Okay, I just did Barrows for the first time, even got Karil in the tunnel - worst case scenario, and it was no problem. Killing the brothers is not an issue for me.

 

 

 

But, after killing Karil I ran around for AGES. The doors kept changing, etc, I finally got a puzzle and before I could reclick it and solve it was gone, so I ran around for like 10 more minutes.

 

 

 

Anyway, I know the tunnels are supposed to be confusing, but are there any tricks or tips to avoid wasting time running around lost?

that should help you

Do the rooms change or just the doors lock in different places?

 

 

 

I thought that the rooms were moving, because when I clicked a door a puzzle popped up, I clicked again and I couldn't get it.

 

 

 

I also got stuck in a room with 4 locked doors at one point. <_<

 

 

 

At the time I assumed the room itself had moved, but now that I think about it, maybe it just was locked, and I should have waited for it to unlock. #-o

If you get your puzzle wrong, the door you need will change to one of the others. There's a trick to it though, if you go to any of the four doors, and get up close and tilt your view angle down so you can look around, you will be able to see all three other doors through the chest room. The one that you need will have additional right-click options on it, so right click the doors until you locate the one you want. Then you have a mental picture of where you need to go - using the map above to quide you. Keep your map pointing north when moving though, otherwise you'll get lost.

By "gone" are you sure a monster wasn't hitting you and kicking you out of the "puzzle" screen?

That's what happened, but when I reclicked it it was a door you could only examine, it had moved. :D

I've done well over 300 barrows runs and I've never had the door just "move".

Maybe I accidently clicked it, I'm not sure.

 

 

 

Once I get more used to it I'm sure it won't be so confusing. Thanks.

It does take a few runs to really get the feel of the place. I spent my first 20 or so runs just scrambling about hoping not to die.
