Wizardry 8 Hints

What item is used in the cave with a hole in the ceiling?

  • 1 of 5: Looking up at the ceiling, you will see a hole leading to the room above. Do you have anything in your inventory which could help you climb through the hole? 
  • 2 of 5: You'll need to use the Hook&Line to ascend through the hole.
  • 3 of 5: The Hook&Line can be found in the Sea Caves.
  • 4 of 5: Look for it among a pile of treasure.
  • 5 of 5: Go back to the beach, to the cave which leads to Bayjin Shallows. Enter the next cave south of here, until you reach a small pool to the east. Among the treasure strewn about this pool, you'll find the Hook&Line. Use this at the hole in the ceiling, then climb up the rope into the chamber above.
