Why can't a quasit pull a lever?

[craig234]

Shovel ca't pull a lever. If I right click the lever is has "Use (Shovel)" grayed out.

I need to use a mage hand?

I already see mention of 'use the familiar to pull an item to a new location' that don't seem to be an option in game, now no lever...

Maybe Shovel is too short to reach the lever? However, you can always activate levers by shooting them.

Did you try making the quasit attack the lever?

[craig234]

I didn't try attack. Shooting works if in range.

Yeah, it's an interesting story, really...
There was this strange clockwork soul sorcerer...I think his name was something with gold.....goldbug? nah, Goldberg was it....well he was known for building weird contraptions that did all kind of weird things...
Well, however over the course of decades, he build the most complex breakfast egg contraption...it was a real masterwork and the crownjewel of his life...
but something went wrong...nobody is really sure what. However it brought the nine hells supply of quasits to almost zero.
So to ensure future would have quasits to summon, and more importantly the lords of the nine hells wouldn't run out of punching bags, they managed after great efforts to modify future versions of the summoning contract in a way that prohibits the use of levers when summoning quasits.
