How to Start the Quest

The quest triggers when you read the inscription on the tower door or examine any of the four Grey Warden statues scattered around Sharksmouth Mountain. You’ll find these after completing the Warden Grey’s Final Repose quest, which unlocks access to this volcanic region.

Look for an inscribed shield near the locked vault door on the northeastern side of Rivain Coast. The inscription speaks of ancient Warden treasures waiting for worthy heroes before volcanic destruction claims them.

The Statue Puzzle Solution

The puzzle requires you to rotate four Grey Warden statues to face specific cardinal directions. Each knight statue must face the correct cardinal direction based on shield decorations that mention their names.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Explore the Area: Find four informational statues around Sharksmouth Cave. Each has a plaque revealing which direction the puzzle statues should face.
  2. Read Each Plaque Carefully: The plaques reference a historic battle and provide directional clues for each Warden knight.
  3. Rotate the Puzzle Statues: Return to the central puzzle area with four interactive statues. Rotate each to match the directions learned from the plaques.

Quick Solution:

  • Left Statue: Face West
  • Front-Left Statue: Face North
  • Front-Right Statue: Face East
  • Right Statue: Face South

Pro Tip: Angle your camera above your character for a clearer view when aligning the statues. This bird’s-eye perspective makes it easier to confirm each statue faces the correct cardinal direction.

Claiming Your Reward

Once all statues are correctly positioned, the vault door opens. Inside the treasure room, you’ll discover three lootable chests containing valuable equipment, crafting materials, and unique items. The quest completion also grants substantial XP to help level your character.

FAQs

Q: Can I complete The Treasure of Sharksmouth Mountain before finishing the main story?

A: Yes! This is a side quest available once you’ve completed “Warden Grey’s Final Repose” and gained access to the Rivain Coast region. You don’t need to progress far in the main storyline.

Q: What happens if I rotate the statues incorrectly?

A: Don’t worry—there’s no penalty for incorrect attempts. Simply interact with each statue again to rotate it until all four face the correct directions. The vault door will automatically open when the puzzle is solved correctly.
