Mission 6: First National Bank and Trust
Get ready for a bank robbery. Not only must you get into the bank; you must get into the vault. Stock up on water arrows; the mechanists have been supplying the bank with security robots, and water arrows are the only way to deal with them. There are also a number of human guards, so some flash bombs will be handy as well.
This mission is quite difficult, especially on expert level. There's no loot requirement, but there is plenty of loot around. Almost every room in the bank will have something of value. Be sure to explore on your own and find however much you think you'll need for the next mission. Set a personal objective - you can find at least 1,000 with little effort.
Because the guards cover vary large areas in this mission, your experience may be slightly different than what's presented in this Walk-through. Just be cautious and always have your blackjack and water arrows at the ready to deal with the opposition.
Getting into the Bank
There are several entrances to the bank. Here are three possible ways to get in. The first is the one you'll want to use to follow the Walk-through.
Entrance #1 - The roof: Turn left from your starting point and follow the path until you come to some crates stacked by an archway. Climb up the crates and onto the arch. Walk across the arch and follow the ledge, then climb up the wall onto the roof. Ahead and to the left, you'll see an inclined area. Walk up the incline and get on the ledge next to the large, glass dome. Follow the ledge around the dome. Continue across the roof to the western edge. There will be a raised section of the roof here. At the southern edge are some doors. Pick the lock, then shoot a rope arrow at the wooden ceiling. Climb down the rope into the meeting room. Knock out the guard if he's around; the room is well lit, so you may need a flash bomb to do it.

Entrance #2 - The basement: Go right from the starting point. Knock out any guards you encounter. The path will dead-end at a wall. Nearby is a locked window. Pick the lock and scramble down into the basement.
Entrance #3 - The back door: Follow the path to the left. You'll come to a work shed with a ladder to an underground passage. Go down into the passage, follow it to the end, and climb up. Continue following the path west. If you see any guards, knock them out. You'll soon come to a doorway with a guard in front. Knock out the guard and go through the door.
If you use the basement entrance, you'll want to unlock the vault before you proceed to the hall of records, so skip to the appropriate part of this mission Walk-through. If you use the back door, you'll enter very close to the hall of records. Just go up the steps, extinguish the torches, and open the door to the west. The next section will tell you how to proceed.
