Kyshakk Koan Firecage Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 If you enter Erika's tower how do you get into the room behind Erika? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I think you can exploit the "fight-end combat" bug to do this. However, I don't remember anything interesting being back there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 You can't without using unsavory methods, and there's no reason to. Jeff didn't intend for you to get in so he didn't put anything in the room. —Alorael, who is glad that this question is still alive and well.

Kyshakk Koan Firecage Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 whats the "fightand combat" bug and how do you get into that biulding with no doors in new cotra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 The fight-end combat bug is where you start and then end combat so that you get past the special encounter and into the room. Dikiyoba hasn't played A3 but remembers the screenshot well. Unfortunately, Dikiyoba has no knowledge of the room in New Cotra. Edit: Sig change.

It's used to get over specials you don't want to trigger. Of course, I really don't understand how this would help you get into Erika's private chambers in A3. There's a locked door, which keeps the fight-end-combat bug from working. The same is true of Sulfras' chambers. The inaccessible building in New Cotra becomes accessible by following the directions of the Avernite operator in Sharimik and Lorlei.

No, the door is so powerful that even Level 3 Unlock Doors won't open it (thus the need for unsavory methods). Alternately, you could go find the key which the special tells you you need (but which doesn't exist). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated Ur-Drakon Tyranicus Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Actually, I know for a fact that I used Open Doors Level 3 to get in there I had to summon shades to get the enter-end-combat bug to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, it's entirely possible that there could have been something in there. Who knows how Jeff's mind works? There could be wonders beyond your wildest imagination inside the room in Dharmon that has no entrance in A1, the area behind the Vahnatai temple in A2 that also has no entrance, or in the outdoor map section just south of the Honeycomb in A1.

Unflappable Drayk Lazarus. Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Well the glitching across the rune works, and I used unlock doors on level 3 to open door. It also is possible to get back across the rune and out of the tower. I have a screen shot, but can't figure out how to put it up. I'm sure most of you have seen it done before, so I won't lose to much sleep about it. Edit: This had me thinking, Ericas chamber is clearly just a red heron, and isn't relevant to the plot. But how about the chamber in Ghirka? Sure enough you can get there too, before you are supposed too. It opens up some interesting plot holes, and quite possibly tore a hole in the fabric of time-space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk 1337 h4x0r Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I did manage to get in and out of the room, but I guess it's not really worth bragging about it, most people should be able to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Rent-an-Ihrno Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 you know, there are 3 avernums and 3 erikas, thus 3 towers and 3 rooms behind erika. i think in a1 and 2, you can get into the rooms around her, but not in a3. impossible. nothing in there. so you all are right. the building in cotra is the bunker. it will be available to help you later in the game. be around in upper avernum, and youll know when to get in. even later than that, you can get over the runes in ghikra. you cant miss that point.
