    you know when you meet with sarevok when he is being crowned as the grnad duke of Baldurs gate? if you go back to that building you can go upstairs and there is a set of magical armour and a bastard sword+1, but if you go downstairs then you get a really cool fmv and there is a treasure chest, my problem is that i can open the chest, i got my thief up to 165% lock picking but it still wont work, i even used 3knock spells but they dont work either. how do i open this chest + about 100 others that wont open?

    help will be greatly appreciated, also i have never seen a walkthrough mention the fact that you can go down into the cellar! have i just deiscpvered something new about the biggest RPG in history?

    As far as I can remember, there is no way to open those chests.
    And as for going down... I don't remember there being any way down, but hey, it's been a few years so I could be wrong.
    But I quite seriously doubt it that you would be the only one to find them.

    How the hell did you manage to get there anyway? Belt teleports you to the Thieves' Guild maze after you kill the doppelgangers and you aren't supposed to be able to get back into the palace after that.

    two ways- 1.tell him that there has been enough bloodshed for this night and then he'll just tell you that hes gone to the thieves guild .
    2.when he teleports you to the guild then just walk out the door!

    Second reason seems logical...

    note: i've never been able to save the female grand duke, only the male one.

    Protecting those two was the only time I used the protect person option in the game...

    Hooray! A topic on which my incompetence allows me to talk. If the dukes die Angelo and a bunch of Flaming fist turn up to kill you. They managed to kill me, and the next time I kept the dukes alive.
