Revision 2

Overview

The Kuku Iron Pot is a key item in Crimson Desert and one of the most important crafting tools in the game. Crafted by Dwarven artisans at the Kilnden Workshop, this iron pot appears ordinary on the outside but contains an interior linked to an infinite space that defies the laws of nature. It allows Kliff to store Abyss-type objects, machine parts, and contraptions, and serves as the primary device for enhancing equipment and crafting higher-quality gear throughout the campaign.

Item Details

In-Game Description

"An iron pot crafted by recreating ancient skills. Though it appears to be an ordinary pot, its interior is linked to an infinite space that defies the laws of nature. By reshaping the very essence of the materials placed within to create new objects, this single pot holds potential that surpasses new objects."

How to Obtain

The Kuku Iron Pot is obtained during Chapter 4: The Price of Knowledge as part of the The Mysterious Pot main quest (the 49th main mission). Before acquiring the pot, players must first complete the Kiln Repair at the Kilnden Workshop quest, which involves repairing the forge's chimney and three kilns through a series of puzzles.

Kilnden Workshop Kiln Repair Puzzles

At the Kilnden Workshop, located west of Hernand, Kliff must repair the Dwarven forge by completing four steps:

• Chimney Alignment: Align several stone rings by using a lever to select which ring to move (left for top, right for bottom, middle for center). Match all symbols to the glowing blue reference symbol.

• Broken Kiln: Locate two brick parts using Axiom Hand, position them over the damage, rotate to align, then perform a downward Force Palm jump to fuse them together.

• Unpowered Kiln: Go behind the kiln and reconnect the large cable, then activate it via the lever.

• Fuel-Depleted Kiln: Collect five glowing blue fuel cells scattered nearby and deposit them into the five open channels surrounding the kiln.

Obtaining the Pot

After the kiln repairs are complete, speak with Grimnir, the Dwarf smith wearing a Visione helmet (he appears during daytime; use the wait function if prompted). Next to Grimnir is a lever mechanism. Push the lever clockwise to open the floor, causing the Kuku Iron Pot to drop down to a circular stone platform below. Retrieve the pot from this platform to complete the quest.

Usage

After receiving the pot, the follow-up quest The Iron Pot's Usage (the 50th main mission) teaches Kliff how to operate it. Meet the dwarf Togrum, activate Axiom Force by holding L3/LS on a nearby stone ball, then hold Triangle/Y to absorb the stone ball into the pot.

Storage

The Kuku Iron Pot has 230 storage slots and can hold Abyss-type objects, machine parts, and contraptions. It cannot hold regular items such as food, weapons, armor, or recipes. To store an item, look for the "Seal" action when inspecting compatible objects. To retrieve a stored item, examine the Kuku Iron Pot in your inventory and select "Discard" on the desired object.

Crafting and Enhancement

Enhancing the pot allows Kliff to craft equipment of better performance. Additional crafting recipes become available through the main questline and faction quests:

• Recipes from the Witches faction become available from Chapter 5 onward.

• Recipes from the Ironflame Orcs faction become available from Chapter 10 onward.

• Some recipes require rare materials like Abyss Cores, so store them carefully once acquired.

Obtaining Additional Pots

Players can send Greymane recruits on dispatch missions to the Kilnden Workshop to obtain extra Kuku Iron Pots, expanding total storage capacity.

Notes

• The Kuku Iron Pot cannot be sold or discarded.

• If you obtain the pot before unlocking the Kuku Pot storage, any items picked up can be recovered via lost item recovery at the Greymane Camp.

• The pot is described as "a true masterpiece" with patterns that "seemed to pulse with life, as if the artisan had poured his very soul into the metal."
