Welcome to the Dot! Now that the polite stuff is done. lol

I will assume you have some knowledge of the maps. If not, go to the Arx Hosted site and to files and get a copy of them. May as well mention the patch while I am doing it.

Now, this is not as hard as you think, you just need to find or buy a levitate scroll or learn the spell if you have the runes for it. If you use scrolls, you will need two. Actually you need at least three! You will see why once in there.

You need to get to that part of the map where the number 16 appears in that cave area with Guru. Just as you enter on the left of the cliff you will see a rock formation. It will allow you to get to a slightly elevated point. Cast or use the scroll, and just float over there. SAVE first! I could give you a reason, but that wouldn't be fun! lol If this isn't helpful enough post again, use the maps as to where you are, and I will be glad to help. Someone else may well beat me to it as well.

Here is the map I am refering to.

You have to watch the map levels and the area levels differ at times. Messed me up more than once.

Ok. let me make a stab at this then and see if we can get on the same map and same section and get you in there.

You need a key you should have found in the goblin prison on level 2 in room 13. There is a secret button in there you need to find to open a secret room. Once you have that key, go back to the big double doors in area 15 on the map. Key will open and you will be in the caves. Go explore, talk to the NPC in there and then do the stuff I told you about. Activate the teleporter in there when you get that skill.

Now let's see if we have the wires uncrossed.

Now you have me stumped. It has been a while since I played, but the key is there in the prison. You did find the secret room in room 13 with the note from Iserbius right? You should have found two keys in that room. You did free Polsius(sp?) as well I hope. You will need to if you didn't yet. If you don't get that door key in there you may need to reload to before you went in that room and see if it show up then.

I sure hope it is just one you missed picking up. If you battle and accidently drop items, they will be there, but hidden in the pixels of the game and impossible to see unless you put the cursor right over them. I lost a quest item that way one time.

Anyway, ckeck it out and see. And I suggest STRONGLY you save after every item you find, every battle and every new level. Keep all the slots full! This game does have some bugs that seem to hit one in ten people, and you never know when it is time. lol

Man, you saved me, I remembered I had found a key named "key to Goblin Outpost" and had stupidly left it with some other keys on the floor of a room in the dwarven mines!!(due to lack of space in my inventory, and I didn't have a keyring then!!!) Thank god I remembered where i disposed it, otherwise i would quit the game or go mad and search all the levels to find the game(unlikely) Many many thanks, i wanted to finish this game ,I like it very much! Now I killed the dragon and finally off to kill the final villain!
