Sorry, no rope arrows. Get up too high and the whole world implodes. :eek: Don't need one, though, so don't fret.
Funny - I thought the hatch above your head near the shrubbery place was important... maybe it's just a red herring though. I'll just look really hard everywhere for more ways to reach the apothecary.
Thanks anyway!

The means to open that grate will... 'present' itself when you're supposed to go through it.
Which, IIRC, is right after you pull off the heist in the tomb.

Fun mission so far! I seem to be stuck though.
I've fiddled with the machine until it shot a grappling hook over to the tomb roof but I can't figure out how to get rid of the hammers (chemical solution?) so that I can rob the tomb and I've spent the good part of two hours now running the entire city over and over so I must be missing something. I've unlocked the escape route and have even dropped down only to be slaughtered by Hammers. I also bashed in the doors in order to get to the roof of the plant building - did that break the mission?
I even managed to use a slow fall potion to get stuck in the Hammer cemetery :laff:
Also, are you supposed to be able to reach the balcony with the woman standing on it right outside the Hammer tomb or be able to reach the overhang between two buildings that has a wooden door with no rope arrow? You can look straight up into it but I can't figure out how someone would get up into there without a rope arrow or boxes.

Lawviz: Unkillable Cat is correct. You've opened the gate in "The Plan". Don't worry about the other gate until you have completed all the other plan requirements. .
Cops and Frobbers: Have you read everything in Verminatrix? Balcony and overhang - you can't reach them from the outside.

I laughed out loud to the novel found in the building apartment supervisors room...
"his course thumb rubbing the supple leather of his blackjack..." heheheh classic.

you can't reach them from the outside.Yeap, once I re-read the notice at Verminatrix I figured it out. You need to go to the
Lions building and do some elevator trickery to reach underneath the lift to find what I needed.
Thanks!

Need some help please :D .
Have completed 9 objectives - 4 remain at present including the tomb, the mallet and loot Had been hoping to find a key for the sewer grate in the canal but maybe that's not correct?
May have done some objectives out of sequence :erg: eg "You'll need help from someone who can speak ...." - with the aid of a barrel :tsktsk:
Hopefully haven't burnt my bridges and thanks for any nudges.

Sagittal: Read through the plan again. It tells you what you need, what to do and where to go. Find it, do it, then go there. You don't need a key to open "The Plan" grate.
I don't think you're in dire trouble - pretend you haven't done the other stuff yet!

Fair amount of frustration in this mission, though I'm trying to enjoy it.
Stuck again - The only objective I have left is helping Elanor dance with the woodsie lord and I need to find someone who can speak with the dead in order to do that.
The only one I know of that can speak with the dead (claims she can anyway) is dead at the bottom of the canal and I've been running around double checking every location that I can get to.
Edit: Well I grabbed the key to the plant shop and locked the machine onto the hammer and pressed the hammer button and something apparently has happened but I have no idea where or what it opened. This mission is an exercise in just running around blindly to see what has changed. :(

What happened was that the machine fired a cable. Jump up on the machine and do a tightrope walk across the cable.
Then you'll need to steal the mallet, then go explore the sewers which you can reach through the gate in the canal (the one above water level).
