[Help needed] Durlag's Tower level 4 - Grael is missing

Hello guys, im new to this game but i think i managed to progress. I was on my way to Naskel but i wanted to clear the locations on the map before progressing on main quest and i found myself into durlag's tower. I managed to reach level 4 but i am stuck. I suppose the thing to do is to answer 3 tricky questions (into that special room) in order to understand the story. Is it 3 indeed? I answered 2 of them, on in the beggining near the "well", and one in a room (seems like a storage room and has 2 statues that activate traps if you cross the line). I have cleared everything and i think ive explored 100% of the map. I used druids true sight skill to explore more of the area and there is a room with an npc in which i cant go. I also cannot go into the treasure room as the door says it requires a special wardstone which probably i dont have. Any tips?

Regards,
a noob

    Did you go into the rooms with the green acid? There is a room to the far west of that map I think where you get a key to the locked chest from Grael (I think his name is). There is another question area in the room with the beds that is initially lightning protected (the floor is trapped). There are questions from the statue head (obvious one). I think there is one more but it's not hard to find. This help at all?

    you dont need to fight him if you dont want. To unlock the next quiz, there is an area to the right of the green slime caverns (fairly need the entrance) There are a ton of hidden doors around, so keep an eye out.

    Well, like I said, I think you can technically get past the traps without his ward stone. A high level fighter should be able to tank the hp damage. Give them haste, and they might be able to dodge a few too.

    the problem is that the NPC is not there and i cant get the loot so i can open the treasure room door. what do i do ?

    I had the same problem here, grael didnt show up and i couldnt find the compass wardstone
    so i just used cheat to get the key

    (actually grael showed up to my exploring thief, but i fell back to gather the party before fighting and he just dissapered)
  • SedgeSedge Member Posts: 29
    what cheat? i want that too :P

    Or just teleport inside with cheat.
    ctrl+j , I believe.

    But you need to activate cheat console. Everything about cheats is written here:

    does anyone confirm that teleportation cheat code is working in baldurs gate enhanced edition ?
  • RafaelRafael Member Posts: 26
    CLUAConsole:CreateItem("MISC2k")
    just type that in the console and enter
    the item will be created at yours main character inventory

    Yes, the cheats work. Had to teleport passed a "Durlag's Tower bug" myself about an hour ago.

    Moved to BG1 bugs; title edited to reflect the actual bug.

    Could someone please reproduce this bug and write the specifics? I would then be able to add it to the devs' tracker.

    I successfuly completed Durlag's tower. just one question. Do i need to keep wardstones/keys/mobs hair (from top tower) etc etc. ?? is there a way to sell em on a high price? I also have a totem from an excavation and it is supposed to be really profitable but i cant find the correct buyer. Any tips?

    No one will buy it (for any appreciable amount of money), but if you take it and the broken armour you find in the Firewine ruins to the ghost of Ulcaster you can obtain a secret vampiric sword.

    The wardstones and such have no value or use outside of Durlag's Tower.

    Though I remember I could sell the wardstones in original BG1 (at Ulgoth's Beard Inn) while it is not possible in BG:EE

    If wardstones are made sellable, any left on the ground would also vanish.

    I'm not sure what's going on with Grael. As soon as I got to the 4th basement level, I teleported out to sell some things. When I got back to B4F, it was showing Grael taking 1 point of damage every round. Reloading the area doesn't seem to be resolving the issue. The only thing that's working is rolling back to the save before I talked to Islanne to teleport out of the tower.

    Is Grael absolutely essential to continue? I don't like hauling around or wasting crap equipment when I enter a new area.

    (Just noticed the heading. My problem is in BG:EE, not BG1. Please disregard.)

    @Lennis

    He gets in the acid and dies (happens to me every time) and the wardstone is on the ground.

    So after he dies and drops the compass wardstone if you do anything to make items on the ground disappear like leave the area, it is gone forever.

    A reaaaaaaaaaaaaal quick fix would be to make him immune to poison / acid or whatever it is.

    Grael is completely missing in my game, too (BG:EE Steam version). There are only 2 regular Greater Ghouls and a Crypt Crawler in the room where Grael is supposed to be.
