Crypt keys in Isle of Stronsea
I found 2 of them. 1 at the top of the frozen tower on the beach and other one in the tower before the chruch. However i am missing the 3rd one. Checked both in and around of Castle of Langskaal but no luck. Anyone? Thanks.

If I remember correctly, there was another area that was southeast of Castle Langskaal's main entrance that had the key and lots of goodies. In the area before Langskaal, after you head through the small castle gate which has the Spire (Cauldron of Death quest) to the east, you head west to a locked gate, it is above this. After you unlock and pass this locked gate, cast the wall-breaker spell on the inner wall to the left of the gate and going round the other side of this building, grapple your way through. The key should be at the top.

Speaking of that puzzle, the sliding blocks with steps on top, were you able to loot the *upper* chest? I was able to loot the *lower* chest but the upper chest seems like it is out of reach.

Well if i remember correctly to reach upper floor you need to put short block into the hole. Then You need to align 3 long blocks between each other as v or L shape. The block without stairs on it should be the linker between other 2 blocks with stairs on them. First block with stairs for you to climb on blocks, other one with stairs is to reach upper part and the long block without stairs connects them. I hope this will be helpful but if not write again and ill try to check it again after i download the patch. Cheers.

don't bother this one. the item rewarded is crap.

The chest loot is random. If you reload and re-open a chest, you get different items.
That said, everything I've opened on Stronsea/Rookery area, including chests that require lockpicks and master pickpicks, has resulted in total junk. Usually more wood, or even worse, more gold (~150g) which I can't spend on anything useful.

Feels like there was a loot table that is set incorrectly to award too much loot early on, and once awarded there's nothing left later in the game, so you end up with gold gold wood sugar gold etc.

And yes, even the locked chests are completely random, with the exception of things like the puzzle weapon chests in Inshriach.

so wait, where is the second key? I found the one at the top of the 4 block puzzle with two blocks having stairs. I found the one at the lighthouse... don't understand where the last one is

The comment from middleman.one is incorrect.

As the op states;
One at the top of the frozen tower on the beach.
One in the tower before the church.
One in the tower with a block puzzle that have blocks with stairs stacked on top of 2 of the blocks.

I spent a long time looking for the one middleman.one is referring to and while there are secrets there, the key isn't there.
I have 3 crypt keys. Where can I use them?
