The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I solve the lever puzzle?
1 of 9: In this puzzle, you'll need to figure out how to use the levers to open the spear gates so that you can continue onwards.
2 of 9: There's only one lever you can reach at first, so use it to see which spear gate it opens.
3 of 9: It's the one on the left (east), so go through it and use the next lever.
4 of 9: It opens the spear gate to the south and closes the one you just came through.
5 of 9: Use the newly accessible lever, then go back to the previous one and use it again so you can get back to where you started.
6 of 9: You can now use the lever that's south of the first one, followed by the one that's south of it.
7 of 9: Use the first of those two levers again so you can get back to the starting lever, then use the lever that's east of it again.
8 of 9: Go south from that lever to find that you can now access a large red valve wheel.
9 of 9: Use it to lower all of the spear gates at once, which allows you to move on past this area.
