Timber Dragon Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I made an account here specifically to get help with this place (and I'll probably continue to use it because this game, annoying puzzles aside, is awesome) because it's been such a frustration. Before anyone asks, yes, I watched both nickaboo's video and the other one everyone links to. Neither of them helped me at all because no matter what I do, I just can't get the path to open for me. I remember managing to get it once, and I'm pretty sure that was pure accident, because since then, I've never been able to replicate what I did. Point is, has anyone discovered the rhyme or reason for which trees disappear and when? There seems to be some kind of pattern that I can't decipher--I can usually anticipate the disappearance of the trees north and south of the unconscious/dead ranger, but that's it--but if any pattern exists, I can't manipulate it to where I need to go. And if it's totally random, I've taken other's advice on just wandering around in a loop until the path opens. I think I've made 30+ loops since the start of my efforts, and like I said, the path opened once. It's gotten to the point where I'm honestly thinking it's some kind of glitch on my part (I'm still on Episode 10, btw). I really need some advice for this; I don't wanna end this game prematurely because Mother Nature just won't disappear when she should.

Vinny Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 You didn't loop enough... Really, that's the only secret to it, there's nothing else. There's a reason to why the trees disappear, but that's plot wise, and even so, knowing that or not, it doesn't help to get through the forest... I know that Chrysolia Forest can be a bit laggy, and maybe between the lag you're not seeing the path that you should follow. But in pure honesty, that's the secret - Keep looping and pay even more attention than normal... The forest got me frustrated too at first, but i just looped until the way appeared... I didn't watch any video or anything like, it was all pacience... But really, KEEP LOOPING... that's it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Just keep going. But I'm starting to question if there is bug, since people never used to have this much trouble with it. I myself got it on my first run through. I'll see if Ame thinks anything of it. In the meantime, just do what Vinny said; keep looping. Sorry I can't offer much help.

Timber Dragon Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 Well, in the beginning stages when my patience was higher, I also noticed some of the branches on the ground disappear as well, along with some of the bushes. Does that account for anything? I've mainly been focusing on the trees, though I also kept an eye out for the bushes. Maybe I missed something. I gotta head out so I'll try again later, and I'll see if I can keep a sharper eye out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amphouse Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I remember one of the things that gave me trouble was that you had to run right into one of the trees before it disappeared. It took me hours to figure that forest out, I feel like it might be harder than it's supposed to be for some reason. Try using some repels to make it less frustrating, and just run into everything while you keep looping around. Eventually a new path should open up.

Timber Dragon Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Welp, I managed to get through it... after bumping into the proper tree that made another tree disappear. Oh well. Time to grind for Serra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhi Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Good luck. Serra is a challenge as of 10.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Good luck. Serra is a challenge as of 10.5. What changed about her apart from the double battle that everybody complained about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. Time to grind for Serra. Could you show me which tree that was that was hanging you up? If you remember which Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber Dragon Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Could you show me which tree that was that was hanging you up? If you remember which The one I was focusing on was the one to the left of the trainer with the Munchlax and Slaking, but it turned out that wasn't even the path; it wound up being a tree I think to the right of the unconscious/dead guy.
