Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Ivory Sanctum Puzzle Solutions (2024)

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous contains multiple button puzzles with various solutions inside the Ivory Sanctum, an area that becomes available in Act 3. Cryptic notes help you complete the puzzles inside the Sanctum, but some clues can be obtuse. Regarding puzzles in the game, the Ivory Sanctum puzzles are likely some of the more complicated ones you'll encounter.

There are a lot of puzzles in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, and some are harder than others. Players who hope to complete the Ivory Sanctum puzzles must first navigate a fair amount of the Final Sunset of Winter Quest. Only after you obtain a key from that quest can you enter the Ivory Sanctum to solve the puzzles inside.

How To Get The Key From The Final Sunset Of Winter

Opening The Doors To The Ivory Sanctum

To obtain the key from the "Final Sunset of Winter" quest, players will have to venture into Wintersun and investigate the village. Once they have, they will have to confront Marhevok, who is controlling the village and acting out of fear as the whole village has lost its protection. You will have several options for this confrontation, but Marhevok will attack you.

You will discover that Beverach, who will aid Marhevok in the fight, is a 43-level Armor Class dragon. She is immune to cold damage, so equip some cold protection and avoid using any attacks that use it. Marhevok is much less threatening, but Kalavakus protects them, so you may have to get rid of them first. Particularly since they can use the Enslave effect on your companions in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.

After the fight, you must take the Secret Passage behind the throne to the next area. Loot as you want, but follow the path down until you encounter Marhevok’s injured body. He will drop a Bone Key, which will be added to your inventory.

Upon collecting the Bone Key, Jerribeth will appear, and you will have several choices regarding the fate of the village and Marhevok himself. After it has been decided, Jerribeth will leave, stating that you now have a key to her home.

How To Enter The Ivory Sanctum

Using The Bone Key To Unlock Jerribeth's Front Door

Once inside, there will be a wave of enemies to defeat, along with rock traps and additional creatures that will attack if Jerribeth's deal is turned down earlier. This means you should be prepared to fight as soon as you enter the Ivory Sanctum, and it will get worse for you depending on how angry at you Jerribeth is.

The remaining three puzzles lead to various rewards, but how to solve these puzzles can be tricky. Players will receive clues in cryptic notes, including numbers corresponding to the buttons' shapes. These buttons have to bepressed in a certain order and are usually located on a nearby wall, each displaying a figure with a specific number of points.

To solve the Ivory Sanctum puzzles in Pathfinder: WotR, two party members must stand on pressure plates while entering the sequence solution. The three puzzles are located in the following places: one in the north room, one in the central area, and the last in the southwest room. They do not have to be solved in a particular order, but it might be easier or harder, depending on Jerribeth's attitude.

Careful Button Pressing

The first Ivory Sanctum button puzzle in Pathfinder: WotR is located in the Main Hall, a room with statues around the perimeter. A cryptic note reveals that the buttons should be pressed in the following order: triangle, hexagon, pentagon, and diamond. Entering the correct code will reveal a chest containing a Cloak and a Mask used for the "More Than Nothing" quest. Continue north to the upper part of the Sanctum to find Pathfinder: WotR's next button puzzle.

In the northern part of the map, there is a button puzzle with two solutions. The first sequence will grant you a hidden chest; press diamond, circle, triangle, then hexagon to play a short animation that shows a wall dropping to expose the container. This chest carries theRing of Sacred Touch, which can increase the wearer's attacks when touching the target or increase the wearer's healing effect if they touch the injured person.

The doors here can be opened by pressing a triangle, pentagon, diamond, and circle. Inputting this code will open the door to the boss battle in the next room. If Jerribeth's deal was turned down, you must defeat her as you travel toward the last Sanctum puzzle in the southwest area.

You can also potentially accept Jerribeth's offer to help, depending on your standing with her after you have solved a second puzzle, which could make the latter half of the dungeon a lot easier.

The last Ivory Sanctum puzzle code can be found southwest of the dungeon. Before entering the correct sequence in this final Ivory Sanctum puzzle, two Pathfinder: WotR party membersmust be standing on these pressure plates in the area.

The clue is in one of the chests, revealing the final solution: circle, pentagon, hexagon, triangle. This will reveal a hidden door, behind which is a pile of loot. Completing the last puzzle will open the final area in the Ivory Sanctum and leave you a richer party in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.
