help...I am in the tomb at the graveyard first quest by garreth...i have put the runed figurine in the urn and am now in the right tunnel at the mystikal flames all of them harm you...how do i open the gate?????I have found the purple potion to the right bu cannot get it due to the fact that the dang flame kills me evrytime plz help me get past this point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude. Stand at the very beginning of the corridor and hold the shift button while moving forward. This will cause your characters to run and this should get you through the gate. You should also take a moment to read some to the walk throughs. Use it as guide when you get stuck. If I had read this more often I wouldn't have to start the game over for times.

If Chokings tips don't work...what I did was I stood right on the flame that healed and I dropped a cheapo wooden shield on that spot..so that it would think someone was standing there..then I ran thru the damn gate...lol

I carried a crate with me and ran, getting the crate caught under the gate to keep it open. That side is tricky and tough. It all depended on perfect timing with me. If you find that you still can't get past those flames, you can always stack crates at the other set of collapsed stairs and get the other jindol to try the other side where the trick is to stay out of the center fire and flip a lever on each side of the room. Do use your online help file for clues to get through this and the rest of the asylum! It really gets you accustomed to the game!

Hi, Welcome to the board,

OK, Choking's tip should work since you're in the Wizard's path. Do not stop in the middle flame... you'll get fried. Just run like Hell and you should be OK (you can also jump over the flames while running to take less damage).

Good Luck

How did you make out?

PS: Use Moni's trick for the Warrior Path. But you have to make sure the box is not broken or, if you're using a chest, that it's not open.

Ryanamur,
I don't know about open chests but I made it through with a busted crate.

who did not leave any crates intact LOL

Welcome to the board, Nermal98!!!

Did you make it through the gate?? That puzzle is pretty tough for so early in the game when you're still learning how everything works. Using a crate/chest always got me through, hope you've made it too!

I guess you're just better at it than I'm Mony. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif I never made it past the Warrior's gate with a broken crate or an open chest. The Wizard's path is easier since all you have to do is run!

LOL it was the Wizard's path (in my second play through) that I managed to make it through with the busted crate.
I tried for what felt like days (it could have been LOL) before I gave up and started a new game (since I did not know about crate stacking and climbing) and took the Warrior's path where I just had to stay out of the center flame and stay alive after the levers were flipped long enough to get through, so I do believe, with you having made the Wizard's path by just running, that your abilities surpass my own.

Nah, I can't accept that I'd be better than the great Moni. That's just not possible, you rank up there with Wyv and Saz http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif I'm still a few steps down the ladder http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
