The players of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will have to solve many puzzles as they progress with the game and its storyline. The Misko’s Treasure is a side quest arc requiring the players to solve three puzzles to acquire certain rewards.
You must find and enter the Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave during the side quest Pirate Manuscript. The cave is hard to find, and opening it requires players to solve a riddle.
Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave Location
The Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave is located in the East Necluda region, on the coast of the Necluda Sea near Cape Cales. The coordinates of the cave are 3650, -3211, -0006. The nearest fast-travel point to the cave is the Bamitok Shrine. The players can head east from the Shrine, crossing the mountains and reaching the Cape Cales Cliff near 3625, -3234. 0167. From the cliff, jump and paraglide to the water, and you will find the entrance to the cave. There is another route to the cave, which is by riding the Necluda Sea. This will take you directly inside the cave, and you won't have to cross mountains or glide.
Completing Misko’s Treasure: Pirate Manuscript
After reaching the gate, you will notice a wooden board floating on the water and a locked gate in front of you. Stand on the wooden board in front of the gate and whistle using the down button on your D-pad to open the gate. This solution is referred to in the riddle “A forgotten pirate cavern lurks at the foot of Cape Cales, overlooking the Necluda Sea. The short, shrill song of wind through lips will open the way to my treasure.” Once the gate has opened, you can then head on inside.
The cave is underwater, so you must swim or build a boat using the wooden board you are standing on. It is advised to build a boat to make the quest much easier for you. To create the boat, you must attach a Zonai Fan and a Steering Stick to the wooden board. Ride the boat and head towards the ship inside the cave. Once you are below the ship, use your Ascend ability to enter the ship. Enter the ship and defeat the enemies. Focus on dealing damage on the enemy’s head, as all are skeleton-type monsters.
You will find a chest behind the boxes placed around the pillar. Open the chest, and you will get the Tingle’s Tights as your reward. From there, climb to the top of the boat using the ladder. On top of the ladder, you will find another chest giving you the Savage Lynel Bow. You can also find a Bubbul Frog inside the cave and get a Bubbul Gem after killing it.
