    This Achievement requires you to unlock 15 safe boxes throughout Metro 2033 Redux.

    The 15 safe boxes DO NOT have to be 15 different safe boxes, I found one safe box and kept opening it by loading the same checkpoint 15 times.

    The easiest place that I found to farm this is in the chapter "Lost Tunnel".

    In order to open safe boxes you require a key. A key can be found on a dead body around where your partner warns you about the tin can alarm systems.

    Thanks to SDREW44 for the info about the key! toast

    When you encounter your first group of human enemies, there is a safe box in the back next to a sitting guard and a glowing mushroom. Simply sneak past the guards (or kill them, your choice) and open the safe box. Pause, hit Load Last Checkpoint, rinse and repeat.

    Below is a video if anyone needs a visual reference of the location and the process of farming the achievement.

    Good Luck smile

    l Archvile lGreat spot. Another good one is dead city. Right at the start. Key is off to the right in the enclosed area along the wooden doors you exit with bourbon. And the safe is upstairs, and you easily run right through the two trip wire bombs unscathed. Takes about 20 seconds each time.

    GerbasgamerThe safe in the market level doesn't seem to count towards this.
    EDIT: nvm I think the app was just really really slow.

    Fastest way I've found is to load up the 'Dead City ' mission, right off the start run into the room to your right, pick up the red key on the wall, turn around and run into the doorway to the right of the escalators, past the traps, up the stairs and through the halls till you get to the door. Open the door, go inside and open the lockbox on the table. Load last checkpoint and rinse and repeat till you get that precious 40g achievement.

    In the trolley combat level when all fights in the car are finish go to the left, enter in the room take the keys and open the boxes, load last checkpoint.
    It will take 10 minutes to got the achievements.
