Ok, i am now in the hidious fortress of regrets. when i enter, i go upstairs to the right, read my writing on the clock and then use the cannon on the back. It transfers me to a cutscene between that green giant fiend (cannot recall the name), and Fall-From-Grace. After some speech, they fight & fall dies. Then i appear near another portal. Same happens but this time annah dies. And then an army of shadow close my path and i die... What should i do now?

THX in advance

EDIT: Help... Anyone? :(

Right well you made it about halfway through this trial. There are two other guns to activate at which point you will be able to progress to the next trial.

The main problem will be the shadows, try to take them on one or two at a time. If you are a fighter hopefully you can take them one on one. If you are a thief try backstabbing them, again try to fight them one or two at a time. If you are a mage you could try outrunning them and use cloudkill on groups (if I remember right it kills all shadows in range).

there are four cannons. The one on East kills Fall-From-Grace. The one on the west kills annah. The one in the middle kills dakkon & the upper one opens a portal to where i began. Im a fighter but... say... didnt brought a lot of heart charms... =S
When all four cannons have been fired it will open the portal up where the northern canon was (the one that sent you back to the start).

Simply run back up the stairs to the fourth cannon (the one that did not kill a follower for you) and through the portal near it into the next area.

As a mage (who hasn't managed to beat the fortress yet), I can safely say that Cloudkill barely hurts the shadows let alone kill them out right.
@ Hippoman

That is odd... the shadows are classified as level 1 despite the mountain of health they possess, cloudkill should destroy them quite easily. It was actually a fairly common exploit in the original game.

If you still have not cleared the fortress and you don't mind my asking, I have a few questions that will give me a better idea of the situation:

Were you hit while casting?
- that would prevent the spell from casting

Do you have any fixpacks installed?
-Quinn did alot of work to patch up the most obvious bugs and exploits including the cloudkill bug (I think) so that might explain the problems you are having.

How often have you died in game?
-this will increase the number of enemies...

Ultimately as a mage your best bet is to run from one cannon to the next, it will be difficult to fight off all the shadows (though not impossible) and they do respawn (I think) so you can't kill them all.
