Rules question - Can Heroes in a pit open doors in adjacent squares?

By realitytrip, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

I ask because in Well of Darkness Quest 8 The Spiral of Death, there is a door that has to be opened that is completely blocked by a pit. Obviously, a flying character could do it, but outside of that, a character would have to be able to open the door from the pit, no?

Thanks in advance.

I can't see why not. And I think the fact that it's in that quest answers your question for you. Heroes can see spaces adjacent to them in a pit, so they can see and open the door as usual for 2 movement points. Then it's another 2 movement to move out of that pit and into the area they just revealed.

They definitely can. In fact there is a Door trap card called Welcome Mat (?) that creates a 2 space wide pit in front of a door.

I thought so, just wanted to double check.

Thanks!
