A Guide to Obtaining and Using Looter Keys in Graveyard Keeper 2

Spoiler warning: the Final Battle is mentioned only as a late-stage challenge; no outcome is described.

Early Game: What Looter Keys Are and Why They Matter

After the introductory stage in Graveyard Keeper 2, Keys for Looters become a special currency tied to making orders from Davy the Dagger. They are not scattered as ordinary map pickups, so the supply lines depend on challenge rewards, event participation, and later shop access. The route is described in a Destructoid guide for Graveyard Keeper 2.

First Acquisition Milestone: Sewer Brawl I

The first clear acquisition point is Sewer Brawl I. To enter the fight, travel to the entrance in Central Town and speak with the NPC squad. That conversation starts the battle, and the challenge is completed by defeating all enemies. Finishing Sewer Brawl I awards three keys.

Later Combat Rewards: Sewer Brawl II and Final Battle

The same key currency also appears from later combat milestones. Sewer Brawl II and the Final Battle can provide additional Keys for Looters. Because these are tied to fight completion rather than map exploration, players need to track the brawls as the main combat-based sources.

Event and Shop Routes: Sewerana and the Jeweler

A separate acquisition path is participation in the Sewerana. If you take part in the Sewerana, you receive guaranteed Keys for Looters. This creates a non-map, non-brawl option once the relevant content is available.

A shop-based route opens after upgrading the shop to Tier II. At that stage, the Jeweler appears in the shop and sells one key for one Silver. This gives players a predictable conversion path from currency to keys.

Spending Stage: Port Club, Davy the Dagger, and Order Costs

Keys for Looters are spent at the Port Club in the docks on the southeastern part of the map. Davy the Dagger is inside. Once the Wharf Rats quest is completed, players can make purchase orders from him. Order costs vary by size, and the big one tops out at four.

Current Stage: Where Looter Keys Fit Now

At this point, Looter Keys function as an order-focused currency rather than a general collectible. The early route is Sewer Brawl I for three keys, the later routes include Sewer Brawl II and the Final Battle, and guaranteed supply can come from the Sewerana. After the shop reaches Tier II, one key can be bought from the Jeweler for one Silver, while spending continues through Davy the Dagger at the Port Club after completing the Wharf Rats quest.
