Lonely barrow basement and room behind golems

[Xangulus]

cant seem to find away to open ether of these rooms anyone find away

[Dezzter]

use elemental cantrips to hit the pillars, the one already deactivated is fire, then going clockwise its electricity, ice and finally acid for the one closest to entrance to the room. Make sure you use cantrips, not only does it not use up your prepared spells, but prepared spells don't actually set off the pillars for some reason even though they still match element.

The basement fires will light up when you defeat certain monsters as far as I know, after all are lit up you go to your capital and find a Key in a well, since your capital is where 2 rivers fall into a lake.

There is a quest for it later on. For the beginning you just have to know, that you can open the the door behind the golems with elementary spells. I did not need scrolls, i could do it all out of the basic unlimited magic spells i have. The moment a spell works, the magic waves arund the pillars vanish. So, the one pillar without the magic waves does not need magic, as it is already deactivated.

Not sorry at all for going east instead of west in the beginnng of Chapter 2. Lonely barrow was such fun.

[Ichthyic]

weird. my main character's cantrips did not work to trigger the pillars... but another party member's sorc cantrips did. that's concerning,

[PhocasByz]

you need ENERGY cantrip
one pillar was burned by fire
the 3 others need cold / acid / electricity

[Ichthyic]

yeah... I know that. my main is a sorc.

How do you activate the mysterious columns? I have tried cantrips, but the game tells me "that is not how it works"? I simply cannot target the mysterious columns with the cantrips. Ordinary AOE spells have no effect!!? i have also tried bombs to no effect.
I'm at a loss as how to get this 'done'...
Please make a thorough walkthrough

You have to target the symbols on top of those columns with the right elemental cantrip.

Thank you for the quick reply. I have clicked and clicked on the "black sooth" on and around column with "Flare" (and the other elemantal ones) - around 50-100 times... :-(

One, which I'm guessing required fire, has already been activated. You need to use Jolt, Acid Splash and the frost cantrip on the other 3 that can be targeted. Each of these 3 require a specific one.
