Neverwinter Nights Hints

How do I get down to the Pits area?

  • 1 of 6: The doors you need to go through are in the center on the east side of the Containment Level.
  • 2 of 6: However, you have to get past a locked door before you can get to them.
  • 3 of 6: You can try bashing the locked door. A strong barbarian with a good two-handed axe could probably hack it. Also, anyone can bash it if they have a Marrok-forged weapon that does bonus elemental damage (see link below).
  • 4 of 6: If you can't bash the door or pick-lock it, you'll have to pull the big lever in the middle of the central room of this level.
  • 5 of 6: Unfortunately, that room is occupied by lots of escaped convicts and a level 5 sorcerer.
  • 6 of 6: Once you open the locked door one way or another, take either door down to get to the Pits.
