#1 Thought we had dealt with that, he used to occasionally fall down the elevator hole,, but GORT changed his AI path and it never happened to me again.
#2 I got stuck once but wriggled out with a struggle, so not sure if I reported it, I usually only do so if you need to reload.
#3 That servant was a pain in the backside, a complex scripting issue that we thought was sorted, maybe he did drop the gas mine but not close enough to the guards.
#4 Yeah, GORT took Dromed to it's absolute limit with this mission, so much lighting he was only 1 or 2 cells away from absolute max, so it's likely that with some players the Thief engine may be a bit twitchy, but trust me it was 1000% times better than in the first couple of beta's.

Well now I have the Chalice Of Life. But I cannot navigate the Room Of Statues. I've used the key on the lock outside the room and pressed the button. I've also read the plaque at the door, it hasn't helped!
OK I figured it out through trial and error.

While I've now played this FM through to the finish, there are two points left for me that I'm curious about.
[spoiler]# I haven't found a single secret in this FM. Any hints or suggestions?
# The warehouse manager mentioned that the Mages locked a storage room, banned everyone from entering and took the key with them. Coincidentally there's still a locked door in the warehouse that I can't get into. Any ideas on where to get this key?[/spoiler]

Having the same problem, can't navigate the
Room of Statues (
being pushed back to the start with a sound of flash bombs) despite I used the key and pressed the button. What's the solution there?

Hint:
Remember Bonehoard level?Big Hint:
Remember the room of statues in Bonehoard level? How did you navigate through it?Spoiler:
You must avoid the gaze of statues. You are pushed back to the start when they see you.Here's a drawing of the correct route through the room. Warning, total spoiler:

For a secret,
figure out how reach the chests in the room of statues. I also found another secret
in the warehouse, search
upstairs and remember to
look up.

@ Unkillable Cat
The key you want is found back in the Mages Guild.
Big Hint: Double check the teleport room
There are 3 secrets
One in Warehouse B
2 in the Mage's Guild. Check all of the footlockers

I have a problem with obtaining Hand of Fate.
After obtaining it the room is getting locked. I tried to sneak to the side of the room, but that's impossible. After exploring Mage Guild when I stood on the tile near the fountain, I got randomly teleported to the side of Statue Room. Unfortunately it was an empty side of this room. But now I have no idea how to recreate that. I also checked previous posts and it was noted that the object to replace Hand of Fate is in Training Room. I checked it but I found nothing. So what's the solution to get out of the Statue Room with Hand of Fate?
EDIT: So I managed to beat the mission, but still I have no idea what's with random teleportation.

Knock out a guard or a mage and take his body with you to the room of statues. Now grab the Hand of Glory and place the body on the side tile near the entrance of the room. You will be teleported to another side part of the room, and then just stand one of those tiles and you are moved to the fountain.

@GORT
Thanks on having a FM thumbnail in your FM ZIP! It makes a "screenshot cover" in my directory now. If you are willing to change it, feel free to contact me directly.
I didn't found any plot introduction in your readme, however. In case you would like to add one to the directory, please write to me and I will add it as soon as possible.

I can't passed the statues, I'm constantly transported back to the start.
