Faith leap trial is impossible now

[Jardenon]

they made the floors truly invisible, and you can't cheese it. I hate this trial. I follow the map and the floor is still wrong

[Leslian Lexter]

Get a scroll of fly

[Maxx_Crowley]

What, no fly or teleport options now?

If you do it the intended way, it's no different now than it was pre-patch. It's just a memory puzzle, the area is designed to only show you the proper path if you look at it with the camera behind the lit-up alter where you gave the blood sacrifice.

Admittedly it is the most challenging of the trials, to be fair.

No, I used to be able to see the floor. Now they made the floor truly invisible, and I can't cheese it with fly or teleport items. and on top of everything else, I follow the map, and still fail.

Use summons before beginning the trial. Mephits works well. Put them at key "turns" in the pattern, and then use them as a guide.

unless they changed it recently (they may have) you can just click the corner of the end platform with the gem and your character will auto-path to it. If they took that out then that sucks because that trick is only thing that makes this trial bearable at all without spending resources like fly scrolls

its bad... really bad... Like i love Larian games and i play alot of CRPG's but this puzzle was atrocious. Since no viable way to see the path... if you try to teleport, or fly past it it counts as a failure. If you try to jump past it it counts as a failure. If you toss worthless items on the path in front of you it warps the item away so you can't use it. Unfortunately there is no grid or anything to tell where your actually standing, no way to guess where your going at all so its purely a save scum mess of a puzzle.

I did not and do not like this... should have been a trick to this like casting daylight or, something to see the path. Or putting out the torches to make the path light up. But as it is now this is purely a guessing game... i didn't like it and i consider this to be one of the FEW times in any CRPG that i was visibly annoyed and angry trying to do a puzzle.

I say this with as much malice as i can have for a game mechanic--- ♥♥♥♥,this puzzle... and who ever thought it was a good idea.

It was my least favorite redo on repeat playthroughs. Using Summons to mark the way works best.

Max gamma doesn't work anymore?

I just did it. It is fine.

All you have to do is go into Tactical mode '0' for overhead view. Then just navigate the floor based on the map at the start. Use the large platforms as reference points for turns and distances. Slide back to the map for refresh, then back to the character. Did it first try. Easy.

No. That does not work anymore.

I have a simple trick to this trial:
TORCH

No, not a light spell, not Daylight. Use a literal torch and stare into the ambient radiance that the torch puts out. If you hadn't messed with your brightness settings (computer and/or game) you can see the pitch black squares that make up the path to the orb in the general light radius of the torch.

I don't know why a mundane torch beats magical darkness in the unholy temple of Shar, but it does.

I found it pretty fun, I like trying to calculate where my position on the map is to where I am

[Lil Grandpa]

I just used minor illusion.

[robilar5500]

I just used the jump potion.
