SPIRE OF CLOCKWORK LOCATION & SOLUTION

1 PHASE 33 VIEWSUPDATED MAY 18, 2026MEDIUM

Spire of Clockwork is a massive puzzle tower scattered across Pywel. Solving it unlocks an Abyss Gate and counts toward the Lands Meet the Sky challenge. Most spires require story progress before they can be completed.

  1. STEP 01

    Find the Spire

    Spires are the tallest structures in each region and impossible to miss. The Clockwork Spire features massive rotating gears and mechanical components. Use Guiding Light (L1+R1 / LB+RB) when near any spire to see the entrance glow. Approach the base to find the entry portal.

PRO TIP

Make sure you have progressed far enough in the main story before attempting spire puzzles. If the entrance portal doesn't activate, you need more story progress first.

  1. STEP 02

    Solve the Clockwork Mechanism

    Find the central diagram on the ground near the Cresset — it is a map of the entire area showing all 11 doors and which symbol each needs to show. One door on the south is already correct, leave it alone. For each remaining door: use Axiom Force to grapple it, then charge Force Current to flip it. Climb to the top of walls to spot doors more easily. The hardest door to find is in a small vine-covered nook in the bottom-northwest section of the area. When all 11 doors match the diagram they will light up, activating the Abyss Cresset.

WATCH OUT

Timing is critical in clockwork puzzles. If you activate switches at the wrong moment, the mechanisms may reset and you'll need to wait for the next cycle. Be patient and observe the full rotation pattern before acting.
