Opening secret doors

[Geekureuil]

I've food secret doors in den of thieves and lighthouse (yellow outlined gears).
But whatever the character I use to try and open it, they fail and just take damage.

How is the success/failure decided ?
Is a scout mandatory in a party ?

It's based on stats.

I can't figure out what stat in the lightouse either (with gears) Am at that one now..

Crack in wall = Strength. Magic Circle = Magic. Gears = Perception

Also trick = Cast regeneration on party before multi attempting. As long as you try different charachters regeneration will tick infinately allowing you to "retry" ad nauseum until you get it or break your mouse.

I had just found that finally on another post, but still, thanks! Finally got that secret open =D

Thanks a lot.
Then having at least one perception based char seems mandatory to open gears secret doors.

wow how did you find out about str, magic and perception based secrets? Wasn't at all obvious to me, but thanks for the heads up. I thought it was all perception

actually you dont need a perception based character, I dont have one and ive been able to open the all with the help of eagle eye spell, although it usually takes at least a few tries. Also keep giving the white barrels tot he same person
