What to Expect
Platforming on moving stones. Point of No Return - dropdown past the village
Known Traps
- Air jets in the room with the floating platforms; can be toggled by hitting target levers.
- Pressure plates in the temple hallways, eastern half of the northern corridor (electric).
- Pressure plates in the southwest corner of the second section of the temple (evil).
- Pressure plate traps are random in the given area thus the numbers for bonuses also change.
Tips and Misc
- Only when you successfully navigate ALL the moving platforms and get the sealed door; at the sealed door's left side there's a lever, that you can pull to trigger a vertically moving platform that will go; up and down, near the end door platform. The platform allows other party members to bypass the multiple jumps and airjets, etc.
- The puzzle to unlock the gate is a simple Simon Says mechanic - pull the lever and pay attention to which runes light up, and then hit the runes. You must do it three times, pulling 3, 4, and then 5 runes.
- If you kill the dragon, she WON'T die, but she won't attack. Kill the cultist to break her trance.
- The opened cavern and Lizardfolk fanatic can be found on the way to the village.
