/way #46 60.0 43.0 Enigma Machine
Puzzle 7: Owl of the Watchers
Purchase the Fledgling Warden Owl battle pet from Marin Bladewing (The Wardens Emissary) or the Auction House, then make your way to the Isle of the Watchers in Aszuna.
On the Isle of the Watchers there are a total of 9 Owl of the Watchers, 3 of which can be activated at any given moment.
/way #630 44.2 72.4
/way #630 40.6 73.1
/way #630 40.5 75.2
/way #630 37.1 82.2
/way #630 43.2 85.3
/way #630 43.6 87.5
/way #630 46.0 84.1
/way #630 47.5 84.7
/way #630 50.4 91.7
Summon your Fledgling Warden Owl and interact with the statues until one activates. You'll need to interact with multiple statues, as the ones that can activate rotate.
Stand close to the statue and wait until your Fledgling Warden Owl flies in a circle, lights up with the statue's color, and triggers the magnifying glass. If that doesn't happen, try waiting a little longer or resummoning your pet.
After triggering all four colors, your Fledgling Warden Owl will gain a light orb, indicating that this step of the puzzle is complete.
- Head into the Vault of the Wardens and clear the dungeon on any difficulty.
- Take Elune's Light from the Glowing Sentry on Cordana Felsong's platform.
- If the light disappears, you can retake it from the Glowing Sentry near the elevator.
- Head back to the start of the dungeon and enter the secret room before Tirathon Saltheril.
- Summon your Fledgling Warden Owl and loot the Sentry Statue.
Place the Sentry Statue on the platform in the Vault of Mirrors (Glazer's room) and interact with it to start the final puzzle.
Interacting with a statue causes it to disappear (lowering it down) and flips four other statues (raising or lowering them in the room). The goal of this puzzle is to make all the statues disappear. Use the Puzzle Solver to map out the statue interactions and find a solution.
Once the puzzle is complete, loot Warden's Mirror from the Treasure of the Wardens. If the chest is not visible, activate your Torch of Pyrreth and resummon your Fledgling Warden Owl.
Puzzle 8: Enigma Machine
Insert the Warden's Mirror into the Enigma Machine, then click "BEGIN" to activate the Plates and "SUBMIT" to summon Rats. To complete this puzzle, you have to release seven locked mechanisms by moving statues on specific plates.
/way #46 60.0 43.0 Enigma Machine
1. Locate and kill all Rats through the instance, counting them with the Rat Kill Tracker WeakAura.
Make sure to check the entire area, from the entrance of the catacombs to the felcycle room. Use the following macro to locate Rats easily:
/target Rat
/run SetRaidTarget("target", 8)
/cleartarget [help]
/stopmacro [noexists][dead]
/ping [@target]
2. Kill any Catacombs Rats you find along the way since they can interfere by stepping on plates.
3. Move the correct number of statues onto the indicated plates.
Based on the number of Rats killed and the current Lock, move the correct number of statues onto the indicated plate, as shown in the WeakAura or the table above.
Example: If you counted 8 Rats for Lock 1, then you would have to move 2 Statues on Plate 1.
4. Return to the Enigma Machine and click "SUBMIT" to validate your solution.
If the solution is correct, the message "You hear a mechanism unlock." will appear in chat. Remove the statues from the Plate and proceed to the next Lock from Step 1.
If the solution is incorrect, you'll have to restart from Lock 1. Since Rats don't despawn after pressing "SUBMIT", any miscount could leave extra Rats alive, so make sure to clear all of them.
Once all seven mechanisms are unlocked, the message "A great lock has been released." will appear in chat, indicating that the puzzle has been solved.
Puzzle 9
Enter the cave at Faerin's Advance in Azj-Kahet and head to the wall shown in the screenshot below. Climb up to the hole at the top (indicated by the arrow) and go through it.
