Well, if you can try searching the desk while 2 high lvl EITC soldiers are wacking ya over the head....then no, you don't need to defeat them.

But it is pretty hard to avoid them for the few seconds you need to search the desk. So best to defeat them first.

[Owoooo]

Hmm, I'm stuck on this quest too. Where is Theives Den? I've heard of it alot, but I've never actually been to it.

I am also on this quest and just logout from Thieves Den, because it said nothing interesting here also. I have tried the desk, the barrel outside the building and the carate outside also. Nothing?!

if you're looking for "the list" from a desk in the EITC hideout you won't find it in thieves den. it's next to doc grog's shop in the village in tortuga. you should see the little sign for the doctor's place and then there's a door right to the left of it. once you get inside there's one medium level guard there you need to kill, then you can search the desk for the list.

Oh no. Sorry about that. uhmayzing is right.

I am seriosly giving bad advice here. This isn't the first time I directed persons to the wrong location. I must be getting old.

Well, the good news is you got some experience from killing those EITC's soldiers.
