Crimson Desert All Spires Locations & Solutions

Crimson Desert has 8 Spire Locations. Finding and solving all Spires is needed for the Lands Meet the Sky (Spires) Challenges and unlocks the Conqueror of Spires trophy & achievement. Each Spire counts as one Challenge.

They require significant story progress to access. You complete several of them as part of main story quests, or receive the keys from main quest rewards. So even though they can all be reached in the open world at any time, they can’t actually be completed until much later in the game. It’s best to play through the story first to gain access to all Spires.

The Spires are puzzle towers. They require solving puzzles in the tower to reach the top floor where you enter an Abyss Gate (teleporter). These are also needed to access some of the 40 “The Abyss (Restoration)” challenges.

Jijeong Temple Pagoda

Location: Serpent Marsh (Island between Demeniss and Delesyia)
Solution: Automatically completed as part of story Chapter 9 – Main Quest: Face the Inner Self (complete the Subchapter “Six Pensive Statues and the Evil Spirit” in Chapter 9). Unlike other Spires, this one doesn’t have puzzles, you simply climb to it as part of the Chapter 9 questline. After completing the other quests of the Subchapter “Six Pensive Statues and the Evil Spirit”, the Temple Pagoda will open up and you have to climb to it for a story objective, it’s high up on a mountain. Then you just enter the Abyss on the ground floor of the tower and it autocompletes. The tower will be closed prior to the “Face the Inner Self” main quest. Also, this one is called a “Temple” rather than “Spire” and has a different map icon, but it does count as 1 of the 8 Spires in the Challenges menu.
