Pandora's box

[Jparratt]

is this investigation in the theatre? if so that's kinda lame that I'll have to wait to finish it

[Leeroy]

Yeah, you gotta wait till towards the end of chapter 5

[Dexterityy]

Where is the key for the safe in the theatre?

[kesat]

Just go upstairs again. As soon as you found the safe there are some enemies who respawn on the upper floor.

Do not open Pandora's box! Or make a backup save.
I did warn you :p

Also lame that you need to find a note to make mobs with the key spawn.
I came there multiple times, looked everywhere for secret rooms (there are voises coming from the walls all over the theater) even slept with not enough xp to level, just to make them spawn and nothing!?!?!

Eventually i noticed a note on some wall there and only after picking it the mobs spawned. Wtf? Even read guides for it, not a single one mentions any note

Yeah, once you reach the little office room the safe is in (Swansea will be in the room directly behind it, part of a main quest, so gotta wait until that point in the game to even get there; game is kinda lousy with timing on this particular sidequest as you have to go the theater a couple times) you'll see a note pinned to the back wall above the desk area. As soon as you grab the note, 2 Priwens will spawn on an upper floor. If you enter through the front door of the building from the street, immediately go up the stairs on either side of the entrance, and both Priwen will be there, towards the left (I cleared everything beforehand, so ALL floors were empty, read note, and they appeared on the 2nd floor near the entrance).

After killing one of them, the key for the safe will be added to the inventory.

IF you are going for a "feed on everyone" run, you can read the journal in the safe as it includes the last hint for the quest giver.

IF you want the best sword and access to a hidden area, do NOT read it. You'll loose a "hint" for the quest giver, but doesn't matter.

Also, FWIRW, if you have most of the collectibles, but are missing 1 or maybe 2 for the floor plates to get the sword, it IS possible to guess them. As far as I can tell, it won't be whatever you are standing on, so you have a 1 in 3 chance to guess one of the others, though if missing say 4 and 6, they might be the same i.e. 4 and 6 could be a fish, etc..
