Socc Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 In the guide, when it tells you to point the light down it says have the mirror going east/west. It Didn't work for me like that, but it DID work when i put it north/south. ***Edit: I think the person who wrote the guide just put the north/south east/west for the wrong lights, because the 4th one ended up needing to be turned east/west So in conclusion 3rd door: Last light needs to be turned North/South 4th Door: Last light needs to be turned East/West 30 mins of failed attempts lol, if you want to spare someone else that pain change it :P Socc | 99 Magic | 95/99 Range | 99 Defence | 99 Hitpoints | 96/99 Summoning |Join SODB for some monster Slayin! | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the guide was accurate when I completed the quest earlier this year. I suppose someone else would have to take pictures of the wrong places?

ovorette Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I finally went back to complete this quest and In the guide, when it tells you to point the light down it says have the mirror going east/west. It Didn't work for me like that, but it DID work when i put it north/south. held true for me. Although, I would say "mirror" instead of "light" if you make the changes The_Socc_Masta suggests. See quote from his post: 3rd door: Last light needs to be turned North/South 4th Door: Last light needs to be turned East/West Sorry I was otherwize fighting for my life or I would have taken a few screen shots : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I fail to see how its wrong. First time you send light up or down it clearly says "To achieve this the mirror needs to have its base where the light enters and top on the opposite side. In this case west and east. Light travelling up can be noted by a beam above the pillar." Then for goping down we get "From here we want to send our light down. To do this arrange the mirror so its top is by the east and base is by the west markers." Which is clearly the inverse of what we did for upwards as the light beam is coming from the east. Though I would say whoever last editted this guide has moved a picture into between the third and 4th doors that has no place there, as it clearly depicts placing the red beam for the last door.

Though I would say whoever last editted this guide has moved a picture into between the third and 4th doors that has no place there, as it clearly depicts placing the red beam for the last door. The mirror interface has changed since the guide was originally written, apparently. There is no longer a top and bottom of the mirror. And because there is not a picture of the interface in the guide it is even more confusing. I only discovered the difference when I found a guide that showed a picture of the interface and saw immediately that it was different than what I was looking at while doing the quest. I am certainly not criticizing the guide author. Your instructions make perfect sense when looking at the old interface. ETA: Here is an image of the old interface When I have time I will go back to the temple and take a screen shot of the way it looks now. Edit 2: Screen shot image of new interface. Please note that this is not the pillar of either of the doors in question, so do not use this as an example of that. I just wanted to show what people are looking at in the context of the changes that have been suggested. NOW I'm finished :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Ahh if the interface has changed then it certainly wuldnt make sense lol Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socc Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Glad to Have helped the few of you that had trouble with this : and Paw_Claw, I wasn't trying to be mean or saying you were wrong or anything(I was just looking at the guide and noticed you wrote it haha). I was just stating that what I mentioned above was what worked for me after 30 minutes of failed attempts. It might have been a bit of a mix-up when posting it on Tip.it or someone on the crew was careless when they edited the guide. It also might have something to do with the interface change, who knows lol.

Serpent Eye Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Crew Note: Posting on behalf of a friend who PMd this correction to me. His username is Hunter360x. http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?page=light_temple_d3.htm# The next pillar along this corridor also needs a mirror, but it must point the light upwards. To achieve this the mirror needs to have its base where the light enters and top on the opposite side. In this case west and east. Light travelling up can be noted by a beam above the pillar. Using the ladder beside this pillar, head up one floor. Here, use a mirror on the pillar to send the beam west. The beam will pass through a pillar you cannot reach, this pillar has the useful effect of turning cyan to blue and yellow to red. Head back down the ladder and head south to reach the other stairs to the top floor. Once here cross to the north side using the double stairs, then head directly west through a narrow grey passage. Once through head north to find your now blue light beam. From here we want to send our light down. To do this arrange the mirror so its top is by the east and base is by the west markers. Head all the way down to the first floor and make your way to the north west corner again. Your beam should have opened a yellow door for you. Head through and rotate the fixed mirror to hit the other door. Raid the chest in here, then rotating the miror again, escape. Change to top by North and bottom by South.

ovorette Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Yes, this is a problem. I was so happy to see this thread http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=226&t=801730 because I had given up :wall: Someone who hasn't completed the quest yet needs to get some screen shots, I suppose.

SportsGuy Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm not sure how it has changed, but I know the directions were right, but confusing when I did this quest. Perhaps this previous discussion could help. You'll have to ignore my deleted images, but pokemama provides the edited versions...
