I just solved a puzzle (in the Dark Mausoleum) by getting mad and mashing buttons in frustration. I didn't realize it was an evil lying tablet... but now it's dead and the chest is open.

Forer posted:Jesus how do people deal with jormungandr I can't even comprehend how to hit him pretty much. Idid most of my damage with flares. Spears are good too though. The most important thing is understanding his patterns as they're completely predictable. You have to be ready to jump over him and get damage in when you can. If you have enough health at the second cycle you can tank some hits and just keep shooting flares until he dies. Regy Rusty fucked around with this message at 14:17 on Aug 2, 2018 |

So I'm 4 guardians down, and have done a lot of exploring with my new item seeking a 5th guardian. I have 3 areas that I feel like I was making a lot of progress on, but then I hit a wall. In each case I feel like I MIGHT have what I need to proceed if I could just figure out what I'm missing. Ancient Chaos: I explored all over from the Taka Shrine entrance. I figured that I need to pray to Anu at the 3 separate shrines, but what I'm not sure on how I actually pray. There's also an involved puzzle about Yugas but I only have 2 clues for that so far, plus there's a pedestal for the storm vase, so I think it's the praying I'm supposed to be focusing on. Dark Mausoleum: I was so sure I was on track with this one. I put in the leg work to solve the Dark Lord's Footprints puzzle and was rewarded with a room with a treasure chest and nothing I tried worked there. Then I went up and killed Ammit and got a cup I wasn't looking for and don't know how to use. I've got lots of clues about the pyramid, the pyramid crystal, and mantras, but I feel like I must be missing some part of putting it all together to proceed. Heaven's Labyrinth: I made it in and up to the grail point, and have rotated the labyrinth wheel, but I haven't been able to figure out anywhere to go after that. The most progress I made was getting one door open on the upper floor that let me press a button that unlocked a chest, but I can't actually get into that room properly without falling down. Any hints for any of these 3 would be welcome.

Zereth posted:Oh, yes, while I'm here, what do I need to do to fight Jorgumadr? I believe I triggered the ankh but I haven't actually seen it yet, but a tablet says I need the "golden key" and has an image of the pochette key on it so I think I'm not actually ready. There's a tablet that tells you how to get that somewhere. The text is: one who can cling to walls can obtain the golden key.

I think I probably am misunderstanding what I'm trying to do on my first trip to the Underworld. I thought I needed to solve the 7 gate puzzle to get the shining scythe. But I'm making no progress there and can't find anything else productive. I found the first gate, but the second one is back on the side I started in and I can't figure out how to get back there. Can anyone give me a pointer to what my goal is and where I should be looking?

Well I'm stumped again. After finding Anubis it was somewhat smooth sailing for a while. I solved the riddles, got the scythe, beat Surtr, and beat Vidofnir. I also saved Eurydice and went past her. But to my dismay after making all this Underworld progress I now was back to not knowing where to go. I've got the real entrance open, but I don't actually know how to get in there from Icefire. I'm not sure how to get past Garm or into Sakit's grave, and I think I might be missing mantras anyway since I've only got Heaven through Wind. I know I need to seal Rattatosk so I can fight his true form but I think I still have at least one of his illusions left to find. Here's a picture of my inventory:  What's next?

Procrastine posted:A tablet in Chamber of Spikes mentions Hermod has been to the Underworld before. Yeah, and so does his glossary entry. I just meant I tried to go back and talk to everyone in my NPC list who had any kind of connection to the Underworld and somehow just missed his entry or something. Back on track now.

When you see the crab crouch, quickly climb up and hit his eyeball a few times. Staying on the bottom screen means the annoying bubbles won't spawn so you can easily climb up. I ended up beating him using caltrops lol

Yay I solved the Brahma Puzzle! I don't have to understand the star map right? Things will be on my minimap if I just go check each area? Also I was really worried my first attempt because I couldn't turn the green light, but it was just a bug and it worked when I reloaded.

Also I just lucked into the second to last Mantra, can't believe I never thought to check down that ladder, and that explains why it wasn't showing up on any maps! Now I just have to find the last one, but hopefully this one can help with something.
