Demmit....where the hell is it ?

Dragon's Eye is one messed up area. I'm on the level 3 - I've done the histachii brew - one for that scientist fella and I've got one prepped for my party.

While transformed into histachii one of my party members is supposed to enter one of the rooms which has a switch to lower the drawbridge..
Ahem yes. WHICH ROOM ? I've used the brew (man those histachii move slow ) and checked every locked door on level 3 ( 7 of those - 5 next to each other in a round room , 1 in the east and 1 in the south east). None of them opened.
Then I poured the wyvern poion into the clear water pool in the north (which I thought would open one of the "hydrualic" doors).
Again - none of the doors can be opened.

I've checked the upper level for anything that could be linked to the door problem. I even tried standing on the snake signs in the ziggurat near the lab.
Where is the infamous "room with the eye of Sseth" ? *sob*

there is sort of a temple room, iirc it's slightly north west from the center of tha map.

there will be an archway that will strike fear in any char who is not under the influence of the hist. brew.

Watch the language. That is certainly still a naughty word where I come from.

Okay - something is a miss.

I can't do anything on the 3rd level.
Here's the situation.

In the center of the map there is a round chamber with a statue of a snake eating a man - surrounded with 5 doors.
In the north there is an altar with 3 dead bodies (corpses+skulls).
Next to it there is a well with clear water (where you can drop one bottle of wyvern poison to taint the water - it is supposed to be a part of hydraulic system to open some doors).

West from the 5 door chamber there are 2 timer blockades.
In the south there is a lifted drawbridge.

South from the passage from the upper level (the place where you stand entering level 3 ) there are doors with tubes going into wall , scent of wyvern poison etc. - that's one of the hydraulic doors.
South east from the starting position there are doors that have "no obvious means of unlocking".

I have 4 bottles of wyvern poison and one special histachii brew.
After transforming one of my ppl I can't open any doors.
Tainting the water with poison wyvern didn't help either.

I've searched everywhere but there is no "archway that will strike fear".
As for quests - I've given the scientist his brew - he's still under transformation. After resting I talked to him but he had nothing relevant to say (I could only ask him about strange creatures here).

My questions are : how to open any of these doors , how to lower the drawbridge ("switch in the room with the eye of sseth" doesn't help much T_T ), when do I exactly use the hist. brew (do I need 6 of em ? ) , what's the use of the altar ?

Accurate help highly appreciated. ^_^

ok i'm going from memory here, bear with me.

1st you need to find the arch way...

if you start in the room w/ the five doors that you can't open (and they don't ever open imo)

and you get to the timer blockade in the west - you need to get past that, try resting for a day...

the archway room should be past that blockade and the passage will *ahem* snake to the north.

then you can drink the potion, flip the switch - this lowers the drawbridge.

over the drawbridge after more running around eventually you will find the fourth pool of fresh water, once all four have been poisioned the hydraulic door will open.

then things will get even more frustrating.

Status report.

Timer blockade has been breached - 16 hours of rest.
Facing light resistance found the dreaded archway. Used brew to pass through , shelf - button lowered the bridge.
Upcoming fight with iron golem and efreets.
Waiting for the annoying part to begin... ^_^

Thx for the help.
