=== Opening Chests with The Sand Seer's Advice ===
{{Quote|source=Sand Seer's Notebook|
===== Overview =====
With some help from [[Gremix]], the local blacksmith-type, I've managed to get this vault opened and examined the mechanism.
4. Practice! I've set up this vault to let me practice my lockbreaking skill. Pity I don't have time to actually get much practicing in...

You don't need any hints when using this guessing/logic technique.
1. Check combinations of 2 symbols until you have found 4 hits or checked all symbols. Use an AABB pattern. If you found the hints in the dungeon, you only have to check those 6 symbols instead of 12. Tries 1-6 in the image.
1a. If after 6 tries you did not find 4 hits, one of the tries that shows 2 hits could be 3 or 4 hits. You will have to test that separately.
2. Now you have up to 6 symbols that could be part of the solution, tries 2, 4 and 6 in the image. Eliminate those using one of the symbols that does not match.
2a. Try 7 uses one symbol from try 1 which is no match and one symbol from try 2 which could be a match. Try 7 is no match so you know that the other symbol from try 2 is a match!
2b. Repeat this for the symbol from try 6 (in try 8, no match so the other symbol from try 6 is a match) and other symbols.
3. Use logic: you now know the C symbol from try 2 is correct and in slot 1 or 2, also the hourglass symbol from try 6 is correct in slot 1 or 2. That means one of the runes in slot 3 or 4 is already correct and the other will be from try 4 but slot 1 or 2.
3a. Put all the symbols in place, both of those in slots 1, 2 and 3, 4. Try 9 in the image.
3b. It was not correct, the result is (2, 2) so we have to switch 1, 2 or 3, 4 but not between those groups. Try 10 in the image.
3c. Try 10 was not correct but (0, 4) means you can switch 1, 2 and 3, 4 and be finished. Final solution at the top, ready to open the vault.
