The puzzle starts at the front of the tower, where the locked door sits between two stone dials.

First, make the area visible enough by adding floor-standing torch to see the markings clearly, since the tower entrance can be hard to read.

The important detail is that the chest is not outside the tower; it is reached after opening the door and moving through the interior.

Chest location at Stargazer

The chest is found inside the tower after the puzzle door opens. You do not need to search the swamp or climb elsewhere around the structure once the dials are set correctly.

Common mistakes to avoid

The most common mistake is trying to guess the dial combination instead of checking the symbols above the plates. The answer is already built into the tower, so the puzzle is really a matching exercise.

Another mistake is overlooking the upper wall panels because the entrance is dark and the swamp can make visibility worse. Lighting the area or angling the camera upward makes the symbols easier to read.

After the chest is opened, the Stargazer Tower point of interest is completed. That makes the puzzle one of the quicker Windrose swamp locations once you know the symbol-matching trick.
