The Dragon Age Veilguard Lighthouse statues puzzle is one you can complete by finding the match for each statue - so that there are three pairs - and turning them around so that they face each other. Once all three are staring into each others' eyes, it'll unlock a new area and the rewards within. If you're having trouble finding all the statues for the puzzle in Dragon Age The Veilguard, or just want to know where that reward is, we can help you out with our dedicated guide and walkthrough.

How to solve the Lighthouse statues puzzle in Dragon Age Veilguard

To solve the Lighthouse Statue puzzle in the hub area of Dragon Age Veilguard, you need to find three pairs of statues in the outside courtyard area and turn them to face each other. 

We've got a map showing the locations of each statue pair just below, as well as their intended line of sight marked, which you can correspond to the info below if you need further help.

  1. One statue is on the east side, south of the main church, the other statue up the dead end flight of stairs next to the main building.
  2. The West statue is behind the room that serves as Bellara's residence (though may be unoccupied if you do this puzzle early on), and the other statue is underneath Neve's room.
  3. These two statues are right next to each other - follow the staircase next to the main door North and curve around until you're above the main door. The two statues are beside each other with a small gap between them.

Get all three statues lined up, and Rook will comment that solving the puzzle "did something" as a wisp flies out of the statue. You need to follow this wisp into the Lighthouse itself to find your rewards but it's quite easy to miss, so where should you look?

If you solve the puzzle, it opens the door North of the main meeting room, allowing you to access a small room with several treasure chests and items in it. The full list of rewards is laid out below.

  • "Memories of a Duet" codex entry collectible
  • Approximately 20 Flawless Crystals
  • Approximately 400-600 Gold

Nothing mindblowing, but useful for early adventurers looking to gain an edge, or for those who plan to 100% complete the game and what to get all the rewards unlocked in the lighthouse hub zone. There are plenty of other puzzles to solve across the game too - notably the Dragon Age Veilguard Warden Vault quest, which offers much better rewards compared to this.

If gold is what you're after, you might also have some Dragon Age Veilguard valuables saved up by this point, which you can sell for a nicer sum of gold. Of course, if you want something more substantive in terms of gameplay guides, find out where you can get your Dragon Age Veilguard Deluxe Edition rewards here, or which is the best of the various Dragon Age Veilguard Factions
