Borderlands 3 Heck Hole Skull Puzzle: How to Solve the Colored Skull Puzzle

In Bloody Harvest: Descent into Heck, players can make their way to a room infested with Ratch. Once you've cleared the Ratch from the room you'll be able to focus on the four glowing pumpkins and the four accompanying colored skulls.

Position yourself at the bottom of the stairs. From left to right, note the colors of the eyes for each pumpkin. The pattern varies, but you should end up with four colors in a certain order. Note that colors can repeat.

Once you've learned the combination, head to the skulls in the back room and flip the switches in the pattern you recorded. For instance, if your pumpkins are blue, blue, orange and yellow from left to right, then you'll press the skull sin that same order.

If you've done it correctly, the wall opposite the skulls should crumble and open. If it doesn't work, try leaving the area and loading back in to a new pattern.

Inside you'll find a rare chest and plenty of other miscellaneous loot.
