The Feldcroft stone arrow puzzle is located southwest of Rockwood Castle in the Feldcroft region, just below Troll Lair. Once you’ve entered the vault, you’ll follow the path until you find yourself inside a darkened room with several arrow blocks. 

How to solve the Feldcroft treasure vault stone arrow puzzle

To solve the Feldcroft treasure vault stone arrow puzzle, which opens the door to the treasure, you need to move two stone blocks to the stone structure on the right side of the room. The stone arrow blocks need to match the pattern of the stone structure on the left side of the room.

The first block to move’s located at the centre of the room. Cast Windgardium Leviosa on it and move it so the arrow points upwards. Then, place it in the empty spot in the upper left corner.

The second block’s located on top of the completed stone structure on the left side of the room. Cast Windgardium Leviosa on this block, move it across the room, and place it in the empty spot of the right stone structure with the arrow pointing to the right.

Tip:

If you’re having trouble seeing the blocks in the cave for this puzzle, you can also cast Revelio; this will illuminate the blocks, making them easier to find.

Once you’ve placed both stone arrow blocks in the correct positions, the door on the right will open to reveal a chest where you can claim your random treasure. I got a Neapolitan Striped Scarf. However, you may get something completely different, like a hat or a face item.

Why’s the treasure door not opening?

The Feldcroft treasure vault tone arrow puzzle can be finicky. Some players have experienced issues where the solution may not be recognized even if the blocks point in the correct direction. To stop this issue from happening, manually roll the blocks around a few times before setting them in the correct position.

If you’re unsure how to do this, you can use Q or E to rotate the block on the PC. If you’re a console player, you can use the D-Pad on your controller to turn the blocks.

This issue happened to me, and I thought I’d solved the puzzle incorrectly because the door wasn’t opening, but that wasn’t the case. Rolling blocks before you set them in place seems to fix this issue. It’s not ideal, and it can be a little troublesome to do, but it works.
