Can't get inside Watcher's Keep

Rancour · #1 (**permalink**) 03-19-2009, 01:24 PM

Long story short,I have Valen in my party,she saw that cleric near the keep,he saw her,turned hostile,I got annoyed and whacked them all. It was not very wise,though, for now it is impossible to get inside the keep,even though I 've looted their corpses and took the vigil stone. That damn door won't open no matter what I do.
I'd appreciate any help with that problem of mine.

I've never attacked them so I really don't have a clue.
But question, are you at the main entrance on top of the tower or are you trying to get through the first sidedoor?

I am a the top and trying to open that huge ball-shaped door.

Maybe there is a way of getting those guys back through console?As far as I know I need his ID for that.But how do I get it?

You sure they won´t go hostile again or something, if you use the console to bring them back? Valen is still in your party. I would reload and chuck her out of the party before talking to the priests, and then pick her up after gaining access to the Keep.

Alternatively, you may use CLUEConsole to 'teleport' your party to any given location, possibly, no, probably to Watcher's Keep as well. I cannot recall the specifics of how to do this, exactly, but I am certain you can download the entire CLUEConsole command-list on Sorcerer's Place or Google, if all else fails.

Perhaps someone more experienced than I can expound upon this?

Hope it works out for you,

Thanks for the advice.I'll try it out.
And by the way, priests don't go hostile unless Valen is in their immediate vicinity. I would have kept her as far as possible from them but the problem was that after the Ritual you are teleported back to the Keep location. And the place where you land is right in front of the main entrance.And there was nothing I could do with that, neither I had a good savegame.

As a sidenote, the portal that teleports you to the 5th or final level (don't remember which exactly) stretches out a few pixels under the stone door. Hence, it's possible to simply avoid the first 4 annoying levels and go for the goodies on the 5th/final level alone.

Incredibly cheesy and unintented, but hey, you're playing with Valen.

Yeah, but alongside with Valen I have all the tactics challenges installed, and I think those two mods compensate each other, though I don't really care about such things as balance as long as I enjoy the game process.
Anyway, thanks for the advice, I think I'll just have to complete the keep beggining from the lowest stages(Killing Demogorgon) and then proceeding to the upper floors.I don't care much about the way I'll complete the challenge,since this is by no means the first time I play the game.
