Does anybody know how to reach the rooms north of the Cursed Child in Muud? I managed to do the spike and pincers appendages, but not sure how to get to the rest.

Do I have to push that boil hidden behind globules? I really just can't tank those things. ):
Ytran2012-04-05 00:00:41
There's a boil in the globule section, yea. I don't remember which one.
Lehki2012-04-05 00:40:31
Yeah, it was that boil. I learned something fun though! Go to a room next to globules, or trees above them, and then

SM PAUSE
SM ADD FREE CLIMB DOWN
SM ADD FREE PUSH BOIL
SM ADD FREE CLIMB UP
SM NOW

They won't register you in the room and start chasing. 8D

If your excitement to rush you then walk into a room of them, and then panic and sprint away into ANOTHER group of them, it won't help so much. <___<;

Is there a trick to finding Joiya in Carai Caroo, or is the fact that she's not here mean she's just dead or something?

Quite sure it's the latter. The quest needs to reset / cool down.

I've spent a while killing slugs on The Facility and got three crystals out of sixteen attempts. Is that about average? If so I'll need to kill about 1,200 slugs in total, which is fine, I'd just like to prepare myself...

Pretty sure when I did the Facility I did about 7-9 runs of the place overall, but I don't remember for sure.

It was worse than doing the Hand of Tzaraziko. Twice. :/

The Facility is an evil quest of luckbased hatred for players, as far as my experience shows. You might get lucky, or you might have five of your violet crystals crumble on you.

Do all of the number grid puzzles work about the same? As in, can no number in the same row/column ever be the same? I seem to be stuck with the Hyfae quest as a result of this, maybe, but I also can't find the instructions for how the puzzle works anywhere either. And every time I try to repeat the quest over again, the denizens all acknowledge I'd already helped them and thank me anyways. Which is nice, but... I don't know if I'm missing a syntax!

Is it just TOUCH and PUSH for the number puzzle?
Kiradawea2012-06-07 10:56:14
Nope. There's Turn as well.

The numbers can repeat within the 3x3 grid, just not in the same row/column. And I think for the hyfae... once you solved it (after pushing iirc) you have to open it or probe it or something. It's inside.

In Malacoda, where can the items that the apparitions want be found? I poked through all 4 planes/levels/timelines and couldn't find anything laying around that one of the apparitions might remember from their life...
Calixa2012-07-13 13:04:15
Did you try to probe things in the room descriptions? As a general rule, have verbose mode for room descriptions on when questing, and try to probe anything that is in the descriptions such as bookcases, paintings and so on. If something gives a hit, see about push / pull / turn / touch / press that thing. Or if it is a container see if it has something in it that you can take out, or open said container, or maybe find the key for it.

Where is the knife in Snow Valley?

I've scoured the valley three times, tried probing room descs, digging in places, scaling everywhere, killed everything a couple of times in hopes of a drop. The only thing I haven't tried is flying, because why would a knife be in the air. (If you tell me that an eagle has the knife I'm going to freak out. :D)

Yodeleh HE hoo!

I can't tell if you're trolling or giving me a valuable hint. :( I'll go jam that ice-pick between my eyes now.

It's a valuable hint. You're going to need Mountainclimbing to take advantage of it though.

PS: That too is a valuable hint.

Question about the Feyranti quest, I can easily get all the way to the symbol part. The problem is getting enough corpses to get all the blood diamonds I need before it all resets on me. I've tried an ungodly 6 or 7 times always to get to that part, get about 4 symbols and then have to head desk my face.

Is there some trick? Am I missing something? If someone says kill faster I will seriously e-throw something at you.

You are aware that any corpse works, right?

I just threw in hordes of kepherans.

Yeah, I knew that. I was just curious if I could stop the stupid thing from reseting every hour or if I'm going to have to kill 200 kephera before I start the quest. Looks like the latter.
