Problem in Skuldoon

I bought a ticket for the arena to fight the Minotaur. When I tried to enter the arena the gate didn't open although the sound effect of the gate opening did play.

My new character is still at a low level and I haven't completed any of the quests outside of getting the letter from Davenmor. I also haven't visited the the curio shop with the treasure map.

Any suggestions on why this is happening? I saved right before buying the ticket, but reloading doesn't help.

Which version are you playing?

I could only guess that it is due to you seemingly skiping stages in steps of quest which should be completed before you enter Skulldoom?

Thanks for the quick response. I think you might be right, but its just that since this activity is wholly unrelated to any quest, it seems a bit odd.

It may be related to not doing quests, but why would Yugi take the gold and say to go ahead. There shouldn't be an option to buy a ticket if I haven't passed some type of threshold. But then again, this is Dungeon Lords. Therefore, nothing is that surprising.

Anything for sure about this?

Thats is WEIRD! I just started to play a new char yesterday, and did just that, got letter from Mr Davenmor and went to Northern steppes to get WarBow and Winter dagger, and then to Skulldoon. Arena works just fine to me (my char level is now 8) and i got that nice BIG CRUSHER MACE, which come in handy in Elder trials, heh... :confused:

This sounds like the same problem where people have found that the west gate of Fargrove won't go all the way up. If this is still happening under 1.4, then that's kind of sad, but at least the Skuldoon arena is optional whereas the west gate of Fargrove is required.

If you figure out how to get around the problem, please let us know.

you must save a women(Valdane sister) and she will give you a leter to Vartug then i think there is no problem to go and kill that nasty Minotaur :)
