Crimson Desert Abyss Without Balance – How To Solve The Ethereal Pathway Abyss Puzzle

The Crimson Desert Abyss Without Balance quest requires you to complete a tricky puzzle. To solve the Ethereal Pathway Abyss Puzzle, you need to use Axiom Force and Force Palm abilities.

Let’s see what you must do to complete this early-game challenge!

How to Complete the Crimson Desert Abyss Without Balance Puzzle and Quest

To complete the Abyss Without Balance quest, you must:

• Complete a parkour section.
• Remove the wall blocking the wall.
• Synthesize the Abyss Cell.

How to Cross the Sky Bridge Gate – The Parkour Section

Use Axiom Force on the device and rotate until it starts to glow.

Let go and wait for the platforms to align. From here on, you will follow a linear path, leading to the Ethereal Pathway Abyss Puzzle area. The next section is a parkour challenge. Jump from platform to platform using Precision Jump to reach the floating island. Don’t forget that you cannot use Precision Jump while holding the weapon.

Climb the structure and complete another parkour section. Reach the island and jump on the moving platforms that will take you to the teleporter. After completing another parkour section, you will arrive at the puzzle area.

How to Complete the Ethereal Pathway Abyss Puzzle

Follow the quest instructions and stand on the platform until it activates.

Use Axiom Force to grab the power core on the right. Notice that you can pull/push, rotate, and move the core. Use these controls to position the core on top of the lantern on the right. Release it and jump down.

Press the Observe button and hold it to learn a new ability, Force Palm.

Grab the floating mechanism and place it on the wall. Now, you need to secure it in place using the new ability. Get close to the wall and charge Force Palm. Release while aiming at the mechanism to lock its position. If you have done everything correctly, a large circular mechanism will activate.

Climb up and position yourself in the middle of the circle. Charge Force Palm and release it right in the middle. You will be knocked back, as the circular mechanism activates once again. Take the Abyss artifact and watch the cutscene that ends the Crimson Desert Abyss Without Balance puzzle and quest.
