Wasteland Hints
Is there some way I can get the filing cabinet in the lobby?
1 of 10: Well first you need to walk over to it.
2 of 10: If you're planning on robbing the clerk, he probably won't give you a room key afterwards. So if you want a room key, get it first.
3 of 10: The only thing keeping you from the cabinet is that wooden railing.
4 of 10: Is there a skill, attribute or item that could help here?
5 of 10: It's not that high a railing.
6 of 10: Use climb on the railing. But the wasteland is a tough place, the clerk might have some precautions...
7 of 10: First he and his dogs will attack you. But he's got another little surprise for you.
8 of 10: The filing cabinet is booby-trapped. You'll notice it if your characters have perception.
9 of 10: Is there a skill, attribute or item that could help you get past the bomb?
10 of 10: Use bomb disarm and picklock on the cabinet.
