Secrets & Achievements
The challenge Death Do Us Part can be completed in this environment by finding and activating two Pressure Plates at the same time and entering through the Ancient Gate. It is designed to be solved by two players, but you can use the Engineer's turrets to trigger the plates. An oil pot can also be used to trigger the Pressure Plates. Upon entering, players will encounter two unique Elder Lemurians, Kjaro and Runald. They will drop a Kjaro's Band and a Runald's Band when they die.

Pressure Plates
Pressure Plates are found in random locations in the Abandoned Aqueduct. They are circular buttons that are activated when pressed. Most entities, including players, can keep the button pressed to unlock the Ancient Gate.
