Wizardry 8 Hints
What do I do with the pressure plate in Upper Mt Gigas?
1 of 5: Notice that the panel in the ground seems to sink as your party steps onto it. It doesn't appear to be a trap; it must be a switch.
2 of 5: The pressure plate slides back up after you step off of it. Maybe you can figure out a way to keep it down.
3 of 5: Place an item from your inventory on the plate to weight it down. The actual weight of the item doesn't seem to matter: a single feather dart will do the trick.
4 of 5: Examine the corridor outside.
5 of 5: The pressure plate will open in a secret door in the corridor. Inside you will find a chest with some random items.
