which would mean that we could activate it after we activated the lever so we can use the lock
but I couldn't find out how
and no, the gate stays open. It does not close after you enter the cave
Oh ok then it's possible but I indeed fail to see how you'd skip that lock
The first Rome fight is easier than expected - it just takes hours and you'll get an guaranteed hand cramp by pressing the buttons for Dogmatix and Obelix 15 minutes without stopping :D
And even though it is easier than I expected you can still die very easily
but it's not like you'd die a hundred time until you get it
I almost just made it first try for today
So when I had taken that picture all I had done was beat all the romans to clear the lock. Light the torch and ran out of the gate
All you have to do is not take the extended bridge at the top
And to skip that fight (would not be a thing in glitchless low%) all you have to do is 1st, after the slide run and pick up the torch, run back to the area you got to after the slide and then bounce on the circular roman shield formations and flybash all the way over to where you'd get to using the extendable bridge
There's really nothing to it
And again, that is an old strat that was used
How ever, the more I think about it the more I feel like the gate does close behind you as you exit it. But it didn't for me, might have had something to do with the fact that I had already blown up the gate at that point
Feel free to test it though
Though you can probably skip it even if you take the top way, just by sticking to the side
But let's say it's impossible to skip it... Like 100%... Then grabbing that would be part of low%
Because that would be as low as you can go ;)
