the Archmage Warhammer is located inside a chest inside Stone's Fortress Inner Passage it is set at the foot of a statue of Danien WARNING: as soon as u open the chest a trap is set off that kills u istantly the way i got around this is to stand to the left or right of the chest and open it as soon as you open it and taken what you want jump or roll back the way you came DO NOT JUMP STRAIGHT DOWN THE PATH STICK TO THE SIDES AS THE TRAP WILL EXPLODE ON CONTACT WITH CHEST AND IT CONTINUES TO FIRE.

I cant find scorpion sword. I have done grave robbers quest, pulled 3 levers, 2 platforms appeared but i dont know what to do next.

I could not find the Viper Gloves. I mindread and then looked for secret button at desk. Problem is, I could not see a single desk, there are only chests and tables and little tables. I scoured around all of them several times.
I then was able to open the secret room, which I thought was the door in the floor, without problems and went downstairs. In none of the chests there were the gloves.

Damn archmage set is incomplete for me bacause I missed necklace and warhammer !! CRAP! Where was that warhammer..........about necklace I understood already

I've manage to find all parts from 3 set of amours except 2 parts which is:-

Viper Belt: is looted off of General Luxurious
problem : where is this Generel Luxurious ?

Viper helm: appears in a jewel box that materializes after arranging the paintings in the top room of the Phoenix Inn in the right order, 1st painting move up once, 2nd do not move, 3rd painting move up 3 times.
problem : cant find key to open top room of Phoenix Inn.

any advise? thx..

jump up and onto the platforms, and there should be 2 sets of 2 white pillars with beams going between them. the chest should be on the far beam. you have to use the platforms to get up there then jump over to the chest. not sure if it needed a key, but if it does, it's inside that cave.

hope that helps

Can't find the archmage necklace! Where is that key?

Do the levers need to be pulled in a particular order?

I've tried a number of combinations and the platforms still do not show up.

I'm still waiting on the North American Xbox release of DKS, but in D2:ED the 3 levers did not have to be activated in any particular order.

Did you try leaving the lost tomb, and maybe the fjords, and then returning?

Thanks for the tips Raze.

Unfortunately, that approach did not work.

What did work however, (in my particular instance), was to reload an earlier save and play through, (yet again).

Thankfully I save regularly and keep old saves as a backup and didn't have to go back too far.

What is annoying though with this game, is that it seems to be an increasingly common 'workaround', and detracts from the enjoyment of playing.

Shame as DKS would otherwise be the best Fantasy RPG I've played in recent times.

What are "Bracers"? I don't find a word trying to translate it !

Arm-guards, i.e. the 'metal gloves' part of any given armour.

Edit: 'gauntlets' would be a better word actually.

Thanks Macbeth !
Bracers ... what's in a name ... ...
First I though it must be a mistake or something (Bracers > Bracelet )

I keep this in mind

You're welcome!

I can't find any keys to open this chest

I'm not that far yet in DKS, but if that is the chest I think it is, in the bottom cave, head straight ahead to the T intersection, and then check out the bottom ledge of the grate in the wall that you are facing.


Welcome to the forum.

I never found the Wild Dwellers Leggings, but now I read in the spoilertags a few posts back these Leggings would be in the last chest of the "Fire trial" in the Temple of Doom ... !
I opened all chests, but didn't find the Leggings ...

What do they mean with : "Fire Trial"?
If it is the chest where you must walk/swim in the water to bypass the hot rocks .. O no .. I tried to reach that last chest, but every time my hero got very very fast killed !!
so I was thinking such a chest is just for "decoration" and nothing more ??

If indeed this chest contain the Wild Dwellers Leggings (???) ... in that case I better try to find all the items of the hunter Armour Set (for example).

So, is it really that chest standing on the hot rocks in the Temple of Doom that contains the Leggings of Wild Dwellers Armour Set ???

Yeah, that last chest (in the fire area, near that superfluous bridge at the end of the river) contains the Wild Dweller Leggings. To get it, you can drink a potion or cast Healing (if you have it), then hope the regeneraton outpaces the fire damage.

Also, jumping into the river instantly removes the fire status, so that's a last ditch effort.

There are two other chests in that fire area of the Temple of Doom, but they contain nothing special, and are MUCH harder to reach without dying.
