:lol, okay. The side quests are taking up all my time. Almost at 25hours, just entered Makna Forest, but decided to go back to questing.
What the game doesn't tell you, however, is that you can't save after you've entered the point of no return. So there's no way that one could possibly "ruin" his or her save-file. (Well, you also can't just call it a day afterwards, you've got to keep on playing)KarmaCow said:

I need some assistance in finding Dunban's 4th Skill Tree
edit:
Im in Valak Mountain and about to head to Sword Valley. Thing is, Ive only completed 6 sidequests. Monster Hunting 1-4, Chilkins & Antols and Valak Mountain Research. I know Dunbans skill tree is unlocked by talking to the Nopons, but Ive tried both camps (the one at the beginning and the one on the lower level both during the day and night but no exclamations pop up. One nopon on the lower level claims his buddy is trapped or something, but still no exclamations. From the looks of my map, everything is uncovered so what's the deal?
edit:
checked the spreadsheeeeit and it says Ive got to complete the sidequests Bad Timing and Chilkin Changes. Where do I unlock these?
JumpingTheGun said:
The prereq is Chilkins and Antols, so you have that covered. The Nopon that gives out the quest is in the Nopon Camp landmark. Have you tried talking to him with Dunban?
Also, did you find the Nopon in the icy cave and defeat the four Guard Chilkins that block the exit?

Aw man!
I missed the icy cave one. I might have it uncovered though. Whats the name and/or where is it located?
You put me in a bad place. I cannot remember where it isJumpingTheGun said:
It's covered by ice/snow so you have to melt it by using your magma rock. Try looking around, my immediate guess is that is' near the end of the cave or just before the Nopon camp (before the icy tunnel). TO CLARIFY: It's super small and only a Nopon is inside. Had you found it, you would have known.

ok cool ill start my search. thanks duder
Woo! I finally got my copy. My Wii is all set up for region-free and playing from the memory stick as well. Can't wait to get home to play.
I have a question, though. I've been reading about how people have somehow "scrubbed" all the other language VO out of their game other than english when ripping it to their SD cards, which makes it about half the size. How do you do this?

I'm not sure if this has been posted or if it's a GAF > Internet > GAF situation, but it's proving extremely useful.
*This is a spreadsheet full of spoilers, beware.*
I searched for a specific NPC name on Bing and got this lovely treasure trove of info.

Ok some questions regarding skill books and cut off times for doing stopwatch'd quests. Spoilers, I'm around lvl 40:
Where do you get all of Sharla's skill books? Can't seem to find them anywhere.
And when do all the Alcamoth timed quests get cut off? Is it an obvious plot point or should I do them asap?

finally beat the lvl 120 dragon right on the 120 hour mark. feels good man.
that was probably the most intense fight I've ever had in this game.

at 3/4 hp a nebular joined the fun and at 2/3hp ohne of those yeti things attacked (the one with the spike damage). without melias reflection spell it would have been impossible to get out of this situation alive, but I somehow still managed to beat all 3 of them lol. 20 glorious minutes of attacking, knocking down, reviving, healing, running, reflecting and casting shit.
most fun I've had in a long time. I wish there were more lvl 100+ bosses :/
now the KI is in for a real treat: they will be allowed to kill zanza on their own, while i am on the toilet

For Sharla, just keep looking at every new shop you come upon. Her skill books are sold along with the others.
You have a long ways to go before the Alcamoth timed quests get cut off; maybe 20-25 more levels or so?

just a little note: Eryth Sea during daylight theme might very well be my favourite theme...even better than the main one
man, it almost looks like a Nintendo game, quality-wise

DON'T HIGHLIGHT IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE END SCENE OF THIS GAME TO BE SPOILED
In the ending scene yeah she goes back to being human but you'll never be able to control 'normal biological Fiora' during gameplay.

That is why it is always best to abuse the hell of save-reload function to get the one you really want every time you are seeing a nice and shiny gold chest.

Has anyone figured out the best way to get into that antol lair you have to slide jump into in Valak Mountains?
Laughing Banana said:
Motherfucker I quoted this and got spoiled when i was just trying to reply to this part
anyways that's even with me using savestate reloading in dolphin (quick as lightning)....and reloading 50+ times to before opening the chest.
Some mobs seem predisposed to certain skillbooks. Even normal saving and reloading the whole save as you'd do for a rare mob doesn't change this that much.
They never have more than 4 skillbooks on them, but two occur very often, third book shows up very rarely (1 in 20 or 30) and the fourth one even rarer still. My savestate patience is probably like 15 minutes worth of retrys per book
I get the first book within 2 minutes, second within 10 usually, third within half an hour, fourth generally doesn't happen because I give up at that point.
Okay, stupid question, but I'm looking for a monster type in Gaur and I just can't find them.
Where the heck are the Ponios? :/
I saw them the first time I entered Gaur, like around the entrance, but now I've seen not a hoof. And I've looked over almost the entirity of Gaur Plains, like opened up most of the map.

around Jabos Rock Rest Area during daytime....they also roam near the forest just outside the Camp
Finally got Colony 9 up to 4 stars but I don't know where to go from there...
I completed every quest available atm it seems apart from the one where I have to raise affinity between Melia and Sharla. That's gonna take awhile I think... Should I be getting more anytime soon or do they appear later on in the story? Emmy won her fight with the poison sword and now everyone hates her so I assume that needs to be resolved...
Anasui Kishibe said:
Haha, I've seriously scoured that area with a fine toothed comb, day and night.
I'll go looking in the forest, cause jeez.
HolyCheck said:
See, the thing is though... I know where they are. I've seen them before. They're just...never there anymore. Haha.
Also, where is the "official" Tirkin camp? I have a quest to find a ~leader~.
Maybe if you went back there to the landmark near the beginning, and look in that area you'll find them.Leeness said:

YOu know that oasis thing? where you can save a bathing girl? The one with a few level 70 armus? It's round back there with tirkin guards. you can't miss it.

not in the forest, just outside of it
the Tirkin camp is to be reached through a cave up Rho Oasis
Dunno how you're missing the ponies, especially when you have the right area. They're hard to miss....Leeness said:Haha, I've seriously scoured that area with a fine toothed comb, day and night.

Tirkin HQ is north from the checkpoint/guidepost outside the refugee camp. N/NE and you'll see a cave guarded by some Tirkin.
Anasui Kishibe said:
Thanks.
I hope I can find them. It's so weird. They just seem to have vanished, haha.
ramyeon said:
I know right? Haha. Seriously, I'm just as puzzled, cause I know I'm in the right area, but all I see are Ardun groups.
I'm starting to think I'm blind or something.

Question about high lvl monsters. 100+ ones. How would you hit them? once I see red monsters I always miss. Is there a gem or something?
Should be noted last time I attacked a red monster was when I was lvl 77 trying to kill a lvl84. I'm 87 atm.

Holy God, dude. If that hour count is real, then almost half the total time that has passed since you got the game has been spent playing it. If you got the game at noon on Tuesday that would make it 25 of the last 53 hours. You certainly do live up to your name.
Don't forget to exercise and junk.
This is a beta map that was cut from the final game. There's definitely a YouTube video of someone hacking the game and exploring it...Gvaz said:
