There is a sliding bar gate in Avanzhnzel that I can't figure out how to open. Can anyone help me?

There's been numerous threads on this one. Nope.. I don't think anyone has found a way to open it yet.

I think that's the one you just have to do in stages. Go in, open whatever you can open, look around carefully and see what opened and what closed. Then you go into the next area and open something and so on. There is some doubling back but you'll reach the end by paying close attention and opening things. Good luck. I hope that's the puzzle I'm thinking of. :tes:

I read UESP entry more carefully:

under bugs it says:

Just after the unreachable spider and before the flashback there is what appears to be a spike style entry into the pipe section where the spider is. This entry is non-functional and cannot be opened.

I'm going to have to look for that next time I go in there. I don't remember that one. There might be two gold coins behind the gate. :tes:
