I don't know if this is a bug, or just luck....

But I thought you'd need more intellect to solve than what I have.  I solved it on the first try.

You start working on the puzzle lock.
You think you have solved the puzzle lock, and wait expectantly!
However, a flash of insight allows you to complete the last twist.

yea all of mine solved it first try.  i think it's like many chance textblocks in this game, they just work everytime.

With 25 will you should have failed at least a couple of times, that's barely the minimum required...

I've been down there about 7ish times since the reset. It appears the door opens ALWAYS when you solve puzzle. I've been solving it with Myr, my witchie all but once. he opens it all the time. according to the textblock, he should have something like a 10-25% chance only. and it opens every time. I'm betting that 'testskill' isnt in...

Well it tests both intellect and wisdom so it could be that its not handling the two tests correctly and rather just passing on the first. I know there are some other posts about this too I'm a mergen them...
