Hello all I was curious since it took so long for us to find the hidden quest Tiniest cave if maybe anybody else thinks there are hidden quests like this throughout the game? I know the dev that dropped the hint about the cave also said there are a lot more hidden secrets no one has found makes me wonder just how much more is there?--Thedosian Godfather (talk) 21:43, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

It's possible since I know that there is a lever you can pull in one of the mining tunnels in the Forbidden Oasis that makes some wooden boards swing up and form a ledge that only stays up for like a second. I can't figure out if there is anything else to this or not because it just seems really weird for there to be a lever that only makes some random boards swing up and form a ledge that doesn't seem to have any other apparent purpose. 174.22.233.24 (talk) 01:45, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

I've used that as a shortcut to go back through the tunnels from the pond (it's only supposed to go one way), but I don't think that's its intended purpose. You have place one character right on the plank, then switch to another by the switch and the character on the plank will go up. That character can then travel along the tunnel for awhile and the others will eventually reappear next to him/her. That process is a bit contrived though, and probably not intentional.
In the Crow Fens of the Exalted Plains, there's a cave with a statue of an elf holding a bow and four elven tree-like statues that sorta look like the things you see in the Crossroads. There's a lever causes the elf to fire an arrow at the tree statues. There are also several pressure pads around the cave. Manipulating those two along with lighting certain torches will turn the trees. If you get the elf to shoot through all four trees, it opens a shortcut from the Crow fens camp to the swamp area. Also there's a chest that can only be access by doing this. Not sure if the loot in it is random. I only bothered with the process once because it is extremely complicated and the reward for completing the puzzle is basically nothing. The puzzle itself is not an official quest, and it's not nearly as hidden as the Tiniest Cave, but I think it's supposed to be kinda secret, although I'm sure plenty of other people have discovered it and figured it out.

Whenever I put somebody by the planks to try and go up, the planks just push me away. Anyways, I can just jump up normally. 174.22.233.24 (talk) 05:19, April 11, 2015 (UTC)
Nothing? You get the best +Cunning pendant in the game (if you loot the tomb). Also, the puzzle is not really that complicated (it basically requires to know how to use the HOLD button and divide the task between followers)... with that said, it's the most complex puzzle in the game. I wish we had more of those. (MidnightTea7)
The Dead Hand Puzzle's hardest bit is its lighting. But the Tiniest Cave doesn't even show up in the official guide; the Dead Hand Puzzle does. --Dragonzzilla (talk) 06:11, April 11, 2015 (UTC)
