easter-eggs

[spring thistle]

But is there another. Because pixel hunting is my favorite thing to do when the lights in my team die on either sides of the map

[dull marsh]

I just hope there is something more cuz even saying there are only 3 many of us are about to get baited into thinking there is still more lol

[spare steppe]

No it's a type 6 - just a fun shoutout 🙂

[fallen jasper]

Nice

[dull marsh]

Feel free to tell us once you've updated that EE and turned it into a mega-ee with a giant fantail arriving in the map and just start pecking players health... 👀

[dull marsh]

Not even sure if we found what it's referencing (I could have missed it tho), anyone got any idea?

[spring thistle]

Shout-out to midas for getting married 🗣️

[spring thistle]

It's referencing midas getting engaged in the country where fantails exist

What was the country

[hard forge]

NZ

[spring thistle]

YES!

[hard forge]

@balmy fog

what did you want to know?

[cold heart]

there is some info in the pins here #1268387898219040812 - the tldr is that Midas got engaged in NZ and fell in love with Fantails whilst they were there
hence it being a type 6 EE.. dont think it references anything else

[unkempt dune]

it also looks like a hexagon if you outline it xD

so it could be the hexagon reference too

[hard forge]

On a dice is 6 is opposite of 1?

@unkempt dune

[unkempt dune]

uh.. I don't know

should be on most of them

[cold heart]

traditionally... on a fair dice 6 is always on the other side of 1

because the opposite sides should equal 7

6 + 1 = 7
5 + 2 = 7
4 + 3 = 7

[hard forge]

true

777 and dice are related maybe?

6 and 1 are mirror?

We know S1 has dice/gambling theme

[cold heart]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dice

Opposite sides of a modern die traditionally add up to seven, requiring the 1, 2, and 3 faces to share a vertex.

[hard forge]

I feel like Rob might have used this somehow somewhere

[dull marsh]

Luxor Casino https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luxor Las Vegas

[fallen jasper]

Sorry Ludo didn't catch it earlier

[dull marsh]

• Named after Luxor city in upper Egypt (includes the ancient city of Thebes) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luxor

• The egyptian name of the city is Waset, also known as Nut (like the goddess of astronomy, related to Moonlah)

• Luxor Casino in Las Vegas (egyptian themed)

• Located at the end of the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada

• Has a pyramid

• Has a recreation of the Great Sphinx of Giza

• Has an obelisk

• Fairly related to Zaraby Casino imo

• Lux is a unit of illuminance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lux

• It has the Luxor Sky Beam made out of xenon lamps. It's the most powerful light in the world

• The beam shines up to 11km high

• The project was initially known as Project X

• It has the Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition

• It had VirtualLand video game arcade, created by Sega, later became known as Games of the Gods

Done for now, I'll add other stuff later

[hard forge]

[dull marsh]

Ok the following stuff is impressive by how many stuff from the hunt it connects

I don't know if it's really an "answer" but it's beautiful for sure

Cirque du Soleil (or Circus of the Sun) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cirque_du_Soleil

• Circus = Circle, aka circle = sun

• Canadian circus, CA = California = Calcium

Cirque du Soleil shows

• Mystère at Treasure Island, Las Vegas (mystery, treasure island = pirates)

• O at Bellagio, Las Vegas (O=o=0)

• Kà MGM Grand, Las Vegas (Kà = K, 1 grand = $1K)

• Delirium tour (aka hallucination/dream)

• The Beatles Love at The Mirage, Las Vegas (The Beatles are probably relevant, "love" = tristan & iseult / heart suit, Mirage = hallucination)

• Koozå tour (contains letter Å = Ångström)

• Zed at Tokyo Disney Resort, Tokyo, Japan (Zed = z = imaginary number, Japan & Tokyo = Kyoto)

• Criss Angel Believe at Luxor, Las Vegas (Criss/angel = religion, "believe" ties in with 1st lvl3 image, Luxor see #easter-eggs message)

• Ovo tour (ovo = egg = tier 3 = owl = minerva)

• Banana Shpeel tour (banana = monkey = 3HM)

• Viva Elvis at Aria Resort and Casino, Las Vegas (Elvis Presley = S1 = King)

• Iris at Dolby Theatre, Los Angeles (Iris = goddess = eye = violet flower = iridium = discovery, Dolby Theater LA = Hollywood Boulevard = Sunset Boulevard)

• Amaluna tour (luna = moon)

• Crystal tour (crystal = CaCO3 = calcium carbonate = t1e = egg shell, crystal = ice, crystal = diamond)

• Echo tour (2023) (echo = echolocation = cetaceans, 2023 means it was not originally on the board, but may have been added since then)

done

[cold heart]

really interesting connections 😮

[neon raptor]

Have we found anything meaningful from any of the barcodes? (Deciding whether to spend my time on it or not)

[balmy fog]

Moolah is also the cow

Monkey's uncle is used to express surprise, amazement or disbelief

Harumph is also weird, the earliest known use of the noun harrumph is in the 1930s.

Earliest evidence for harrumph is from 1936, in the writing of ‘Josephine Tey’, novelist and playwright (real name Elizabeth Mackintosh).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey's_uncle#:~:text=It was originally a sarcastic,sarcastic phrase came into use.

@fallen jasper I want to purchase a Dragon Scimitar

The notion "that [people] were descended from apes was considered blasphemous ... by Darwin's contemporaries", and it was for this reason that the sarcastic phrase came into use

Didn't yal have some links with space and darwin?

@fallen jasper Tell CM Justice to update Fantails on #egg-hunt-onboarding on his working hours. We found 3/3.

[fallen jasper]

Yeah yeah I'll make sure he remembers

I will forget to remember to tell him

[unkempt dune]

87549 from the Pipe Dream charm

[lone wave]

The gold nugget in the shop could actually be an asteroid, right?

[sharp flame]

oo good find

[dusk veldt]

Wrong channel

bruh, you're admitting to breaking the server rules🤦‍♂️

[opal pond]

You can still level up in the #lfg channels???

mods... reset his level!

[exotic hollow]

Calm down my friend, just one message doesn't make any difference and I know it's a mistake

Relax yooo

[crisp eagle]

The 49 makes me think of the miner 49ers during the gold rush with the bundle including a pickaxe sticker and the gold nugget charm.

https://www.reddit.com/r/thefinals/s/v40SejnbBq

A hint or … ?

[cold heart]

@unkempt dune 👀 wonder who posted this one

[neon raptor]

Anybody bought the level-headed skin yet? There is writing under one of the barcodes but I can’t read it in shop

[slate pasture]

Does the person writing this know about the concept of “supply and demand” along with the presence of inflation?

[lone wave]

It was actually said below that paragraph yes! I just pointed at the asteroid lol

Is it Solved or did you just find all 3 of them

[hard forge]

Solved and found all 3 of them.

FANTAILS were added by Midas

[ebon radish]

Is there a summary of current findings?

Some WR lore from Rob

#1201288968562552863 message

[jaunty bone]

Hey

[cold heart]

hi?

[weary edge]

What does the silver part say

[pure loom]

This new cap in the store has a Houndstooth pattern on it. One of the earliest occurrences of that pattern is from Sweden: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houndstooth

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerum_Cloak

[dull marsh]

a.u. can be used to abbreviate Ab Urbe Condita

Ab Urbe Condita is used for calendar from the founding of Rome

Rome was founded in 753 BC

7 Monkey, 5 WR, 3 Dolphins

The roman Empire was founded in 27 BC

27 is the number of days for the sun to rotate

The Capitoline Triad was a group of 3 deities, made of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva

Rome is built on top of 7 hills

[empty plaza]

We've got out work cut out for us guys...

[unkempt dune]

opposite of.. 357

you know, maybe a Rome hint for a future map

@pure loom might interest you

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/surprised-sorprendido-shaquille-oneal-gif-23222312

[dull marsh]

Also about Rome, there were 7 kings during the Roman Kingdom, and one of them was named Titus

King = Rex, Titus = T

King Titus = T-Rex

Also I strongly suspect that Rob has been playing on words to some extent about Level 3 becoming "real"

I think it could also relate to royalty and kings/queens

That would explain potential ties to Elvis (King or rock 'n' roll), Queen/Freddie Mercury and Prince

[inland hemlock]

Also Elvis released "Heart of Rome"

Freddie performed inside the Colosseum a couple of times

there's also a bunch of street art dedicated to Freddie Mercury in Rome

[pure loom]

what was the link to Queen/Freddie you had?

[dull marsh]

"Open your eyes, look up to the sky and see" -> Blue sky -> Rayleigh scattering

There are probably more tho

[crisp eagle]

I've been away for a bit. Where are those lyrics at in the game?

[pure loom]

Rob says OYE to us a lot - which we interpret as Open Your Eyes, so that's the link

[crisp eagle]

ohh yea he does. and "look up at the sky and see" brother Rob loves astronomy

[tardy drum]

“OYE” is a reference to “Oi” which Billy Butcher says before explaining that “Ohmlanda killed me woife” in The Boys (/s)b

[rapid willow]

Look up to the sky and look at stars..?

At one point I was shooting the multi-pointed stars on Vegas to see if anything would happen. Not sure if I even found all of the ones we can shoot at..

[crisp eagle]

i don't know if it's been mentioned before yet, but 3,5, and 7 are all prime numbers too

[unkempt dune]

the dissun hoodie does have numbers

looks like 00004406 0052 but it could be 20204406 0052 or it could be something else.. it's tough making them out

a bit higher res

[waxen sinew]

00004406 0062 🙂

they look similar to barcode numbers

[dusk veldt]

Im seeing 20204406 0052

[gaunt forge]

Hey Hunters! I don’t know if this is relevant but my shirt says “Open your eyes” on it, just wanted to pass this along incase it helps!

[misty ginkgo]

thats so cool

[misty ginkgo]

bar code?

its on the new dissun hoodie

i just realized its also on the back, small brain moment

0025 00057 5825 000??08928 it looks like

[lyric stratus]

CNS is in our clothes…. THEIR IN OUR DARN CLOTHES

[silver gyro]

0025 the 3rd number should be a 2

[copper zodiac]

I want to say, shine a black light on it, but that would be extreme

[errant imp]

anyone up for a little hunt in Sys? SFXI = code

[warm bobcat]

Damn, I came in here to see how you guys are doing and your dissecting random numbers on cosmetics

[untold yacht]

lol

[crisp eagle]

Isn’t that kinda like…how this hunt works though…?

[warm bobcat]

idk lol.

[fresh quiver]

yea sometimes it is like this.
sometimes we go from a wiki thread to another, other times we are anallyzing the official arts because every one of them has hints hidden.
oh and some ingame things

[warm bobcat]

damn, what is y’all trying to find now? Like what Easter egg

[fresh quiver]

a few things.

I recommend to check out #egg-hunt-onboarding message . we have some things listed there.

[warm bobcat]

interesting. im not patent or smart enough to find Easter eggs lol

[queen stone]

You don't need that to be useful. Just play the game and if you see something that look like a secret. Check if it was talked about first and then ask if other saw the same thing.

[warm bobcat]

I’m interested in the dolphin charm lol

[queen stone]

Then look at https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1243224234675802135 and https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1217498821563514951

[waxen sinew]

I love stalking Rob

[tidal ferry]

I don’t remember very good, but probably u can look up for his account in battlelog and see what weapon he usually uses
But for that, u need his nickname :(
Maybe this is stupid theory, dunno

[swift scarab]

has anyone thought to look to see if we have a world map of arc raiders to see about the coordinates we got match something there

[urban wedge]

Another reference to the movie, about the dude stuck in VR #easter-eggs message

[rapid willow]

Even when I first started the game, I found one of the rabbits (even though I could have sworn I saw it on Vegas and not Seoul) You’ll find one!

I may not have been the persom to say they found it on this server, but you can still find all kinds of things ingame!!

[quasi snow]

i have a clip of somthing that could be part of the easter egg how would i post it

[fresh spruce]

upload to yt, easiest way I think

[quasi snow]

ok thx

doing that rn will send a like when its uploaded

https://youtu.be/jaA4vldOyLc?si=7kLVVgfOZvP5pqxX

the way. the roof lit up felt kinda weird

like purposeful

[waxen sinew]

I think it's just a lighting bug or just a sponsor thing

[quasi snow]

yeah idk if its a code im not able to solve it

[bleak wharf]

it was flashing from the barrel of the gun that player was shooting from

[quasi snow]

i dont think it was that because i have another clip where i was able to replicate the exact same thing

[alpine junco]

anyone noticed this on vegas sunset?

very small moon

[tardy drum]

Is that the moon?
I know on SYS there’s something similar (maybe more of a dot) at the same too far distance

[alpine junco]

it looks like a crescent

[torn swallow]

Is it that visual bug on all maps?

[alpine junco]

i dont think so

last time i was hunting constellations on vegas i never saw it

[torn swallow]

Hm

[unkempt dune]

it's a cloud artifact

it's on all maps with clouds

[alpine junco]

Never knew that

[long pelican]

Ive gotten an easter egg but only at easter time.

[dusk veldt]

Care to explain?

[waxen sinew]

he means like irl easter egg during the holiday called Easter

[dusk veldt]

So dumb ._.

[paper anvil]

I saw somewhere the next map could be somewhere in Italy, and I think it is, with the volcano sticker in the molten mark store bundle as well as the the gearhead set. Pompeii is in Italy, and Mario is Italian and a plumber. Could that be right?

Edit: continuing to inspect the gearhead toolbox there is a car on the top and on the left side there is a wheel. And a gearhead is someone who is very interested in cars. There are several race tracks in Italy. And the f1 car in cars 2, Francesco Bernoulli, is Italian.

Additionally, mount etna has been erupting recently.

Lastly, Rob mentioned his favorite weapon is coming next season, could that be a something from ancient Rome? A javelin (shield combo)? trident? what did the gladiators use?

[pulsar shuttle]

I dont want to ping, but i have a question for rob

unless im behind on stuff

do you need all the roses for the easter egg, or just one? (if thats too much info to give away sry, im new to this)

Binge watch ol' RockhoundBlack's playlist on the EE's, pick maybe one or two EE's that really grab you, get some food, and read the threads. That's what I've been slowly doing.

[old jewel]

Is there a reason that some metal things in sys horizon are indestructible like the hanging cube in the middle building, everything so far has been destructible including cranes and the Vegas display roof thing

[neon raptor]

All the metal objects on SYS are destructible it just takes a little bit of extra work to break some of them. I think goo helps a lot

[old jewel]

I've been whacking it with hammer and my patience ran out before I could break it 😭

[crisp eagle]

That Wiki also says the ten Sun Crows would all perch on a red mulberry tree called Fusang. Another mythical tree called Ruomu was said to be in the west. The sun would rise in Fusang and fall on Ruomu. Isn't there a pin where you guys were talking about an egypt god named NUT that takes on the form of a cow, a pig, and a tree? Rob said something like "I wonder what the tree is..."

[dull marsh]

For the tree I'm primarily thinking about Yggdrasil, in the Norse mythology, but there are very probably multiple meanings anyway, sounds like a good lead

[viral sparrow]

yo look new event

fk i cant post images

is orf

[sharp flame]

DM me and I could post it

depends what the image is 😭

[viral sparrow]

nah just go here https://id.embark.games/leaderboards/orf

[sharp flame]

oh yeah! that was added a few patches ago, for the Orf Backpack, which had a playable minigame on it

it's quite cool that they added a leaderboard for it

[viral sparrow]

ah okay, didnt saw that before ty

[spice lark]

Has anyone tried to present the key from terminal attack into the Disk trunk on kyoto while the disk is still showing? Might be possible in customs.

[lone wave]

And Yggdrasil has a link to some kind of egg iirc

[glad coyote]

one oddly spaced bollard on south of horizon https://imgur.com/a/7P8eyuO

[opal pond]

Did you find this in a fresh match?

Ive never noticed that

[glad coyote]

yeah, in a private match right after spawning

same

[fierce sable]

has anyone tried scanning the barcode on the hands for the magnetic field body paint?

[quasi snow]

have we figured out wats up with the roses in the practice range yet?

[quasi snow]

i just checked nvm

in the practice range next to the holes you throw the cashbox into there is a thing that says THE FINALS | REACH THE FINALS | 00:00:00 i think the last part may point to the timed thing where you have to do somthing in a certian frame of time but idk

i may hove found somthing, if you put a rose right next to the bounce pad in the practice range it turns black

[dull marsh]

Is it the Three-Legged Turtle which then leads to Nüwa and basically the Chinese creation myth triad? 🤔

Oh or it could straight up be Nüwa

[lyric stratus]

Chinese? Then Kyoto hint? 🤔

Hey guys, Rob left a message on the grand EE Hunt board about Level 3!
"There are many clues already out there, in assets and in the game... BUT they are obscure..."

[velvet narwhal]

This is the EE Hunt board: https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVK0idxbU=/?moveToWidget=3458764596714583146&cot=14
We aren't done yet with the older tiers, there are still a lot of unsolved clues.

[sharp flame]

@rancid rapids ^ can you pin Rob's message pleeease?

[rancid rapids]

no problem!

[forest flame]

Hey! What does the beachball blast emote look like in game?

[mossy patrol]

Same as in menu

[forest flame]

Yeah I haven't seen it, but does the ball you kick like fly off and despawn immediately, or how does it look

Because in the clip I found, It kinda just falls to the ground instantly.

I was just thinking about the dolphin charm, and was thinking if it had anything to do with kicking the ball to each other, at the beach, similarly to how dolphins play. Maybe this has already been explored, just thinking out loud here.

also given the charm "daisy chain"

Also, again, maybe this has already been discovered, but maybe WWELCOW is, "We will emerge like creatures of water", or something similar.

It could also have to do with Ecco the dolphin, like "When was Ecco.." somehting something

[drowsy warren]

@proud minnow thank you so much for following me it means so much to me and I can’t wait for more hints for the rose Easter egg during season 4!

[forest flame]

Also, do we know when the altered "welcome" letters were added, if it could relate to "I’m curious if you will find it… but it’s written in the opposite."

[fresh quiver]

for what there will be more clues in S4?

[drowsy warren]

I asked about the rose Easter egg

@fresh quiver

The one for the practice range

[forest flame]

Given this, maybe juggling a glitch barrel to each other like dolphins?

[sharp flame]

Rob says "in assets and in the game", I assume only the most recent posted assets

[vast fractal]

Yall ive been away for a while, we found coordinates that led to kazakhstan. Did anything come out of that?

[neon raptor]

We don’t truly know where any of the coordinates are. There is no cardinal direction on any of them and there’s speculations that they might not even be earth coordinates.

[nocturne furnace]

The floppy disks in Kyoto, has somebody tried finding them all in one match?

[rugged breach]

Going by monkey island tree stump, there's 3 disks to find. We've only found how to get one of them so far

[errant imp]

This comment still bugs me

[rugged breach]

Being able to find multiple of the same one is most likely a quality of life thing since which tree of that one model they spawn in is randomised each time

#easter-eggs message "Today the middle finger sits in a small glass egg among lodestones and telescopes, the only human fragment in a museum devoted entirely to scientific instruments. It is hard to know how Galileo would have felt about the final resting place of his finger. Whether the finger points upwards to the sky, where Galileo glimpsed the glory of the universe and saw God in mathematics, or if it sits eternally defiant to the church that condemned him, is for the viewer to decide." https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/galileos-middle-finger

"lodestone" reminds me a bit about the "gold lode" charm in the shop

[unkempt dune]

I made an intersting connection with the Holtow logo today. I only realized it after working on the dolphins frame for the miro board and making the finger gun gesture with one of my hands. It looks like the Holtow logo is made of two hands that form the "taking a photo" gesture. And then in the middle of that you have a dot, like a recording dot. Both of which can be related back to cameras.

It's so obvious when you think about it, but it took forever to make that connection

[crisp eagle]

Whoa. and that's what insurances companies do when making a claim in the real world too. photos and videos

[tardy drum]

Maybe they’re just always watching.

[daring bluff]

and the flashing red dot that used to be on the holtow website

(the dot which actually had a square around it, just like the holtow logo)

[unkempt dune]

The contract found in the background of the holtow M11 may or may not have a clause related to recording

[timid solstice]

Yeah came up a couple years back..

Crazy to say years now…

[torn swallow]

So then holtow is always watching?

[unkempt dune]

HOLTOW looking like MONOH when rotated 180 could be hint for the moon

[unkempt dune]

and if that's the case, they might be something more..

I mean, they're a virtual insurance company, wouldn't be a shocker if there was more going on

and then the stuff from yesterday would be the complete opposite

the moon and the sun are the same shapes. both are circles. and there's a circle used in their logo

so they both could be a representation of HOLTOW as a whole

on a slightly different note, it'd make sense for Vaiiya to get the camera-related sniper skin because they probably use cameras for their line of work

and that's why their logo would have a red dot

I don't know if they also sell products like security cameras, but I wouldn't be shocked

[lone wave]

Or something that records your "screen" non stop

But now we have 2 sponsors using cameras, so they should work together hand in hand (holtow+vaiiya)

[quasi snow]

it could be inportant that the skin dosnt take a picture of your in game kill and only shows you the charachter of the person you killed

when i got the skin i was dissapointed by this and it seemed like fixing it would be very easy but this may have a real reason if the skin is important to the hunt

[fallen summit]

was the bar code on the new shotgun skin in the store looked at? saw it today and thought it was strange it wasnt being overly talked about.

[lone wave]

Yoooooo I just made a new connection! In 1979 the album « Solid State Survivor » from the Japanese band « Yellow Magic Orchestra » came out!
S3 soundtrack takes direct inspiration from this album! Stardust, A Step to the Big Stage and Mitzy’s Ebb and Flow are the 3 tracks that took inspiration from YMO (OYE?).
Listen to the galloping hi-hats and the synths

And yes 1979 + OYE in the same reference

(Also enjoy this insane album)

"Rydeen" and "Technopolis" sound sooo much like S3

« Their second album, Solid State Survivor, released in 1979, was YMO's pinnacle recording in Japan, winning the 1980 Best Album Award in the Japan Record Awards. It featured English lyrics by Chris Mosdell, whose sci-fi themes often depicted a human condition alienated by dystopic futures, much like the emerging cyberpunk movement in fiction at that time. » according to Wikipedia.

Sounds like something to me.
Also they were the most popular band in Japan at the time. So it makes sense to take inspiration from their music for S3 soundtrack

[dusk veldt]

There are going to be S4 hints in the next update :O #⚡┇the-finals-chat message

I WILL BE THERE NO MATTER WHAT

[dusk veldt]

Also possible hint #⚡┇the-finals-chat message, for something ._.

[lone wave]

Volcano maybe

[rigid adder]

High… hmmm

[dusk veldt]

Honestly Rob dropped alot of hints in main, I would check them out

[queen stone]

I hope is a vignette.

I like those

There’s been Norse hints?

Also rob mentioned Fenrir right before this

[alpine junco]

the last two official arts have a lot left

[lone wave]

Wow…

Valhalla is up high

[quasi snow]

NEW MAP IS VALHALLA???!!!

maybe asguard

or the bifrost

[tardy drum]

Mjolnir hammer skin when

[sharp flame]

we already have a high-up map

[lone wave]

That’s right! But I’m not against having two haha

[sharp flame]

3 actually then, Seoul, Skyway, ???

[lone wave]

Oh yeah technically Seoul is high! My bad haha

[sharp flame]

maybe he's hinting to look for something in Seoul, or Skyway?

[lone wave]

Yeah I’m starting to realize that! Maybe some hints appeared! I’d look into Skyway if we have to find something reaaally high

[sharp flame]

on the highest point on Skyway 👀

[lone wave]

You know what. I might jump in LFG EE if my friend doesn’t respond in 15 minutes! We were supposed to play, but if he’s not here I might hunt for EE

[errant imp]

Rob we need you back for the dolphin hunt 🥲 we are 1 step away from ending up in insaneness

Hey @low escarp I finally got shaking screen behind Rob statue 😮

Twice actually

ye i think explosions on th emap just hsake that spot for some reason

[silk peak]

Season 4 with a brazil map or is it rome?

[bleak wharf]

probably smth related to Sweden

maybe Vikings since rob was speaking about shield skin since 1st season

[umbral flax]

I wish we could get a teeny tiny hint on what the new map is gonna be

[storm horizon]

[alpine junco]

#1211002564015824906 message "roses are available on all maps"
wouldnt sys$horizon be the easiest to find them?

[waxen sinew]

I have yet to see any, but I could be looking in the wrong spots

[dull marsh]

"roses are available" ≠ "there are roses"

The choice of word seems VERY specific and intentional here

I believe that we first have to do something, potentially in PR, to "unlock" the roses and then be able to "get" some on other maps

[alpine junco]

Makes sense, practice first then do it for real but on all maps

[dull marsh]

The part that bugs me is that he could have said "there are roses on all maps" but instead decided to say they're "available" only 🤔

[alpine junco]

isn't the PR ee a big EE like the megalodon ee in BF?

[dull marsh]

Well the roses EE yes, there is nothing that tells us that the big part is triggered in the PR

And since for megalodon you had to run all over the map, wouldn't be surprised for the roses EE to have steps across multiple maps

[alpine junco]

megalodon was also enter map and activate then enter map again and activate once more

or am i thinking of a different one

i recall there being an EE where you had to activate certain steps and then return to the same map and continue the ee

[light walrus]

Any ideas on why the official art of the heavy would have the shotgun's magazine positioned so wrong? Its been bugging me. There's no way that it's accidental. I brought it up in the corresponding thread but haven't really heard anything.

[pure loom]

which image is it?

[light walrus]

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1265367410257428731

[pure loom]

it looks like it's in the process of being removed maybe?

[light walrus]

The front of the magazine is impossibly clipped about 2 inches into the magazine hanger which is indicated by white lines. Its also clipped partially into the bottom of the barrel indicated with the blue line

[unkempt dune]

it's possible something is hidden in the darkness

since that's the part that it reveals

and it's one of the darkest parts of the image

[crisp eagle]

This roses talk sent me down a little rabbit hole. "being available" while still not showing up on maps reminded me of a book series I read by Stephen King called "The Dark Tower." The tower only officially exists in one specific universe, but there are items in other universes that will represent it. In our universe, it's a rose. One of King's inspirations for the series was a poem called "Childe Rowland to the Dark Tower Came" by Robert Browning. And Browning's inspiration for the poem was a line from Shakespeare's "King Lear" that reads "Child Rowland to the dark tower came. His word was still 'Fie, foh, and fum, I smell the blood of a British man.'"

[light walrus]

Yeah I'e spent like 30 minutes looking at that as well. It doesn't make sense that we'd be able to see anything in the dark mag well

[unkempt dune]

funny enough, you just need to look at his fingers

and you can see them clipped

it's entirely possible the terms "clip", "clipped", "clipping" are a hint

[light walrus]

I was sorta thinking the same thing

Of all the things to be clipping its the clip (mag)

[lone wave]

Uuuuh… fie foh fum (with another spelling) is a hint for the practice range EE. Everything you said sounds super important tbh

[lyric stratus]

i cant unsee

help

[quasi snow]

they look backward

also if you think about the preportions of his harm the placement of that hand dosnt make sense

also for the practice range roses has anybody considered that other parts of the EE could be in the other tutorials

[low escarp]

To make the flying welshman show up guybrush has to first repair the lighthouse
and it looks like it uses a Fresnel lens
lighthouses are pretty high too

then with the whole electricity thing in the dolphin charm thread i was thinking
lighthouse -> light -> sun -> dissun -> energy
and noticed this

[low escarp]

this ones a stretch but

ball in center with rings but

[snow walrus]

where is this written on the map? from cns with love i mean

i wanna throw a glitch barrel to see if anything happens

[hard forge]

Billboard

SYS

[snow walrus]

wasn't it on top of a building

[errant imp]

i know that rob has blessed us with a lot of hints, but one extra couldnt hurt 🥲

[oak mason]

Good Game Team :v

[rugged breach]

7 piles of cubes. All different ammounts 🤔

Also kinda reminds me of a wonky clock, further emphasized by the long and short "hands" coming out from the center

[oak mason]

Does anyone play private on sys now ?

[rugged breach]

Combined with "pay attention to the dolhpins' movement", I wonder if each dolhpin's jumps mapped onto the clock face would reveal something.

There's also the "...time to free this little fella" #easter-eggs message

[oak mason]

it can be even with match time, to trigger in specific mins/secs like it was in THPS2 (school rail)

[hard forge]

yeah we tried jumping on CETACEA in clockwise direction

in all TOD, nothing happened

[rugged breach]

Yeah I was there in one of the attempts. To clarify, I'm wondering if the central area is some sort of a wonky clock and the dolphin jumps mapped onto it reveal a time, potentially a number sequence, for us to interact with the block piles in a way

[snow walrus]

have you searched in Discord?

[low escarp]

mb idk why i didnt do that this time 😓

[fresh quiver]

GGT = Gigatron

[low escarp]

ill delete the message so i dont confuse anyone else sry

[dull marsh]

OSPUZE could be a play on word on Octopus Spews, which would be cephalopod ink. Apparently the ink is mostly black but can also be luminous (which would link to some OSPUZE images with blue glowing stuff), and it contains small amounts of free amino acis, like taurine which is used a lot in energy drinks.

Also black (like their ink) is one of the main color of OSPUZE.

[daring bluff]

there’s also that one ospuze gif with a random octopus in it for dramatic effect lol

[dull marsh]

More than 1 media has this octopus, it's an integral part of the brand

[worthy belfry]

Has anyone found EE on sys.horizon like the text on monitors and ground? (and understood them?)

[unkempt dune]

It's possibly WT music

[low escarp]

does "they will stay to S4" mean "till" s4 or stay for all of s4

[waxen sinew]

why would dusty yell at him then?

[unkempt dune]

Season 4 World Tour music

[waxen sinew]

oh my bad I thought you meant current wt music

[unkempt dune]

it sounds similar to The Big League (S3 World Tour music) https://embarkstudios.bandcamp.com/album/the-finals-s3-original-soundtrack

[dusty elm]

Spawned into a practice range and an invisible person was standing in front of me, then just vanished. Has this been seen before? Just the other side of the server?

[quasi snow]

yeah idk what this is but ive been seing gunshots when i glitch outside the practice range

[dusty elm]

I have a vid

[sharp flame]

🔥 OMG!

I love it sm, more GAMESHOW

Idk if you can with your level

[dusty elm]

I’m asking if you’ll do it on my behalf

[lone wave]

Oh okay! Yeah send it, I’ll see if I can

[dusk veldt]

First of all no Easter eggs can be activated by ”glitching” and second of all you most likely saw other players. The practice range is still hosted on a server, with various instances running at the same time

[pure loom]

This image doesn't have any connections (that I know of) but I found it while looking at some pages about X-ray diffraction and just thought it looks cool with all the writing and equations around the outside

Did Rob ever elaborate or anyone figure out how he hid Paul Klee's signature in the VVV image? I spent literal days trying to find it and couldn't even knowing right where to look.

[limpid yarrow]

i think its explained in the level 2 bored no ?

also did Rob ever say anything about running through all the Tori gates to trigger something cos if you follow the yellow stuff, they kind of lead to each other kinda like a Color Walks

https://ihueman.wordpress.com/2013/06/06/william-burroughs-color-walking/

[dull marsh]

No I don't think anyone managed to extract it on their own, Rob has posted a couple images of the process but that's it afaik

[radiant lichen]

have anyone discussed these numbers in Sys? they are probably random right https://imgur.com/gallery/sys-carc-CSnNIOe

[dull marsh]

There is very likely some stuff in there, it would be such a wasted opportunity honestly... but how easy/hard is it and what could it relate to... no clue

[haughty juniper]

anything in rob's ost leak?

[odd copper]

I had this happen a few days ago

[haughty juniper]

ran it through spectogram stuff, audacity, and even tried steganography. nothing sadly

seemed like it was just a genuine leak from the actual OST so probably nothing hidden there

[haughty juniper]

so it maybe the reshaper the way to get roses in other maps, with some specific items i guess

[dawn coral]

my brain is melting coming back after a few months away. this EE map, i think ludo made, my goodness.

[fresh quiver]

which map you mean?
https://coolstuffgoeshere.github.io or do you mean the miro board as map?

anyway. both are amazing

[velvet narwhal]

grenades turn into flower pots iirc. maybe it can also turn into a rose

[odd copper]

My thought process was to place the rose into an empty pot

How micro do you think we'll need to go? Auger electron spectroscopy is very interesting since it looks like it could hold some really good connections to the hunt.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auger_electron_spectroscopy

I actually reached Auger from the CNS stuff from Season 2

243 frames from xX_RuRDY_S__Xx.gif

2 = TWO = 3 letters = 3
4 = FOUR = 4 letters = 4
3 = THREE = 5 letters = 5
**243 **= 345

3 = E
4 = A
5 = S
**345 **= EAS

make it alphabetical:
**EAS **= AES

AES = Auger Electron Spectroscopy

7hE w4vE ><> ><> ><> ><> from RuRDy to FoLLoW 7hE w4vE ><> ><> ><> ><> can also reach Auger

take the possible numbers from the title:
7E 4E 4

convert the Es to 3s:
73 43 4

connect the numbers to countries and whatnot and you get:
GR AU E

scramble the letters and you get:
AUGER

I know it certainly is an artistic choice, but lore wise : why all the videos (trailers and store updates) always glitching? In that VR world, the technologyof the games show is almost immaculate, but each time we get any update, there are ALWAYS glitch effects

[keen yacht]

I didn’t even know that was a thing, I appreciate you @hard forge

[fresh quiver]

Something along the lines of „#📕┇lore is the EE-hunters sidequest. „ 😄

[dusk veldt]

Umm has anyone noticed a new tune on Monaco

[mint phoenix]

where and when?

and how

[low escarp]

i think the fans are like singing and playing drums i got a clip 1 sec

[dusk veldt]

Yep this was it

[low escarp]

so far heard it 2 times both on monaco

[dusty elm]

I’ve heard Soccer chants ingame before, but not like that.

[opal pond]

Are they singing the tune?

Nevermind im tone deaf

[limpid yarrow]

was Monaco a holtow map ?

[opal pond]

No its the world tour sponsor

[dusty elm]

A Randy Rhoads connection?

[dusk veldt]

Question, how are you seeing Holtow. Probably like how the DISSUN thing released earlier now that im thinking about it

[limpid yarrow]

ahhh okayy

[low escarp]

ye update with sponsor always 1 day before new wt idk why

[vale swift]

Brb

[low escarp]

just got it on Sys private lobby

[peak plume]

Some musics being leaked on official stream rn for sound enjoyers 😄

[lone wave]

Sounds like a dinosaur the very first second

[dull marsh]

Based on the latest lore video with Holtow, would be cool if we got a gamemode event where the sun turns off or on for 2 min mid-round lol

[lone wave]

Yeah then Holtow takes over with a fake sun

[maiden plume]

For new lore vid, does the qr take you to holtow.com

[lone wave]

We can sign up for holtow insurance

[marsh wolf]

free number 😁

[lyric stratus]

YO it it really hard to see, but i think there is a message there

i think that is message

its only on that side

[dull marsh]

What "message"are you seeing?

The grid is normal JPEG artifact

[lyric stratus]

its only on right tho, the lines

they are hard to see, but i see them

[dull marsh]

You gonna need to highlight whatever you're talking about lol

[lyric stratus]

ok

[lilac harness]

you can download the holtow banner at the bottom so idk if there's anything in the metadata

[lyric stratus]

nvm it was my dumbass monitor lmao,

i tried

[lilac harness]

I checked the exif data

there isn't anything interesting

[dire lintel]

In case anyone else is wondering, I tried entering it as a gift code in the embark portal, invalid code.

[stone relic]

Anyone try this for redeeming a code?

[lusty grove]

Im trying so hard to figure out the Search bar

[slate dagger]

i think it's just a squarespace thing

[lusty grove]

No lore intention behind*?

[dire lintel]

As a gift code, also invalid.

[stone relic]

not very awesomesauce! thank you for chekcing !

[dull marsh]

No, it's literally there by default on squarespace, we're not really supposed to use it to find pages tbh

[lusty grove]

I see, makes sense, thanks

[bleak wharf]

i get what you mean but i think that's just artifacts caused by filters in your program
i have nothing on my end

[sharp flame]

Dolphin Charm, 6/7.. TWO HOURS AGO

Roses EE

use less N and more K and P..

[lyric stratus]

found this in website 🤷‍♂️ not helpful most likely

[lone wave]

Fertilizer !!!!

[lone wave]

Ok now let’s dig into that, miners! Rock and Stone!

[lone wave]

Ashes are a good fertilizer and we have a LOT of orange barrels to burn down the whole park

[sharp flame]

yeah, not sure what other sources of water there were since S1..

[lone wave]

Maybe if we burn everything we activate sprinklers lol

[lyric stratus]

what is that

[cold heart]

please dont look at the webcode, its against the rules and spirit of the hunt

[lyric stratus]

ohhhhhhhhhhhh oppsie

[cold heart]

nothing important 🫠

[lyric stratus]

sure hope so now lmao

hey!

[lone wave]

Hello good sir

[lyric stratus]

are you real quemby rutile?

who, CNS?

i'd love to stop them hehehehe

also why cant i find any documents on your website? kinda hard to move around on lmao, just an image.

[lyric stratus]

lol

[hard forge]

CNS will expose you.

[alpine junco]

5000G isnt on the sticker in game

[sharp flame]

is that the price?

G is currency maybe?

[carmine trench]

G force?

[alpine junco]

11.02lbs

[bitter urchin]

anyone make sprogress on the search page?

[elder agate]

In the video frame by frame those letters change to stuff like "K=F", not sure if that is relevant

[alpine junco]

the new chant scared the hell out of me

[jade citrus]

the symbol to the right usually indicates center of mass, might be related to the test dummy cosmetic set

[lone wave]

Sounds like a t-rex at first

[alpine junco]

i was under the skeleton on horizon and it was loud

[sharp flame]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcel_(given_name)
Marcel - meaning, "of Mars" (as in the god)

[elder agate]

Does the ❌ on the clues google sheet essentially just mean unsolved? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tfveK-QScK3a7dr9LxGxIuFiw89nhoUxJvbfwCkMgXU/edit?gid=343130307#gid=343130307

[alpine junco]

yeah 5000G's of force

[sharp flame]

oo that might be it

[jade citrus]

thought it might be the gravity on the surface of the sun but its only 28G

[alpine junco]

6379 RPM
11cm radius
5004 RCF

[cold heart]

its a bit too little for a black hole too... sheesh... multiple trillion gs?

[alpine junco]

5000G is also a calibration weight for scales

Anyways back to the hunt

[vast drum]

what

[hard forge]

5kg?

[dusk veldt]

Whichever one of you made this account, and there's not many it could be, even less considering recent events, well you suck. Stop ruining the hunt for others, people pour so much time and energy into this, thats all for me.

[clever prairie]

Less nitrogen and more potassium and phosphorous = the way to grow plants with deeper roots /more fruit and less a priority on leaves

[alpine junco]

yes

[dusk veldt]

ChatGPT is unreliable, it also breaks another rule of the hunt ._.

[lyric stratus]

Apparently it’s not allowed to datamine, oopsie lol

[dusk veldt]

Does anyone read #egg-hunt-onboarding

[lyric stratus]

Man he got kicked

I didn’t read the rules

[elder agate]

did all morning 🙋🏼‍♂️

[dusk veldt]

Dude? Are you like genuinely dumb, the CMs told you several times to stop. Its not meant for our eyes

[lyric stratus]

He’s old lmao

[lyric stratus]

That image

[dusk veldt]

So why are you asking people for it?

[fallen jasper]

Stop talking about it

[lyric stratus]

Ok

[dusk veldt]

Thank you Justice, perhaps this time he'll listen. Now back to hunting

[limpid yarrow]

is the fire you cant put out in the practice range a bug ??

[red charm]

Justice is an amazing CM we love you Justice thanks for reminding Rob to make cover art

[dusk veldt]

Where exactly?:O

[limpid yarrow]

where the fire barrels ussaly spawn

it also doesnt set you on fire

[dusk veldt]

Hmmm, im not sure entirely, does anyone else know?

[limpid yarrow]

i was playing with the theroy of burn the park down to get rid of the nitogen due to coal being the carbon

[dusk veldt]

THANK YOU, and welcome

[rapid willow]

Smoke canisters make it to where fire can’t burn because the smoke takes up all the oxygen.

[limpid yarrow]

yes

but its still burning

[rapid willow]

I guess they exploded and hit a smoke canister? Fire also propagates in this game, so it can stay for a bit

[limpid yarrow]

not 15 mins it doesnt

i have thrown 10 smmokes onto it and it hasnt gone out

[rapid willow]

And the fire in the screenshot you sent looks to be a few feet away from where they’d spawn..

Very weird..

[limpid yarrow]

brb tryying to replicate

[red charm]

alrighty welp I have the website download

from before they deleted it

[limpid yarrow]

are you wanting the images ?

[tidal ferry]

no no no

we don't talk about it around this table

[limpid yarrow]

i kknow thats why ive told rob a place they still are to see if he can remove them

on website

[tight cloak]

has anyone figured anytthing new out about the website?

the website is like totally bugging out on me for some reason randomly

[tidal ferry]

nothing happend on september 4 at 15:30

[limpid yarrow]

they have a grain effect on it

[red charm]

well im about to look at the code

[median brook]

Did anyone record the opening cut seen of this week?

[tight cloak]

it does

[tidal ferry]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezXp5yRXUtc

[limpid yarrow]

this is replicatable

[hard forge]

#1280860770095206512

[fresh quiver]

please don't look at the webcode, its against the rules and spirit of the hunt.

I recommend to have a look at #egg-hunt-onboarding

[red charm]

why is it against the rules though

[daring bluff]

because it's brute-forcing your way through a hunt, which takes all the fun out of it!

[fresh quiver]

because its said also in the #egg-hunt-onboarding

[red charm]

but I mean like its not brute force why cant I look at the js code and stuff

[hard forge]

sometimes unintended things slip up.

things which are dummy files or non EE files

[red charm]

but this is an Ee related thing. its going to be released on the holtow website 100%. its an updated version of it.

[hard forge]

The creator of the EE mentioned there is nothing in there.

[red charm]

https://www.embark-studios.com/ldh

also that idk if ppl know abt it

[limpid yarrow]

actualy there are mutilple areas in the park on practice range you cant put out with smoke

[rapid willow]

The whole point of an EE hunt is to have the community come together to figure it out. Brute forcing through methods like AI should be kept to a minimum or kept as not used. They’ve stated that all are findable ingame without cheats or glitches

[hard forge]

that one is deep and Solved.

[red charm]

oh ok

[limpid yarrow]

i knew about that

[hard forge]

lulz and I solved it.

[red charm]

oh cool

[limpid yarrow]

embark as alot of funky subdomains that i found but have never publicly outed

more so cos its againt the ruleing

[red charm]

howd u discover them

[hard forge]

it matches the standard pattern but the code is invalid last I checked.

[red charm]

i wondered that but it doesnt work

[hard forge]

the barcode is not new afaik

[alpine junco]

[lavish zenith]

I'm just eyeing the Roses and Dolphin Charm channels

and trying out stuff ingame, but yet to find anything helpful

[exotic flume]

maps show everywhere holtow signs. pls check if its only me

[tidal ferry]

no
for me too
bc holtow is the next sponsor in wt

[exotic flume]

ok

[ocean dagger]

idk if this is something, the generator in practice mode can be destroyed, but i don't remember if in any other game mode it can.
and if u destroyed it may be come to life again or not, idk which is the rule to the generator come functional again, or maybe is random

[waxen sinew]

can always check the pins to see if you can piece stuff together and some users post what theve tried but it might require a lot of reading

[waxen sinew]

it shuts of for a bit then turns back on, only happens once per lobby

[ocean dagger]

maybe you need to shut of, then put the roses under the lamps(cuz they're 5 of them) in the time that it gives you the generator, and when it starts again something happen?

[limpid yarrow]

this hasnt chnaged

/isnt new

[lavish zenith]

oh I have been reading through it all week and the website and Miro board

[cunning dock]

the holtow website has a search engine in it?

[limpid yarrow]

it has it cos it made with square spaxce

[cunning dock]

oh
lmao

[limpid yarrow]

not a seach engine

[cunning dock]

might be lore either way who knows

[limpid yarrow]

nop

[cunning dock]

I will FIND lore to spite you

[limpid yarrow]

i think rob semi confirmed it not to be

but its be around since s1

[astral sky]

can't believe holtow.com is finally fixed

we're so back

[limpid yarrow]

only took them one and a half seasons sesh

[astral sky]

I looked the other day and was sad

[limpid yarrow]

and you trust them with your money

and your life

[cunning dock]

LOL

[astral sky]

yeah, this whole website is hilarious

[cunning dock]

I love ospuze 🦅

[astral sky]

and mildly concerning

[cunning dock]

I really wanna know

what the contact us link is

lemme try using the default mail app ig?

nvm it only shows browsers

that doesn't help

[alpine junco]

the websites have already been broken down

[astral sky]

[e-mail] however I can confirm there's no automated response system, no idea if they're looking for a code or something specific

[cunning dock]

I'd assume what the link is

which is "I LOVE OSPUZE"

[snow walrus]

just sent will see if they reply

[red charm]

@proud minnow rob is there supposed to be new crowd sounds? I'm just making sure I don't look at that too hard

[atomic rock]

I don’t think he likes to be pinged, Instead just put a video of it in the “Rob look here” chat or wait till he shows up to ask, might be a while they are probably busy with season 4

[empty plaza]

Woah, never noticed that!

[red charm]

what rob look here channel

[red charm]

yeah i keep finding people talking about hearing it and its 100% new im tryina ask rob if its intentional

[lavish zenith]

Yeah the new crowd sounds spooked me the first time

[red charm]

they didnt document it so im super confused

[atomic rock]

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1204475718747029535

[woven onyx]

Found a way outside of the practice range

[lone wave]

Yeah it’s possible to do it but you don’t need to get out of bounds for the Easter Egg hunt!

Check all that if you want to know everything https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1100745453206786078

[woven onyx]

Hmm, was just wondering, found some weird stuff

[lone wave]

Alright, good for you but don’t speak about what you’ve found as it’s forbidden for the hunt!

[torn swallow]

Like the glitchy cubes

[hard forge]

he gets 10000 pings a day. if there is an EE he will tell us when it is ready.

[woven onyx]

I won't speak of it then 😬

[lone wave]

Still : welcome to the hunt (if you wanna join us)

[green sluice]

Somebody just triggered the dolphin charm but we don't know who💀

[quiet vessel]

i think that was truly random

[bronze wolf]

huzzah, finally done with my emerald grind, and now time to catch up on the EE hunt (this WT grind really derailed me). Plus, I missed all you lovely folk.

what's the best way to catch up on the level 3 findings?

EE masterboard miro page it looks like?

[green sluice]

How does one get the ability to talk in the other threads?

[woven onyx]

Definitely❤️ thanks!👀

[lavish zenith]

Damn crazy that the Dolphin Charm finally triggered

[lone wave]

Need to level up your discord rank!

[haughty juniper]

have y'all heard the new audio/sound in the maps? it almost sounds like a crowd chanting (like football team anthems) and at times sounds like arabic music

[green sluice]

How do I do that?

[haughty juniper]

source?

[lone wave]

Just talk in the main chat for example etc

[green sluice]

Rod said so in the dolphin chat

[lone wave]

#1243224234675802135 message

[green sluice]

Does talking here count?

[lone wave]

Yes but we try to keep it as clean as possible as it’s used to gather info on the EE! But you can definitely rank up by participating in the hunt

[lavish zenith]

Do we have to do the EE to unlock the Dolphin Charm or does it get unlocked automaticly?

[green sluice]

Now that it has been triggered we have to do something to unlock the charm

[sharp flame]

who has been hunting for dolphins in the last hour?

[young citrus]

This is my first time interacting actively with the community, especially for an easter-egg. That's exciting

[lone wave]

It was the same for me, I totally get what you mean

[cold heart]

The person/group, for the original charm trigger, is currently unknown. Its presumed to have been done on accident.

• Since it was activated, Rob told us a simpler way to view the code.
  ❗ Please still look for this trigger, finding the original solution would be awesome ❗

Shortly after this, this code was found by @pure loom:
