Aura: Fate of the Ages Hints
How do I activate the lift in Armagast's room?
1 of 16: Once you've spoken with Armagast, the control panel next to the alcove will become active. It is helpful to look over the controls, to gain one clue as to how to set them.
2 of 16: Before you can set the controls, you will need more information from elsewhere -- but all the information you need is within this room.
3 of 16: Have you experimented with the machine to the left of Armagast's desk?
4 of 16: Sliding the little buttons causes various wires to slide out, each with a different shape at the end.
5 of 16: Some of these shapes should look familiar.
6 of 16: If not, look around the room more...
7 of 16: ...especially at the ground of the small alcove.
8 of 16: Now, back to the control panel to the left of Armagast's desk. Did you try the button in the center of the control panel?
9 of 16: Pressing the button rotates the image behind the wire shapes.
10 of 16: As an aid, to help you remember the symbols from the floor, you can rotate the image until it matches the floor symbols.
11 of 16: If you had not yet rotated the cube, the button should need to be pressed two times to find the correct image.
12 of 16: Using the background symbols as your guide, find the four shapes that match the shapes pictured on the floor.
13 of 16: As you find each correct symbol, leave it so that it remains visible. Once set, study the control panel a moment to think about how this control panel could help you set the controls for the lift.
14 of 16: Notice there are four slider switches here...
15 of 16: ...and four slider switches on the wall next to the alcove.
16 of 16: Note the setting of the four slider switches and enter those settings onto the panel outside of the alcove.
