If you happen to’ve explored round, you will have seemingly discovered a Sea Salt-Crusted Key, which lets you open a particular gate on Minacious Isle.
Our Sea Salt-Crusted Key information explains the place to seek out and use this mysterious key. You do want to finish Mona’s occasion portion, “Temple of the Star Latitudes,” earlier than you do that.
If you happen to’re caught on Mona’s model of Minacious Isle, you possibly can work together with a blue platform on the east aspect of the island to swap it again to the unique island.

When Minacious Isle is about again to the unique type, use the Waverider to sail to the western island. Soar into the opening. There needs to be a locked puzzle within the room you simply jumped into, however ignore that and climb into the opening within the wall. Defeat the digging Hilichurl and break the rocks it was digging to analyze a glowing spot. This gives you the Sea Salt-Crusted Key.

The place to make use of the Sea Salt-Crusted Key
When Minacious Isle is about in Mona’s type (with no islands to the west), head to the southern a part of the island to entry entrance to ruins.
Observe that there’s an entrance to ruins on the backside of the island, the place you beat up a digging Hilichurl for Mona’s story area, however that is the fallacious entrance. The doorway we’re speaking about is above the one with the digging Hilichurl.

As soon as inside, observe the trail and shortly flip the 2 switches within the space. One is on the left once you take the trail from the doorway and the opposite is on prime of a pile of rubble. Proper after flipping them, climb up by the ceiling gate that opened.
After climbing up, filter the Hilichurls and you should use the Sea Salt-Crusted Key on the gate.
Surprisingly sufficient, there’s one other Sea Salt-Crusted Key within the pot instantly in entrance of the gate. We haven’t discovered a use for this key but, however as soon as we do, we’ll replace this information.
The puzzles on this room are for the “Thus Was the Work Achieved in Useless” world quest line.
