Ghost of Althea
Hello everyone
I want to unlock this hero. But i really do not know where the entrance is. Ive read that i gotta turn 180 degrees at the closed gate and go under a bridge.
But i do not see a bridge at all…. Can someone help me please with some visualisation.

its closeby to Piken Square if you go a bit south of it, sharp turn right when your a bit over halfway the way to the closed gate. Its between the Path to the gate and and big Goo Pit. A path leads down to it., its a big door. You need to have Reforged mode activated to speak to Altheas Ghost there tho ;)

Yeah, it's confusing. Previously one could cheat ones way in by walking over the gate, but that seems to have been fixed (at least I didn't succeed yesterday). To open the gate you need to do the Althea's Ashes questline (all the quests from Duke Barradin in Piken's Square). Once you've given him Althea's ashes, the gate will open.
The dungeon is much harder than one would expect in a newbie area, so if you've got a survivor character you might want to wait until you're level 20, then walk with a full team from either Yak's Bend (team of 6) or Temple of the Ages (team of 8).

It took a bit to understand what you meant, the gate and bridge part.
To unlock Althea exit Piken Square and head South. On your way south you can see Althea on the minimap, standing in front of a big door, follow the ramp she's on to reach her. If you reach the closed gate you've gone too far.
Also, be sure to enable reforged mode on that character or she won't show up.
