Gate of Chim

The Gate of Chim is the gate guarding the Scroll Temple of Chim. It is under the protection of Kingscrest Keep. To open the gate, Kingscrest Keep and Arrius Keep must both be captured, although they do not need to be held by the same alliance. While closed, the gate can only be used by members of the Ebonheart Pact, who frequently pass through when traveling between the contested areas in Cyrodiil and their safe zone at the Northern Morrowind Gate.

The gate is guarded by a number of boss-level soldiers who have a high range of stealth detection, so it is inadvisable for members of enemy alliances to venture too close when the gate is closed. Similarly, assaulting the gate while it is open is best tackled by a group, as the guards respawn relatively quickly. It should also be noted that it is no longer possible for enemy alliance members to become trapped inside the Scroll Temple grounds if the Pact recaptures Kingscrest or Arrius, thereby closing the Artifact Gate, as there are now steps up to the higher level of the gate, from which you can jump down to exit the area.
