Been trying to solve the pipes puzzle in Arx. Is there an easier way to solve this?

A *quest* might have several approaches to solve, but for puzzles, like this one, I'd like to think that there's only one specific procedure you need to go through, step by step, to solve it. There's no "other way".

EDIT: I'm talking about "legitimate ways" anyway.

Option 1 starts the "procedure", option 2 gives you the puzzle table to select and rotate tiles, option 3 resets the table, if I remember correctly. You need to look at the start points near you, and visualize paths for all three of them to reach the targets. Each end node also has a plate on them with the element they require in it.

If it bugs out for you, particularly the element on the far right, then you could take a trip to Egypt. It's only like a rock throw away.

It was one of the best puzzles in the whole game in my opinion. Appreciated the overall design and idea. Still I couldn't help myself but laugh when Sebil, standing on top of the pipe opening, bled so much blood that it went down the pipe and exited on the other side. So much blood came out of that skinny body that it then poured into a canal, some metres of length.

And we couldn't just fill a bucket from those pools upstairs where that god-awful statue is. ^_^
