Started playing this module. I am stuck at level 2, despite having read some pointers in this thread.
SpoilerShow
I cannot find the "proper sacrifice". I am stuck in level 2 with no place to go. There is also a lever behind a portcullis that reads "BURIAL CHAMBERS". I put something on the pressure plate, a light green came up but otherwise I don't know what that did.
EDIT:

Ok, I found the use for that portcullis = another secret.
SpoilerShow
I have 10 secrets for level 1 now. I have put to rest the remains and I have advanced a little to the west. Pressed two buttons and nothing happened. What now? Still no idea what the "proper sacrifice" is.
EDIT2:

Ok. I feel like a compete moron. I missed one pull chain from one of the doors... Doh!

Please tell me how to do the hungry pits? I just cannot figure it out...
Edit: I think I have the basic idea, but I still can't figure it out completely... So the help would still be appreciated. :)
SpoilerShow
It does have something to do with placing something on the closed pits, right?

I am having a very HARD TIME playing this module. I am now exploring the Testament and nearby areas.

Man, this module is tough. It's pretty good although I am not very pleased with some of the changed mechanics...
SpoilerShow
- Food comsumption rate is insane, even if it looks more realistic.
- Isn't there any light spell?. Also I do not like those heavy changes to spells/alchemy.
- WTF is going on with splitting slimes? They were tough already. :mrgreen:
- Lots of exploding things into venomous clouds. Even if you make them explode from afar. :P
- I had to spawn some torches/food using console every now and then.
All in all, a very solid mod, even if it's a high difficulty one.

Hi!
Here is a hungry pits spoiler:
SpoilerShow
Close all pits exept the first one, place an item on every closed pit, throw something in an open one and run.

Thanks. Now I am stuck in level 6 trying to make a word out with some levers.

The text says:

You killing me slowly to fight the Darkness
but when I die, it will prevail
Call my name, and I will lead you out
SpoilerShow
It seems available letters are: E R U O H T D I M B L P C A.

Just because English is not my native tongue, I am having some troubles trying to guess the correct word. I tried HOPE but it seems nothing happened. I assume you cannot guess words with repeated letters, right.
EDIT: Tried PRIDE, but it is not either.

I believe the answer is
SpoilerShow
Torch, but I'm not completely sure as I'm not there yet.

I'm currently in this room...
SpoilerShow
There are three buttons and they spawn fire, ice and poison bolts. There is receptor and the lights keep changing colors. What am I supposed to do there? I cannot seem to figure it out... Any hints?

Hey. Thank you. I have tried five or six words to no avail... Let's hope you are right...
