[QUOTE="Stoat, post: 5742959, member: 16786"] Just looking at the 1E PHB, their best bet is for the 14th level pregen Cleric's to cast [i]Commune[/i]. As I read it, the Cleric will get guaranteed true answers to 14 yes/no questions. Obviously, whether or not this gambit succeeds depends on what questions the player's ask. [i]Augury[/i] isn't bad, but it isn't great either. You only get one question, the answer is either "weal" or "woe", and there's an 84% chance you get it right. Aggressive rules-lawyers might try [i]Find the Path[/i]. "The spell will enable the cleric to select the correct direction which will eventually lead him or her to egress, the exact path to follow [b](or actions to take)[/b], and this knowledge will persist as long as the spell lasts . . ." (emphasis added). So if (a) the spell can lead the cleric to a place on the other side of the door; and (b) the "actions to take" part of the spell is interpreted generously; then FtP should do the trick. The 14th level pregen Wizard can cast [i]Limited Wish[/i]. Who knows what happens if he wishes to know how to open the Mithral Valves? The wizard also has [i]Contact Other Plane[/i], but I'd avoid using it. [/QUOTE]
