Overview
"Go to the top of the Spire of the Stars" is the main objective of the Spire of the Stars quest in Chapter 4 of Crimson Desert. The spire contains a multi-step elevator puzzle that requires collecting cubes, aligning symbols, and riding the elevator before it descends again. The puzzle has three distinct phases.
Step 1: Collect Three Small Cubes
When you enter the Spire of the Stars, look for three yellow walls marked with purple icons on your minimap. One wall is to the left of the elevator; the other two are to the right.
Approach each yellow wall and use Force Palm (R3 / Right Stick) to break it open.
A small cube is hidden behind each wall. Pick up all three cubes.
Insert the three cubes into the wall sockets positioned in front of the elevator.
Step 2: Align Four Elevator Symbols
After inserting the cubes, activate the wall sockets using Force Palm to push them upward. Now you need to align four symbols into their correct positions.
The alignment works by climbing up to each symbol and hanging onto it, letting gravity slide it into position. The correct arrangement from top to bottom is:
Left symbol goes in the top slot
Second-from-left symbol goes in the second slot from the top
Right symbol goes in the third slot from the top
Third-from-left symbol goes in the bottom slot
Reference images showing the correct positions are displayed on the walls in the side rooms. Use these as a guide if you get confused.
When all four symbols are correctly placed, they stop glowing yellow and the floor turns blue. The elevator is now ready.
Step 3: Ride the Elevator
Board the elevator and ride it to the top of the spire.
Exit immediately when you reach the top. The elevator starts descending automatically after a few seconds, and if you stay on it, you will ride it back down and need to activate it again.
Continue upstairs and enter the Abyss on the highest floor.
Tips
If a symbol will not slide into position, make sure you are hanging from the correct side. Let go and re-grab if it seems stuck.
Check the wall murals in the side rooms for a visual reference of the correct symbol order. This is easier than memorizing positions.
Do not linger on the elevator. The auto-descent timer starts almost immediately after it reaches the top.
