Crimson Desert Sunrise Plains puzzle solution
To solve the Sunrise Plains puzzle you need to turn all of the statues so they’re facing inwards towards the center column. Now, this sounds a tad easier than it is because when you move one statue, another will automatically start moving with it.
To solve the puzzle, face the statues with your back towards Grace Manor (which is to the north of the statues), this also means your back is towards the gap in the thorns you pass through to reach the puzzle.
Then, interact with the statue closest to you on the left (as marked in the image below). Walk up behind them and use the indicated prompt to inspect them. Once you’re holding the statue, continue to turn it until its facing the center. You’ll hear a clicking sound when it’s in the right place.
You should also notice that the statue that’s diagonally across from you has turned inwards too. This now leaves only the other two statues to sort out.
Now, from the statue you’re currently with, turn to your right and head to the statue here. Again, interact with it and then turn it until it’s facing the center. The statue diagonally across from this will also move.
Once everything is in place, the statues will lock in and you’ll be able to grab your reward – an Abyss Cresset.
