There is a small island named Giant Geyser in the middle of the Bay of Bounty. The tiny island doesn’t give off the vibes of holding something special, but it holds the Key to a new area. To recover the key we must solve a puzzle and defeat a monster, all of that unfolds on that tiny island. Here is a guide to solving the Giant Geyser puzzle in Bay of Bounty.
Guide To Solving Giant Geyser Puzzle In Bay of Bounty
Here are the steps you need to follow to solve the Giant Geyeser Puzzle in Bay of Bounty:
- There is a small island in the middle of the Bay of Bounty in Svartalfheim, our quest revolves around that location. Take your boat to the Boat Dock “Giant Geyser” on the small island. After a bit of exploration, you will receive a quest titled “The Weight of Chains“.
- Get off the boat, and throw your Leviathan Axe at the Red Vessel blocking the debris on your path to get to the higher level.
- When you arrive at the higher ground, a giant elevator will be in front of you and right next to a small lake. On your left you can see a Crank, we need to control the wheel to mess with the elevator in front of us. There is also a yellow-colored Gear attached to the elevator.
- Interact with the Crank to lower the floor inside the elevator, now use the Leviathan Axe with one hand and throw it at the Gear to freeze it.
Note: Don’t let go of the wheel to throw the Leviathan Axe at the Gear. You can throw the axe at the Gear to freeze it while holding the Crank. If you let go of the Crank, the floor will come back on again in the elevator.
- Once the Gear is frozen solid, take the path left of the elevator, climb down, and then shimmy along to the right. Eventually, you will be on the elevator floor. Now call your Leviathan Axe to move the floor.
- When you are on the top, you can see a breakable spot on the ground, the game will pop up an Interact button to help you smash through the spot on the ground. But get ready for an enemy encounter.
Once the monster is long gone, loot the chest, and you will get the “Key to the Watchtower“. That’s it, the puzzle in Giant Geyser Island is resolved, now with the key in your possession, you can now sail to the Watchtower.
