How to Complete the Steel Mountains Bell Puzzle in Crimson Desert

Select Language:

In Crimson Desert, there are many fast travel spots scattered across Pywel. Some of these locations can only be unlocked by completing a small puzzle, which also grants you an Abyss Cresset along with the travel point. One of the earliest and most rewarding puzzles is found in the Steel Mountains.

Here’s how to locate the Steel Mountain Ruins puzzle, how to solve it, and what rewards you’ll get for your efforts.

How to find the Steel Mountain Ruins

First, go to the mountainous region just northwest of the Spire of Insight. The Spire is slightly northwest of the area marked “Steel Mountains” on your map.

As you journey northwest, you’ll come across a small outdoor workshop set up on the edge of a mountain wall. Nearby, you’ll see a group of eight bells and some papers posted on a board.

How to solve the Steel Mountain Ruins Bell Puzzle

To solve this puzzle, focus on the pages with symbols written on them. These symbols match those above the bells in the area.

For simplicity, we’ve numbered the bells from one through eight, starting at the top left corner and moving down in a snake pattern.

To unlock the nearby stone wall, ring the bells in this specific order: 1-2-3-4-5-6-4-3-2-1.

You can activate the bells by either hitting them with a mallet or shooting them with arrows.

Once you ring the bells correctly, the stone wall will open, revealing a platform with an Abyss Cresset and a new fast travel point. You can now teleport back here anytime, making it a very useful spot for other quests in this area.
