I did see some steam or something but the door seems to be intact. But it seems that there are several numbers on the pad that don't seem to work. I thought that I could try messing with the numbers and see some kind of pattern shows up but if there is I can't seem to get it and it won't take the [SPOILER]6428[/SPOILER] at all anymore.

As a last ditch idea, the starburst (aka the big explosion device) can blow the door off the hinges. It's in one of the storage areas in the mech basement.

Another question for this excellent mission:
Where do you find the number that you have to enter at the cog press machine in the Mechanists' building?
Nightwalker on 9/8/2003 at 16:36
When you enter the Mechanist building from the street door that takes you into the Warehouse room, [SPOILER] go through it and open the door on the left that's across from the door to the hallway with the elevator. Upstairs in one of the rooms is a book lying on the floor. The combination is in it and it also gives you a new objective about something else. [/SPOILER]

Thanks, NIghtwalker. That was fast :thumb: . I had completely overlooked that book and already wondered what those special arrows are for... And now the long search for 355 gold :confused:. I don't know if I really want to do this. Sneaking around all those guards yet again is getting tiresome...

I've been replaying this mission in order to make a loot list. But now I'm missing the last 40 gold (I have 2767 of 2807) and can't keep up the concentration to search everywhere yet again. Does anyone here of some loot that's easily overlooked or hard to find? I have found no loot at all in the hotel, the restaurant, the market, the cops' area and the sewers excluding the crypts (2 items). Also nothing on the streets.
If it would help, I could post my incomplete list, but I have never seen such lists here in the forum - would that be OK or is there some unspoken rule against it?
BTW, this has become one of my favorite missions in no time at all. Great story, interesting places. But almost too hard if you play on expert, to say nothing of ghosting with these hyper-sensitive guards.

Have you found the "ordinary" bottle of wine in the locked cabinet of the mansion basement? I should have made a loot list long ago.
I don't have thief installed at the moment, but maybe someone can do a report in dromed for you.

Just a late note:
You can also gain entry into the mech structure by using a vine arrow on the grating above a window that is above the large warehouse door.

Very odd...5 hours and 50 minutes into the Durant mission, and I've been all through the Mechanist facility, and only just before I'm about ask on here just exactly what IS the prototype child do I actually see it for the very first time! Destroyed it right away with one acid arrow...it's no wonder that was my last objective to be fulfilled...

[Nightwalker, anyone else]
I want to destroy the child. But I have no idea where the child is!
[spoiler]I have the acidic arrows. I noticed a big crate that says "Contents -- one Child of Karras, some assembly required" or somesuch... but I can't get into the crate. I'm guessing that maybe they already unpacked the child; but where is it?[/spoiler]
Do I need to get the sewer key to find the child? When I open the sewer door downstairs, will that dump me in the lap of the haunt I saw earlier when I was down in the sewers?
Thanks,
Dafydd
