help - stuck in lower keep

Post by hanish »

I can't seem to get anywhere in the bottom half of the map on this level. I've completely swept everything on the upper half, but there are several doors I can't seem to open. Several doors exist that don't appear to need a key (when I right click on them it doesn't say what type of key to use), yet I can't break them open either. I don't have a thief in my party so I can't pick the lock, but in the past that hasn't been needed.

I can't, for example, get to area 13 to pick up the keys needed for area 30. The walkthrough doesn't seem to mention it at all, like getting to area 13 is easy. Can anyone help?

Actually the rest of the Lower Keep Map is only accessable from area #30. And IIRC you can get to area #13 without any problems(there are no secret areas or keys involved).

Also if some doors are unbreakable and there do not a certain key to be opened maybe you could add a thief in your party.

Thanks, but...

I still can't get to area 13. Could you maybe give directions from the stairway that is used to enter the keep in the first place. I see the room right to the south of this stairway, and I know that's the one I'm supposed to get to, but there is no direct way to get to it. I've looked for secret doors but now you're saying that it should be that hard. This is very frustrating!

Actually you can not enter area #13 from the area near the staircase. You have to go around the staircase from the left and pass the big crack there. Then follow a path near the areas with the Ancient Tombs until you reach area #13.
