I'm in what i believe is the Temple of The Sleeper, in the room with the elevator thingy you ride down to the flooded room with the two switches. From what i've been able to gather, this is the last leg of the temple where i'll encounter a Orc Shaman i can't kill.

The problem is, i can't find out how to lower the 4th pillar so i can climb up? i managed to climb up once, but i jumped down to kill a Templar that fell down trying to get to me, but now i can't get back up, lol.

Anyone have any ideas? :(

There's a switch on the wall by the elevator that allows you to ride it up (if I'm following where you are - not quite sure).

I know about that switch, but i'm in the area AFTER you ride the elevator UP. You know, where the 4 or 5 pillars coming outta the lava are? I can get up to like the 4th pillar, but the next one hasn't come down or i haven't found out how to make it come down so i can hop over to it.

Never did find how to lower those pillars, but i did find an alternate way up.

OK, makes more sense now. The cave path is what you ended up finding, right? I think the pillars can be climbed but most times I've tried, I've failed.

Yep, i found the cave path when frustrated, i backtracked. But the reason i asked about the pillars is because i saw someone climbing them lowered on a youtube vid :)

That is --- intriguing; I'm going to have to fish around a little bit and see how that is done.

Having watched that, I'm not sure anything can be done - he said something like, "hmm, they seem to have changed a bit". Perhaps the left switch underground does it. Anyway, the walkthroughs claim that the pillars can be climbed easily if you have acrobatics. I have never used that - doesn't seem worth it - so I don't know.

I didn't have Acrobatics either, oh well, no biggie, lol.
