To find this particular Pargrun Cache, head southeast of the Shatterscarp map towards Shark’s Teeth. The Pargrun Cache is right at the southeast corner of the area, and the path to the entrance of the buildings can be easily found. Once you are inside, follow the steps below.
- Don’t jump down into the large hole in the floor just after you enter Pargrun Cache. Instead, go around to the right side and follow the path left to find a lockbox that contains Garnet, Copper Skeyt, Petrified Wood Branch, and other rewards.
- You can now make your way down the large hole by taking support of the wooden beams. Try to head over to the wooden platform on the side of the room first to pick up the Last Warden’s Log.
- Check the surroundings below to find some skeleton enemies roaming around. If you have a ranged weapon, you can shoot them from up where you are.
- Jump down when the coast is clear to find a locked gate. Read the notice beside the gate to get a hint on how to unlock it.
- Hop into the elevator and pull the lever. Try to jump to the middle floor, or go all the way to the top floor, pull the lever to descend, then jump to the middle floor.
- After you make your jump, head towards the area where the floor is broken and jump across towards another locked gate.
- Use your Frost attack on the gate to break it, then head inside and investigate the note on the wall behind the table and the note on the table as well.

All you need to do is pull down the second and third levers from the left, so the first and fourth levers stay up. Next, there is a winch behind the table, turn it to the right side.
Once solved, the closed gate behind you will open up to reveal a secret chest inside. Investigate the contents of the chest to get a torn parchment. Right beside the chest is a switchboard, and all you need to do is press the button to unlock the secret door beside the switchboard. Head inside and pick up the Ornate Pargrun Key and also unlock the lockbox beside it to get Skald’s Gauntlets.
