T2 FM Campaign: Matriarch (March 31, 2023)

I'm really struggling with Mission 3
I got into the office and collected the papers; ran all around, but couldn't find any new places to go so I'm back in the attic safe area of the mercantile building.
How do I figure the code for the safe, since it is not what is written? there are no readables with clues that I can find.
This seems to be the thing I need to figure out before I can pursue further objectives (sub-basement, church, lady bafford, etc)

radogoal, the business card has to be used in one of the small rooms between the elevators and the main church room. There is a place where a sign says something like "tell us who you are to receive some blessing". The actual words are different, but the idea that the visitors should leave something there to show who they are should be clear. This is the place where to leave the card. You have to use it with some kind of plate, or just drop it onto the plate, I think.

You have most likely identified the correct house at Nob Hill, but aus usual, the front entrance is not the way to enter it. Instead, look for a way to enter the house from below. The starting point of this way can be found at the underground railway which you should have noticed already when travelling into the church. The place from where you enter the Lady's house is at the other end of the railway. I think it is the Masterson shipping company, but I am not 100% sure. You can either travel to that place on foot, or with the railway "car" if it is still functional and if you have found the codes for the destinations in a storage room nearby.

Once you are there and in the rooms of the company, you should find another way below ground which ends at a wall with a secret door. There should be a pipe nearby with a wheel you can turn. This opens the secret door, and you will emerge in one of the rooms of Lady Bafford's residence.

MrMunkeepants, to gain access to the church and Lady Bafford's house, you should look in the sub-basement of the mercantile insurance building. Examine the elevator carefully to find a clue. If you don't see it: There is a button or switch near one of the elevator "stations" that open the way down to the very bottom of the elevator shaft.

I do not remember whether the button makes a metal plate at the bottom slide aside so that the elevator platform can now travel further down (which would be done with the lowest of the standard elevator buttons then), or whether the metal plate at the bottom actually is a second elevator (which would mean you have to step off the "normal" elevator, send it up with one of the elevator buttons, and then step onto the lower, second elevator platform and drive down with that one) - but one of these two possibilities should be the solution to that puzzle.

About mission 2:
Found 4 out of 5 secrets
1 and 2 are: statue and purse in basement area
3 and 4 are: finding the communal lab and boulder secrets.
The last secret is left uncovered and my dying curiosity does not let me to finish the second mission before find it.
Anyone found the last secret in mission 2?
Also is it possible to go to the caves where the bodies are found at the beginning of the mission?

1. When dealing with Mages and Necromancers, anything is possible, and reality can be an illusion.
2. How you got into the communal lab is similar to how you can get to where the bodies were.

I finished mission 1 but I had trouble with 2 things which are optional and need to know the answers because this mission is incredible,I don't want to miss a thing.I read the answers here but the hints don't help me at all and I spent way more time than I'd like to,trying to figure out the answer so I would really appreciate a direct and obvious answer as to what to do.
1.I can't get into Cartiff! [spoiler]the hint was 'vertically',but where do I shoot the rope arrow?[/spoiler]
2.[spoiler]I know there is a secret basement where I met the client,I see an unfrobbable button and three unfrobbable doors but I have no idea how to get there[/spoiler]

1. Some fenceposts are wood.
2. Actually, you see an unfrobbable button, three unfrobbable doors, and a sign. Look closely at the sign.

Hi Balboa thanks for the quick answer and congratulations for this amazing mission. But this is quite embarrasing for me. [spoiler]I know you said previously some fenceposts are wood and I did that,to get to the silversmith opposite cartiff but I see nothing near cardiff where I can rope arrow to.I shot rope arrows all over the place for the last few hours!Also I have been looking at this sign at the basement and right clicked like crazy,nothing happens,I see something different on the lower right corner of it but nothing happens.What am I doing wrong? :([/spoiler]
