Remnant 2 Water Harp Puzzle

Near the start of Yaesha, you likely noticed a large contraption that was not working and moved on. This is the water harp. After navigating through the rest of Yaesha, you will come across a switch just before unlocking the shortcut back to the checkpoint. Activate the switch which will power the water harp.

Next, check the book in the room with the checkpoint. Write down the notes to the song. There should be 2 lines to the song. Each of the symbols corresponds to a symbol on the harp except for the lines/dashes. These represent a rest/pause, so we will be skipping a not when they come up.

Now, head back to the water harp and interact with the note wheel. Clear out all existing pins by pressing X/Square on each of them. Once the previous song is cleared, scroll to the top of the wheel and begin entering the notes. For each symbol on your song, raise a pin under the corresponding symbol on the wheel. Then, rotate the wheel down. Repeat the process for each note in the song, remembering to skip a line where you see a line/dash/rest.
