Strange Altar
Anyone know how to use the Black Grimoire and the Book of Helm?
I tried the usual (putting the object in the slot) but nothing happened. I double clicked and still nothing. I right clicked but there was no option to "banish" or "complete ritual".

The way the alter works is by clicking on it.
It should start up a dialog-box, where you can choose between various options, depending on which course you want to take.
If it dosen't open up a convesation/dialog-box, I don't know what is wrong.
Have you patched your game fully?
btw - I've added a spoiler tag to your thread title, to avoid people getting spoiled unless they want to.

Re: Patches
Well - many reads the forums for other information, and doesn't read walkthroughs. But it is a minor spoiler - but it is just to be on the safe side.
As for the alter bringing up inventory, then there definately is something amiss. I just checked in the toolset, and when it is clicked it should start the convesation allowing you to do various stuff in regards of the books you can use.
Although you get some exp and a little other reward - the alter is not plotcritical, so it isn't neacesarry to complete that part.

I updated and I'm pretty sure I patched it. I'll redo it. Yeah, I did click on it but all it did was bring the inventory up.
No problem about the spoiler tag but its listed on the walk thru about the strange altar so I didn't think I was spoiling anything for anyone, sorry about that.

Oh you smart person!
I found that out accidently. I was trying the palm altar as stated in the walk thru and found out just last night I had the wrong altar. Now if I could find out how to disarm some really tough traps like the one in Helm's Hold... I have my "disarm" skill on max and even use tools + 6 to no avail. My pc is a sorcerer 4th level and I've tried ice storm and fire balls -- spells that normally destroys most chests... oh well on Chp. 2 now but would have liked to have cracked that one.
Thanks again, Malia
