I think what is stumping you is that to reach the last doorway the pillars aren't of almost equal height as they were for the other doorways. One pillar especially, seems too high to reach. Get your character to the center pillar and face toward the northern doorway. Save your game. Slowly walk forward and figure out just how far you can walk in midair before you fall. If you fall, reload your game and step as far out as you can. Press forward and jump at the same time and you should catch the edge of the next pillar and pull yourself up. D

Doesn't saving your game during that trial break the quest? I am sure I read that somewhere although it could just be saving in the final part with the fire pillars (which I experienced

)

Just the final trial is bugged. The bug occurs anywhere a door closes and you must kill all the creatures for the doors to reopen. If you save and reload, the game 'forgets' to open the door. D

Thanks for that, still worth highlighting though as this bug did cost me an hour or two!!
