Anyway, I "ressurected" the cube and entered the portal. Back to the tomb of designers on level 11. Now I´m trapped trying to open the doors, inf front and behind me. Found the three hidden buttons on the west and east side, but the doors won't open.

MQ's tomb entrance looks different but it works exactly like the original.
On the rest: wait and see .. or not :mrgreen:

Ah yes that's a pretty interesting part of this new sidequest.

- you can't sacrifice them on the altar because it's already occupied by the key scroll
- the nature of the artifacts relates to the area they are sacrificed at

Heh, well don't I feel dumb.

I didn't realize that the scroll was actually a part of the puzzle.

Ok, I could getr out of the place and got the weapon of power. Also took the four pieces of the undying but it still takes no damage from anything. What to do now? :P

umm .. hehe .. just noticed i mixed things, hinting to something else :oops:
Anyway, it does not change the outcome, only my reasoning.

Hi, I'm stuck at a very simple place (compared to most) at the "Time & Tide" puzzle.
SpoilerShow
I can't get anywhere. Just the first part has me stumped. I'm supposed to throw an item at the teleporter at the exact time, right? I've tried again and again, and either I keep missing the teleporter or it isn't registering anything I throw at it. Any hints?

Correct it's all about timing.

An item thrown from the mouse cursor won't fly far enough. Also a thrown weapon needs some time to travel a distance.
