SpoilerShow
I passed to the 3rd floor of the tower from above, then faced the "dodging" puzzle, saw the key in front of the head that is shooting lightning bolts but couldnt reach it (it pushes me away as im trying to come closer from any direction). Searching brought me a key that fit one of the door locks (west one), there was a lever (i used it but dont know what was happened), and this was a point that i stuck at for that moment. After some scoping i found rune button but again didnt realize what it affects. Then i tried to remove all rocks from the plates and - bingo! - the trapdoor in front of the passage was opened. I fell into it and found a way back to the previous level (opened stairs), but the trapdoor in front of the passage was still opened and blocked my way back to the second closed door, the key in front of the head and a puzzle that i havent solved yet ("You need light to travel in the darkness"). So the questions are: 1) what's the point in pressing the rune button? 2) how can i open the second door on the east side of the map? 3) how can i get back to the shooting head after passing the next level?
Thanks in advance!
PS Great dungeon, top 3 for me so far. 1st dungeon that made me ask for help :)
Hi,
Switch and "rune switch" off Light ball from the head. In the alley to the head is a hidden secret key.

Hello, I need your help. How to destroy Undying One? I have the Weapon of power, but it only stops him for moment. I tried to decompose him, but there was nothing to take. He takes no damage from any kind of weapon.

You can use the console to spawn one of the part items and put it in and take it out when he's stunned and he will become mortal, then you can kill him. But that would be TOTALLY cheating in this case

Slugging through this guy. Lots of fun. Thanks for putting it together.

Unfortunately, I found a bug. Level 17 when I click on the green crystal to heal the game crashes. Here is the log:
SpoilerShow
#crystalHandler:256: bad argument #1 to 'findEntity' (string expected, got nil)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'error'
[string "ScriptInterface.lua"]: in function 'checkArg'
[string "ScriptEntity.lua"]: in function 'findEntity'

I should add that I clicked on it once before without an error prior to battling the ogres. This is when I clicked on it on the way out. Thought I'd let you know.
