Are you trying to solve the Hunter Ancient Vault buttons puzzle in Enshrouded? This guide will go through everything you need to know.
Other than the Hunter NPC, there’s also a locked door where you need to push three buttons to unlock it. Thankfully, these buttons are all near the door, and unlocking it will grant you access to a treasure chest.
Let’s go through all button locations and everything you need to know about the vault and its hidden treasures (yes, there’s more than one!).
Ancient Vault Hunter Location

To find the Ancient Vault – Hunter in Enshrouded, start from the Springlands Ancient Spire on the west side of the map and glide straight east.
You won’t be able to glide all the way to the vault. The glider will get you halfway there, and you’ll need to walk the rest of the distance past the tower. Just keep heading east, and you’ll find it.
How to Find Hunter NPC
Head inside the vault, pass the laser ball traps and grapple across the lava pit. Head up the left stairs and check the door that opens up on your right (if you took the right stairs, the door will be on your left).
Inside that door and on the bottom left side, you’ll find Athelan Skree, The Hunter, and be able to release him.
Also, while you’re in this room where you found the Hunter, head up and use your grapple to access a hidden room. Climb up, go all the way around by dropping down, and open the small door on your right to find a hidden treasure chest.
How to Find All Hunter Vault Buttons & Unlock the Secret Door
After heading into the vault and passing by the laser ball traps, head up the stairs, and you’ll see a locked door on your left with three symbols above it. To unlock that door, you must find three buttons. Let’s go through all their locations:
- Button #1: On the right of the main stairs – Check on the other side of the stairs you just climbed, and you’ll see it glowing on a pillar. Shoot it with an arrow or spell.
- Button #2: Behind the pillar on switch #1, open the door on the left, and you’ll see the second switch on the right side of the wall.
- Button #3: Above the main entrance to the Vault – Check behind you, towards the main entrance of the vault, and you’ll see the last switch right above the door. To access it, use the grapple on the ceiling and climb the wall on the right side.
And that’s all! Now you’re able to open the door and get the valuable treasure chest that’s behind it.
Wrapping up
To summarize, this is everything you need to know about the Hunter Ancient vault in Enshrouded. There are two treasure chests inside, as well as the Hunter NPC.
The first chest requires pushing three buttons to unlock the door near the entrance, while the second chest is at the top of the vault and can be accessed by using the grappling hook.
