Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems The door to the Necromancy of Thay Book is broken

Hi guys,

Haven't seen this anywhere else on the forums, so thought I would post it here. I am currently in the lab beneath the Apothecary, standing in front of the Rusted Iron Gate guarding the Necromancy of Thay book. Try as I might, I can find anyway to open the gate. I can't get it to open via standing on the narrow plate, I can't pick the lock and I cannot destroy the gate with either physical or magical attacks. If anyone can tell me if this is a bug, or if I am just doing something wrong, I would very much appreciate it!

Sounds lie bug to me ...
As far as u know it should be both lockpickable and destructible.

BUT there is a key.
On the other side of the room, near exit.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know about the key. Never needed it before.

you need a set of tools to unlock a door and the pressure plate is a trap so if you disarm it then thats that... of course the key is the best option

p.s, isn't it lighting the fire pits either side of the pressure plate that unlocks the door? its been a while

Tried that, no luck, and I had lots of Lockpicks on me, but it said it was impossible to lockpick that door. It also seems to be immune to all damage, as I said above.

You can use a Mage Hand or summon to shove the book to the door, then just pick it up from the other side.

Yes I noticed they considerably hardened this part.
It's true that it's not lockpickable, but if I remember, it was possible to damage it if we do a very high number of damage (like minimum 20).
I was not able to do that so I did a Misty step through the fence and it worked

Can you explain more how you did it ? which fence exactly are you saying ?
