Deltarune first Sanctuary waterfall

Deltarune is full of secrets, with Chapter 4 featuring numerous Easter eggs, secret bosses, and special items to discover. Goldwidow is an item that, although relatively easy to obtain, is extremely difficult to find unless you’re willing to experiment and spend a lot of money.

How to obtain Goldwidow in Deltarune

You can obtain Goldwidow by donating 10,000 D$ to the Old Man’s Library waterfall. After meeting the Old Man and entering his study, you’ll find this waterfall by heading up the stairs, entering the first doorway, and turning left at the first intersection. Donating to this waterfall will let you claim rewards later in Chapter 4’s story, with Goldwidow being the reward for giving away 10,000 D$.

However, even though you can donate 10,000 D$ near the start of the chapter, you won’t be able to redeem the Goldwidow until much later. More specifically, you’ll need to solve the mystery of the giant piano and progress through to the second Sanctuary.

That said, make sure to donate your dark dollars first before progressing to the second Sanctuary. You can’t backtrack once you progress beyond this point. This first waterfall is also key to solving the Golden Piano puzzle and uncovering Chapter 4’s secret ending, so be sure to wrap everything up here before advancing the plot further.

Within the second Sanctuary, you’ll find a waterfall much like the one in the Old Man’s library. However, while that one is the spot where you donate, this one is where you claim items, depending on how much you donate. As long as you toss a little bit of money into this waterfall, you’ll receive a reward from the room’s treasure chest. It’s only when you donate a total of 10,000 D$ that you’ll receive the Goldwidow.

As you’ll quickly notice, 10,000 D$ is a lot of money, even if you’ve been actively battling enemies throughout your Deltarune playthrough. Here are a few tips for saving enough money to donate this amount before leaving the first Sanctuary:

  • Take part in every fight you encounter.
  • Find a room with enemies that’s near a save point. One example is the Bibliox in the Old Man’s library, but you can use any you find throughout this first Sanctuary.
  • Buy as few items as possible.

Ideally, by the time you reach the second Sanctuary, you should be close to 10,000 D$ so you’ll have minimal grinding later. Although you’ll spot enemies here and there, being able to obtain the Goldwidow as early as possible will help make the rest of Deltarune Chapter 4 much easier.
