Ultima IX: Ascension Hints
Mage Shield
1 of 6: Search the houses in Moonglow to find this shield, which blocks a small amount of magical attacks. Unfortunately you will not keep it long. (You must give it to Batista to receive the Writ of Honesty.)
2 of 6: Go to Mariah's house and look for a room with a trap door. (Before you talk with Batista, this room is blocked by an energy shield.)
3 of 6: Open the trap door and step on the teleporter to be transferred to the basement storeroom. You can see the Mage Shield, which is blocked by two layers of energy.
4 of 6: Barrels block two hidden doors.
5 of 6: Move the barrels (breaking them if necessary) to get to the doors.
6 of 6: In both of the rooms, move a barrel on top of a pressure plate to remove the energy fields. (If you spared Mariah's life in the Dungeon Deceit, you will meet her here.)
