Pressure Plate Puzzle Location

The Pressure Plate and Weight Block Puzzle can be found in this area. Use the highlighted Resonance Beacon and head southeast to find the puzzle.

Pressure Plate and Weight Blocks Puzzle

Upon arriving at the puzzle's location, the six Pressure Plates will look like this. There will be two Weight Blocks (one which will be locked), and one of the circles with lights will have two blue and four red lights on it.

Free the Locked Weight Block

The orientation of these lights match that of the Pressure Plates. Activate the two Pressure Plates that correspond to a blue light on the circle using a Weight Block and the Player Character.

Once this part of the puzzle is completed, the locked Weight Block will be unlocked for use.

Follow the Second Circle to Unlock the Door

When the locked Weight Block is freed, the second circle with lights will also change. This time, use both Weight Blocks and the Player Character to activate the three correct Pressure Plates.

Once the correct weight blocks have been activated, the door to the nearby building will open.

Pressure Plate Puzzle Rewards

In the building, there will be an Advanced Supply Chest, as well as the Guide Crystal, which the player can interact with to obtain.

Energy Matrix Puzzle Guide

Energy Matrix Puzzle Location

This puzzle is further south from the Pressure Plate and Weight Block Puzzle. Be careful when approaching the area, as there are Exiles investigating the Energy Matrix.

Energy Matrix and Components

The area will look like this after defeating the Exiles. There is the Energy Matrix Puzzle, a long trail of Vines that go from one side of the building to the other, and a nearby Explosive Charge.

Locate an Energy Matrix Component

Examining the Energy Matrix puzzle, there are two Components at its base. Facing the building, turn around to find a third Component near some rocks.

Remove the Vines Trapping a Component

There is a set of Vines that go from one side of the building to the other. Use the Explosive Charge on a nearby ledge to set fire to the Vines, and it will clear across the building.

Find the Component Under the Vines

On the side of the building opposite the Explosive Charge, there is a Component. Burning the Vines will grant access to it.
