im in the temple of the spider i just killed 3 orcs in a huge room, i looked all over the room i see a level behind a broken pillar but i cant get to it. how can i break or move this pillar?

3 Orcs, that must be the rounded room then. You want to break a already broken pillar? Why?Don't you hear Leanna's suggestion, or else Xana inside you???
I suppose you came there by cheating... that's the way to ruin the game for yourself.

she doesn't say anything she just stands there. and its a huge broken pillar with writing on it that blocking the switch to open the gate to the next room. I dont quite understand your statement about cheating to get there, i just follow the path of the game.

Have you met the Pao Kai yet?
Are you sure the 3 Orcs are dead? Because if one is still breathing Leanna will not speak but wait. Have you approached Leanna? She is the one to move the pillar aside so you can use the switch to open the portcullis.

A question about your game version: if you have the DVD version, did you install the patches?
If you have the Steam version, your game is patched automatically. I ask this because the unpatched game can behave weirdly.

I am playing on the xbox, the event didnt activate, all the orcs are dead an she just stands there in the room, sux cause I have only one save an it right there. looks like I have to start over . Thanks for the help.
