How to Go Through the Passage and Reach the Balladeer in Deus Foundry

Defeat the first batch of Fatui

Upon entering the Deus Foundry domain, enter the metallic gate and defeat the Hydrogunner Legionnaire and Electrohammer Vanguard.

Ascend the factory

Proceed through the door and look to your left. There should be two sets of Four-Leaf Sigils that you can latch to in order to go up. Once you're at a dead end, climb up the ladder conveniently placed on the pipes to ascend further.

Fix the pattern on the main room

Once you've climbed up, head forward and open another metal gate to enter the main room. You will notice a glowing blue mark on the middle of the structure. You will have to go find the mechanisms to rotate the large disc panels in order to complete the pattern!

Here's how to complete the pattern:

Fixing the first pattern

1	Head to the right path facing the structure.
2	Wait for the lift to arrive and jump on it. This will carry you to the next location.
3	Once you see the next room, jump out and latch yourself to the Four-Leaf Saigil on a ledge.
4	Climb up the ladder on the pipe.
5	Clear out the Fatui beside the mechanism.
6	Rotate the mechanism twice until the panels light up.

Fixing the second pattern

1	Look behind you and go up the area that has a ladder pipe and sigil.
2	Head inside the metal gate and defeat the set of Fatui enemies. This will give you an Exquisite Chest!
3	Enter another gate and rotate the mechanism at least three times until the panels light up.

Fixing the third pattern

1	Go back to the room you were just in and enter a newly opened gate.
2	Interact the mechanism on the floor once and look up. The direction on the conveyor belt should look like the pattern above to the Common Chest on your right! You can return to the platform again by using the sigil.
3	Interact the mechanism once more like in the pattern above so the lift can move to the left.
4	Wait for the lift to carry you the left side.
5	Defeat the Fatui to unlock the Common Chest and access the mechanism.
6	Rotate the mechanism at least three times until the panels light up.

Fixing the fourth pattern

1	Enter the metal gate behind you.
2	Travel through the Four-Leaf Sigils.
3	Interact both mechanisms on the floor only once. This should allow the lift to enter through the path and carry you to the other side.
4	Enter the metal gate and defeat the next set of Fatui. This will also spawn an Exquisite Chest!
5	Rotate the mechanism at least six times until the panels light up. This should complete the whole pattern and give you access to the elevator in the main room!

Ride the main elevator

Once the pattern is complete, jump down and ride the elevator in the main room. This will take you up the room and complete the domain! Don't let your guard down just yet, as you will have to prepare for a battle against The Balladeer himself...

All Deus Foundry Treasure Chests

All Domain Treasure Chests

There are a total of four Treasure Chests in the Deus Foundry Domain.

1	You can find an Exquisite Chest inside a metal gate on the path to the second mechanism! A chest will appear after defeating the Fatui.
2	You can find a Common Chest on the path towards third mechanism. You will encounter conveyor belt, so rotate the mechanism nearby to the right which leads to the Common Chest
3	You will find another Common Chest on the path towards third mechanism. After using the Conveyor Belt, defeat the Fatui to unlock access to the chest
4	On your way to the final mechanism, you will find a metal gate! Defeat the Fatui inside to collect an Exquisite Chest.
