Luigi's Mansion 2: Dark Moon |OT| Take ghost-busting to the Next Level

Boo-b trap was the best, lol.
Who the fuck said the ghosts didn't have personalities again? Oh, the reviewer of that shitty GS review no one else agreed with.
I loved watching the ghosts do pillow fights in the second mansion.

Agreed lol.

I saw it once and never gone again
WTF did you go surprise mode?

I got stuck there too for a while. It's simple really, the room that has that plant encased in a tube actually has a missing pipe leading to it on the sealing. Simply use the Dark-Light Device on the missing piece and voila
Yes.
Awesome, thanks. My game hasn't arrived yet, can't wait to play this.
LOL. No wonder I kept on thinking
where I can find that missing tube. I kept using flashlight lol and I totally forgot to that I can use the dark-light.
It seems like that health generally tends to be a criteria that you simply shouldn't hit triple digits on. I've gotten wrecked (comparatively speaking) into the 70s and up, and I still got three stars.
Time definitely seems to be the biggest one, though; do that fast and the rest of the pieces will fall into place.
Did the second mission as fast as I could, going from point to point, only lost 40 health, and got 2 stars. I wonder if you need to pick up coins as well (which I only had around 50 I think).
Ok, let me try this.
Since I bought a Pikachu XL recently I have been very tempted to buy this game to get the eShop Layton game (already finished SM3DL). I just ordered it and once again delayed my Wii U purchase until fall, and I hope I did not make a mistake.
I rented the first one on Gamecube and I enjoyed it though.

Just wondering... anyone mind Luigi-fying my icon??
Anyway, I've only beaten the first chapter so far, aaaaand... I love it XD Really, I love the exploratory elements, as well as the humor; seriously, some moments have me recalling parts of the ol' Charlie Chaplin Tramp films (humor via pantomime is kind of a dying art form).

So I did 3 trials of the first mission:
time: 2:45
damage: 0
treasure: 5 - no bone
(2 stars)
--
time: 3:15
damage: 0
treasure: 300 - no bone
(2 stars)
--
time: 3:35
damage: 0
treasure: 500 + bone
(3 stars)
Gonna guess the bone is a factor in getting three stars. At least for non-boss battles.

Revisit rooms and use your rainbow magic flashlight. Don't forget to look up.
Yeah. I totally forgot using the dark-light. I kept using my flashlight and looking for a piece of pipe to connect those pipes. :lol

Is there any rewards for collecting all the Gems/Gold Rankings?
Just finished the game, and it was one wild ride. I can't wait to dive back in and collect the remaining gems and Boos, but first some final thoughts. Mostly I just want to stress what a huge improvement this game was over the original Luigi's Mansion. I feel like it's puzzles are incredibly clever, the presentation is incredible, and all the changes to the formula ended up working for the better.
Next Level Games truly had to test their noggin when creating this game such as the brilliant idea of giving Luigi the Dark Light, among others such as the superb mansion design. Also the amount of content in the single player alone justifies the price tag, but the addition of a competent multiplayer puts it over the top. Safe to say that this game will be firmly placed in my 3DS for a long time.

Toad is certifiably ADORABLE in this game. He´s a mess!
This game realized the potential of the first, no doubt. The one think Im missing though is the option to explore the mansion fully for search of boos and gems after finishing the main missions in each mansion. Im in mansion 2 and this isnt possible so far, but I hope the option is there. That would be my one gripe with it so far. Anyways, im in love with this game. Is everything I hoped luigis mansion could become, and then some.
Kmart not stocking it?
The idea of making Luigi the more composed one was ingenious. It's so endearing seeing him forced to deal with his shit for the sake of Toad.
wasn't on the catalogue!

Ok, so I'm 99% done with the first mansion, but for the life of me, I cannot find the
. I've scoured the entire mansion several times, and find every other one in each sweep. Any hints?
5th gem (the teardrop)
After A-3, mess around the main entrance room.

If I'm thinking of the correct one, as it was one of the last ones I found...
It's mission-exclusive, the third mission, and involves something in the Entrance
If that's not it, in the room with the Blue Ghost painting in Mission 2, check the camera for a hint

In the first mansion, on A-3, how do you
EDIT:
get the second helmet painting with the helmet? I'm shooting it from every direction and it keeps bouncing off the suit of armor near it.
EDIT:
I just did this.
In the entrance, shake the suit of armor on the right, tons of money will come out and his head will drop. You can suck up the head and aim it upwards at a painting on the upper right, which will drop and a gem will fall out. No idea how to reach the second painting and what it has though.

Thank you. It's kind of annoying that it only works during A-3... No wonder I was stuck. I had already interacted with everything, but apparently that wasn't the problem.
Does the reticule show up? Otherwise, you probably can't.
Yes it does, but I can't figure out how to hit it. I got the first one fine though.
