To crack the Hitman Freelancer Bank Vault, you'll need to know the combination, which is hidden in a series of puzzles.

The first step is to find the combination to the safe, which can be found in the briefcase in the office.

You'll also need to find the second combination, which is hidden in a book in the office.

The book is titled "The Art of War" and can be found on a bookshelf in the office.

The Heist

The Heist is a straightforward mission where Agent 47 needs to disguise as a High Security Guard. He then simply needs to obtain a Security Keycard to gain access to the Vault Area.

In this mission, the objective is as simple as it sounds: get in, get the keycard, and get out. The lack of complexity makes it an ideal task for Agent 47's skills.

Planning the Heist

The team's objective was to steal the famous painting, "The Night Watch", from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.

They spent months gathering information about the museum's security system, which included motion detectors and cameras.

The team planned to use a duplicate key to gain access to the museum after hours.

They also created a disguise for the team leader, who would pose as a maintenance worker to blend in with the museum staff.

The team's plan was to break into the museum through a side door and make their way to the gallery where "The Night Watch" was displayed.

Executing the Heist

Executing the Heist was a complex operation that required meticulous planning and coordination. The team had been gathering intel for months, studying the museum's security systems and identifying vulnerabilities.

The heist was set to take place on a Friday evening, when the museum was closed to the public. The team had chosen this time to minimize the risk of detection.

The team's leader, a skilled thief known only by his alias "The Fox", had assembled a team of experts with diverse skill sets. There was "The Ghost", an expert in disguise and deception, "The Architect", a master of security systems, and "The Muscle", a hulking giant with a talent for intimidation.

The team's plan was to create a diversion near the museum's east wing, drawing the security guards away from the main exhibit hall. Meanwhile, "The Architect" would hack into the security system, disabling the cameras and alarms.

The team had also brought in a local artist, who would create a replica of the stolen painting to display in the museum's gift shop. This would serve as a decoy, making it seem as though the original painting had been moved to the shop for safekeeping.

Finding Safe Codes

You need to find three safe code clues to crack the code and open the safe. These clues are typically items like laptops, tablets, and stacks of documents that glow yellow when you use Agent 47's 'Hitman Vision'.

Use your detective vision to look around the immediate vicinity of the safe, within one or two rooms at the most, for these glowing items. You can also use Instinct mode to search around the locale and highlight the clues in yellow.

The safe code clues will be nearby, so you won't have to stray too far to track them down. You don't need to have visited the safe itself to start collecting these clues, so grab them as you see them to save time and avoid backtracking.

To scan the clues, select your camera from the inventory and aim it at the item. Get the item in the middle of the camera reticule for a couple of seconds to acquire the safe clue.

How to Open a Safe

To open a safe, you'll need to find the safe code by scanning three clues with your camera. These clues are typically laptops, tablets, or stacks of documents that glow yellow when you use your Hitman Vision.

You can use your Hitman Vision to spot these clues in the immediate vicinity of the safe, within one or two rooms at most. Don't worry if they're not right next to the safe, they might be in a room or two over.

The clues will never be on the other side of the map, so you can focus on searching the nearby areas. Once you've scanned all three clues, you can interact with the safe and input the code to unlock it.

Keep in mind that opening the safe is an illegal action, and NPCs will react negatively if they see you doing it. So, plan your disguise and timing accordingly to avoid drawing attention to yourself.

You can check the Location Intel information on the mission briefing screen to see if there are any safes in the mission, and the locations will be shown on your main map once you start the mission.
