Navigating the shadowy streets of Karnaca in Dishonored: Death of the Outsider requires both stealth and keen observational skills. Throughout Billie Lurk's journey, cracked safe combinations yield valuable bonecharms, gold coins, and crucial story items that make missions significantly easier. Understanding where to discover these codes or how to crack the locks ensures you never miss out on vital loot.
Early Mission Safes and Environmental Clues
In the opening mission, players encounter their first locked safe inside an apartment accessible via overhead pipes. Following a long-standing Arkane Studios tradition, this initial safe uses the classic code 451. Unlocking this safe right away provides early resources that help establish momentum for the challenges ahead.
As you progress to second-mission targets, clues become more integrated into the surrounding environment. For instance, a safe in an apartment requires players to count books sitting above a nearby chalkboard to deduce the combination. Environmental puzzles like these reward observant players who take time to thoroughly explore every room.
Cracking the Bank Heist Vaults
The grandest heist in the game takes place at the Dolores Michaels Bank during Mission 3, featuring a major vault with six individual lockboxes. Opening these safes simultaneously relies on mathematical logic based on the famous Fibonacci sequence. The primary sequence uses the combinations 011, 235, 813, 455, and 891, intentionally skipping the fourth vault number.
Specific safes inside the bank also tie directly to environmental contracts and story lore. The safe belonging to Morgan Yu requires entering 315, which references the starting coin total noted in the contract. Players can also acquire Christofer Jeorge's code by completing tasks that expose corrupt politicians in the city.
Special Locks and Endgame Codes
Not every secure container relies strictly on a three-digit numerical combination. In Shan Yun's residence, the third-floor safe is protected by an audiograph security system rather than a numeric tumbler. Players must navigate the mansion to locate the specific gold audiograph and play his signature song to unlock the door.
In the final chapter, players must crack the safe inside Malchiodi's room to gather deep lore regarding the Outsider. By inspecting the strange markings drawn on the walls, you can align the corresponding runes to input code 962. Deciphering these final combinations rewards players with unique corrupt bonecharms that enhance Billie's powers.
