Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Enhanced Edition Noxious Bulbs near Immaculate Cathedral

In the original version of the game, the path to the Immaculate Cathedral (near Sacred Stone) was heavily trapped.

In the EE, the traps are gone; instead, you face a lot of Noxious Bulbs and a series of elemental surfaces.

You can get by these reasonably easily using the teleporter stones and some elemental immunity spells, but I suspect that there must be a different way, too. I haven't been able to figure it out, though.

For example, I have no idea what the bulbs actually do. They don't attack me. If you take them out - by using arrows, say, which takes just about forever - nothing seems to happen; the elemental surfaces still remain.

What am I missing? Does anyone know?

(P.S. There are two levers that switch off the elemental fields once you've already gone through them, but that's not what I mean.)
