Fledgling Fyora Bramble Grimm Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Help! I'm in the dark, AND clueless, for the umpteenth time in my life. In this case, Mayor Elmer in Mertis sent us to the Spiral Pit on The Undead Curse quest, but each time we go there, we end up wandering in the dark for a l-o-n-g time. Can you shine some light on this for me? THANKS!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Kreador Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 You have to wander through, fighting stuff and finding the gate wheels and secret passage buttons until you can get a character to the far end of the room with the pit and the pentagrams.

Fledgling Fyora Dave Sattar Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Bramble, just to be sure, have you discovered how to use lamps, lanterns and suchlike to illuminate the area around your party ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The spell "Light" Is in Avernum: Escape from the Pit right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 No light spell, but plenty of light generating objects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Painted Lady Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The first time I played the game I was so lost when I walked into the dark that I went a few steps, turned around and walked all the way back out. If you do that you can see where you were in the dark on your map. That can help keep you oriented, but it makes for a longer quest....

Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I don't know that the light generating objects help much. It's better to push on, using the arrow keys, and make sure you're ready for a blind fight with some reasonably tough opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Blacknight Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 try staying in fight mode - spread the party out and you can see more of the area. I found it better anyway.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Nekhen Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 found a chect but cannot seem to get to get -- blocked -- is there a way to the chest -- it is near the area where everything goes dark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 this thread http://www.spiderwebforums.com/forum/ubb...eded#Post268609 should help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 There are two different ways that open a way to that chest. One is wheel past a secret switch in the main corridor at the southwest and one is a secret switch that appears when you use the wheel beyond the chest area to the east.
