Navigate the treacherous Craggy Peak Ruins in Dark Age of Camelot. This guide details puzzles, enemy encounters, and essential item locations to help you conquer this challenging zone.
Alright, so you've made it to Craggy Peak Ruins. As soon as you arrive, your magical cloud steps vanish – bummer! Don't worry, it's not too bad. Tyrell's nose tells us no one lives here, which is a good sign for us.
First things first, there's a Wise One statue to your right if you need to heal up. Check out the mirror above the circle; it shows a centaur instead of your reflection, which is pretty neat.
Head to your left and you'll see a vine. Use your Grow psynergy on it to climb up. Once you're up, use Grab to swing over to the right and grow another vine. You can also push a statue to the right here. Up top, you can examine a tablet, and then enter the door you just opened. Inside, cast Whirlwind on the fan to make a pillar appear down below.
Go down and grab that pillar. This will align some stones and create a walkway. Step onto the slab, and it'll take you further down.
You're now in a massive room with a ton of doors, each marked with a zodiac sign. It can be a bit overwhelming, but take it one room at a time. It's a good idea to set your Grab psynergy to a shoulder button for easier use. You can tackle these rooms in a slightly different order, but it's best to stick close to the suggested path. Oh, and keep an eye out for Chimera monsters; they drop Water of Life, which is super useful!
Aquarius (The Urn Room)
Head into the urn room. Go left and grab the spire to rotate the central walkway. Climb the stairs and cast Fireball on the lion statue holding a chest. Make your way back, move the walkway again to reach the chest, which contains the [Spiked Armor]. Now, rotate the walkway once more to proceed.
In the next area, cast Douse on the urn to open another door back in the main door room. Head back and enter it.
Leo (The Lion)
This is probably the easiest room. Just shoot fire at the lion statue. Doing so opens up two more rooms for you to explore.
Gemini (The Twins)
Take the upper path. You'll find a clever puzzle involving two statues where moving one affects the other. If you can't physically move them, remember you can always use Matthew's 'Move' psynergy. Here’s the sequence:
- Up, Up
- Left, Left, Left
- Down
- Left, Left
- Up, Up
- Right
- Up, Up
- Right, Right
- Down
- Right, Right
- Up, Up, Up
- Right
If you find an easier way, definitely let us know!
Libra (The Scales)
Jump on the scale and move forward. The tablet here mentions that the four angels must find balance. Jump onto the right scale and move the top statue onto it. Step off to the south; the scales will stay in place. Move to the left scale, jump on it, and it will lower completely. Move the top statue onto this scale and step off. You're halfway done!
Repeat the process on the other side, and you'll solve this puzzle, getting you closer to unlocking more doors.
Virgo (The Woman)
Move the central walkway to continue. This puzzle is pretty straightforward: use Grab once, then Grow once.
Pisces (The Fish)
Go to the right and move the central walkway to proceed. Cast Douse on the two fish to solve this puzzle.
Aries (The Ram)
Go down the stairs and into the next room. You'll need to shoot a fireball at the ram wall, but be warned: doing so will cause the two rams on either side to pop out. Your goal is to make all rams disappear. Here's the trick: shoot the first ram, then the one on the right. Shoot the far-right one next, and finally, the one in the middle.
Cancer (The Crab)
Move up the right side and grab the pillar on the statue to turn it, revealing a chest. Inside, you'll find the [Grievous Mace]. Use Grab on the middle pillar to move on.
Use the Parch psynergy on the bowl in this room to solve it.
Scorpio (The Scorpion)
Go left in this room and use Grab at the end to create a stepping stone to the next area. Take note of the warrior and scorpion statues here. In the next room, you need to replicate the scene you just saw. Push the top-left block right and then down, so it's in front of the soldier. Then, push the top-right block to the left. You can also inspect the soldier statue to get the [Vambrace].
Now, push the scorpion block left and then up. One final push to the right, and you're done.
Taurus (The Bull)
There are two movable gears/steps here, one in the middle and one at the top. There's also a Jupiter Djinn trapped in a lion's mouth! Move the top gear to reach the door and shoot the lion with a Fireball. Go back down and use Grab on the lower steps to reach the Djinn and obtain the Jupiter Djinn, Doldrum.
Enter the room above for a puzzle involving a bull's horns. You need to Douse the two recesses to fill them with water, then Freeze both to create the
