Icewind Dale II Hints
How do I open the locked doors past the huge boulder?
1 of 9: Have you tried your rogue?
2 of 9: He'll discover that the door is locked with a you-must-get-the-key lock.
3 of 9: So explore the large cave section of the lair that's to the east.
4 of 9: Down a small passage that's just a bit east of the easily removed boulder, there's a very-hard-to-see door.
5 of 9: Go through the door and kill all the trolls (and raid their trapped stash to the SW).
6 of 9: Heading east, you'll encounter several ochre jellies and a powerful shambler.
7 of 9: NOTE: Ochre jellies can divide, so quickly hit them with fire-based magic attacks.
8 of 9: After you kill the shambler and get the artifact dagger off of him, head east to find a mound of rubble with a corpse past it.
9 of 9: The corpse has the key you need, so take it and go open the locked doors. (They lead to the lair's duergar area.)
