After spending some time inside AtomFall‘s Wyndham Village, you’ll eventually reach St. Katherine’s Church. Inside the church, you’ll find a locked chest, and opening it will provide you with some valuable items. Fortunately, the key is just nearby and it’s just a matter of knowing where to look. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ve found the right place.
All the best ways to find Vicar’s Key in Atomfall
There are several methods to obtain the Vicar’s Key in Atomfall, and here they are.
Kill Vicar
Of course, the easiest way to access the locked chest is to simply kill the Vicar standing next to the murdered body and loot Vicar’s key. However, we highly suggest doing the “Murder in the Church” lead first to avoid missing out on content and rewards.
Solve Maisie’s Murder to get Vicar’s Key
Initiate the St. Katherine’s Church Lead and progress through the mission. Toward the end, you’ll need to choose from several dialogue options, each of which will affect your relationship with Vicar, Captain Sims, and Morris.
If you choose to side with the parishioner, he’ll hand over the key to the chest inside St. Katherine’s Church when you return.
On the flip side, choosing the Bargaining option, where you agree to hide Morris’s secret, essentially lets him off the hook. However, this will damage your relationship with Vicar McHenry, who will then refuse to give you the key. That said, you can still kill the Vicar afterward to loot it.
Blackmail Vicar
For a quicker, less violent way to get the key, start by heading to Molly at the Traders Camp in Slattendale. Purchase an Atom Battery and listen to her. Next, go to St. Katherine’s Church and talk to the Vicar. He’ll ask you to keep quiet about what you’ve seen.
Continue the conversation until the Bargaining option appears, which says ‘I’ve heard you own an atomic battery. I’ll take that as payment for my silence.’ At that point, he’ll hand you the key.
