level 11 Tomb of Designers (after activation of the cube).

Post by Sacastor »

Howdy all,
SpoilerShow
I am at the Tomb of Designers in level 11 (The Tomb) after the activation of the Cube.

I noticed i am standing in a hallway with 2 dragon statues at both walls facing each other with a total of 3 switches.

But when i am standing on the plate. Poison gas releases and i cannot open the door at the other side.

I tried everything so far. But it just won't open. Can someone help me out with this?

There's 3 hidden buttons you have to press once trapped. I think you take damage no matter what, but everyone should survive.

Hint:

There's 3 switches, hit the one farthest away from your destination first

If I can remember correctly... after triggering the trap, go south, look right and there's a hidden switch (high), then look back straight ahead, go all the way to the door and there's a hidden switch on each side there.

Poison triggers every time you step on the plate in the middle, I'm not 100% on what the door opening is based on (combination or speed, tho I can now open the doors within the space of one poison cloud)

If you wait for the poison to disperse you can then sleep to regain hp.

Give a shout if you still have trouble and I can tell you what works for me.

I think you have to push all three buttons before the gas disperses? Or you can do it in two steps?

The Poison Shield helps hugely here.

I'm stuck on this in 1.14. I press the button on the south end, then go to the north and press the two buttons there and nothing happens.

EDIT: strange, I reloaded and it worked the first time.
