Ruins of desarune chest

[Ween]

has anyone figured out how to get up to the chest in the north western part of the dungeon? i cant for the life of me figure it out :/

There is a button on the wall, stand under the wooden bridge that is 2 blocks wide, just go left to the wall the down into the crevice, check the wall above you for the button, you will need to climb as high as you can then toss something onto a pressure plate. Enjoy that chest, it's a lot of fun.

Note that you can't see the pressure plate, so you have to throw something into the darkness. Figured that out just minutes ago. The contents aren't that great though; at least not if you have been killing the enemies with harpoons by falling on them.

wow so simple yet i have been stuck on it for ages :p

Thanks for the info guys was really starting to annoy me that i knew i was missing a secret

[RemysRevenge]

Still can't figure this one out. This is for the chest on top of that pillar kinda landing? I can't get to it, been trying for a while.

[Ween]

yes thats the one, when you climb the ladder that takes you to the same height as the chest throw a rock into the dark spot and it should open a walkway

[RemysRevenge]

Awesome. thnks so much. I thought I had tried that but I guess not.

This is a hard puzzle, had me stumped for days. I think the hardest actual thing about this puzzle though, was deciding how to go about searching for it online. Needs a map screenshot but we're all lazy.

-_-.....not amussed as to how people didn't mention what was in it.


(I got mimic'ed)

I did mention what was in it. Mimics are randomized. They patched out the ability to get harpoons by dropping down on underwater enemies, so that chest has at least some value now.

In case you didn't realize, there are 2 harpoons and 2 tribal spears available (one each is in Desarune iirc). So you can still put 'scuba' gear on all four of your people if you like. So, the chest isn't as useful as some. Definitely not worth your last lockpick.

That's hardly an issue. There are more lockpicks than locked chests.

[delve202]

If you have them when you get to that chest. Typically when I get to that point I've run across three or four more chests than lockpicks so I'm choosy about what I open.
Edit: And frankly, the harpoons just aren't that generally useful
