Ineluctable Prison - entrance location??

[Fluff]

Where is it? Can't enter it, Act 5. There are 3 closed portals to it at world map and the Prison location. But i can't enter the Prison location.

Nevermind. Today i can enter it, yesterday i could not, wtf.

there are 3 closed entrances and one open one. You need to find the latter,

After spending a lot longer than I'd like to admit to figure this out, after a certain amount of time, the open portal will swap to the location of one of the closed portals. you just have to reach the open one before that happens. just did it myself seconds ago.

How much time to the gates to change? And what is the best strategy? Go and run to each other gates and hope it will open? or camp at one location and skip time until the changes make that location the correct one?
And when people recomend to do this before or after IZ?

i did it before Iz, but just so you know, for the final fight in the prison, it's VERY hard, even on normal.

I played a sorcerer lich with all 4 elder elementals, the zombie dragon and 4 waves of my summoned skeletons (so like 20 skeletons total i think?) along with a bunch of aoe buffs on my party + my summons, and 2 of my companions still were at death's door. So if you aren't properly prepared, just be ready for a hard fight.

You can just pass time on the map until the portal you're nearest opens. I do that.

The fight in the prison varies. With a Legend melee I stomped on him hard and fast. I imagine that casters or rogues will have a hard time. Although a caster with the master rod and hellfire rays should not have that much trouble.

As a martial Lich it was really fast, but since you basically get 6 turns of invurnelability (death of elements turns damage to negative energy wich you are immune), you can tank him even as a caster.
