Help with Hexatt's Final Quest

in General Discussion (Spoiler Warning!)
I am in the tomb for Hexatt's Lich quest in Throne of Bhaal, I faced off against Hexatt's "old friend" and then she dissapeared, now I have no idea where to go from here, so True Sight or Oracle Spells reveal her location, and there appears to be so way to reach the rest of the Tomb.
Help, with minimal spoilers if possible.

    Oh that tomb sucks. There is a secret door to the west, IIRC, but is damn annoying to find. You can google for more detailed answers.
    Also I had no end to frustration with other puzzles and the lich itself in that tomb. Seems Hexxat's quests were rushed a bit.

    Yes, @DJ_Sweatz_2013, as @lunar says, there's a secret door to the west (it's at the bottom left corner of the revealed area), but revealing that particular door with Find Traps seems to be significantly slower than most other hidden doors. Just stand in that corner for a couple of rounds with Find Traps active, and it'll become visible.

    Ok I'm keeping this one open for future help, this seems like it's going to be a long quest.
  • GallowglassGallowglass Member Posts: 3,356
    Ummm ... maybe you need a high Find Traps to reveal the door, perhaps a full 100% ability? If your Thief is falling short on innate Find Traps, you may need to use a spell or potion.

    It's a longer quest than any single one of Hexxat's three SoA quest-segments, but not as long as all three SoA segments together. (I'm actually in the middle of doing it right now, between posting comments on here, but I have the advantage of having done it before.)

    Found the door, however, now I am stuck in the door maze. I have killed Phreya (THANK GOD, I HATED HER) and the fake lich (or one of them anyway, as he apparently has extensive knowledge of Simulacrums) but now I cannot figure out the right combination of doors to open and close.

    My Issue seems to be bugs involving Hexatt however. I first had one with Minsc, which was solved by removing him from the party and adding him back again. But now I have Hexatt and Neera talking in infinite loops, I can always remove and readd Hexatt, but removing Neera would cancel the romance. I need a fix for this.
    I call upon he who helped me with my last major bug: @elminster how can I fix this?

    Sorry I'm not that familiar enough with her with her questline to be much help here (I haven't played it since probably pre-release).

    That loop thing has literally happened to me every time I played with Hexxat. At some point some sort of dialog just seems to bug out and keep on giving the same lines over and over no matter where you are and what you do. I just didn't bother and abandoned the game, and H-girl.

    To be honest she's too much work for me anyway, what with the whole daylight shenanigans and stuff.

    @elminster Well, thanks anyway. It was worth a shot
  • lunarlunar Member Posts: 3,460
    Oh yes after killing the fake lich, a new door should open just south of the fake lich room. But I had Hexxat stuck on an infinite loop with the dialogue after killing the fake lich. She initiates the same dialogue over and over. And can't take any other order for long. Ugh.
    Like I said, definitely needs a proper patch, the quest is cool but needs fixing. Seems rushed.
  • GallowglassGallowglass Member Posts: 3,356
    Hmmm, yes, Hexxat's ToB quest is rather fragile and easily bugs out.

    One tip: when you meet Phreya and (what turns out to be) the simulacrum of Korkorran, let them say their dialogue before you kill them. Otherwise both a dialogue-loop and a jammed door are very likely.

    @DJ_Sweatz_2013 - the final door should open automatically if the fight with Phreya and fake-Korkorran has completed correctly, you shouldn't need to do anything with the door-puzzle to open it. If the final door has failed to open, then you've hit one of the bugs. Re-load to just before the fight, and try it again.

    Note: the romances with the new EE NPCs don't break if you remove the NPC, so it should be safe to experiment with removing Neera to see if that will fix your dialogue-loop. (Actually, even with the pre-EE romances, it was only Jaheira's romance which would instantly break if you removed her - Aerie and Viconia and Anomen could all be removed briefly without breaking, it was only if you left them out for a while (three days?) that their romances would break.)
