Lateral Thinker is an achievement added by the Trespasser DLC for Dragon Age: Inquisition. This achievement can be obtained by solving four puzzles and unlocking the corresponding caches that are being watched over by ancient elven statues.
Elven Mountain Ruins
“The Dread Wolf keeps its gaze on the one light that illuminates the way forward.”
Note that while the other three puzzles take you to out of the way areas or are not required to progress, this is the only one that is a part of the main path and must be completed.
Head towards the statue of Fen'Harel located inside the 'Forgotten Sanctuary'. Run past the statue towards the outdoor balcony and pick up a veilfire torch. Come back inside and head towards the mural that the statue of Fen'Harel is facing. Light the second from the left veilfire brazier on the mural that the statue is gazing upon. Head back to the statue and press the button located between the paws. A loot box will appear as the statue is repositioning itself. Loot the box to claim your reward:
Deep Roads
“Where the Dread Wolf's gaze blazes, paths are brought to light.”
1. Get the Anchor Blast upgrade for the Anchor Discharge in the Shattered Library, then head back to the now half-submerged Deep Roads section via the respective eluvian. Use the upgraded ability near a collapsed entrance surrounded by casks with gaatlok to clear the way and enter the mirror (the first room after descending the Grand Stairway). You will find yourself in the hidden section of the Deep Roads called "Unknown Ruin".
2. Find the line of tiles leading from the statue of Fen'Harel to the mural. Put one character on the tile closest to the wolf and tell them to Hold Position. Use another character to press the button on the wolf statue. The tiles will move up in the air, forming a path. Walk it to light the veilfire. Claim your reward:
3. (Alternative Method) With the veilfire torch in hand, walk to the tiles on the floor. Move the camera away from the wolf. When you turn the camera back to the wolf, it should be staring at the direction of the tiles with glowing eyes. Without turning the camera away from the wolf, move to the back of the wolf to press the button. The tiles will rise to form a pathway. Climb the path to light the veilfire. Claim your reward:
Shattered Library
“When the Dread Wolf's gaze is bright, light burns in a ring of the dead.”
1. While in the Scholar's Retreat section of the Shattered Library, leave at least one character near the eluvian that leads back to the Broken Tower and direct the character to hold position. Switch back to the Inquisitor to use the invincibility provided by the Anchor Discharge to move safely through the violet flames to reach the statue of the Dread Wolf on the upper level of the island. Press the button at the statue and quickly switch back to the character waiting to enter the eluvian.
2. Next run down to the lower level of the Broken Tower. The braziers held by the statues of the dead will be burning. Light a torch and head back to the Scholar's Retreat. Light the veilfire next to the statue of the Dread Wolf to claim your reward:
The Darvaarad
“One sees the hunter, one flees from it, one hunts it in turn, one outwits them all.”
Head towards the Research Tower located in the Darvaarad's courtyard. Acquire a veilfire torch to light the braziers in the tower in the following order. First use the veilfire to light the brazier located on the bottom of the tower next to the statue of an owl. Next head back to the top of the tower and use the veilfire to light the brazier near the halla statue, followed by the brazier next to the dragon statue. Last ascend back to the bottom floor to claim the reward waiting between the paws of the large Dread wolf statue:
Bugs
- While completing the puzzle in the Shattered Library the sequence allows for approximately 30 secs for the torch to be lit. If process takes longer than 30 seconds there is a possibility the quest cannot be completed. On PC if mods are installed, disabling the mods will reduce load times. Lowering graphic settings can also minimize load times.
