Arx Fatalis Hints
How can I repair the elevator?
1 of 6: Take a look at the elevator's lift mechanism. You'll see two wheels. What could be missing here?
2 of 6: The wheels are part of a pulley. You'll need a rope to repair the mechanism.
3 of 6: You can find a rope on this level.
4 of 6: Try searching the crates and barrels scattered around down here.
5 of 6: The rope is an area inhabited by spiders.
6 of 6: From the elevator room, go out into the passage. Follow the passage right, then left, through the spider webs and across the large room with spiders. You'll come to a smaller room with a corpse. Inspect the barrels here to find the rope, then use the rope on the elevator mechanism to repair it.
