stark cliffBOT
I played watcher when it released, now I'm trying progress the path with the feathers on the map. I've been wandering around stormy coast with max ripple for like 2 hours at this point and I haven't found the big guy yet. I found him once before in badlands but it was mostly pure luck and I have no idea how I did it. At one point I got a crab to spawn, but it just got stuck somewhere and when I came back the next cycle it was gone. wtf do I do

First thing first, do you know what causes the encounter to be triggered for a region? 
steel quiver
no clue, seems to only happen in rotted regions
maybe it's having found every connection portal? since it's mostly regions I've explored thoroughly already
could also be related to the amount of ripple spawn you free
rigid nimbus
The hint is visible in the screenshot you took
steel quiver
do you just mean the feathers?
I thought you were asking about what triggered them
rigid nimbus
Oh no l don't just mean the feathers
Direct hint; || those two feathered regions are connected how? ||
steel quiver
all 4 of them are connected through dashed lines, but the directions don't seem to have any pattern
I guess they all point to coral cave but I was there for an hour yesterday and didn't find anything (other than another crab that got stuck)
would love to have a yes/no if theres anything i can do in stormy coast cause its just getting harder and harder to traverse cause of the rot
like I can see the big stream of ripple spawn going somewhere but after a certain point I can't find them anymore
I guess they go to cold storage
topaz horizon
You dont have to deal with rot if you dont want to
steel quiver
what is that supposed to mean
steel quiver
I guess they go to cold storage
ok no they were definitley going to signal spires
but now what
doesn't seem like anything's changed here
steel quiver
still haven't really made any progress
can i at least get a yes or no if the crabs are helpful to me at all?
now there's 2 portals here i guess
west mirage
ripplespace might be useful here
steel quiver
I know there's some purple effects around it in ripplespace but they dissapear after a few seconds
ive explored pretty much the entire region in ripplespace
was just about to leave actually
are some of the portals supposed to not work? like they play the music and stuff but never actually open
and they just have the regular daemon portal effect in ripplespace
im kind of past the point of vauge hints here
steel quiver
ripplespace *might be useful* here
if there's feathers on the map, does that mean there is 100% something to do in that region
west mirage
if there's feathers on the map, does that mean there is 100% something to do in ...
i think so, but you might have to come back later to do that one
as in the one u are stuck on
steel quiver
afaik the only thing i have left to do is the rot ending
west mirage
are there any other regions with the feathers?
steel quiver
there's like 8
west mirage
maybe try another one of them?
steel quiver
i tried coral caves and pump also
topaz horizon
Hint: ||The regions with the feathers seem to be connected by dotted lines... What causes those dotted lines?||
steel quiver
but nothing
im gonna be honest i never understood the dynamic warp system
idk the rules for that
steel quiver
now there's 2 portals here i guess
also i tried making a portal on one of the ones that wouldnt open and it just stacked them
west mirage
have you tried going through one of the dotted line warps?
steel quiver
they won't open
west mirage
what color are they when you visit them
steel quiver
not yellow
west mirage
so theyre purple like normal?
topaz horizon
also i tried making a portal on one of the ones that wouldnt open and it just st...
That seems to be a bug from what Ive seen
steel quiver
so what do i do about it
topaz horizon
Dont try making multiple rifts in one room ig
Youre not supposed to be able to in general
steel quiver
alright well now that theres 2 i went back and got the threads
so i guess sometimes the first one just doesnt work
epic
and now all my rifts are yellow on the map
are we sure theres not some other condition that has to be met for them to turn yellow?
steel quiver
woah im yellow now
steel quiver
Its jsut make one then wait a few cycles
i was in the region for hours, it cant be this
topaz horizon
It is
steel quiver
or maybe it was just bugged somehow idk
topaz horizon
If a portal didnt turn after about 5-ish cycles then its bugged or something else is messing with it
It was pretty consistent for me
steel quiver
so what do the feathers actually indicate then?
i would have assumed they indicated a portal that had already turned yellow
topaz horizon
so what do the feathers actually indicate then?
A portal is yellow
steel quiver
so my eyes just turned yellowish, does that mean I didn't save the first time I saw it?
or does that just happen on the second time
cause if i didnt save then im gonna have to do the badlands one again
topaz horizon
2nd meet iirc
steel quiver
If a portal didnt turn after about 5-ish cycles then its bugged or something els...
ig the thing thats throwing me off is that all of my portals turned yellow at the exact same time even though i made them quite a few cycles apart
topaz horizon
Huh
Imma ask the code wizard brb lol
Thats either intended or somethign that makes it temporarily bugged, Im not sure
steel quiver
there's also still feathers here, but i assume thats intentional
topaz horizon
How many portals were present int he region before they turned yellow?
steel quiver
hm
not all of them did turn yellow
at least 2 were yellow and they both dissapeared
as for non yellow ones I'll check at next save
also i have to know
is this stupid crab related to this in any way
or is it just to help find the echo
steel quiver
topaz horizon
Oh
Not that Im aware
topaz horizon
ig the thing thats throwing me off is that all of my portals turned yellow at th...
I got a reply
||"activating the weaver in one warp also seals a random remaining warp"||
steel quiver
How many portals were present int he region before they turned yellow?
do you still need this
topaz horizon
Uhhh I dont think so ?
Their mechanics are weird lol I dont understand them much either rlly
west mirage
is this stupid crab related to this in any way
was this in outer rim? because if so then im pretty sure the crab leads to something unrelated to an ending
steel quiver
no the one in outer rim was useful
its in every area from what ive seen
but it just goes to a random portal
also my game just softlocked in daemon 
steel quiver
is this something I should be looking for right now? I've gone back through shattered terrace and haven't found anything
found big guy 4 times at this point so he's not on the map anymore
topaz horizon
is this something I should be looking for right now? I've gone back through shat...
:3
Idk lol
steel quiver
ok nvm it was just salination
