The Planar Prison

Post by Sauron »

I found Haer' Dalis in the sewers and got his gem, and Raelis Shai did that dumb ritual and they got imprisoned in the planar prison. I went in there, and I found out i had to destroy that orb, but when i clicked it, it said something about a hand reaching into light or something...
When I walked over those blobs it brought me to these guys that go invisible, and then on the other side, there is a Wyvern, a bunch of Thalls and Thall Mages, all being controlled by their collars.
1.How do I destroy the orb?
2.How do I get past that army?
3.Why does it let me keep the collars I find, is there some purpose?
I'm trapped in there with:
~Sauron(Me)--Conjurer
~Minsc--Ranger
~Jaheira--Fighter/Druid
~Keldorn--Inquisitor
~Yoshimo--Bounty Hunter
~Aerie--Mage/Cleric

I keep gettin killed, because I am tryin to protect myself and Jaheira while still doing damage(the reason I'm tryin to protect Jaheira is because I'm tryin to work up a romance with her, I think I'm almost there[pointers on that also appreciated!]).I get Minsc to guard his witch, Aerie while he still does damage as well as Aerie, and Keldorn protecting Yoshimo as the 2 take out the evil mages.

Thanks

When you first enter the prison and kill the bounty hunters in the area, a NPC talks to you and actually reveals the needed information about all of your questions.

There is an area shortly after the arrival spot which you can use to destroy the orb. Area 2 in the GameBanshee walkthrough

2.How do I get past that army?
As the NPC I mentioned would have told you, if you destroy the orb, you break the hold on the Thralls.

That is because you don't use the orb, you use the pit which is marked in area 2 in the walkthrough.

Sorry

You've lost me. if the control orb is in room #2 how do I destroy it? I trust a person's idea more than a walkthrough.

Get the orb.
Go to area marked #2
Use the pit in area marked #2

I even seem to recall that when you passed said pit, some floating text was written which hinted at its purpose.

You even don`t have to get the orb,meaning more exp!But if you want to destroy it then just get the orb from the Master or Thralls(the big demon).He is on your right passage.Well,get the orb,place it on the hand and your done.

EDIT:you will just have to fight trought that army.Web,entangle and fireballs will kill `em nicely.
The collars are cursed and pointless,but i like to collect weird stuff that i find. Hope this answeres your questions...

Spam removed. This thread has long moved beyond it's original question. Please start a new thread, when you've got a new question to ask.

And please read the GB walkthrough carefully. It's got great answers, there. ;)
