The continent of Pywel in Crimson Desert<\/a><\/strong> is teeming with environmental puzzles and hidden treasures that reward curious travelers. One of the first major secrets you\u2019ll likely stumble upon is the Goddess of Justice statue, located just north of Hernand City. Much like the hidden shrines in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/em> or the environmental riddles in God of War<\/em>, this puzzle guards a powerful early-game weapon: the Legionary’s Gladius<\/strong>. Here is how to solve it and claim your prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the Goddess of Justice Statue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To track down the statue, head directly north from Hernand City<\/strong> into the Three Saints’ Falls<\/strong> area. As you explore the cliffs, look for the Heart of the Saint<\/em> cave marker on your map. The statue isn’t inside the cave but sits on a high plateau nearby. You\u2019ll need to put your climbing skills to use to reach the ledge where the goddess stands before a set of imposing iron bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Solve the Candle Puzzle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Goddess of Justice is flanked by four stone pillars and holds a candle in each of her hands. The steel gate behind her, which leads to the treasure chest, is magically sealed until these candles are lit. Follow these steps to unlock the room:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Approach the statue and stand close to the Goddess\u2019s hands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • You must light both candles<\/strong> she is holding.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • If the prompt to light them doesn’t appear automatically, you may need to focus: hold LB \/ L1 \/ CTRL<\/strong> (depending on your platform) to examine the candles, then press the interact button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    As soon as both flames are flickering, the mechanism will trigger, and the barred door behind the statue will swing open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Reward: The Legionary’s Gladius<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Inside the small chamber, you\u2019ll find a treasure chest containing the Legionary’s Gladius<\/strong>. This one-handed sword is a significant upgrade over your starting gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • High Base Damage:<\/strong> It packs a punch right out of the box, making early combat encounters much smoother.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Upgrade Potential:<\/strong> Unlike common swords, the Gladius can be further upgraded at a blacksmith to remain effective well into the mid-game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Editorial View<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      The Goddess of Justice puzzle is a perfect example of Crimson Desert\u2019s “show, don’t tell” approach to exploration. It\u2019s a simple interaction that makes the world feel ancient and lived-in. Grabbing the Legionary’s Gladius early is highly recommended\u2014while the combat in Pywel can be brutal, having a high-damage weapon this early takes the edge off the initial difficulty spike. Plus, it just looks incredibly cool on your belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Q: Where exactly is the Goddess of Justice statue located?<\/strong>
      A: It is located north of Hernand City in the Three Saints’ Falls area, specifically on a high plateau near the Heart of the Saint cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Q: I can’t interact with the candles. What am I doing wrong?<\/strong>
      A: You may need to “Examine” them first. Hold your focus key (LB\/L1\/CTRL) while looking at the candles, then press the interact button to light them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Q: Do I need a torch or fire magic to light the candles?<\/strong>
      A: No, you can simply interact with the candles to light them once you are close enough and have triggered the interaction prompt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Q: Is the Legionary’s Gladius worth keeping for the whole game?<\/strong>
      A: It is one of the best early-game weapons due to its damage and upgrade path, though you will eventually find legendary or specialized weapons that surpass it later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Q: Can the puzzle be reset if I fail?<\/strong>
      A: There isn’t really a failure state for this puzzle. Once both candles are lit, the door remains open permanently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":20793,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-20800","pruvodce","type-pruvodce","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","pruvodce-category-crimson-desert"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCrimson
