Turning Ethereal

Post by DRG »

I've been trying to kill Oria. She broke her staff and turned ethereal. I went to the game room and flipped the switch to activate Inner Sanctum mode as the Walkthrough suggests. The Ice Golem in the room even notes that Inner Sanctum mode is activated. According to the Walkthrough "She can be easily defeated now." Not so! She's ethereal and my party is not. We can't touch her.
Is there something else I have to do besides activate Inner Sanctum mode? Is this a bug?

As I recall, you must switch the mode in the room with the battle squares.

Mode 2 must be selected.

It should work...if it doesn't, play around with settings until it does =D

I can't help past that...which, sadly, appears to be what you've done...

Thank you. I played around with all the settings of the mode selectors and it finally worked. I had the bottom selector turned on and when I turned on the Innter Sanctum selector the ethereal setting didn't work. But when I turned on the Inner Sanctum selector and then turned the bottom selector off my party turned ethereal and we were able to kill her.
Turning the bottom selector off before turning the Inner Sanctum selector on doesn't work. It has to be the other way around.
