Arx Fatalis Hints
How do I get out of here?
1 of 6: After opening Poxsellis' tomb, the gate leading to the exit from this level will close, leaving you trapped inside. Don't despair; there is a secret path leading out of this area.
2 of 6: Remember the Temple of Illusion? Something similar is going on here.
3 of 6: The Reveal spell will not help you here. Poxsellis could have told you the secret...
4 of 6: Inside the sarcophagus, you'll find the Helm of Poxsellis, which has the special ability to "Dispel Illusion".
5 of 6: Equip the helm and an arrow will appear on the floor in Poxsellis' tomb. Walk directly to this arrow, and another will appear a little further down the corridor. Keep following the arrows until you arrive back at the gate, which should now be open.
6 of 6: Note that wearing the Helm of Poxsellis will allow you to see other secrets normally only visible when the Reveal spell is cast.
