Title: Thieves Guild zone below Palanthas
Post by: valko on May 30, 2015, 09:10:43 AM: I recently returned to the game and I've been keeping myself busy trying to puzzle through a few old zones and interesting quests. I've forgotten a whole lot since the late 90's!

Anyway, I've hit a wall trying to gain entry into the thieves guild below Palanthas. I managed to work my way through a bunch of the entryway puzzles, but now I'm racking my brain to recall the appropriate way to convince Murf, the hungry gully dwarf guard, to let me through the final door into the guild itself.

If anyone out there could give me a hint or a nudge in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it!

it's probably some thing really really super secret though

but it has to be something a gully dwarf can remember too...

Post by: valko on June 01, 2015, 11:12:05 PM: Yeah, so much detail. I think I've got everything but the safe figured out. Thought maybe Geoffrey's fast-decay dagger would be involved in unlocking it or hacking the desk apart. Secret compartment on the desk? Boggle.

Side note: Is there something going on in the high mage's room that I don't know about? There are a lot of descriptions in his room but nothing actionable that I've found.
