The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
How can I lower this spear gate?
1 of 4: Look to the right of the spear gate to find four button pedestals on a raised bit of flooring.
2 of 4: Quicksave, then try using the buttons.
3 of 4: Two of them do nothing, one of them activates a flame trap, and the other one lowers the gate.
4 of 4: The one that lowers the gate is the second one from the right.
