There are many resource boxes that the player can loot in Dead Island 2, but some are locked and require a specific key to open them up. One of the first locked boxes that Dead Island 2 players encounter is Eddie's Toolbox, which requires a set of Landscaper's Keys to unlock. This guide will show players where the toolbox is located and how to get the right pair of keys to open it.
Dead Island 2: Eddie's Toolbox Location
Eddie's Toolbox can be found near the very beginning of Dead Island 2 in Emma Jaunt's mansion. Her white mansion, located in the Bel-Air area, is where players will meet the supporting Dead Island 2 cast and the general setup for the game.
Players will be able to find Eddie's Toolbox once Jaunt's assistant Michael lets players out the back door, and the box will be located on the back of an open pickup truck in the driveway. Like other keys in Dead Island 2, the Landscaper's Keys required to open the toolbox can be found by defeating a specific enemy.
Dead Island 2: Landscaper's Keys Location
The Landscaper's Keys are located at Colt Swanson's mansion, the giant orange house that neighbors Emma Jaunt's residence in Bel-Air. Players should be familiar with the house as it is the first location that can be explored after the introduction to Dead Island 2.
The keys can only be earned there after defeating the zombie known as Green Thumb Eddie. The name will appear above the enemy's health bar. Although, Green Thumb Eddie will only appear after players have completed the 20th main story mission, Boardwalking Dead, where players defeat the boss enemy Butcho the Clown, at Venice Beach.
Green Thumb Eddie is a Butcher, an Apex zombie that can deal a lot of damage and regenerate its own health. One tip is to attack Eddie once he starts healing and keep attacking him once knocked down on the ground to get critical hits. Defeating Eddie will drop the Landscaper's Keys, and players can return to Eddie's Toolbox next door to unlock it and receive a reward.
Dead Island 2 is now available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
