Resonance Chapter 5 Desolation It Wrought — Puzzles & Collectibles
Last verified: 2026-09-10 · Game version: Launch
Chapter 5 Desolation It Wrought is the most collectible-dense chapter (40 items). Its core is the "four-symbol trials" — four doors, each leading to a trial, and once you've inserted all the symbols there's no turning back, so clear every collectible in order before moving on.

Route (4 sub-chapters)
- Row as one — door puzzle
- Battle grounds — enemy camp (collectible-dense)
- The four symbols — ⚠️ the chapter's core: four trial doors
- Live up to his name — no collectibles
⚠️ Four-Symbol Trials (key warning)
The central pedestal in the main room shows 4 sockets matching 4 doors (axe, dice, three-line O, line O). Each door can't be freely backtracked once entered. We recommend this order: clear the "axe" dead end for its points first, then dice door → three-line O door → line O door, collecting everything in each before inserting its symbol.
Puzzle Solutions
- Door puzzle (dice door · scarab): 5 symbols on the floor hint the jump order (dot-kraken-dot-flower-kraken); a wrong jump kills you.
- Statue door puzzle: stand on the floor plate lit by the roof beam and use the orb's three light colors to match the gems on the door (red = left statue helmet / green = middle / blue = right statue hand), then sprint-jump over the spikes.
- Mirror room (line O door): red = shine the right-most mirror then the right pillar; blue = left mirror → back-bottom mirror → middle mirror → left pillar; green = back-right mirror → back of pillar.
Blade Location
- Greek Sword: in the dice-door trial area, at the camp's skeleton pillar — stand on the matching floor plate and align the three light colors to the bull pillar to open the tomb and claim the sword. Technique "Spinning Slash": criticals become a 360° whirlwind, great for crowds.
Artefact Locations
- Griffin Figurine (Past): the enemy camp on the battlefield, past the wooden rubble.
- Dante's Inferno Canto XII (Present): the enemy camp below the ladder, between two white tents.
- Scarab Amulet (Past): the spike-platform area of the dice door, in the back-left corner after following the jump order.
- Condottiero Stamp (Present): beside the Greek Sword tomb, on the rocks of the right path by the bull pillar.
- Ceremonial Blade (Past): left of the bull pillar, past the small waterfall, at the dead end by the water.
