Dishonored: Death of the Outsider safe combinations - your choice of clues, hints and full solutions

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider brings back safe combination challenges. Let's track them all down.

We've got all safe combinations from Dishonored: Death of the Outsider here for you, and present them in both full handholding walkthrough and more gently nudging form, depending on what you want.

The page is divided into three segments. Section one lists the location of each safe in Dishonored Death of the Outsider and how to find them.

Section two points you to where you need to look to find the safe combinations in Dishonored Death of the Outsider, but without giving you the answer outright.

Because many of Dishonored: Death of the Outsider's safe combinations aren't randomised, section 3 just gives you the answers - or exact steps to work them out when this isn't possible. You're welcome!

Death of the Outsider safe locations

Find all the tricky locks in Dishonored: Death of the Outsider with these quick pointers, broken down by mission. As well as literal safe combinations, we've included a safe that opens with an unusual solution, and a combination locked door. Who says we never do anything for you?

Mission #1: Apartment

After leaving the Dreadful Whale and arriving at the mission location, pass through the abandoned station to an area with a stationary freight train carriage. There are two paths into the next area - through the tunnel at ground level, or via the apartment window above you. The safe is in the apartment, by the door. You can also enter from the far side; the apartment key is hidden very close by.

Mission #2: Black Market back door

The Black Market is located relatively close to Ivan Jacobi's apartment. It's on the other side of the street from his apartment, back towards the river, in a lower area. Look for the painted hands symbol to find it.

Mission #2: Shan Yun's safe

The mission objectives take you to this location. The safe is found in the office or sitting room next to Shan Yun's bedroom, on the top floor.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Morgan Yu

There are three lockbox safes in the basement area of the bank, all clustered together. A contract objective will help you find it.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Luigi Galvani

There are three lockbox safes in the basement area of the bank, all clustered together. A contract objective will help you find it.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Christofer Jeorge

There are three lockbox safes in the basement area of the bank, all clustered together. A contract objective will help you find it.

Mission #3: Elevator Vault safes

The main mission objective is to enter this vault, where you will find a series of locked safes in addition to the one you have keys for.

Mission #5: Malchiodi's safe

This safe is found in Malchiodi's quarters, which are behind a locked door in the main living area of the cultists.

Death of the Outsider safe combination hints

Want to open a safe, but don't necessarily want the combination handed to you? Just need to know the general direction you should be looking in in order to work it out for yourself? In this section we'll tell you where to find the solutions, but not what they are. Have fun!

Mission #1: Robbie's Apartment

Pickpocket the Eyeless members at the Alberca Baths until you receive a note called "Dropped Off Bets at Your Place". This provides the clues you need to work out the safe combination - but you'll need to go back to the apartment to put them to use.

Mission #2: Black Market back door

The Black Market vendor has jotted the combination down. Perhaps you can simply read it?

Mission #2: Shan Yun's safe

No combination; the safe opens when the correct music is played.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Morgan Yu

There's a contract on the contents of this lockbox. Read it carefully!

Mission #3: Lockbox - Luigi Galvani

A bank employee note and a commonly found book together contain the answer you need. Remember all viewed notes and books are available to re-read in your menu.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Christofer Jeorge

Jeorge himself will give you this safe combination; find him in an apartment near the bank during Mission 2 and have a chat to set you on your path to raiding the goodies.

Mission #3: Elevator Vault safes

A bank employee note reveals the combinations follow a known pattern. Don't get confused by the story safe locked with two keys, which interrupts the sequence.

Mission #5: Malchiodi's safe

The answer is in this room. Read the nearby notes carefully.

Death of the Outsider safe combination solutions

Alright, fine, here are the full safe combinations; you don't have to do any further frustrating puzzle solving. Since some of the safe combinations in Dishonored: Death of the Outsider are randomised, we've listed instructions on how to work them out when there's no quick and dirty solution.

Mission #1: Robbie's Apartment

The safe combination is 4, 5, 1. The solution is derived by counting the books in each of the three sections of the hutch above the desk.

Mission #2: Black Market back door

This safe combination is randomised. Find it by knocking over the sign to the left of the Black Market vendor as you face them, then using Foresight to travel through the rat tunnel behind it. The combination is chalked on the wall next to the door.

Mission #2: Shan Yun's safe

The correct audiograph is "Release Thy Golden Locks, Gloriana", which is found in a display case in the room with the electrified floor on the second storey. You can disable the electrical floor from the nearby dumb waiter room by removing the whale oil canister. Reach the dumb waiter room by riding it up from the kitchen or down from the corridor above, or by pickpocketing or looting the key from the butler on the ground floor.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Morgan Yu

The safe combination is 3, 1, 5. If you read the contact details, it's the number of coins Yu had upon arrival in Karnaca, and therefore a number of significance to them.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Luigi Galvani

The safe combination is 2, 8, 7. This is the date of the greatest day of Galvani's life, as noted in his autobiography and indicated by a note from a bank employee.

Mission #3: Lockbox - Christofer Jeorge

This safe combination is randomised. To obtain it, you must speak to Jeorge regarding Ivan Jacobi in Mission #2, then head to Jacobi's apartment and interact with the painting behind his desk. Take the items inside and return them to Jeorge, who will give you the combination for use in Mission #3.

Mission #3: Elevator Vault safes

From left to right, ignoring the main mission safe, the safe combinations are:

• 011
• 235
• 813
• 455
• 891

The solutions are derived from the Fibbonaci sequence, interrupted by the story safe, and clues to this are found in bank employee notes.

Mission #5: Malchiodi's safe

This safe combination is randomised. To discover the combination, cross reference between the chart of symbols on the wall, and the Outsider's Mark. You can break the Outsider's Mark into three component symbols that precisely match those on the chart. The leftmost symbol is the first number, the centre symbol is the second number, and the rightmost symbol is the third number. By the way, the key to this room is found on Malchiodi's corpse, which is close to the edge of the abyss near the Eye of the Old God, and this safe holds the information you need for the Low Chaos ending.
