Complete walkthrough for Part 14 of Thief 2: The Metal Age, detailing key locations, objectives, and item pickups in the Cathedral and Catacombs.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The mission objective is to find a specific key and make a wax impression of it in the underground Workshop.
  2. 2
    There are nine possible locations for the key: Pulpit, Closet, Loft, Storage Shed, East Tower, West Tower, Acolyte's Quarters (North), Acolyte's Quarters (South), and Catacombs.
  3. 3
    To ensure a consistent key location for practice, create an archive save at the mission's start and reload it if needed.
  4. 4
    Continue west along the south wall to find Hammer tombs. One contains a HAMMER SYMBOL (75 GOLD) and the other has 3 STACKS OF COINS (49 GOLD) and a ladder to the Catacombs.
  5. 5
    In the Catacombs, avoid Hammer haunts. Head east two rooms and find a blue chest in the southernmost cubbyhole containing a HAMMER SYMBOL (75 GOLD).
  6. 6
    One room east and two rooms north leads to a junction. Go west and south to a dead end with two chests: one with 5 GOLD and the other with a Hammer Holy Symbol.
  7. 7
    Return to the junction and go east through a room with a table and chair. The dead-end room to the east contains a GOLD CUP (25 GOLD).
  8. 8
    From the barrel room, go north, then west to a torture chamber with a locked chest containing a Healing Potion.
  9. 9
    Continue north, hugging the right wall, to find a cubbyhole with a chest holding a NECKLACE (100 GOLD, 100 GEMS).
  10. 10
    Go north again and pass the body of a Mechanist. On his hip is the CATACOMBS KEY [OBJ 2].
  11. 11
    In a cubbyhole north of the Mechanist, a table holds a STATUETTE.
  12. 12
    Two rooms west is an unlit room with a sarcophagus holding a HAMMER SYMBOL, and an adjacent cubbyhole contains a BAG OF GOLD.
  13. 13
    Head north-west to a locked door and stairs leading to Level 1 of the Cathedral.
  14. 14
    Upon entering Level 1, sneak along the right wall, around a cupboard, and approach the Pulpit from the south. Collect 2 CANDLESTICKS and 2 CUPS (100 GOLD, 65 GOODS) and the PULPIT KEY [OBJ 2].
  15. 15
    Search the western cupboard to find the CLOSET KEY [OBJ 2] and an OFFERING BOWL (10 GOODS).
  16. 16
    A CORONET (75 GOLD, 50 GEMS) is located halfway down the central aisle, between two pews.
Tips
  • Garrett will announce when he finds the correct 'Safety-Deposit Key'.
  • Pay attention to where you found the key and create an archive save just before collecting it.
  • Garrett will also mention picking up unnecessary keys after the first objective is complete.
  • Hammer haunts in the Catacombs cannot be harmed with holy water.
  • Moss arrows can be used on metal floors to reduce noise.
  • The primary objective is to obtain the 'Safety-Deposit Key' for Karras's workshop.
  • Secondary objectives include acquiring the Catacombs Key and the Pulpit Key.
