I think the mayor is in the bar or inn sitting at the table.

Tower Colony upstairs in Avernum 4
Warrior
Member # 7980

I have killed the demon upstairs in the Tower Colony, but their are areas up there I still can't access because of rock cave-ins. I can see a book behind a gate. I was thinking the area could be accessed from X's upstairs rooms with the doors that can't be picked, but that is just a guess on my part.

Does any one know how to access those areas?

Thanks

There is an area I can't find the route to in the area to Rentar's Keep. It's one level below and to the right side, but you can't get to it because of a gap.

Has anyone noticed it and been able to find the way there?

Thanks

Za-Khazi Run - Opal Citadel in Blades of Avernum

All the gates in the game that open with the wheel mechanism do not work. So I wasn't able to get the Opal of Melora which used that kind of opener. All the levers in the game worked.

Is it possible to fix with the game editor?

I found the hidden gate. The gates in the game will not open. In other words I don't get a request to turn the wheel. Not just here but throughout the game. It must be a glitz or something.

Za-Khazi Run - Opal Citadel in Blades of Avernum
Warrior
Member # 7980

When I first entered Koth's castle, I was stopped and asked by a statue if I had anything of value. I said yes, then entered the next room that was filled with lazers. Every monster I meet in there instantly attacks me. I don't remember any traps that were there to set off, but I had to kill the two giants (Efrits?) that were guarding the Hall of Statues. I had to time my way to it through the lazers of course to keep from getting zapped.

I can't speak to Koth. He says to step forward to speak to him, but then when I do, his monsters start moving toward me to attack and I can't use the "talk" icon on him.

I've looked and looked and can't find the secret room to open the gate to the northeast in the Opal Citadel to get the Melora Opal.

Also, is it actually possible to complete the game in "two weeks"? It seems impossible.

Also, does Koth the Dragon require all 3 special items to let you through his castle, because I had two of them and I was forced to fight and kill him anyway.

Thanks

3rd Scenario - Spiral Crypt in Blades of Avernum
Warrior
Member # 7980

I can't work the puzzle on the second floor. I can't find any runes that when you step on them they create colors, they always create snow which keeps you from using magic.

4 of the rooms have a crystal you can break, but they always return, and theirs a guy who has a key that always disappears after you defeat him.

Please help. The walkthrough describes locations as grid numbers which makes it all the more difficult.

Thank you

Magical Effects? in Blades of Avernum

I'm playing the 1st Scenario on the Demo.

Is there a list of Magical Effects and there icons for Blades of Avernum? One of my characters has one that's there all the time.

If I go to the healer will she be able to remove it. The icon is light grey, round and looks like a snowflake.

Thanks

CAN'T GET SPELLS IN AVERNUM 3 in Tech Support

I'm playing the Demo of Avernum 3, and my Mage spell skill is at Level 10, but when I bought Level 1 spells of Lighting Spray, Far Sight and Create Illusions, which only require Level 6 spell skill, they are not highlighted for use in the Info window or represented in the Cast Mage Spell window.

Is this because I'm using the demo, or some other problem?

At the Tower Colony upstairs in X's Tower are three locked doors. Is there any way to access them.

Also, upstairs where you fought the demon there is an area beyond the rocks that you can't access. Do X's rooms lead there?

There is an area in Rentar Ihrno's Keep that I can't find a route too. It's one level down and to the far right. You can see it is separated from the tunnel above it by a small dark rectangle representing a chasm. I've accessed every tunnel, but can't find any way to this area.

Would appreciate any help. Thanks

THANKS EVERYONE FOR HELP WITH THE MANGY WOLF.

Does anyone know how to cancel a spell, such as you click fire, but then you decide you want to use Smite instead during battle. I used to know, but I forgot.

Thank you again

Mangy Wolf and Stability Bauble in Avernum 4

Is there anyway I can help the sick wolf south of Fort Monastery? I've cast both a heal and cure spell on him, but it doesn't seem to help.

Then I bought some fish from the guy farther down and set them next to the wolf, but nothing happened.

Also, I have the Stability bauble, but I don't know what it does.

Thanks

Singleton in Avernum 4

I've been reading posts about playing A4 as a singleton. Does that mean all the abilities are given to one character, and the other three are just along for the ride?

If so, the other three will still level up and have skill points to use, won't they?

Not Enough Skill Points in Avernum 4
Warrior
Member # 7980
Profile #0
Hi,
I need help.

I'm near the end of the game, and I still don't have enough skill points along with armor, etc. for full protection or tool use to open any doors over 22. I saw one cabinet that had a 90! tool use requirement. How are these higher scores attainable when you have to spread your skill points among other necessary abilities?

Secondly, how does first aid work. Does having just one character buy skill points enough for everyone, or should each character buy first aid.

Third, does any merchant sell herbs, especially spiritual herbs?

Thanks

CAN'T TRANSLATE SCROLLS in Avernum 4

I've been to Khor's lair and found the translation book. When I went back to Lark and tell her I can translate them, she says, "Go ahead, I can't wait", but then nothing happens.
Do I need a higher level of Arcane Lore to translate the scrolls?
