Resonance Chapter 10 Parallel Paths Door Puzzle (Three Pedestals) Solution
Last verified: 2026-09-10 · Game version: Launch
The most complex light puzzle in Chapter 10 — four steps.
Quick Solution
- Light the waterfall-cave mirror: turn the middle wheel clockwise (not the small aiming wheels)
- Reflect to the door: waterfall mirror → mirror behind the cave → scaffold mirror → middle-platform mirror
- Reveal the blue icon: boost Faro up, he shines the light, you stand on the floor plate and use the orb on the green metal to reveal the hidden blue icon (Sophia notes it)
- Match 6 symbols: walk to the stele in the light, use the orb to reveal 6 symbols, move the red/green/blue crystals on the door to match
The 3 Crystals — Which Symbol Each One Matches
The door's three rings each carry a gem, and the warriors carved above the door hold the clues:
| Crystal | Door symbol | Ring + pedestal |
|---|---|---|
| Green | Snake / serpent | Inner ring (sword warrior) — left pedestal |
| Red | Upward arrow | Middle ring (bow and quiver) — middle pedestal |
| Blue | "Chair" (combined L + E shape) | Outer ring (spear) — right pedestal |
The three pedestals in front of the door rotate one ring each: left = inner ring (green), middle = middle ring (red), right = outer ring (blue).
Door Won't Open?
Confirm all six symbols are recorded — the last three come from the cave-lens chain (two lenses nudged left/right) and the Faro boost, so retrace step 2 and 3 if one is missing. Then check the rings read snake / upward arrow / chair, and that you're standing in the central light when splitting the beams.
How It Works
- Step 2's light path bounces mirror to mirror, finally reaching the three-pedestal door
- In step 3, after Faro shines you, stand on the plate and shine the green metal — only then does the blue icon appear
- In step 4, reveal the 6 symbols at the stele, then slide the door's crystals with the 3 pedestals
Why you're stuck: tripping on the step-2 reflection order or forgetting to stand on the plate in step 3. Follow 1→2→3→4, don't skip.
