How to find 2 lighthouse chests in Dragon Age The Veilguard

The lighthouse has its own secrets.

If you want to get your hands on the Lighthouse Chests in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, this comprehensive ONE Esports guide has everything you need.

The lighthouse is your safe house in the game. Functionally, it’s vaguely similar to Inquisition’s Skyhold, except it’s located somewhere in the Fade.

Like the Skyhold, the Lighthouse is full of mysteries and secrets, which you can unravel throughout the game’s campaign. One of the more prominent mysteries is finding the location of the two chests in the area.

However, it is easier said than done. That’s why we explain how to find all Lighthouse chests.

Lighthouse Chest Locations in Dragon Age The Veilguard

Solve the lighthouse statue puzzle

Before you find the hidden chests in the area, you must solve the lighthouse statue puzzle. Doing so will unlock the music room, where you can find a portal that will take you to some inaccessible parts of the lighthouse. Here you can also find one of the two hidden chests.

There are six statues in the lighthouse. The trick is to arrange the pair so that they are facing each other.

You will find the first pair of statues behind the Neve and Bellara towers in the lighthouse. The next pair of statues is on the floor above the entrance hall.

On the same floor, turn right and you’ll find a lone statue facing the wall. Look around the area to find another lone statue to the right of the dining room, next to Lucanis’ quarters.

Once you rearrange a few images, a magical will-o’-the-wisp will emerge. After rearranging them all, head into the main hall and find a newly unlocked door on the right. Use it to reach the music room.

Now the secret portal in the music room won’t appear until you’ve unlocked all the companions.

Once you’ve unlocked them all, head back to the music room where another will-o’-the-wisp awaits. Approach it and it will fly to one of the two platforms in front of the gate door.

The second bush is on the floor above the main hall, between the two statues.

Take the will-o’-the-wisp to the music room to unlock the portal. Using it will take you to an upper floor in the lighthouse with a second inactive portal. There is another will-o’-the-wisp further down the hall. Use it to activate the portal and reach the Watchtower.

You can find the first Lighthouse Chest here. Open it to get a weapon of your class.

Solve the lighthouse crystal puzzle

There’s also a crystal puzzle here, and solving it will open another secret room in the lighthouse, allowing you to reach the second chest.

To solve this puzzle, you must interact with the beam-throwing object and use it to activate three nearby floating crystals. A will-o’-the-wisp will emerge from each crystal and fly to the great hall. Go there and find an unlocked door next to the stairs. There’s another portal here.

Using the portal will take you to a room called ‘The Wolf’s Den’. The second lighthouse chest is here. Open it to receive an armor piece or a weapon of your class.
