Wizardry 8 Hints

How do I open the locked door near the Initiates' Baths?

  • 1 of 5: There are two ways to open this door. One is to use a key, but you probably have not found the proper key at this point. The second way is through the corridor leading to the Baths, just south of this door.
  • 2 of 5: When you first enter this building, you will notice a tremor pass through the floor, dislodging one of the beams supporting the ceiling. Obviously, the walls here are very unstable.
  • 3 of 5: Take a look at the wall just inside the entrance. You will notice a pathway of lava through which you can see inside the adjacent building. Perhaps if you could widen this opening a bit...
  • 4 of 5: Inspect the beam opposite the lava-filled passage. Clicking on this beam will cause it to collapse, allowing you to sneak through the crevice into the adjacent room.
  • 5 of 5: After you have explored the area behind the locked door, you may find a key which will unlock it, saving you from having to negotiate the lava every time you come this way. The key is inside a burning cage, through the northern portal.
