Disco Elysium autopsy guide How to pass the autopsy in the mobile version of Disco Elysium

The autopsy in the entire plot of Disco Elysium is a key part of advancing the main case, consisting of three stages: examining the body, on-site autopsy, and uncovering hidden clues. The task requires overcoming the corpse smell check, filling out four parts of the autopsy form, and may trigger the hidden discovery of a bullet in the skull. Today, we will introduce the process of the autopsy mission in Disco Elysium. During the process, attention should be paid to skill allocation, item preparation, and dialogue choices, otherwise, key clues may be missed or checks may fail.

Before the autopsy begins, preparation is crucial. If you don't have yellow gardening gloves, Kim will take charge of the autopsy while the player needs to record; if you have gloves, your character can perform the operation. If you lack a work manual, you can choose to borrow Kim's notebook or trigger the side quest "Find the Manual." It is recommended to equip clothing or thoughts that enhance attributes such as "Shrug Off" and "Esprit de Corps" in advance to increase the success rate of subsequent checks. Ensure sufficient health and morale to avoid penalties due to poor condition.

The core of the autopsy is to fill out three parts of the form, checking each part of the body in sequence. When measuring height, passing the "Shrug Off-12" check allows you to correct Kim's estimation error, change the record to "1.85 meters," and gain extra experience. When examining the hair, repeatedly touching it will reveal a lump on the head, which is a key clue for the hidden quest "Find the Bullet." Cutting the ligature around the neck requires passing the "Shrug Off-11" red check. It is suggested to choose "Find an Ideal Spot" to trigger passive check bonuses from "Esprit de Corps" or "Inland Empire," increasing the success rate.

Special interactions and hidden content require special attention. Passing the "Inland Empire-10" check allows interaction with the deceased's hands, unlocking additional dialogue options. If you previously lied about the boot number, Kim will find out during the autopsy, at which point you can choose to correct it or continue the fabrication. When writing the conclusion, choosing "Uncertain Cause of Death" and having previously discovered the lump on the head may trigger the hidden quest "Find That Bullet Before You're Made a Fool Of," requiring "Esprit de Corps-14" and "Visual Calculus-14" checks to re-examine the body thoroughly.

This concludes the sharing of the Disco Elysium autopsy process. After completing the autopsy, choosing "Send the Victim's Body for Examination" will end the mission, but note: if you want to keep the side quest "Get the Hanged Man's Boots," you should delay sending the body for examination until Kim leaves and then steal the boots. Careful recording of details during the autopsy can improve the "Good Cop" score, affecting the final outcome. In summary, reasonably allocating skill points, making good use of check bonuses, and paying attention to hidden interactions are essential to fully uncover the truth behind the autopsy.
