Help, why if you have the "Loadstone" the Altepa Gate will not open?

As of the 2011 Update introducing the Open Sesame Quest. The weight switches needed to get to the 4 color columns can be opened solo on any race after obtaining Loadstone.

Once all 4 columns have been activated, the Altepa Gate will open and remain open for about 15-30 minutes.

Standing at a gate hoping for it to open won't happen.
Go research how and do it yourself.
Or do what 95% of lazy people in asura does, yell it with a reward.

It's just another instance of "should have been QOL'd 10 years ago". It's not a hard quest, but the running around is kind of silly.

That's literally the only advantage Galka has over other races.

Interestingly enough, you can swap character models to a Galka and still gain the effect of Lodestone, so it's not even unique anymore (unless they patched this)

/yell in town and ask someone to help you. The quest isn't hard, but rather confusing. A veteran will be able to do it in 10 mins vs your 2 hours.
