    I`m on the top level, trying to go down. I`ve:
    Helped the archavist.
    Given the lich his slippers.
    Gotten all the notes about the place.
    Done the ritual.
    Killed all the statues.

    And yet, when I try to use the portal, it says "The statues defending the portal are somehow preventing you from using it".
    I figured that could mean the two Guardian Golems, but I try Ctrl-Ying them to no avail.

    What should I do ?? Is there a flag I can change that will let me down ??

    EDIT: I have the Official Patch and Baldurdash Fixpack installed.

    [​IMG] There was a VERY recent post about this topic. It basically concluded that some statues were hiding from you somehow. Use tracking ability of the ranger to find it. Or if you don't have a ranger, then check every nook and cranny to ensure one of those feisty statues isn't trying to worm its way out of your wrath.

    Actually i noticed this problem myself after killing ALL the statues. It turned out to be the order i executed everything in. Perhaps you did one step too early at one point, perhaps you should try doing everything in order again.

    Level 1 of Watcher's Keep is pretty easy. I would start over from a saved game - before Watcher's Keep.

    Nothing hiding anywhere :(
    I`ve managed to get down to the second level with the Console though- I Moved to the area. :)

    Still I wonder just why this happened... and I don`t have any saves from before the Keep. :wail:

    [​IMG] Reinstall the official Throne of Bhaal patch. The bug you encountered is specificially listed as one that is fixed.
    The patch is available at Patch version 26498

    I hope this helps.
