Once the pillars have been lined up correctly, the puzzle is solved, and the reward.
Deepfog Basin Dragon Head Ruins
You will find the Crimson Desert Deepfog Basin Dragon Head Ruins in the northern part of Hernand, which is near the Central Guard Post. This puzzle requires the player to place the large blocks to complete the image shown on the floor.
To do this, the player needs to stand near the blocks and use the Stab skill to lock the blocks. Then you will need to drag the blocks in any direction. You will need to place the blocks on the top part first. Then you will need to place the blocks on the sides first to make space, followed by the sun-shaped piece and the head-shaped blocks.
There may be some blocks that get stuck together, so you will need to move left or right to free the blocks. The player will need to adjust the blocks until the image is complete. Once all the blocks are in the correct position, the image will lock, and the puzzle will be complete. The player will then need to go inside to interact with the Abyss Cresset and collect the Abyss Artefact.
Arboria Forest Ruins

Halssius Conflux Ruins
You can find the Crimson Desert Halssius Conflux puzzle near the House of Healing. This puzzle involves a movable pillar in the centre of the puzzle area. To begin, use your Stab attack on the pillar, allowing it to rotate around the centre of the puzzle area. You need to match the position of the pillar with the symbols highlighted by the light from the nearby statue.
To begin, place the pillar in a position where it is aligned with the symbol of the shield. When correctly placed, it will glow, activating the next part of the puzzle. Next, place the pillar in a position where it is aligned with the symbol of the scales. To complete the puzzle, place the pillar in a position where it is aligned with the two symbols of the horse, one inside the circle and one outside the circle.
With all three symbols correctly aligned, the puzzle is complete, and the Abyss Cresset is now unlocked.
Drakesfall Gorge Ruins
This Crimson Desert Drakesfall Gorge puzzle can be found on a plateau near the camp of the Hernand soldiers, along the border of Demeniss. To begin the puzzle, you need to stand on the stone plate at the edge of the area. This will start the puzzle, and the soldier statues will raise their swords.
Next, you need to slowly move along the path toward the king statue at the end of the area. The king statue will occasionally turn around, and its eyes will light up when it faces your direction.
When the king statue’s eyes light up, you need to immediately stop moving. If the king catches you moving, the eyes will turn red, and you need to start the puzzle from the beginning.
Dragon’s Stone Chamber Ruins
The Crimson Desert Dragon’s Stone Chamber puzzle appears on the map near Thinker’s Meadow, but the actual entrance is not there. To reach it, head south into the Hernand Highlands and drop down into the ravine beside the main road. Inside the ravine, look along the rock walls for a brightly colored mural.
Push against the mural shaped like a door, and it will reveal the hidden entrance to the ruins. To open the door leading to the Abyss Cresset, you need to rotate the three stone dials inside the ruins until they are in the correct positions.
The proper alignment is hinted at by murals inside the ruins and around Anvil Hillside Terrace, but you do not actually need to search for those murals if you already know the correct dial positions. Once all three dials are set properly, the door will unlock.
- Set the claw symbol so it points up and slightly to the left.
- Rotate the dragon symbol so it faces toward the right side.
- Turn the sun symbol so it points straight upward.
If the dials do not move when you try to interact with them, it is usually caused by a bug. Saving and restarting the game normally fixes it. Once all three dials are lined up correctly, the puzzle is completed, and the chamber opens to get the reward.
Ancient Rift Maze (Does not Count Towards Trophy)
As the name suggests, for this maze, you’ll need to go to Ancient Rift Maze. Once you reach the marked location, you’ll find yourself on top of a mountain. Go down towards the right and you’ll come across a sort of cave whose entrance is blocked with four pillars.
Equip Sword of the Lord and use it to clear the path. Go inside and you’ll come across a stone structure. Use Force Punch on it and you’ll see that it has lit up on the sides and started rotating. You’ll get the Engraved Stone from here. Take the stone and exit the cave.
Next, go to the marked location that takes you to a ledge. Towards the left, you’ll find another cave entrance blocked with pillars. Use the same technique as before to access the cave and get the second Engraved Stone.
Now, exit the cave and go right from there. You’ll find a narrow passage leading you to another cave. Use the same method as before and get the third and final Engraved Stone.
Finally, you’ll need to go to the northwest part of the map and you’ll find a sort of stone wall in front of the waterfall. There, you’ll find three holes where you’ll need to insert the Engraved Stones you got from the three caves. This will open up the front of the stone wall and you’ll be able to get the Abyss Cresset and complete the Ancient Rift Maze.
Trembling Woods Ancient Ruins
You can find this puzzle in Trembling Woods, which is located in the southern part of the Demeniss region. First, you need to turn all three pedestals to the right as far as you can turn them. Turn them one by one, starting with the left pedestal, then the middle pedestal, and lastly the right pedestal.
Next, you need to align the circles on the pedestals. Make sure the largest circle is pointing towards the northeast direction, the medium circle is pointing towards the west direction, and the smallest circle is pointing towards the south direction. Keep rotating the pedestals until you get the circles aligned in these directions.
The Screaming Vault Ancient Ruins
When you go inside, check the markings on the wall, as they provide a hint to solve the puzzle. The red X markings on the wall correspond to the markings on your map, indicating where the scarecrows are placed around the farm. You can try to locate the scarecrows to get the complete hint, but it is not necessary to solve the puzzle, as you can solve it directly.
To solve the puzzle, perform the following actions on each dial:
- Left dial: Rotate it to place the small shape resembling the above image at the top.
- Center dial: Rotate it to place the two circles at the top.
- Right dial: Rotate it to place the constellation at the top.
Once you have placed all the dials correctly, the puzzle will open, giving you the artifact at the fast travel location.
Hidden Chamber of Wisdom Ancient Ruins
You can find the Hidden Chamber of Wisdom in the snowy mountain region near one of the witch sanctums, in the middle of this region. Go to the mountain and search for a big mural painted on the side of the mountain. Under this mural, there is a hidden hole in the ground. Go down through this hole and into the tunnel to get into the room with the puzzle.
To solve this puzzle, you need to press four buttons: Wind, Lightning, Water, and Fire. The order in which you press them doesn’t matter; you can press them in any order you wish.
You can use Axiom Force to select the button you wish to press and then use Force Current to press the button. Continue doing this until all four buttons are pressed. Once all four buttons are pressed, the wall will move out of the way, revealing the Abyss Artifact.
After clearing this part, you need to cross to the other side. To do that, you need to take out your lantern and shine the light on the rope hanging in the middle. When you see the Precision Jump prompt, use it to balance on the rope and walk across, avoiding the swinging fire brazier.
Kingshield Mountains Ancient Ruins
You can find the Kingshield Mountains Ruins just to the west of the Hexe Sanctuary. So, head in that direction from the Hexe Sanctuary, and you will find the ruins nearby. Collect the jar nearby and put it on top of the jar that is already placed in front of the Abyss Cresset to create a stack of 4 jars.
If the jar breaks during the process of placing it on the other jar while attempting to stack the jars, do not worry. Instead, keep adjusting your position and placing the jars carefully until you successfully stack four jars altogether. Once the four jars are stacked correctly, the puzzle will complete automatically after a short while by the game’s own accord, and you can collect the Abyss Artefact from the crest.
Seonangdang Ancient Ruins
The Bamboo Forest Seonangdang Ruins are located in Demeniss, northeast of the Serpent Marsh. When you get there, your first step is to search the bamboo forest for the loose rocks.
Pick up one rock at a time and place it carefully on top of the stone pile in front of the Abyss Cresset. Continue to add more rocks to the pile, stacking them as you go, until they balance properly and don’t fall off the pile. If one falls off, don’t worry, just correct it and continue.
Once the game recognizes the stacking, the puzzle will be complete, and you can pick up the Abyss Artifact from the Abyss Creast.
Timberdale Cliff Ancient Ruins
To complete this puzzle, head to the Dewhaven Territory in Timberdale. Once you reach the marked location, you’ll find the ruins with two stone blocks on either side marking the puzzle area. Enter the area, and you’ll find circular puzzles on both the right and left walls.
Start from the right wall where you’ll find three rows of stone circles. You’ll need to use Force Punch on them in the following sequence: second stone circle in third row; second stone circle in first row; first stone circle in first row; first stone circle in second row; second stone circle in first row; third stone circle in third row; second stone circle in third row; third stone circle in third row.
After the right wall, you’ll need to solve the puzzle on the left wall. This one has three rows with five stone circles in each row. You’ll need to use Force Punch on the stone circles in the following sequence: first stone circle in first row; first stone circle third row; second stone circle in first row; third stone circle in third row; third stone circle in second row; fourth stone circle in third row; first stone circle in second row; second stone circle in first row; third stone circle in second row; second stone circle in third row; fifth stone circle in second row.
Once you’ve completed both puzzles, the stone wall in the front will reveal the Abyss Cresset marking the completion of your objective.
Golden Plains Ancient Ruins
You can easily find the Golden Plains puzzle very close to the secret chamber ruins. If you are already in that area, then the Golden Plains puzzle is just a short distance away. To start with the Golden Plains puzzle, first move towards the area blocked by the bushes and vines. Then, burn them off by setting them on fire. Once the vines are out of the way, you can easily find the fourth statue hidden in the area.
If you turn Statue (2), then Statue (1) also turns. Similarly, if you turn Statue (1), then Statue (3) turns too.
To complete the Golden Plains puzzle, first move to Statue (1) and turn it towards the center. This will also turn Statue (3) towards the center.
After that, move to Statue (4) and turn it towards the center. This will also turn Statue (2) towards the center.

When you reach the puzzle area, the first thing to do is to move all the stone carts or machines to the end of the track. Once you have done that, climb on top of the cart and shoot the statue in front of you using your bow. Shooting the statue will make it turn as the revolving door in front opens.
Keep shooting the right side of the statue to turn it completely. If you have the Charged Shot skill, it’s better to use it as it turns the statue much quicker. Once you have turned the statue to the correct direction, you will know it’s the right direction when the eyes start to glow.
Repeat the same process for the two other carts and statues. Once all three statues are in the correct direction, the puzzle is now complete. You may now approach the Abyss Cresset to obtain the Abyss Artifact.
Five-Finger Mountain Icy Ruins
