. You need to meet up with Basso again, at the Crippled Burrick tavern.

Your destination has been presented in the above screenshot - it is located in the Northern part of the Old Quarter. More precisely, it is in [Stonemarket - Stumble Gate]. To learn more about the suggested way to reach this area, see the page entitled Reach the cathedral in Old Quarter. I recommend that, before you start this mission, you make sure that Garret has the Wirecutter on him, because it will be necessary to disarm two traps.

Reach the destination from the South, by starting in the central art of the Old Quarter [Stonemarket - Grandmauden] and walking through [Stonemarket - Muddler's Row] (watch out for, at least, one guard, who you can bump into here!). Finally, crouch to crawl under the crates. Do not haste to enter the shop and examine the area to the right of the stairs, first. Use the wirecutter on the box here, to disable the first set of traps. Only after that, take the door [Stonemarket - Stumble Gate General Store].

After you walk into the shop, start by collecting the Cup - 2G, a Pile of Coins - 5G and a diary (Stonemarket - Petty Thief Diary). Examine the crates in the central part of this location, thanks to which you will find the second box for the traps. Use the wirecutter to disarm them. You can now examine the painting on the wall. Find the hidden switch and press another one, after the locker opens. The only thing that you need to do now is examine the opening in the floor and collect two Coin Purses - 10+10+50G). At this points, this mission ends.
