Lucians Tomb pipe puzzle... FML!!!

[Justin_760]

And here I thought Id already seen the worst and most irritating quests in the game... *sigh*

Has anyone gotten past this abomination of a puzzle? Im starting to feel like the devs are just trolling us at this point. The interface of the puzzle is just the worst, makes it so much harder to do this. Does anyone have tips? Tricks? Any way to get through this at all would be appreciated.

Found another thread with no answers but someone mentioned its easy using the teleporter pyramids. Have no idea what he meant, but used them to get down to lower area, which didnt really do anything aside from giving a slightly better view of the whole thing.

Stuck on the same.. No idea wtf to do inn that room. Did you get the walls down or? I am just shooting the pipe in the middle. And were you able to open the tomb? - I Don't have high strength characters.

The general idea of a puzzle is actually pretty simple, you turn the corresponding squares and adjust the flow of things. The main problem is to make a blessed blood for the central fountain - cast rain of blood and bless it, on the drain in the main room, and you get all three to flow.

I thought it was a really good puzzle, not too hard but at the same time you had to give it SOME thought.

Use this picture to do the Blessed Fire and Blessed Water https://gyazo.com/3eef32d59335a3c723dc83272df1f448

Then, use a teleportation stone, throw it outside one of the barriers, teleport, when you are on the ledge outside, through the stone back inside the barrier where the alter is, Jump down using flight or teleport etc.

Use Rain of Blood or some sort of blood spell directly on the bowl for the Blessed Blood, then use your Bless (Source) spell on it and done.

Use the teleport stone to zap back up to the top.

Realistically, you can just Set fire, and Water and Blood to all 3 outside the barriers and bless them all If you have enough source.

Not sure if anyone's tried this out yet, but a really simple solution is to just hire a Polymorph specialized character, teach them transmute surface, and literally transmute the blessed blood, water, and fire right out of the giant pots and onto the empty bowls. Works like a flippin charm.
Addendum: I should note that this is best done by actually taking down the barriers, which is best done if you become Sworn to The One King since he'll just obliterate Lucian's Altar which negates the magical barriers.

You don't need any blood magic. You can stab one of your companions until the drain in front of the altar gets bloody, then just bless it.

I thought the puzzle is pretty simple, if you look at the goals most of them are L turns that lead into goals themselves, so it takes away most routes.

That should make things easy for ya OP.
Surround the f out of the grate on the ground with blood. Bless the blood.

All this teleporting crystal shennangans looks like way too much effort. As someone else said, most of the possible routes end up making a L and leading back into themself.
Once you get one of them lined up the rest just kinda jump out at you.
But there's a pic of it if you want it. There are actually a few ways you can turn the things and complete the paths.

Yeah it was very hard the first time I did it but on my second run through I knew where the things had to go its fire/water/blood

[Smerk]

Anyone else get a bioshock pipe hack feel?! 😎

[Diederick]

you need to put same to same and the plus looking one can take two also you need to supply the blood your self and i don't remeber but i think you need to bless the blood also.

These puzzles that don't give a single hint as to what the objective is, never mind how to obtain that objective, are bloody irritating. Come on, Larian. You can do better.
No, I'm not particularly good at logic games, but at least give me a sense of what I'm supposed to accomplish. It's like trying to play baseball without knowing what balls and strikes are.

[Gwumpy Fwog]

join the God King and say ♥♥♥♥ the puzzle lol, you'll find out why :)

Actually, you get hints for everything. Not Larian's fault you didn't listen to the person who built the riddles.

There's nothing hard about this puzzle because you can pan the camera with WASD and look at the puzzle while you're solving it. You can also see what's at the far end, mouse over it and see what it is.
