Blades of Chaos Runic Attack—Rage of Titans, Leviathan Axe Runic Attack—Glaive Storm

High Water: Buri’s Storeroom is a small island just south of Stone Falls, but the beach is fully covered until the second water drop.

Low Water: Right away, you spot a runic door with three bells nearby, though one sits behind a gate. Run under the open gate and kill the Draugr that show up. Be careful here as a high-level Traveler or Traveler Champion shows up later in the game. Lure the Draugr toward the boat and take them out before disturbing the Traveler. Move to the far end of the trail, look up to the right, and shoot a Shock Arrow at the Shatter Crystal. This unlocks a wheel at the top of the steps.

Before heading up there, search the right side of the path to find a Legendary Chest and treasure. Use your Blades of Chaos to bust through the Bramble and loot the Blades of Chaos Runic Attack.

Pass back through the open gate, run left up the steps, and interact with the wheel until the gap in the waterwheel lines up with the water. This allows you to paddle your boat through the opening and onto the eastern beach.

Run west and use the chain on the left to close the gate and reveal the rune. Take the boat back to the western beach and quickly hit all three rune bells with your axe to unlock the storeroom door. Move inside, descend the steps, and loot the Legendary Chest (Leviathan Axe Runic Attack). Paths to the left and right both lead to common chests.
