A Tale of Two Guardians

Starting hero: Korak (Sanctuary)
Size: Huge
Description: The time of Reunification is approaching, but the world of Xeen is in turmoil. A undead general, calling himself the "Lord of Xeen," intends to conquer the entire world and has already captured Prince Roland. But this threat is opposed by a mysterious being...

Question: who managed to reach Sheltem (he's behind locked gates)? I've already destroyed everyone, visited every corner of the map, completed all the missions, but I still can't complete the "Defeat Sheltem" quest.
By the way, Ranmaru Rei, why don't you add a poll here (balance/design...)?

I apologize, but where did this mission come from? Is it an official scenario or a fan-made one?

It's an official one, included in one of the adventure expansions. And I also couldn't complete it, encountering the same problem.

there is a bug on this map: the bug isn't mine, but it's interesting: has anyone else encountered it?

Yes, I saw that bug too, but on a different map, when I was playing as Cyril, I think it was on the last mission. I had a black square right in the middle of the field.

Guys, let's get down to business. Basically, I've made some progress. The entrance to the Dungeon will open as soon as the Temple for the Tear of Ashi is built. The Tear of Ashi is located in the Northwest. There's a bunker with creatures there – it's surrounded by a fence made of large tusks, so it's not hard to find. The reward for defeating them is the Tear of Ashi. Quickly take it to the designated location, build the Temple, and that's it. The Dungeon is open. Now, the problem is that the last enemy is behind closed gates. Based on the previous issue, it seems that all the Guardian artifacts need to be collected – I'm tired of looking for them; I've only found four so far. The hero is maxed out. The army is huge, but I don't know where the artifacts are.

I played this scenario quite a while ago, but I definitely remember collecting all the artifacts. I just don't remember where each one was located. I completed all the quests except for the final one. No matter what I did or how long I waited, the gate wouldn't open. And I'm too lazy to replay it.

I completed this scenario, but I don't quite remember how I opened the gates and completed the final task! (Defeat Shel'tem).

Is it impossible to remember how to do it? I mean, as far as I understand, you're the only one who watched the thread and completed it. The rest got stuck at the gates.

Isn't it possible to remember how to bypass it? I mean, as far as I understand, you're the only one who has completed the map. The rest got stuck at the gates.

I completed the map before patch 1.8. If I have time, I'll try to complete it again...

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to open the gates, so I'll be waiting for your advice.

A similar situation... I cleared the map, collected the entire set of armor, freed Kalindra, found Shangri-La... in short, I did everything except "defeat Sheltem"... I'm standing here, headbutting the gate, and I don't know where else to go. Also, there are two unused underground entrances, but both are inaccessible - one is visible at a level below the dungeon (next to the entrance that leads to Shangri-La), and the other is on the surface, blocked by a large stone - maybe there's some trick to them, and I need to find a way to get through them to open the gate? But how...?

Actually, the situation is the same as with everyone else. Sheltem doesn't want to leave and has no intention of doing so. I also noticed a peculiarity on the map: the AI is very weak, regardless of the difficulty level (I played on easy and normal). It seems that after patch 1.8, instead of fixing errors on the map, there are even more of them than before. Judge for yourself: "- In a tale of two Guardians map, the Lord Xeen’s army is triggered too early and it is too aggressive." - this is the description for the patch. It seems that instead of making the AI a little weaker, they simply disabled it, which is why Sheltem isn't moving.

This is indirectly confirmed by Liiion's words about completing the scenario before the patch. That's the situation =(

I CONFIRM! After patch 1.8, the AI doesn't develop at all!! Not in campaigns, but specifically in scenarios and on single-player maps.
I played through the official scenario "The Legend," and I was simply disappointed that the enemy heroes were standing in UNBUILT CASTLES with their starting army..................................... it's not interesting....
None of the one-way teleporters were used to harass or overwhelm with numbers....
I hope this will be fixed in "Shades of Darkness"!

Two questions - did you manage to complete the mission? Where was the lion's mane cloak located; I can't seem to find it.
