This Shrine of Depths sits on top of a cliff to the west of Svetloledovka. It's the easiest of the Version 7.0 Shrines of Depths to find, with no puzzles or quest progress required.

To reach the Flamefeather Valley Shrine of Depths, you first need to unlock Flamefeather Valley by progressing the World Quest "In the Dwelling of Life." The shrine is on the valley's first layer, so once you reach the Flamefeather Valley underground map, follow the cliffside and you'll find it.
3. Southwest of House of Hesperides

The Shrine of Depths southwest of the House of Hesperides is hard to reach because of a blizzard unless you progress the World Quest "Hesperides of Love and Hate." Once you clear the early part of the quest up to "Through the Gates of Ivory," you can head outside from the Teleport Waypoint on the house's 3rd floor.
4. Pilgrimage to the Sacred Gorge

![]() | ![]() |
Pilgrimage to the Sacred Gorge is located in the northeastern part of Snezhnaya. The Shrine of Depths itself stands alone out in the open and is easy to spot, but the route to get there is a little confusing. If you haven't unlocked the area yet, follow the directions below and unlock the Statue of The Seven.
How to Reach the Northeast Area

Follow the railway tracks near the Korolevskiy Theater on the southeast side of Snezhnayagrad, then take the northern branch at the junction to reach the area with the Statue of The Seven. After unlocking the Statue of The Seven, head a short way south to find the Shrine of Depths.
How to Get and Use Shrine of Depths Keys

| Meeting Point |
![]() |
Offer Cryoculi to the Statue of The Seven and Cryo Sigils to the Meeting Point to raise their levels, and you'll receive Shrine of Depths Keys as level rewards. The other rewards are worth getting too, so make sure to explore and level them up.
Use a Key by Selecting "Open" at the Shrine

Select "Open" in front of a Shrine of Depths and use a key to unlock it. There's a Chest inside, so don't forget to claim your rewards.
Chests Do Not Respawn

Shrine of Depths Chests have never respawned in the past, so the Snezhnaya Shrine of Depths Chests likely won't respawn either. Since you can only get them once, be careful with how you handle the Artifacts and other items inside.
