Arx Fatalis Hints
How do I open the locked chest inside the reserve?
1 of 9: This chest requires a key.
2 of 9: You'll find the key somewhere in the city.
3 of 9: Obviously, someone has gone to a great deal of trouble to keep the contents of this chest secure. Someone who has something to hide...
4 of 9: Atok the Quartermaster has the key to the chest.
5 of 9: Search his bedroom thoroughly.
6 of 9: The key is hidden underneath Atok's pillow. Use it on the chest to unlock it...
7 of 9: ...but before you do, take notice of the red glow emanating from the chest. That glow means the chest is trapped. Some precautions may be in order before you open it.
8 of 9: You can find a scroll of Disable Trap somewhere in the city.
9 of 9: Take the scroll from the king's bedside chest and use it on the trapped chest to disarm it. Now you can unlock the chest safely.
