Alternatively, if a {{SAI|Detect Thoughts}} or [[Insight]] check during the dialogue is succeeded, the party can persuade him into giving a "temporary" pass which is, in fact, just a normal pass. Alternatively the pass can be stolen from the Head Clerk's office upstairs, on a cabinet at {{Coords|-102|-180}}. If progressing through the [[Aid the Underduke]] quest, it's also possible succeed a [[Persuasion]], [[Intimidation]], or [[Deception]] check to convince Meadhoney to give the pass to the party. | ||

Each safe is tucked behind an ornate iron door that cannot be interacted with; bypassing each requires teleportation like {{SAI|Misty Step}}, {{SmRarityItem|Arrow of Transposition}}, or intangibility effects like {{Sai|Gaseous Form}}. The locks cannot be picked while in Gaseous Form. Level 10 transmutation wizards can pass through the vaults with {{SAI|Shapechanger}} for no recourse cost by flying around the gates. These safes each have a {{Ability check|Sleight of Hand|20}} lock. The contents of each safe and where to find its key is listed in [[The_Counting_House#Notable loot|the Loot section]] of this article. The keys follow the naming convention "Counting House Safe n°X Key". Lockpicking and looting these vaults will '''not''' trigger any security response. | ||

Docks line the southwestern perimeter of the Counting House. They can be reached through the door at {{Coords|-114|-193}} connecting to the antechamber descending into the vaults, or from the southern end of [[Flymm Cargo]] and the eastern end of [[Water Queen's House]]. Being spotted by any of the dock patrols, which include two [[Steel Watcher (creature)|Steel Watchers]], will at best result in ejection, and at worst a fight. | Docks line the southwestern perimeter of the Counting House.

Two {{RarityItem|Smokepowder Barrel|alias=Smokepowder Barrels}} and an excellent vista of the city's port can be reached by climbing to the top of the locked tower at {{Coords|-161|-219}}. Travelling west from there leads to the [[Lustrous Lass]], a ship steeped in disease and carrying a deadly [[Cursed Imp]] stowaway. | ||
