Crescent Skybridge Abyss puzzle walkthrough in Crimson Desert

2 hours ago 2

The Crescent Skybridge Abyss puzzle in Crimson Desert is the final obstacle that stands between you and that unpleasant Crowcaller fellow. A bunch of laser orbs, faulty cables, and deceptively beautiful poisonous flowers will make it difficult to activate the skybridge and complete the second part of Crimson Desert's "Toward the Nest" quest, though.

Here's how to solve the Crescent Skybridge abyss puzzle in Crimson Desert.


How to unlock the Crescent Skybridge abyss in Crimson Desert

The Crescent Skybridge is part of the "Triangle Ring" abyss realm above Demeniss. At the end of Chapter 5, the "Toward the Nest" quest will send you after a bad guy named Crowcaller; you must cross the Crescent Skybridge to reach him. Activating the Spire of Soaring will unlock a floating platform to take you to the Crescent Skybridge.

Once the transfer from the Spire of Soaring to the Crescent Skybridge is complete, you'll find yourself in a large, circular area. Make sure you've activated the abyss nexus teleport waypoint, then climb the wall with the blue circle (west side). From there, climb the wall to your right to reach the highest level of the Crescent Skybridge. We recommend using Force Palm in midair to give yourself an extra boost or the upgraded Axiom Force to slingshot your way up.

When you make it to the top, look out for the glowing blue flowers! If you touch them, they'll drain your HP.

As you can see, there are four large orbs shooting laser beams toward the east. The middle two have already hit their targets, which have turned blue. Your task is to adjust the two remaining orbs so that their lasers also hit their targets, changing them from orange to blue.

The orbs in need of adjustment are on the northeast and southeast edge of the platform you're currently standing on (see the star markers on the map below). Stand behind each orb and use Axiom Force on their back to redirect the laser beam. The orb in the picture below is adjusted correctly; as you can see, its target has turned blue.

Now, fly to the eastern part of the Crescent Skybridge. Here you must find two conduit circuits and connect them. They will look like thick, grey cables. Both are on the highest platform, but one is in the center, and the other is located further south. If you're having trouble finding the split, we recommend using your lantern and following the powered cable until it stops glowing, which is where you'll need to reconnect the cable.

When that's done, use Force Palm on the circular device toward the east to restore Crimson Desert's Crescent Skybridge and unlock the skybridge behind it (the southern one), leading to the Crowcaller boss.

There's another skybridge to the north, but you'll need to defeat the Crowcaller first and then solve the Monolith Crown Abyss puzzle afterward to unlock it.
