ACT 1, can't get out of the spider pit.

[EmperorVolo]

So I'm playing evil. Allied with the goblins. I can't pull the lever because of this and there doesn't appear to be a way out. I told the spider to eat the goblins. There doesn't appear to be a way out of the pit.

Anyone know wtf?

you can fast travel i believe, i dont think theres any danger zones in act 1. or you could try to stealth and open the door that way so that the NPCs think it was "just the wind". alternatively, if you can shapeshift into a spider or have a druid you can climb up the spider webs and get out, then go around and open the gate from the other side to free your non-druid characters.


And if none of those options work for you, take the secret path down there and you'll end up in a secret tunnel. But because of the way this game works with a top down view, you'll be able to see through walls. Well, as it turns out, theres an old EA bug where you can actually jump from the secret tunnel, through the ceiling and end up in a prison cell guarded by an ogre. Heres the funny thing. If you manage to do this little exploit, you can walk out of your cell, and just leave, and when you do all your party is teleported to your location lol.

I suppose you could intentionally get yourself arrested, right? that would end up with you doing the exact same thing.

Also you could misty step out with one character and then use them to free your other characters.

But i still think the best option is to bring up your map and just fast travel, or click go to camp and then fast from there.

I can't seem to get arrested I keep repeatedly trying to use the lever or pick the lock but it just gives me warnings. I don't have access to any of those other options unfortunately. I'll fast travel. I can't seem to stealth up to the door to unlock it either man they just lock eyes with me and I never leave their sight likely since I allied with the goblins.

I did see the path to the Ogre seems like you should be able to jump up there but I can't seem to figure it out.

i was able to fast travel out of the spider pit but now none of my team want to follow me, any ideas on how i get them to follow me again?

[Bonesaw]

for those that come across this thread... you don't have to attack or lock pick the gate. You can shoot an arrow at the lever on the right side of the gate to release the spiders.

Mage hands are invisible and can open it as well

pressing g is a hotkey to group/ungroup your NPC companions, if they are regrouped when fast travelling only you will fast travel. You can also Right click their portraits on the left and click group/ungroup. you can also select the Companion using the left side portraits and open the map to click the fast travel to bring them to your character to group them back up. if their outside a certain range they won't come running to you even when grouped.

The only way to fix this is to fast travel.
If you're in combat, low health, there is a spider cave off the main first room, go there, it'll put you out of combat, so you can ft out.

Guards prevent it. It just goes straight into dialog. Same with Mage Hands. Haven't tried the arrow yet.

if guards are preventing it, try hitting Shift + C to put your entire party into stealth and then try with mage hands again. for w/e reason if you are not stealth and do something "illegal" even if no guards / npcs are looking at you, they will still 180 spin on you and stop you, unlesss you are "hiding" which is bound to the C key.

For anyone else reading this you can fast travel via the map on the right side even if you don't see waypoints.

I got stuck with my bard there and the rest of the group was outside. I started performing a song with her and the goblins came inside. I slipped through the gate when they opened it :D
