Game Guide by Ragib Rawnak on Mar 30, 2026

To learn the Wind Level One ability in Crimson Desert, your destination is the Spire of Clockwork. Typically, you'll find yourself here after finishing the first witch quest. That quest tends to pop up around Chapter Five of the main story.

Once you arrive, head inside the tower. You will see a switch on the floor; simply jump on it to trigger the mechanism.

After that, move up to the second set of gears and flip the next switch downward. This path leads you to a small window at the top of the tower where you can take an elevator to reach the summit.

Entering the Abyss and Riddle Square

Most elemental powers like Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Ice require you to enter the Abyss through a specific spire. After reaching the top of the Clockwork Tower, you will load into a challenge area called Riddle Square in Crimson Desert.

To start the trial, use your Axiom on the button in front of you. This begins a maneuverability course where you must fly through blue rings and use fans to keep your stamina high.

It is best to have at least six to eight bars of stamina before attempting this, as the Abyss can be difficult to navigate without enough energy.

Completing the Course

Follow the hoops and stay steady as you glide through the air. You do not need a perfect run to succeed, so do not worry if you miss a ring or make a small mistake.

Be careful when using your dash, as the momentum can cause you to fly past your target if you are going too fast in Crimson Desert.

Head towards the fans, then navigate the laser grid at the end of the path with caution. Once you cross the finish line, engage with the last panel to unlock your new ability. This rapid-fire sequence will get you going, primed to unleash your new elemental skill in Pywel.
