The Golden Vaulting Table is a treasure in Pikmin 4. It is a gold ingot. According to the writing on it, it weighs one kilogram (about 2.2 pounds).

Collecting the treasure

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

You can find the treasure in Primordial Thicket. It is behind some Iron Bars and requires 1000 Pikmin to carry, the carrying capacity of 100 Purple Pikmin. Due to the area being blocked by bars and the ledge to it being too high to jump on, Oatchi is unable to help you carry it back, so you must grow the 100 Purple Pikmin to bring it back to the S.S. Beagle. Once the treasure has been brought down from the ledge, only then Oatchi can help you bring the treasure back to the S.S. Beagle

Weight

The label on this object says that the Golden Vaulting Table weighs 1 kilogram; this discovery, like with the Doomsday Apparatus, has lead to a lot of confusion. Although creating a formula from this would allow easy conversion between the in-game weight units and real-world units, the theory breaks down when real-world objects are weighed and compared to the weights predicted. For example, the Joy-Cons weights 10 units each, while actual Joy-Cons weigh as much as 48 or 52 grams, respectively.

Notes

Schnauz's Notes

This shiny table is used in a ceremony meant to bring good luck with money. It works like this: jump over the table once, and make a profit. Jump over it twice, and make a fortune. Jump over it thrice, and the sky opens and money rains down on you. Or so one hopes, anyway.

Olimar's Notes

Apparently if you can jump over this, you'll be blessed with great wealth. I'm not the superstitious type, but I'm tempted to give it a try. I could use the extra cash. The only things standing in my way are my poor middle-aged hip joints...

Louie's Notes

I bet this would bring in the big bucks.

Trivia

  • This treasure is very similar to the Doomsday Apparatus from Pikmin 2, which also required 100 Purple Pikmin to carry its 1000 pikmin weight.
    • Unlike the Doomsday Apparatus, the player can easily grow more Purple Pikmin above ground after obtaining their onion from the Trial of the Sage Leaf, as well as use Oatchi's max Buff to carry with the strength of 100 Pikmin alone (equal to 10 Purple Pikmin).
  • This treasure is worth the most amount of Sparklium of any treasure in Pikmin 4.
