The search for the Special DMZ Keys can be a long and tedious task and one that many may wish would end. Whilst this is the primary focus of DMZ, for players to loot and upgrade their gear by exploring the Maps to ensure their survival in the deployment, a new method has been made for Season 3. This is that players will be able to create their own Skeleton Key to get into pretty much every locked door across Al Mazrah, Building 21 and Ashika Island. However, not only does its Trade come at a high price but, with its singular use, the Skeleton Key is an important item that requires thought before you open any old locked space in DMZ. This guide will show you how to Trade for a Skeleton Key to use for the Sniper Team’s Hideout and exfil with the Dossier for the ‘Left High and Dry’ Mission.
How to Complete ‘Left High and Dry’ Mission
How to Trade for a Skeleton Key
If you already got yourself a Skeleton Key for DMZ you will need to get another to complete the ‘Left High and Dry’ Mission. Unfortunately having this Key already on you does not automatically complete the first Objective of Trading for this Key at the Buy Station. If you have not obtained a Skeleton Key before, you will need to find yourself a GPU to begin the Recipe.
Best Places to Find GPU in DMZ
The GPU can be picked up on any DMZ Map, however they can only be found within specific locations on Al Mazrah and Ashika Island. Players will be able to get a GPU inside Building 21 however if you are not used to the intense combat from start to finish within this Map or struggle to safely exfil, this method may not be for you.
For those trying to obtain a GPU inside either Al Mazrah or Ashika Island, you will need to go to either the Chemical Storage Warehouse or inside Tsuki Castle. Of course, both of these require their Special DMZ Key to get into. However, you may find it easiest to go to the Chemical Warehouse and get into this building using the Door Breach glitch to unlock locked doors without a Key. Once you have found the GPU, you can Trade this item for a Skeleton Key at any Buy Station in Al Mazrah. Keep in mind that if you get the GPU via Ashika Island, you will need to have Secure Backpack in order to bring this back into Al Mazrah for the remainder of this Mission.
Alternatively, players can find the other ingredients for the Recipe: Cassette Recorder, Vintage Wine and Hard Drive in Al Mazrah to be Traded for the Skeleton Key.
Where to Find the Sniper Team’s Hideout and Dossier
The Sniper Hideout can be found inside Ahkdar Village (F6) in Al Mazrah. The Hideout can be found in front of the Statue in the Courtyard. The area in which you need to head to is highlighted in the screenshot below (red dot on the Map). Players need to head to the roof of the Buildings east of the location and jump onto the other roof to drop down the ladder and enter the Hideout door using the Skeleton Key. The Dossier in question that you must pick up is located on the table inside the Hideout. You need to pick this up and exfil with it in your Backpack to complete the ‘Left High and Dry’ Mission.
Equally, you can get to the Sniper Team’s Hideout by climbing the Ladder located on the north-east side of this Building. This will take you to a small staircase and to another Ladder. Do not climb up this one and instead go to the door that located on the right and use of the Skeleton Key to unlock it.
That was our full guide on how to complete the Redacted Mission ‘Left High and Dry’ by Trading for a Skeleton Key and using it to get into the Sniper Team’s Hideout to extract the Dossier inside.
