Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark Hints
How can I open the door to the central east room with Gloignar?
1 of 6: Have you tried bashing it?
2 of 6: Unfortunately, it's rigged with an "eternal trap" which will keep going off every time you hit it. Also, the door is invulnerable to all weapons.
3 of 6: Fortunately, this is another "state-of-the-rat" door, as you can tell by noticing the rat that's standing next to it. (Or *was* standing next to it if you triggered the trap.)
4 of 6: Unfortunately, you have to be able to communicate with animals in order to get the rat to scurry through a tiny hole and open the door from the inside. That means only druids and rangers can use this solution.
5 of 6: Rogues with sufficiently high skill in disarming traps and picking locks may be able to open the door.
6 of 6: Other character classes will either have to forget about it or use a keg of alchemist's fire from the Lith My'athar Environs area to "glitch" their way through the door (see following link). The same sort of stunt could be pulled by detonating the golems' Power Source, but that would destroy all of the sentient golems and any chance of getting their help in the big chapter-end battle. It's better to use a keg if you're going to do it at all.
