| Specifics on the Thieves mission |
|
I am doing my utter best finding the 6 blood chalices, AND the secret panels the gardner talks about, but I found NOTHING so far!!
(I completed the game 2 times, and now I'm looking for things I overlooked...) If ANYBODY would be so kind to give me an indication where and how I can find the secret panels (or their switches) and the blood chalices, I'll be gratefull untill eternity!
Thanks Y'all!

I hope you'll find the things you need in my post.
There are 6 chalices in total, almost all of them located in the upper quarter
of Khorinis, so you need acess there as well. It's quite possible to get some
of these outside the Thieves Guild, and they will sell to merchants for less
than a normal gold chalice separately. If you do happen to do this though, be
sure to remember who you sold it to.
The First Blood Chalice
Or the easiest one to get for now. It seems one of the upper quarter citizens borrowed some money from Lehmar, one Lutero, and Lehmar keeps a Blood Chalice as safety. You'll be clued into this later if you happen to visit Lutero's
house, prefferably at night. The blood chalice is found in the chest in
Lehmar's house.
The Second Blood Chalice
Is located in the upper quarter, as is the rest of them too once you have the first. When you enter the upper quarter you have houses lining the right side,
so we'll start there. You have to do this at night, sneaking into the houses
without being noticed, otherwise you'll have the paladins on your tail soon
enough. The first house on the right belongs to a mister Gerbrandt. Take care
so Lothar doesn't see you entering the house, otherwise you're fine.
Loot the place clean, ground and first floor. In a chest on the first floor , you'll find the second Blood Chalice.
The Third Blood Chalice
Out of Gerbrandt's house and into the next on the right using the same stealth
and caution. Loot the place clean and head upstairs. Nod to Valentino's wife
(yep, this is his house, but he's out drinking probably) and notice the lamp
on the wall on top of the stairs. It's the only lamp in the house that is NOT
lit. Position yourself in front of it and press the mousebutton as you would
pick up or use something and you should activate a hidden lever. Don't stand
to close, but move around a bit to get it right. This will open a hidden room
downstairs.You can also pick the chest here. Downstairs again,
you'll see the hidden room and a chest by the fireplace. Open the chest using
Valentino's key from earlierfor the third Blood Chalice.
The Fourth Blood Chalice
The now 'deposed' judge and former head of Khorinis owns the fourth chalice.
His house is on the right side of the town hall, with a special guard outside.
You have to do this by day though. Enter the house and head upstairs to talk
to the judge. You'll get an option to pick pocket his key (dex30) and also
note a coat of arms (the shield) hanging strangely low on the wall behind the
armchair here. Use it to activate a hidden lever downstairs. You might have to
do this by night.
Downstairs you'll see the hidden room right next to the fireplace, and a chest
requiring the judge's key. Inside is the fourth chalice.
The Fifth Blood Chalice
From entering the upper quarter through the main gate, pass the first house,
and head left through the alley. Continue staying to the left and there are 4
houses lined up in a half-circle around the square here. The first belongs to
Fernando, the second to Lutero, the chap that gave his chalice to Lehmar to
borrow some coin. We want the third house however. At night, Wambo or a city
guard is patrolling this area rather suspiciously and it can be a bit tricky
to enter the second house. You can pay off Wambo with 250 gold if you want, if you previously talked to Ramirez about the upper quarter - Wambo will then
stay away, but it isn't neccesary. Early in the morning (around 4-6), only the city guard will stand watch, and he can be fooled. Position yourself one step
outside the doorway to the second house and turn your back againts the opening looking at the city guard. Take one step back into the house and he comes running - step out again quickly and hear him tell you to stay the hell out of there. As he turns to walk back to his spot, hit sneak and take one step back again and you are into the house. A step to the side will put you behind the wall so he can't see you.
Inside, check out the fireplace - there's a key on it that can be a bit tricky
to spot and grab. When sneaking you probably have to sneak up on the crate of ogs for the fire, then exit sneak mode to get the key in your focus. Grab it
and use it to open the chest between the beds in the opposite end of the
house. Inside is the fifth chalice.
The Sixth Chalice
You probably won't have access here yet, as this requires you to have come as
far as getting an audience with Lord Hagen. Whatever way you do that, once
inside the town hall, head upstairs and check out the rooms there. The sixth
and final chalice is located on a table here. Just grab it and you're all set.
"You can jump the fence and sneak along the wall,
around the corner and behind the two guards"
Indeed, this works just as well if you want to finnish this quest without
joining any of the guilds just yet. As long as you're not directly in front of
the guards, you won't trigger them stopping you and can safely loot the town
hall, including the sixth chalice. A word of advice though, it's actually
possible to start off chapter 2 without joining a guild, but this can have
dire consequences for your further progress.
Hope I helped ya.
