How to Solve

To solve the South Vault, you need to use Briggsy’s notes about it in the Quest Book. She has been doodling some of the symbols she has found along her travels and somehow managed to group them into the correct sections. Your task is to turn the pillars to match the symbols in each group.

Briggsy’s Notes about the South Vault.

You’ll find as you enter the Vault is that one of the pillars is cracked and disabled. You are not able to turn it, which leads to the question:What do we do?

You still have to match the symbols with the one in the book, but you have to determine which one needs to be left out of the solution. We assume this was a mechanic implemented by the game developers to complicated things. Still, all it led to was that we now only need to match three symbols instead of four.

The South Vault on the Shores of Gold.

The most difficult partis that once this Altar is activated, the room fills up with water very quickly. Beyond that, you truly do just need to figure out which symbol is the odd one out. You need to turn the pillars to match the other three icons three times for this hidden room behind the wall to be revealed.

Return the Medallion

Take the Medallion to the Compass Room on the peninsula just south of the North Vault’s peninsula. It will automatically fit in the slot on the left side.
