Dravakar Puzzle Overview
The rex infernus dravakar puzzle is the final gate in the Warden’s Blight Crossbow acquisition route described for Rex Infernus. It takes place in Dravakar’s Main Chamber after you have activated Pack-a-Punch, upgraded the Usurped Flame into Astral Fire, completed the beam puzzle in Nyxara’s Sanctuary, and collected three weapon parts from the Silent Area.
The pillar solution is not fixed. Symbol arrangements can change between matches, so copying a combination from another run may lead to an incorrect result. Instead, treat Dravakar’s dialogue and the writing on the wall as a set of directional clues.
The known symbols include:
| Symbol | Role in the Puzzle | What to Watch For |
|---|---|---|
| Star | One of the directional symbols | Check which symbol it follows or points toward |
| Moon | A relationship reference | Use it as the target when the clue names it |
| Runner | Part of the randomized arrangement | Match its relationship to the other symbols |
| Galaxy | A final symbol in the clue set | Confirm its position after applying all clues |
The puzzle is best approached as a logic problem rather than a memorization task. Each clue describes how one symbol should relate to another. For example, if Dravakar indicates that the Star follows the Moon, rotate the Star pillar so it points toward the Moon.
Randomized Clues
The arrangement can differ between matches, so solve the relationships shown during your own attempt.
Four Key Symbols
Watch for the Star, Moon, Runner, and Galaxy symbols when reading the chamber clues.
Weapon Gate
Correctly aligning the pillars opens the upper route to the Warden’s Blight Crossbow assembly point.
Do not rotate pillars randomly. Write down each relationship first, then apply the clues one at a time.
Reach the Dravakar Main Chamber
Before solving the pillars, complete the earlier objectives that make the chamber puzzle useful. The route begins with Pack-a-Punch activation and continues through the Astral Fire, Purple Crystal, Nyxara’s Sanctuary, and Silent Area objectives.
Use this progression order:
| Stage | Location | Required Action | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nexus Forge | Place the World Seed and deal with the Dread Skulls | Unlock the forge sequence |
| 2 | Caltheris Main Chamber | Defeat the second Dread Skull and survive the Titan attack | Prepare both forge braziers |
| 3 | Nexus Forge | Ignite both braziers and rotate the Crank Wheels | Activate Pack-a-Punch |
| 4 | Dravakar’s Main Chamber | Break the upper wall section and collect the Purple Crystal | Obtain the beam-puzzle item |
| 5 | Nyxara’s Sanctuary | Use Astral Fire to redirect the crystal beam | Open the hidden tree room |
| 6 | Silent Area | Collect one Warden’s Blight part per visit | Gather all three weapon parts |
| 7 | Dravakar’s Main Chamber | Align the symbol pillars | Open the Crossbow build location |
Start the map in the abandoned house and survive the opening holdout. When the phone rings, interact with it to trigger the next sequence and gain access to the outside route. The piano is also interactable and is associated with a later puzzle, so remember its location without treating it as part of the Dravakar pillar solution.
At the Nexus Forge, place the World Seed. Two red flying skulls called Dread Skulls will appear and move toward separate areas. Follow the first skull to seize the Usurped Flame, return it to the Brazier, and use the fireball attack to ignite the mechanism. Repeat the process for the second skull at Caltheris’s chamber.
Once the braziers are active, rotate the Crank Wheels. The forge lowers beneath the ground, a staircase forms around it, and Pack-a-Punch becomes available.
The pillar puzzle should be attempted only after collecting all three weapon parts. Entering early creates a wasted trip because the Crossbow cannot be assembled until the parts are ready.
Collect the Warden’s Blight Parts
The Dravakar puzzle requires three parts for the Warden’s Blight Crossbow. All three are located in the Silent Area, a dark forest accessed through the tree room in Nyxara’s Sanctuary.
First, upgrade the Usurped Flame. Use a grapple to grab one of the floating purple orbs and bring it to the Nexus Forge. Place the orb into the forge and activate the mechanism to create Astral Fire.
Next, return to Dravakar’s Main Chamber and look above the entrance from inside the room. Use a grapple or wall-jump to reach the upper platform. A breakable wall section on the right hides the Purple Crystal. Use a grenade or another explosive to open it, then collect the crystal.
Travel to Nyxara’s Sanctuary with Astral Fire. At the end of the temple, shoot the large eye with the upgraded flame. This begins the crystal beam puzzle. Rotate the purple crystals with the grapple so the beam travels from one crystal to the next. When the beam reaches the empty slot, place the Purple Crystal from Dravakar’s chamber into that position and continue redirecting the beam.
A hidden room opens after the beam reaches its destination. Interact with the tree roots and sacrifice some health to feed the tree. A fruit will grow, and eating it transports you to the Silent Area.
| Visit | Silent Area Location | Collection Method |
|---|---|---|
| First visit | Cave | Interact with the corpse near the far end of the forest |
| Second visit | Rock | Search the middle section for a corpse beside a rock |
| Third visit | Burned Cabin | Melee the glowing wooden plank near the corpse |
Only one part can be collected during each Silent Area visit. After finding a part, leave the area, advance to the next round, and return to the tree to enter again.
The third location has an extra interaction requirement. At the burned cabin, look for a glowing wooden plank near the body and melee it to reveal the final part. If a normal melee attack does not activate it, use Melee Macchiato.
Create Astral Fire
Grapple a floating purple orb, bring it to the Nexus Forge, place it into the forge, and activate the mechanism.
Recover the Purple Crystal
Return to Dravakar’s Main Chamber, reach the upper platform, break the wall section on the right, and collect the crystal.
Open the Silent Area
Take Astral Fire to Nyxara’s Sanctuary, shoot the large eye, solve the beam route, and feed the hidden tree with health.
Collect the Three Parts
Visit the Silent Area three times, collecting the Cave, Rock, and Burned Cabin parts in separate rounds.
You can collect only one Warden’s Blight part per visit. Plan for three entries and advance a round between each trip.
Solve the Dravakar Pillar Puzzle
Return to Dravakar’s Main Chamber after collecting all three Warden’s Blight parts. The puzzle uses several symbol pillars, including the Star, Moon, Runner, and Galaxy. Your objective is to rotate them until their facing directions satisfy the relationships described by Dravakar and the writing on the wall.
Use this method:
| Phase | Action | Verification |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inspect every pillar and identify its current symbol | Confirm the Star, Moon, Runner, and Galaxy |
| 2 | Listen to Dravakar’s riddle | Note every relationship between symbols |
| 3 | Read the wall writing | Use it to clarify the intended direction |
| 4 | Convert each clue into an instruction | Example: Star follows Moon |
| 5 | Rotate the pillars | Point each symbol toward the required reference |
| 6 | Check the chamber response | A correct solution opens the ceiling route |
A clue such as “the Star follows the Moon” means the Star pillar should be rotated so it points toward the Moon. Apply the same interpretation to the remaining relationships. Avoid solving one clue in isolation if the chamber gives several connected instructions; a symbol may serve as both a reference and a destination.
If the symbols appear to conflict, reset your reasoning rather than forcing the pillars into place. Check whether you misread a direction, confused the symbol names, or applied a clue to the wrong pillar.
Observe
Identify the current symbol on every pillar before interacting with anything.
Record
Write each clue as a short relationship, such as “Star points to Moon.”
Rotate
Apply the relationships systematically instead of turning pillars through trial and error.
Confirm
Watch for the chamber opening that signals a successful solution.
When all pillars face the correct directions, an opening appears above Dravakar’s chamber. Use the grapple to reach the newly opened ceiling route.
Assemble the Warden’s Blight Crossbow
After solving the pillars, grapple through the opening above Dravakar’s Main Chamber. The upper route leads to the Wonder Weapon build location. Interact with it after obtaining all three Warden’s Blight parts to assemble the Warden’s Blight Crossbow.
The complete route can be summarized as follows:
| Requirement | Status Needed |
|---|---|
| Pack-a-Punch | Activated at the Nexus Forge |
| Astral Fire | Created by upgrading the Usurped Flame |
| Purple Crystal | Recovered from Dravakar’s upper wall section |
| Beam puzzle | Completed in Nyxara’s Sanctuary |
| Tree room | Opened by redirecting the crystal beam |
| Silent Area parts | Three total, collected across separate visits |
| Pillar puzzle | Solved using the randomized chamber clues |
| Build location | Reached through the opened ceiling |
The Crossbow is described as the Wonder Weapon needed for the Main Quest. Keep it available for the later quest objectives, and avoid spending all of your resources before the chamber route is complete.
Rex Infernus also introduces the Titan Trap, which summons a massive force that pounds the ground, pulls nearby zombies into the attack, and destroys them. It can damage players who stand too close, so maintain distance when activating it.
The map’s new enemies also affect preparation. Deathspinners are fast enemies that can fire web projectiles to slow players. The Web Mother is an Elite enemy that can lunge, scream, cover areas in damaging webbing, and cocoon zombies.
Recommended preparation includes:
- Carry at least one explosive for the Purple Crystal wall.
- Keep a grapple route in mind before entering the Silent Area.
- Leave room in your health pool for the tree interaction.
- Prioritize Deathspinners when web effects limit movement.
- Avoid standing close to the Titan Trap during activation.
- Save useful equipment for the return to Dravakar’s chamber.
Dravakar Puzzle Checklist:
- Activate Pack-a-Punch at the Nexus Forge
- Create Astral Fire and recover the Purple Crystal
- Complete the Nyxara’s Sanctuary beam puzzle
- Collect the Cave, Rock, and Burned Cabin weapon parts
- Solve the randomized pillars and assemble the Warden’s Blight Crossbow
The safest approach is to prepare the weapon parts first, solve the chamber logic second, and use the opened ceiling route only after confirming every requirement.

FAQ
Q: Is the Rex Infernus Dravakar puzzle randomized?
Yes. The symbol arrangement and solution can differ between matches. Use Dravakar’s clues and the writing on the wall during your own run instead of copying a universal combination.
Q: Which symbols are used in the Dravakar puzzle?
The known symbol set includes the Star, Moon, Runner, and Galaxy. Identify each pillar and connect the symbols according to the chamber clues.
Q: What do I need before solving the pillar puzzle?
Collect all three Warden’s Blight parts from the Silent Area first. You should also have completed the earlier forge, Astral Fire, Purple Crystal, and Nyxara’s Sanctuary objectives.
Q: What happens after the Dravakar puzzle is solved?
An opening appears above Dravakar’s Main Chamber. Grapple through it to reach the Warden’s Blight Crossbow build location, then interact with the station once all three parts are collected.
A solution from another run may not work in yours. The reliable answer is the relationship shown by the current chamber’s dialogue and wall writing.
