How to Get the Bottomless Pot in Dragon Quest 3 Remake

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours logged into various RPGs under my belt, I can confidently say that the latest addition to my gaming library, Dragon Quest 3 Remake, has been an absolute joy so far. The game’s blend of old-school charm and modern updates is truly a testament to the series’ enduring appeal.

In the remade version of Dragon Quest 3, once players obtain the ‘Ship’, the primary objective becomes finding the ‘Ultimate Key’. This mystical artifact can open every door within the game world and initiate your journey to gather the six orbs. But, before you can obtain the key, you must first secure the ‘Bottomless Pot’. Although hints about its location are scattered across the game world, finding it can be quite challenging. In this guide, we’ll walk you through solving the Edina Castle rock puzzle, which is the final step to acquiring the Bottomless Pot in Dragon Quest 3 Remake.

How to Find and Enter Edina Castle in Dragon Quest 3 Remake

After procuring the ship by delivering Black Pepper to the King of Portugal, you’ll gain independence to traverse the vast oceans. Although various opportunities await you once freed, your best course might be to secure the Supreme Key. Unfortunately, the unknown lies at every location you visit, regardless of whether or not you have quest indicators enabled.

To locate Edina Castle, your journey begins at Skyfell Tower, the spot where you encountered Robbin ‘Ood early in the game. Once you acquire a ship, it’s usually located near any fast-travel point. In this instance, it’s situated in the water to the west of the tower. Board the ship and set sail northwest. If your quest markers are activated, there should be a marker on the nearby island to guide you.

either work with Mages to decipher the Fade enchantment or acquire some Fading Jenny. Once you have unlocked the Fade charm, simply invoke it and proceed past the guard.

If you lack the Fade spell, you should instead utilize the Fading Jenny item to achieve invisibility. To acquire this item, set sail southwest from your initial island. Over time, you’ll arrive at a small island that holds the town of Lanson. During daylight hours, there’s a small Item Shop tent where you can purchase Fading Jenny for 300 gold coins. Once acquired, make your way back to Edina.

How to Solve the Edina Rock Puzzle in Dragon Quest 3 Remake

Upon entering the main castle, make your way towards the set of stairs on the left side as soon as you come in. A nun is stationed at a corner to help guide you correctly. At the foot of these stairs, you’ll encounter the Edina Castle rock puzzle.

In case you find yourself at a dead end with the puzzle, you have the option to step outside and restart it.

The puzzle isn’t overly complicated, but it does involve multiple stages. To uncover the answer, I recommend checking out the provided video. We’ll also outline the steps for you later on:

Step 1: Push the left rock up/north one square, and the middle rock one square to the right/east.
Step 2: Go around the bottom of the left water square, then push the left rock two squares to the right/east, so it’s lined up with the path to the goal. Be careful! It’s easy to accidentally push the rock too far.
Step 3: Push the left rock to the goal.
Step 4: Go all the way around the bottom, and push the right rock one square down/south.
Step 5: Push the middle rock three squares to the left/west, lined up with the water square. It will now be in the same position as the left rock’s starting position.
Step 6: Just as you did with the left rock, push it one square to the north, then go around the bottom of the left water square and push the rock two squares to the east. Finally, push it north to the goal.
Step 7: Go back around the bottom of the center blocks, and push the final rock north one square. Then go to the right of the square and push it four squares west, so it is also in the same position as the left rock’s starting position.
Final Step: Push the final rock one square to the north, then go around the bottom of the left water square and push the rock two squares to the east. Finally, push the rock north into the final goal spot.
