Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) General Damn Plague Quest Problem

I am trying to solve the plague quest and have completed most of what is needed but seem unable to enter Dr.Elraths House a secong time. I found the key and entered his house then he says, He is busy and leave which uses the key i found. But then i cannot find him again and cannot enter his house. What have i done wrong? Is there some special way to enter his house twice? I have looked for a walkthrough and only found one which says that he cant remember how he entered the house the first time damn it .Help PLEASE <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />

Either pick the lock or find the key thst is hidden by the side of the house. Either is good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

normaly you should be able to enter his house the first time WITHOUT any key. You chat about the plauge... and he leaves. Then you should be able to enter the house with the key (or lockpick lvl 2 i think). And use the lanterns as keys for the doors inside.

these are the sequense for the lanterns

I guess my warrior will have to learn the lock pick ability then ...tnx
This game is unusual in that regard..i mean that you have to learn multiple skills seeing that your character is alone. I am used to games like Baldurs Gate where you have other characters who can take care of those annoying problems for you

Thanks for your help. I will have to re-think my game plan. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

You'll need lockpick anyway. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
A multiple skilled char. can be handy.
Have fun. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

That was my problem. I couldnt enter the door first off without the key. Maybe i missed talking to someone which would have triggered the door to be unlocked when i went to visit the doctor. Anyway thatnks i will try and see what happens. This game is a lot better than i could have hoped so fay

maybe talking to the commander at the barracks triggered this?

oh... Not sure what will trigger it. Try talking to the guards at the gate of the quarantied area.
Also the healers in the inn mention they're working together with the doc. But I think it's the guards that trigger it. I don't remember exactly, but I think there's even a screen where you see the doc. leave when you talk to the guards.
You don't need (aren't supposed to) lockpick the first time.
The second time you can use the key.

Watching the cutscene in front of the poor quarters (Elrath leaves) and talking to the guard there = triggers Elraths open house.

Going to his house with out this trigger scene = door locked (lockpick or the key nearby)

Talking to the barman in the Blue Boar Inn about certain barrels <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> gives the clue where E. lives = door is locked.

So, getting into E.'s house: the best way is watching this cutscene and talking to the guard.

Warning:
You can enter his house with lockpick as often as necessary as long as you didn't have the final cutscene with E. in his house = triggered by taking the letter out of his cellar. After this cutscene no reenter possible anymore.

Thankx for clearing that up.
I knew I still remembered something about <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />.
Although time is catching up on me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

when i did that quest..... i kinda used the teleporter stones to make it easier.... lol.... i couldn't be bothered to figure out the sequence <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I never actually thought of that for a method to get in and out....hmmmmmmm...very clever <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
