Reach The Dome and steal the key | Mission 7 - Manipulation Styx: Shards of Darkness Guide

Last update: 11 July 2017

In this mission, you cannot be spotted, or you will automatically fail. First, go left and climb the stairs. Wait for the guard to go out into the balcony and squeeze through into the room. Enter climb onto the stairs on the left (there may be another guard in the room, but she will go after a while).

Climb higher over handholds

At the top of the stairs, wait for an opportune moment to jump onto the handholds to the right, next to the door. Climb up over there, into a small passage. There, take the double door on the right.

Move over the handholds to enter the dome

From the balcony, jump onto the rope over the chasm and climb to the very top. Jump towards the balcony below, right next to the dome, and go left. Stick to the barrier, because there may appear a the dwarf in your way. It is then best to hide behind the balustrade, one he sniffs you out. (as an alternative, you can use an odorous vial). As soon as he goes away, go left, behind the dome, where there are handholds on the rocks. Thanks to them, you will climb higher and drop down over the rope.

Climb into the dome over the window, onto the beam with the alarm bell - from here, you can eavesdrop on the conversation - Reach The Dome and steal the key | Mission 7 - Manipulation - Mission 7 - Manipulation - Styx: Shards of Darkness Game Guide

Climb into the dome over the window, onto the beam with the alarm bell - from here, you can eavesdrop on the conversation. Your task now is to rob priestess Maloak of a medallion. After the conversation ends, there are two ways in which you can proceed:

  • Follow the priestess up until the guards leave her alone, or until the moment you will be able to drag them away;
  • Unhitch the alarm bell, jump behind the priestess immediately and turn on invisibility in mid-air. Then rob her. Then, hid behind any object, in the shadows.
It is a good idea to collect quartz - before that, distract opponents - Reach The Dome and steal the key | Mission 7 - Manipulation - Mission 7 - Manipulation - Styx: Shards of Darkness Game Guide

It is a good idea to collect quartz - before that, distract opponents

Wait now for the priestess to go leave the dome with the guards following her. Start mining for quartz (optional). Before that, distract the opponents with a bottle, by putting out the torch with stand, or by unhitching the other alarm bell. It is better if you have some amber left on you to activate invisibility, if you fail to finish mining for quartz and the guards will approach too much.

Escape the dome

Escape the dome the same wayyou came - Reach The Dome and steal the key | Mission 7 - Manipulation - Mission 7 - Manipulation - Styx: Shards of Darkness Game Guide
Escape the dome the same wayyou came

Escaping the dome is similar. Behind the beam with the bell, there is a figurine with handholds on it. Climb up over them and jump across the window. Return to the starting point, by following the same path. The only difference is that you will not jump towards the rope, while in front of the dome - drop down onto the balcony below instead, then onto another one and climb down the stairs towards the two guardians. After you have walked around them, you are there.
