31 Cloud Mist Cave is a waterfall cave located in the Hernand region of Crimson Desert. The cave entrance is concealed behind a waterfall along the river system west of Hernand City. Inside, you will find a treasure chest containing the Dark Ringleader's Leather Gloves, one of four pieces of the Dark Ringleader armor set. A stone cairn near the base of the waterfall marks the entrance, serving as a visual indicator that a cave lies behind the falling water.

75 Cloud Mist Cave is situated along a river with multiple waterfalls west and northwest of Hernand City. The cave is part of a cluster of waterfall caves in this area, each hiding a piece of the Dark Ringleader set. Look for a stone cairn (stacked stones) near the base of the waterfall. This cairn signals that a hidden cave entrance exists behind the water.

108 How to Enter

1210 Like most waterfall caves in Crimson Desert, Cloud Mist Cave requires the Stab ability to enter. Stand on the platform or rock surface in front of the waterfall and perform a Stab attack (R1 + Square on PlayStation, RB + X on Xbox) to pierce through the water and enter the cave. You cannot simply walk or roll through the waterfall. If you are having trouble entering, make sure you are standing directly in front of the waterfall and facing it before executing the Stab.

2624 Look for the stone cairn. The stacked stones outside the waterfall are the main visual cue that a cave is hidden behind it. If you see a cairn near a waterfall, always investigate.Collect the full set. All four Dark Ringleader pieces are nearby along the same river. After looting Cloud Mist Cave, continue upstream to find Shadow Heart Grotto, Echoing Tunnel, and Blade Cavern for the remaining pieces.Use the Stab ability. You cannot enter waterfall caves without performing a Stab attack. This is a common requirement for all waterfall-hidden locations in the game.No quest required. Cloud Mist Cave and its treasure are accessible from the moment you can explore the Hernand region freely. There are no quest prerequisites or level gates.
