Gameplay / Re: Ixis' Treasure Hunter's FAQ

Does anyone have any information about the last memory in the Abyss? I found the blocked off passage but I don't know where the pearl is. It's said to be in the whale, and I found my way to the end, but came across a singing octopus who doesn't seem to do anything (even if I sing his own song back to him.)

You are on the right track with the whale.

Hint: Charged Light Form -> Lamps.

I don't know if anyone else has posted where the Royal Soup is or not, but I found it the plant in the Sun-Temple Secret room where you get the Metal Key treasure. It's in the shadows on the dark side of the room (left of the key), but if you use the Light Form you can see it find the right note to sing.

Support / Sun-Temple Bug/Exploit *SPOILERS*

« on: December 10, 2007, 08:20:34 am »

I just ran across a minor bug today that lends itself to being exploited, so I figured I would bring it up.

When trying to get to the roof of the Sun-Temple and retrieve the memory up there, you have to leap up a waterless shaft, then from moving gear to moving gear out of the water until you can finial leap into a bubble that lets you swim up to the roof.

The trick is, when you are out of the water, and use the Nature Form to create those large plant things, they don't always behave properly. For one thing, when you grab onto them out of the water, you don't fall off after a few seconds like you do with everything else. But more importantly, when you leap off of one of the large plants, it will sometimes let you leap off with the velocity you would normally have underwater, and not the velocity you are supposed to have above water.

This means that with a single well placed plant, you can lunge right from the floor all the way to the bubble without ever having to touch a gear!!!

I found that this doesn't always work, but it seems to toggle with entering/exiting the water. IE, if it dose not work, you just have to drop back down into the water then jump out again, then it usially works again.
