Detailed WalkthroughEdit
Crown of LegendEdit
You must travel to Vardnknd Gallery, the second section of Runoff Caverns, a dungeon which will already be marked on your map. Once you enter this section of the dungeon, a wizard named Elberon will be struck by lightning, dying instantly. This quest will then begin, prompting you to loot Elberon's corpse for his strange Dwarven Crown.
Once you've obtained the Crown, you will be prompted to search for three masks which can be slotted into the headpiece. All three of these can be found within the dungeon in their corresponding areas, although they are designed to be well-hidden and therefore may take a bit of exploration to find.
Mask of AutumnEdit
The Dwarven Autumn Visage is located in the Autumn's Bells section of Runoff Caverns. Head east after entering the main chamber until you find the bridge over the ravine; after crossing the bridge, go north along the brick road and it will lead you straight to the entrance to the corridor that leads to the mask.
Mask of SpringEdit
The Dwarven Spring Visage is located in the Spring's Symphony section of Runoff Caverns. It is located at the end of a side hallway accessible through a door a short way into the chamber. However, the door is locked; the key is held by the Blooming Spriggan Matron boss at the end of the section. The hallway is partially filled with a green miasma, so the Dwarven Drone Fly you obtain in the room on your right just before you jump out of this section might prove useful.
Mask of WinterEdit
The Dwarven Winter Visage is found in the Winter's Chimes section of Runoff Caverns, in a hidden area that can be challenging to find. It is located in the second section, after you make the first jump. It is off the short hallway containing Frosted Dwarven Spiders, through a Dwarven gate that is raised above ground level. The gate must be reached by climbing up a bank of snow and a sloped Dwarven pipe (as pictured above). From the gate, you must dive into the water through a short underwater passage to access the section. Once you have navigated to the chamber containing the mask, you will be attacked by a powerful Frosted Dwarven Centurion which uses frost attacks.
Forging the CrownEdit
Take the crown, the masks, and at least 2 leather strips to any forge or anvil (found in the Dwarven section)

- The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 0.
- Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g.,
<Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game. - Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
- If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
- On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering
setstage DLCDwarvenPuzzleDungeonCrownQuest stage, wherestageis the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest usingresetquest DLCDwarvenPuzzleDungeonCrownQuest.
