Lady Taffer: Now that you have the mallet, there's only one way to get back to the Bloated Burrick. Have another swim through the canal.
On your way back, you will pass by (or through, depending on your travels) Ursula's house. That's where you need to go to complete the "speak with the dead" objective.
As to the
Hammerite stations, one of them is in the canal, at the far end where the fishing pole is, above the grate. They are hard to spot, so you need to keep your eyes peeled.
As for myself, after an extra 30 minutes in this mission I've found 1 new piece of loot, have
14 out of 16 Hammerite Stations and know what the last bonus objective is about
Rutherford... but I have no clue as to where to find it.
I'm also wondering where the last 2 Hammerite Stations are. Previously in the thread someone mentioned that there are 6 by the canal... but I can only count 4. One on each side of the canal entrance, one by the unopenable gate, and at the far end of the canal by the fishing rod. Can anyone help? I'm not looking for the Bloated Burrick, I'm looking for Ursula's place. Also. . fishing pole? I never saw a fishing pole anywhere. :confused:
I have found a few hammer stations, though.
However, I don't have the key for the sewer grate (the one above water level and across from the Hammerite temple) and have no idea where to find it. I've also found
Ursula's place at the end of the canal, but the rope arrow hanging from the beams is too high for me to reach. What do I do?

Lady Taffer: If you've pulled off the heist and have the Mallett, there should now be a Mechanist corpse in the canal. It has the key you need.

Thanks, I came back to post that I just now found it. :cheeky:
But why is there suddenly a mechanist corpse in the canal? What did that have to do with me getting the mallet?
EDIT: Finished it! That was a great mission, though I wasn't able to find all the hammer stations. What happens when you get them all?

a mechanist corpse in the canal? What did that have to do with me getting the mallet? Most of the mission can best be described by "Suddenly there is a", unfortunately. Most of it comes down to backtracking over and over again to areas you've already explored to see what has changed. I spent alot of time lost and aimlessly wandering before tapping out and asking for help here.
I enjoyed this mission overall, but the 'whoops something has changed go figure out what' style of moving forward and the surprise enemy appearances were bummers. The body in the canal with the key appearing at a certain point was especially puzzling.
Not knocking the mission as a whole as it was really good but there were some less than choice gameplay decisions.

All dogs go to heaven! Not that you're a dog, though :erm: - just an obscure Bluth reference.

Easy elevator instructions:
1.
Get to the upper ducts from the Lions stairwell.2.
From the top of the elevator, press the maintenance button to lower the elevator.3.
Pick open the middle ducts, and exit through onr of the rooms.4.
Press the elevator button in the corridor.5.
Go back through the rooms to the middle ducts.6.
Jump down to the lower ducts. I did it in a different manner:
I got on the elevator on the level where I walked into that area. After that I got up and down meanwhile picking the lock from the middel duct. Went in there and into some rooms, got back and toyed with the elevatorbuttons, so I could get up to the top level, got back down and found the dead body at the lowest point, walked all through the lowest ducts. What do I need to do next ????
I used the button at the back of the toolbox.
I'm looking down at a woman in a bathtub.What do I do from here?

Balboa: This was a great mission!!:thumb: I had a little trouble finding the needed parts to the plan, but after that I had a great time!!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!:eek::D

Gloria,
In the lower ducts, you will find the Vermin Buster. You need that!
You'll also need to find, and read, the instructions for the Vermin Buster. You'll need to visit Verminatrix, on Park Street.
And, you'll have to pick open the sewer grate in the canal.
Then you can head over to the Great Tree Shrubbery, on Market Street. Look for a key there.

I'm so glad you're here right now. I got back from a birthday party and wanted to play your FM further .... It's so great!!!:cool::thumb:
I did all you mentioned, so perhaps I'll get over to the Great Tree Schrubbery now.
