place a table. this will be your "checkpoint"
move away
drag a new one on your body
close the emote menu
drop the table (on you)
you are sent back to the last table table position
this is useful for table owners and does not need to be patched when it is used by the table owner ON themself
i saw Ghoulix mention that aeras, yeah, but i've failed all attempts in beta so far
And you need to hold hands with the person who got the table so they no strangers
anyone with ios and a table?
i didint even know that you can move other players with the menu technique 
if it is that one then the patch didnt work 
It was so useful 
And you need to hold hands with the person who got the table so they no strangers
@toxic spruce if they had sat they actually could be moved by the table owner. no need to be friends
giccix permission to dm?
i could teleport with bonfire by doing the sitting method in the last build, so i'll test out bonfire when google decides to wake up
google takes about an hour to roll out.
sure kai!
So like anyone inside the table will be teleported? Like no need to hold hands? @strong canopy
Oh what that never worked (for me)
My friend was teleporting himself with his bonfire the other day, I suppose thats the one that is patched too ??
thats the griefing they fixed
to move a player, you just needed them to have sat first
ahh
all chat table props were included in the exploit fix.
epic

i'll have to test it then 
Alright, so I asked a question in the questions channel and then I was told to take it down because it was beta? So my question was that I heard rumors that the traveling spirit was Adventure pass only.
yes that is currently tested in beta only
can you fix it only for players that are not the table owner?
i just want to TP myself, not other randoms
The goal of putting this in beta right now is to get it to you all very, very early in the process so that the team can incorporate feedback sooner. There are no plans to bring this to Live at this time.
but... ^^^^^
it's not a rumor and yes it is currently being tested in beta. you can read #beta-announcements for more information on the changes being tested.
Does the table teleport glitch work with spells? I wanna test it but I don’t have a table in beta...
Yep, any cosmetics that were AP exclusive would need the current AP to buy in the potential new system
yes that is currently tested in beta only
@bright portal
So I am correct in assuming that this one coming with not be adventure pass only?
I am looking forward to an in-game translation feature, though I understand that is a ton of work 
the thing is yes the glitch is indeed useful but at the same time it's not likely to update/change it to only the table owner teleports
by common logic it's still an overall bug , and it would be just a waste of time to adjust the bug and may as well.remove it completely
that is just my perspective
Does the table teleport glitch work with spells? I wanna test it but I don’t have a table in beta...
@toxic spruce maybe but dont do it. you could try it once only
you could do it with table spells too.
there are no plans for the new ts system to go to live any time soon
22 MINUTES!!!!!!!!!
22 minutes for?
Well I got table spells to waste for the name of SCIENCE
good job spooky! (I assume solo fire trial?)
fire trial, i'm assuming
FIRE SOLO AHHHHHHHH
ive been spending days doing fire solo since i dont have time to do it in one sitting
a pro !
I still get lost in fire trial ahahaha 
Just curious... how many times you done the trial???? 
watch, samba is gonna be on the leaderboard for fire on speedrun . com when it comes out
Samba how does it feel,
you can relax now don’t worry the fluffies are sky only and won’t come in your dreams
Maybe
Yep, any cosmetics that were AP exclusive would need the current AP to buy in the potential new system
what about the off season
well, i did it once about a week after release with one person, and then i was working on it for 2 hours today, and then the update
I believe pass pre orders smorty
oh thanks
I’m gonna solo fire trial, and weep at the finish line
Who knows if it’s tears of joy or pain
it's a concept though many suggested to keep the old system, if not give pass holders discounts
wait.. if 22min is considered a good time for fire trial should i be scared when it actually comes to live
im crying rn no joke
good luck lyze 
Wait, is the table glitch fixed? 
You were probably one of the last people to be in the trial before the update just now, you did it ! What a badge of honor 
personal thoughts : the current ts system in beta definitely feels like a paywall scheme. Like i am forced to buy a season AP just to get
another past season's item
im stuck in old fire trial because of android being slow 
tgc looses money though....
Ah, goodbye Sanctuary shortcut, I will miss you 
And ark shortcut
i just recorded my victory run throught the fluffies
i mean, if you wanna allow good player experience, there's alternative methods beside the current ts AP system to earn revenue
personal thoughts : the current ts system in beta definitely feels like a paywall scheme. Like i am forced to buy a season AP just to get
another past season's item
@bright portal agreed. I don’t like the new system for traveling spirits. The entire point of them in the first place was for players who missed a season or didn’t have a season pass to still have a shot at the cosmetics.
pls gib table TP bacc 😔 

sad to say I don't think they'll purposely try to change a patched bug for the sake of it Morue 
they probably have more important things to focus on
Well it’s still in beta so there’s hope(?)
We just gotta find something that the patch broke 😂
Can you do solo table TP in latest build?
There’s been plenty in beta that the players felt strongly about and was still pushed through to live. I just hope they listen this time because it feels extremely unfair and alienating. Especially to low income folks who don’t ever get passes.
i mean they never said TS were made to allow players to get previously pass-only items for in-game currency
but yeah, changing it to pass-only again is very very cruel
TS wasn't designed to get items to free players outside of the expressions. It was designed as a catch-up mechanic.
just gonna put this here. again, we are very early into the testing process, we don't know how things will be changed
i made it to the end of old fire trial! 
im not deending them tho. this new TS is lame imo, but i wanted the facts to be told
it makes it very unfair because this is the planned changed after MONTHS ts system was implemented. It's like dangling a candy to a child then deliberately take it back after months
I also personally don’t see how we are supposed to be “testing” this particular feature. Everyone in beta has a season pass pretty much unless they didn’t start playing until in between seasons by sitting on their beta account for a long time.
Leave feedback #beta-feedback
I’ve left feedback and I’ll leave more. I leave quite a lot of feedback every time something changes. Everyone always says leave feedback but so far every single thing the player base has disagreed with has still been pushed to live. 🤷♀️
i would say the feedback outcome may have been different if this was the route they were going for from the start.
that's not entirely true pony. look at rhythm beta. a lot of things were taken out or changed because people disliked them
they will just say we're a loud minority lmao. we just can't win
ehhh i wouldn't say tgc would think of us like that. At least i hope not
Pretty much feels like that sometimes. It would be nice to poll the beta community before implementing major feature changes like this. Which is something I have ALSO left feedback about numerous times.
ehhh i wouldn't say tgc would think of us like that. At least i hope not
@bright portal they just did haha. but anyway, gn. we already talked about this change but i think it will still come to live
rule1 w TGC : dont expect, it will save you from a lot of frustration
If it’s a glitch... expect it could be patched at any time... rip
not sure if polling 16k testers (probably less, cause people leave) to have us decide for 50 million players is a good idea. they decided on this system because of player feedback in the first place. i don't exactly like it, but that's why we see how it works in the game first.
remember, theres currently no plans for the ts system to come to live
Unfortunately it does seem like some things we “test” are really just to soften the blow of it coming along anyway. It’s very disappointing to have feedback channels, and all kinda of changes made to keep players from harassing other players (sort of) and yet it seems like so many people leave feedback about things and all share the same opinion and still doesn’t get heard.
the thing is, I wouldn't have issue with the ts system if it was properly discussed that it should that way from the start. Because we are comfortable with what we already have , hence the changes make it seems highly unfair.
I think in this year in particular it’s quite cruel to basically shun the low income players from ever obtaining certain items. This game is supposed to be about equalizing players and nobody being “better” because of exclusive items or abilities. And yet.......
we get the opportunity to see the system put in the game before it's pushed to live. our experiences are valuable to them. if they weren't, then beta wouldn't exist.
i know it doesn't seem like that sometimes, but we do make a difference. if they aren't going live with it, it'll probably stay in beta forever or taken out at some point. like the shepherd system.
also, i'm still sad about the animation for winter piano being taken out 
That's... A lot of negativity, guys 
We're beta testers, not board members, so I don't expect them to come to us for every new decision about the game. After all, it's TGC's game, not ours. 
We're just here to test and let them know how a portion of the players feel.
Do I agree with the new TS system? No. But I don't think that we have to say that TGC is bad and never listens to us. They've changed a lot of things for us - like recently, the flight system was changed, so the Air Trial should be less difficult.
Beta exists because of the technical aspect of testing the gameplay. I used to feel like feedback was actually listened to about features and how they affect players and how players FEEL about new things. Now I feel it’s more for bug testing strictly and any other feedback doesn’t really get the attention it deserves.
I know it's easy to think we don't listen, but there are a TON of things we've added/removed/changed as a direct result to feedback.
This does not mean we implement every single request or that we will make every single player happy because that is objectively impossible.
Thank you kitchen!👻
Tanks krilltjn
Beta is for testing bug fixes first and foremost, that has always been the case, that does not mean it isn't also for feedback on features. These things are not mutually exclusive.
hi i know i'm a bit late but can someone give me a summary on the table glitch patch? I dont really understand it. does it mean we can no longer move our friends around by holding hands? or...?
kitchen 
that is true, feedbacks are in the end, a voiced opinion . Devs still have to look the pros and cons of the feedback, whether it be gameplay, revenue , etc.
bring back the whiteboard of names
Keep in mind your voices in beta are not the only voices we listen to.
Have to wait for google playstore again to let me update the game 
Of course and I don’t disagree that pleasing everyone is possible. It’s not. I don’t even expect to be pleased all the time - nor am I. I hate, still, that the radar honk is gone and I’ll die on that hill forever. But I still play, I still buy season passes for myself and friends, and every single in app purchase of limited items. Changes like the TS don’t affect me - but I’m not thinking of ME. I’m thinking of all the low income and young players who will be crushed to know that they can’t just work hard and grind for candles anymore to get the cosmetics they see everyone else has. That hurts me and I’ll keep saying it. I’ll be sorely disappointed if this comes to live to appease a few players who think they aren’t special enough because they paid for the season passes and someone else didn’t. That’s just cruel.
Information from beta ripples out into the wider community and we listen to all that feedback on all our platforms, not just discord.
Wait!! I'm not trying to be mean or anything just a genuine question-
does this mean that the table bus trick is fixed?
Thanks in advance for the answer!!!
i’ve just done the air trial... the breeze is blowing🌬
That's the thing though, you really should speak from your heart, from your perspective. You cannot truly know what another person is feeling and it is inconsiderate to speak on their behalf without their permission.
Ah, it's really interesting that information from beta getting "leaked" is actually relevant for feedback... Makes sense though 
AW MAN
Oh well ehehe-
Thanks TGC for your hard work ✨ and thank you for answering the question too! Have a good day everyone 💖
Ktjn, thanks for all you do! 😌💖
Beta isn't under NDA—that information is not a "leak"
Goodbye table glitch 
What do you mean by "players can no longer be forcefully moved with the Table by another player"?
people have already made youtube videos on it, even though it's no where near ready to go to live if it does 
causes some confusion for those who don't have all of the info
I missed some things while in sky 
so we can't move people by holding hands anymore?
@north girder It’s kinda hard to explain and I don’t think it usually happened on accident. The table force has long been used as an exploit to get past certain areas, defeating some of the intentional mechanisms and difficulties put in place by the dev and story teams.
unless it's hacked info, but that's a different topic entirely.
Did the difficulty adjustments make the trials easier or harder?
That's why I put "leak" in quotes, yeah. 
@rugged pivot see my comment to Sophie
Ill always support TGC. They are hands down my favorite game studio ever and I’ve made some of my best and dearest friends in Sky and that will always be priceless. But I want Sky to continue to have that unique feeling it has of openness and equality and community, where we all help eachother. The new TS system i feel contradicts that. I’ll leave more feedback. Thank you as always Kjtn for engaging with us.
If we were trying to hide what we were doing in beta, we wouldn't have these channels publicly accessible. every tester would be under NDA.
i understand ktjn , it's certainly not nice to be in the hot seat all the time, but a decision has to be made regardless, and i respect that.

@woeful lodge ahhh icic I only know about the holding hands one and oobing through the wall i didnt know there are more ways to use it. thanks!
does it means i can no longer move table with holding hands? i dont get itt
I usually end up loving most of the things TCG implements anyways. I only miss radar for knowing if my server was full (like if a friend can’t warp to me for some reason)
Guys I don't have a table in beta, but I just wanna know, did they get rid of this trick(https://youtu.be/N9NHIiSK1II) with the recent update or the holding hands one?
i hear @olive wolf is giving out... treats!
Aw man, which table glitch is gone? I don’t really understand that part of the update.
it means the table teleport has been patched iirc
Did the difficulty adjustments make the trials easier or harder?
is this the wrong time to ask
im pretty sure the table glitch involved you being able to teleport around with the table after sitting on it iirc?
@north girder Thats the one yeah, but it’s used for more than just oobing, it’s also used for bypassing doors and areas.
The update just dropped so no one has had time to even see the kind of changes made
i dont have table in beta so i dont know....
table teleport still works after you’ve sat at it 
And Android players can't even update yet! 
OH sorry! i didnt see when it was sent
you could table from office to inside the space station, instantly, lol. kind of a crazy glitch
Kinda wanna see how change is fire trial difficulty
At the end of the day, us at TGC are human, we're prone to errors and mistakes just like you are. That doesn't mean those decisions were made with malice. We're not here to give people a bad time or create a bad experience. We're people who just want to create fun, memorable experiences and we care so, so deeply about the impact of our decisions.
if anyonr wants to do fire trial with me to see the adjustments hmu 👀
I left the fire trial at area 3 after 14 minutes, I can say the most noticeable chances are candle spots turning into candle clusters at areas where the 🦉 passes, little warning as to what’s gonna come and a place to hunker down
Don’t worry it’s still pretty hard, there’s a reason why I left, but it doesn’t make me wanna cry anymore 
@steady pond they got rid of being able to tableport yourself and someone else at the same time a long time ago, but this update makes it so you can’t move someone else, which was still possible after the tableport fix.
ooooooo looks like i'll have to go in soon then
cool
@steady pond they got rid of being able to tableport yourself and someone else at the same time a long time ago, but this update makes it so you can’t move someone else, which was still possible after the tableport fix.
@woeful lodge
Ok but does this ( https://youtu.be/N9NHIiSK1II) trick still work or no?
How many kids could a skybot trick if a skybot could trick kids?
you can still teleport someone else who has sat at your table with this patch though. just tried it
Wait..there is big pile of candle on fire trial?
also kai...

So you just can’t teleport solo anymore?
but Aeras I was being a good beta tester and breaking the patch XD
Am every now and then there are three candles in a bunch instead of 1 to light up
Also I don’t remember if it was a feature before or not but the prompt to light the lantern comes earlier than the prompt to light the candle,
@olive wolf sorry I can’t watch the video right now, could you please dm that to me?
well to me , one way to slightly balanced out the beta ts system is to lower down the prices of AP by 1-2 dollars
you're not a good beta tester if you don't get your good amount of sneep snorp 
I've heard a rumour that mods don't know what sneep snorp is because they're always here 
@olive wolf thats the one that got patched out
Ohh..okie..but google so slow with update
once it took google 12 hrs to update 
google be hibernating, not sneeping
Too much sneep snorp is a thing thou
looks at last weekend after I fell asleep at 10 and slept through my 9 am alarm
@olive wolf thats the one that got patched out
@steady pond
Darn and I just learned that trick recently, I even did an oob with it that I couldn't do before.
One time android got an update before iOS did, or was that live 
Yeah. That was a surprise. 
I mean there’s been android specific updates before 
why does nobody ask for me? 
Who gave Android Gatorade? 
they removed table warp glitch? 
Skybot I asked for you so many times before and you never came 
Is anyone else having trouble updating, or is my internet just really slow right now?
Was it table warp or table driving? I'm not sure what they mean. Table driving has some steps to it's technically not 'by force'... Table warping however...
It was table warping
apparently, table warping still works. someone here tried it already
Have they tried table driving?
The only time that i experienced google ahead of ios when major update for Sanctuary at live server..after that google way more far behind..
hm. I honestly don't really like the table warping thing... my friends often annoy me with it and it's just

Wait, what's the difference beteween table warping and table driving?

speaking of shrug, someone is arriving tonight 
yes yes 
is table warp patched.... now how am i supposed to cr in wasteland
old gramps is back
Finally the one time I don’t have to camp out by a ts location, I can just raid him in home 
With my... 69 candles I am gonna die
Table warp takes you to the end of the level immediately (hence the 'warp' in the name). Table driving is you hold your friend's hand, your friend offers to another friend who is offering to you, and you move your table around.
Table driving needs consent. Table warping does not.
senior shrug is coming back! 
is table driving the thing thats patched?
My first enchantment spirit... and my iPad is STILL confiscated. Considering stealing my iPad from my parents just to get the cape and leave.
I didn't realize there were such tricks with the table and now I'm genuinely curious 
you can still try it out in live @hollow cloak
I never do that table thingy..but if tgc patch it..i respect that..
I've done table driving to candle run wasteland before. table warp is... a bit irritating
I only recently learned how to do the table checkpoint/backwards warp thing, warping to the end of the level or driving is completely new to me 
table warp is useful when i cr in ark so i dont have to fly back to the boat

Table driving is fun, especially when you're on the driver's back and you're watching everyone freak out.
if i understand correctly table warp (where you place a table a nd warp back to it using menu manipulation) is patched , but table driving (friend sits and offers hand on your table) is still okay
the reason for the patch was people were using it for trolling
The reason I say this is my friends often table warp me in the home space, where there is no "end," your friends can just warp you around
🔹 Players can no longer be forcefully moved with the Table by another player
Keyword: Forcefully.
Table driving requires consent.
Which means...
I have hope.
It really sucks if you can’t teleport alone anymore, rip my solo candle runs...
i can sit out this ts, all i need is the heart and wing buff 
although table warp won't work on u if u didn't sat on ur friend table
well just cr manually, like what the game intended you to do, i suppose :'D
if ur friend trollin u why would u stay around them in the first place sigh
im not sure in beta; but in live it works for me if its just one or two friends 🥺 > although table warp won't work on u if u didn't sat on ur friend table
@fluid quail
trollers are using bait for moths to sit on their table so they can warp the moths to krills
ohnoo they fixed the table teleportation glitch :(((
That's the thing, they often get me when I'm sitting at their table, also I usually log off if they troll me, ahaha-
trollers are using bait for moths to sit on their table so they can warp the moths to krills
Ohhhh shoot, that is a problem! Patch it! Patch it!!
We don't wanna give moths a bad time in the game. Period.
Me who doesnt have a table : well ill just listen then--
trollers are using bait for moths to sit on their table so they can warp the moths to krills
![]()
understandably the glitch had pros and cons, and the cons weighted out the pros. Hence it is patched
i just want table teleportation to only work on urself, so i can still cr in wasteland
After testing it in live (not holding hands teleport) I totally understand why they patched it. Ya it’s annoying if someone use this glitch to troll ppl
trollers are using bait for moths to sit on their table so they can warp the moths to krills
Oh that’s terrible...I’ve only been using it for areas like sanctuary or ark..
I just tried the force table move in beta and I can still move my buddy around including through walls so I’m not sure what got fixed.
i just want table teleportation to only work on urself, so i can still cr in wasteland
the patch says it doesn't work in other ppl so... i think it still works on u ? that's my question
the patch says it doesn't work in other ppl so... i think it still works on u ? that's my question
@fluid quail oh yaaaay
we gotta find out ourselves
we are bug hunters after all
I'm going to have to learn more table glitches... 
.......tomorrow, because I need to sleep 
I just tried the force table move in beta and I can still move my buddy around including through walls so I’m not sure what got fixed.
android didn't get the patch yet so idk! I'm waiting to update n try
I just tried the force table move in beta and I can still move my buddy around including through walls so I’m not sure what got fixed.
@woeful lodge are u doing the sit and offer hand technique? i think that isnt patched
@woeful lodge are u doing the sit and offer hand technique? i think that isnt patched
@bright portal That’s what I thought the notes meant so that’s what I tried
no they mean the other bug
The gliding your friend on table is not patched, the table teleportation is patched
I am unable to duplicate the solo long table warp in Beta, but I’ve never done it before so that’s not necessarily a solid test.
you can teleport someone too if they sat on the table before, some players are abusing this and bully other players, it might get patched for this reason...
My friend said her capeless bud got thrown into the wastekand storm because someone table warp them into strom
it is patched for sure.
people were using that to move others maliciously, so it was patched out.
quoting ktjn, so yes it is because of tht reason
Good thing it was patched. I see people trolling with it and sometimes it gets annoying
ugh this is why we can't have nice things....trolls
ikr 
But I always wonder about the difficulty adjustment. Is it harder or toned down. Hmmmm.
i think based on the amount of feedbacks on general chat alone, i'd assume easier 
The update's on android now! 
the testflight said 'reduced difficulty' on both fire and air trial
cant imagine breaking your device because of trials
My mind broke because of air trial and fire
i was half expecting a 11th wedge visual update for this patch but guess not 
Damn no more table surfing.. Why???!!!
like the sit and offer hand one geralt? you can still do that
You can also still table warp too
i couldn't reproduce the solo table teleportation using the menu spam thing, all good
RIP MY EDEN RUN ;-;
I did it once, but couldn't do it again on the new build
like the sit and offer hand one geralt? you can still do that
@bright portal oh we can do the sit and offer hand teleportation?
yes
Cool thx😁
good luck puffkin!
i haven't been in beta for a while, might test for the fire trial later too
we shall raid the trialsss 
Are trials easier now 🥺
currently in air trial:
dont know if it's just my skykid's height is taller in beta
but the winds feels less aggressive i think
ohh they added an extra check point for the triple geysers, thats nicee
sent a vid to #beta-screenshots-videos
I can't get the last jump in air...how do I get to the bat shrine? I've always done it before....?
they might have increase the height of the wall to the bat shrine
i didint test that out the shortcut :"D
The ice floe doesn't seem to go high enough for me to jump. I don't know the shortcut 😭
i sent a vid in screenshots channel, for me ii have no issues with the geyser, they feel more easier to control for me now
I have no control what so ever
I can't even spin in the air like I could before..always willing to believe it's just me, but I have completed this many times until tonight.
ah i didint do any spins, i just played it super casually
oh wait the update's out on android? 
yis meg
sweet, will test it out during the weekend 
so from what i know , the changes for T of Air:
- one extra checkpoint for the triple geysers part to the end shrine
- winds and geysers are less aggressive
good to know 
@bright portal somehow I ended up to the left of that last geyser...now I have to backtrack to get blown over to the shrine. Thx for your vid.
why did they have to remove the awesome table friendo moving feature,, 
because there were people griefing with it. some would force people into krill 
i sent a vid in screenshots channel, for me ii have no issues with the geyser, they feel more easier to control for me now
@bright portal
Have you tested the last jump out if the candles are already lit? I could only get across if I made it with the very first try lighting manually. Otherwise, I am not able to get high enough to cross
sad, why do people gotta ruin good things, I'd use it when my friends are afk in gw, move them out for krill sight/toxic water/rain
@bright portal
Have you tested the last jump out if the candles are already lit? I could only get across if I made it with the very first try lighting manually. Otherwise, I am not able to get high enough to cross
@static ferry both ways for me seems alright
So after refresh anyone from beta could get 150 wings?
That’d require having all the travelling spirits’ wing buffs so far as well, so it’s not something that every beta player could do right away
I think some people manage
when i use the return shrine on T of fire the candles i initially lit has unlited, is that normal? i did not test the previous versions
Yeah that’s normal 
Yes can confirm it too
i am so beyond lost in trial of fire
Omg ... I really hope the trials are not made too easy 😭
im still stuck in a checkpoint cuz there's like multiple paths to go 
I’m going to test now ... I can’t wait anymore
I know where you are actually cause I got stuck there before 
Someone sent me a YouTube vid link here of them doing the trial which was how I got past it (lemme see if I can find it real quick)
thanks cat
im tired and i need a guide there 
Can I dm it to you? Can’t remember rn if we’re allowed to share external links in the server but I think the answer might be no 
yup a dm is alright
Omg they have spoiled the air trials ... now I’m stuck on a checkpoint that spoils the last bit .... aghhhhhhhh ...... take it away god ... why omg .. tgc sort it out
/ #beta-feedback, friend?
For what it’s worth spookycat, I’ve shared YouTube links on the server in the context of visual references to certain parts of the game and I haven’t received any warnings about it, but someone correct me if that’s not what we’re supposed to do
we can't move friends on table anymore? 
Now I’m forced to do the air trial the way that players who can’t do it do ... how is this fair ???
you still can @odd field 
you can do the table surf/ warp (with friends sitting and offering hand) but not the other one (warping back to table with the menu manipulation technique)
hello can sm answer what's the point of fixing table?
like, it wouldn't have affected newbies
the glitch can be used to teleport players who sit on your table, aand can be used to warp.players to krills and other locations
@latent flume #beta-discussion message
oh, is this bug, when someone puts table on someone and this person gets trapped on other table? (sort of that lmao
)
you can back read a little in the link I sent, there some users explain the trick
k, ty
I’m dreading what they have done to fire trials , probably given a fire extinguisher for the fire devils
some single white candles are change to a bundle (like 3-4 candles together), i think that's it
Ahhh I don't have a table in beta yet. So I can't test it. Is the self-teleport trick patched already?
tried it and didint work, i believe so
it is merry, yeah -- trying to put the table on top of yourself when it's been placed somewhere else simply causes the table to get placed on your new position, rather than it staying at the old one
Okay 😂 thx
Btw, re 150 wings: most players won't be able to get it at reset, because we didn't get all TS in beta. However, there was a glitch in Eden, where a whole seasonal constellation was available and people could get wing buffs from that, making it possible to reach 150wl/11 wings.
i think some people are already at 11 flaps because of that glitch
I will have 149 in live after I gone eden ... in beta I’m miles apart
Yes I remember that time when all seasonal spirits are in beta Eden
spearmonkey, yes, someone posted about it during last TS, right?
Please try not to denigrate people for struggling with the difficulty of trials and our subsequent adjustments to accommodate, not everyone has the same skillsets or accessibility needs.
yeah, i remember seeing conversation happen about that at some point, around the last TS sounds about right
i dont know if anyone remembered this, there's this one time in live if you didint update the game, a different ts came out (fur cape spirit) , so technically someone had to bought a wingbuff from that spirit, no? 
Being forced to take the easy way out ain’t fair ... and being forced to skip my favourite part of the trials ....how’s this equal for both sides
If only sky has difficulty choices
for example Like three modes you can choose : easy, medium, difficult, and INSANE
okay that's 4 modes
i think we already have a setting for the "INSANE" mode -- it's called the capeless glitch 
...which i suppose is just "trial mode" 
I found the Air trial impossible...until I tried it with a controller. I have to go to work now, but I'll definitely be testing the trial again later today.
Yeah right

You could always make it harder by not activating the checkpoints 
...oh no, it's a "4 player" quest today 
Well, Kai will have no troubles there.
Wait til kai gets up and warp to them 
Oh wait... its midnight for me. I should sneep
Skybrah's fun fact of the day: 8 hour sneep snorp a day keeps Dark Dragons away 
I tried not doing checkpoint in the previous build (Not today's build). There's a bug that would teleport you back to the startpoint if you don't do checkpoint. I was gonna report it but skybot was sneep that day
So does this mean that we can’t do table oobs anymore??
we can still table oob
the "return warp" won't work anymore, but the other one where you can move a player around who's sitting in a chair should still work
ooo difficulty adjustments, is fire trial simpler now?

Cheers
going back to the old way of doing forgotten ark without the table is a bit more oof than i thought it would be 
Hey can anyone say if we can go elder rooms now using table trick. Thank you
it is merry, yeah -- trying to put the table on top of yourself when it's been placed somewhere else simply causes the table to get placed on your new position, rather than it staying at the old one
@sullen relic
Yes it happened to me too! No more teleportations for anybody
i don't believe there was ever an unpatch for the elder room thing up until now? haven't heard of one so far
Well we couldn't go elder rooms using table teleport trick via meditation before
We can't move table while mediating.
It made impossible to go isle, forest and wasteland elder room
yes, and i don't believe they ever made another patch to re-allow that -- i haven't heard of anyone visiting the elder rooms by putting a friend in there with a table ever since
Man i really miss those elder rooms.. specially isle elder area.. that was so pretty
Anyway thanks for answering spearmonkey
I wish TGC could fix the table teleportation for the table owner solo. The candle run was quicker and less boring in loneliness. I try it and it doesn’t work anymore 🥺😩
Elder rooms are possible but you need a friend with warp
using the table to candle run faster was technically an exploit—manipulating game mechanics to gain advantage over others that impacts power or the game economy. While that wasn't the reason for this fix, it is a side-effect of our attempts to address malicious and poorly-intentioned behavior.
nvm it got solved
It's not exactly an exploit, it's just less flying to get from candle to candle... It doesn't really do much about the economy; we still get our 17.5 candles a day so I don't think that's malicious or poor-intentioned behavior... being weird while people are talking and moving the table everywhere definitely isn't cool though.
i already miss the table teleport so sad
lovely candles... now i can know easily the safety zone in the Fire Trial
and still got lost lol
rubberbanding across the map to farm wax is still problematic, but to reiterate: that is NOT why this change to the table was made. We actually weren't aware people were using this glitch to farm wax until after the fix went in. What I referred to as malicious behavior was people griefing strangers by warping them without their consent.
Yes and that is very annoying
No matter what I do someone lights the checkpoint and the whole experience of the air trial is spoiled for me
iPhone 12 ... Hmmmmmmmm
And I didn't know they used it to attack players with krill. When someone taught me the trick I could only think of the ark and the sanctuary saving time to farm. Although I am not surprised that they have used it to annoy players, as they currently use the friendship warp to bring krill to them. But I don't think it's bad to use it as a time saver to farm alone, it's like saying that having a chibi mask gives you an advantage over other players because of everything you can do with it when no one helps you at the gates.
Can i ask if tgc had started developing optimization for iphone 12 before it was announced ? I guess its a yes
can we warp stranger with table warp? all i know is we can only warp if we hold hands with them.. and we cant hold hands with grey players
as far as i know, strangers could only be warped if they had sat at your table (which activates the collision for them)
yeah same here
You didn't need to sit to be teleported by another. I'm not sure about warping strangers 😅
table warp has been the most amazing feature of table so far.. when i fell of my table from difficult place to reach, i can always know i can get back to it.. now i cant anymore. and it made me so sad. please weight the pros and cons before carrying it to live huhuhu.. i think its more beneficial and not all players are malicious.
We didn't develop optimizations before the iphone 12 was announced. The crash was a graphics-related fix and not something that took a lot of time to implement.
Difficulty adjustment....lower or higher? 
lower
ahhhh TGC is feeling bad for us 
Guess they want it to be more accessible to players, rip my long term dream of being an Uber for the trials
Elius, there will always be demands, no worry :)
on the flipside, it's probably worth considering that the trials are probably fine to us as more experienced players -- they probably aren't so easy for newbie moths who've only joined the game recently and get hit in the face with the trials as their first taste of a season 
Trials shouldn’t be catered to newbies or moths though
the update says that the bug with the table has been fixed. but I have tested now and everything is fine. is it like that for everyone?
I dont think its that much easier Elius
but you wouldn't want to make them inaccessible for players still developing their flight skills after only one or two weeks here either i would think, or the ones who've only completed eden once
That was that main exploring tool . I newer used it for candel run. That was that only game which had more to give . Now thanks to .... It's losing its charm . I am a grown up with my one kids and I loved that this game had something more . You could go behind walls and explore . Find something New . Not all player are hire just for candel run. We have explorers ....
that being said, i might be running with a bit of a logical fallacy here since the trials don't rely so much on flight and more on platforming that none of us really used prior to this season 
now that actually makes me wonder how the experience differs between older players and newer ones
Well I just done the fire trials in 4 minutes ... is this some sort of joke.......why even change it .. now I won’t be playing trials anymore ... thanks tgc
I completely understand the need for accessibility but I do think that if you applied that knowledge to everything sky will just get too easy and dull
It seems to me that there is a new breed of players, who rely heavily on (table) glitches and oob for their whole experience of the game. We all play differently, but I think we need to remember that the game wasn’t made to be all about that.
I don't have much time to play I have work I have house I have kid . And a few minutes I get for the game should give me all I want form the game . I spent money on the game real money to make events and give passes and I have the wright to enjoy myself in the game when I play .
This was the only game that was different and different isn't worst
We can’t demand that unintended features stay forever, especially if they also cause trolling or bad behaviour.
As a player since the first season I’ve pretty much done all I can, so tricks and challenge really liven up the game for me. I think sky is a great game, but It could really help if it had features that made the experience as fun as it used to be when I first picked up the game. Tables and oobs are pretty nice to play around with in their current form anyway.
Mostly the explorers are grown-up people who spent real money on the game . Trolling it's an excuse ......
okay quick question. by ‘difficulty adjustments’, do they mean easing the difficult, or adding more difficult?
the thing is though, the feature was never intended to be possible, as blep said. sooner or later it would be patched, especially if its causing issues in terms of consent
i guess not everyone can get what they want.
it was a nice bug to play around with while it's available.
and i grief for those who used it for bad intentions.
the game is repetitive and get us bored, its true if you doing candle running everyday. thats why there is also explorations.
and explorers are not new breeds of players. they are mostly vets. cuz they know the how tos. lol.
and exploring is one feature of the game. or else why would there be the role explorer here, or artifacts and items hidden everywhere around the realms.
From update description on app stores it's easier now @spark lance
@latent oar oh thats gon be fun. thank you!
Yes it’s easier too easy ... not really a fair decision to have done this ...I’m done with the trials .,, thanks tgc
I mean, at the end of the day, very few games last for more than a year until players move on and find something else. It is ok to not play as often or as much. I love that the seasons make me want to stay on, but I definitely don’t play as much as I used to.
Yes it’s easier too easy ... not really a fair decision to have done this ...I’m done with the trials .,, thanks tgc
@desert mango the fire trial?

@hollow compass and if we take away the charm the there will be less players
Yes the fire trials I just done in 4 minutes solo.. too easy and not fun anymore .. I didn’t die once
oh wait this means i won’t regret my life choices whilst constantly dying in fire trial. now im sad.
Well Samuel is a daily trail runner, it's hard to use this as reference for everyone
Hmm, i am one of the players that found it super hard to complete after its first update, and in terms of everyone who does eden every week I’m glad they reduced the difficulty a little
Tgc have issues with destroying their own game constantly..I’m done with it for now ... until it gets fixed .. being forced to do things the way that bores me and gives me no reason to bother playing again is disappointing
me too. i’m sad there won’t be much of a challenge anymore, but seeing how ||a handful of friends have left the game because air is so difficult||, honestly i think it’s for the best
Left the game because the air trial is too difficult? That’s dramatic as hell
How can people quit the game over a seasonal feature? This sounds like they were just looking for an easy way out tbh...
This is a mobile game. It’s probably not meant to be as advanced or difficult as a regular console/computer game, simply because of the format. It is definitely different to a lot of other things available and that is amazing. But perhaps we need to be more realistic in our expectations? Ideally, I should be able to play this on my commute to work, not spend hours upon hours trying to complete a trial that has no real significance to the rest of the game (other than one heart and a wl).
well i aint gon judge
but at least any newer players won’t feel helpless getting stuck at that 3-jump bit
oh. they toned down the trials. gotta test it later. my last fire run lasted 1 hour and 45 mins hahaha
or yk if they really want the element of challenge, maybe add two difficulty levels? just a thought
Test it ... don’t need testing ... my friends that struggle with trials are upset even ... people want that challenge ... it’s what they liked about them
two difficulty levels would be ideal, but whether that's an easy implementation would be another question most likely
people asking for an easier way of doing something in a game like sky is fair cause sky is not trying to challenge you or pushing you to be better with the controllers (also these are smartphone controllers wich are a complete different story from what most people use like keyboard and/or console controllers)
I don't think they should be called out for it and we should respect their opinion over the trials
yup. I raged quit on beta and live but did'nt rant cause it's a TRIAL for a reason
i fell ya i did fire just now and after [insert ridiculous number] deaths and i just sat there screaming “WHAT IS THE POINT”.
btw anyone checked if this changes is here or not
#beta-discussion message
Remember everyone that this the most prominent new type of gameplay that we’ve seen since the live launch. TGC are still testing the waters and who knows maybe even harder challenges will come next season but i think its a good idea to ease us into it, as it was said previously the game overall isn’t very challenging. Better to not throw us into the deep end and rather let everyone get used to it first.
Oh well tgc can do what they want but this time it’s a one sided change and not fair on those who want to be challenged ... it’s almost like I’m being told to go play another game
It is also not fair for those who just want to socialize on game and not wanting to be challenged.
Socialise then on Facebook
the difficulty makes it more fun actually. the laugh and bonding during those times also is what makes it special, a competition with friends makes it enjoyable too
Yes exactly ... my friends who find them very hard want them hard for them reasons
whether everyone may react the same way to it may be a different question though: the trials each have a winged light there, so being unable to get it (or else only getting it after quite a long struggle each week) may leave players feeling differently
I originally thought, the trials were meant to be, as other past seasonal quests, optional. I also thought, as their name indicates, they were meant to challenge players. It seems people have taken it to heart that if they can’t complete a trial then its difficulty should be lowered. I don’t agree with this philosophy of making everything accessible all the time. Mind you, the portals and realms act as limitations so new players can’t go to Eden or GW right away. Trials should be inherently difficult (or have a fair amount of difficulty) so as to be a part of the game you can visit when you desire to be challenged.
NOOO THE TABLE GLITCH IS PATCHED
Then whats the point of Sky if there's facebook in which you suggest to socialize in game?
I spent money on the game to have fun now the fun is gone I want my money back🤣 🤣 🤣

The fire trial was too difficult to complete solo for the majority, and with the current server glitches and even hopping onto a ghost server with no one around i think lowering the difficulty is a good choice until those main issues are ironed out
lol
in the end, you have to remember this is a kids game. there’s a more likely chance for a younger person to play this than an adult.
so easing on the challenge is good for the kids. because you adults may be able to tolerate 2 hours of rage, but someone younger most probably may not.
sometimes a little bit of empathy goes a long way eh
I spent money on the game to have fun now the fun is gone I want my money back🤣 🤣 🤣

@valid pagoda Sorry to hear that but things don’t work that way. I spent money on my car and now it’s old and slow, not fun anymore 😂
I want more difficulties, adventures and exploring oobs rather than just too peaceful way to relax. ^^
Same
actually, early interviews with jenova about the game suggest that it wasn't just a game for kids -- it was meant to be a game that even non-gamers should be able to pick up and play; they pretty much have that down pat for the core part of the game, but i suppose the trials in particular might be up for discussion on that point
prophecy cave is like a holy place for me. it's sacred in it's own otherworldly feel.
@valid pagoda Sorry to hear that but things don’t work that way. I spent money on my car and now it’s old and slow, not fun anymore 😂
@placid linden buy a volvo 🤣 it's fun eaven when it's old
to everyone the only options are to just leave feedback about it like ig a lot of people who find it too difficult did it (you can also keep the discussion about it with everyone here while being respectful to the people who think and want something different than you) or as the ToS says:
You will not engage in acts of revenge, disparagement or retaliation against us for any feature contained in or modification made to our Games that you dislike. Your sole remedy for that is to stop playing that Game.
true, but lowering age requirements for downloads, insisting this is a game for younger people, and that we’re playing as kids pretty much sealed it.
Talking about that the game is just mostly for kids then why most of good (best)cosmetics needs money
Kids don't have money and not all parents agrees to give money for spending in game
because this is not a fashion game where we strut around with the best cosmetics. that’s why ts exists
Amio all games have flashy items? That argument is a fallacy
but candle running with cosmetics you really feel good wearing makes the game more fun and exciting for me. (ehem, today I'm dumbledore)
because this is not a fashion game where we strut around with the best cosmetics. that’s why ts exists
@spark lance it's not about fashion it's about to have a characthair
sure. but no one said u have to spend money on it.
All the hype about how hard the fire trials are is gonna have people laughing .....
The air trials have actually been ruined by the new checkpoint ... that is definitely something that should not have been put their ... anyways ... booored boredom bored
sure. but no one said u have to spend money on it.
@spark lance or you have the time or you have the money I don't have time but I do have the posility to spend the money I give hearts I give passes so
before i throw the apple that holds The Point™️ and yall miss catching it, I said that in the context of ‘if it’s for kids then why are the cool cosmetics iap’.
congratulations?
The game made me happy and I want to make others happy, so I buy stuff and give .
okay cristina i never said u cant do that. i do that too. other adults do that. however this argument has a context and u missed that somehow
same here! tgc makes me happy so i buy items as support and a sign of my gratitude
And all I want is to have the posibily to explore . That's all
Tha small amount of time I have . I want it to be quality time
i do too. if this is about the table (idk) im disappointed too. but as old as that bug is it’s not intended gameplay and well. if it bothers you so much, u can always leave them a nice feedback
@desert mango Maybe you and your friends could challenge yourselves to make the trial harder? Try to skip a candle for every one you light? Try to complete it in under 2 minutes. Etc ect i know its not ideal but its something 
or create a game which is more challenging
I’m disappointed in the checkpoint I’m forced to use in air trials ... which spoils the fun of the last part ... @hasty vessel yep your right ...it’s just the air trials I have issues with now
Hold my chair
the lowering difficulty of the trials is probably from the amount of feedback taken into consideration from live as well. I'm sure they made the decision for a reason.
For someone like me , who just tested the fire trial in comparison with the first fire trial, it wasn't difficult but infuriating to navigate on the third floor 
Hmm okay, i still need to do a run through them both
Remember that the point of beta is to test new things and ideas. I’m pretty sure that TGC will listen to our feedback about this update 
I posted all the changes to air trials in screenshots
thanks my friend
they are trying very hard to balance the trials, you can't please both ways 
If you can’t please both way then keep it hard then
that's up to tgc and we don't know how many people are in both ways, maybe there's more people that want an "easier" way
imo i would say the current version seems pretty okay to me , it's a medium difficulty for casual players who don't play platform games, to me i just see trials as a fun playground to go to with friends
same here^^ i can’t see any problem with the new air trial? i think the main thing they changed is the power of the wind gusts when you are moving about
it’s still a little challenging and you still need to time your moves
i still took 20 minutes at the fire trial third floor
i didint even know where to go especially after i used the return shrine and the candles were unlit
The air trials changes are the last part with new checkpoint and one gust taken away from island that drops you to last part and one floating island raised higher to make it easier to jump on and off
The new ts system I want ...Giving away paid items for free in Ts ain’t right ... ... paid players also candle farm and give their time ...change needs to come
oh i see, this is the main area people had problems with during live. they even found a way to bypass those platforms and make it straight to the shrine
If you wanted to chain all three islands to complete you can’t .. when someone lights the checkpoint your forced to take the boring way which took the fun out for me
Please also don’t forget that most beta players are experienced players which might not be the case in the live version. We might see difficulty differently than others. There is no way TGC can please everyone. I often think back my moth days and how miserable i was with controls, and try to imagine the features we test from that perspective too.
dang and i was just starting to like the current air trial, time to test this version
can't imagine a moth who can't even fly properly and bonk into walls encounter air trial before the toggle was added in live 
remember when we were moths bonking on walls and losing winged lights like what the hell happened
remove wall collision happened 
sad 😔
The controls ? Since I picked up sky the controls have been the best on any game on mobile and still are ... for me and every single friend I have ( yes we have spoke deeply about sky ) theirs not much I can do about the new update apart from get as many people who agree with me to vote against in feedback as I can ...
tbh, i can see this game being successful on mobile - because of the whole anyone can play this game concept. But when it's on pc / console.. idk, wonder how it'll go
I’m the non gamer type, but sky caught me and never released. So from this perspective yes controls aren’t easy to get used to. 
even if they are the best in the mobile platform they can't be compared to other platforms like consoles and pc, they have a different learning curve even and is fair if a lot of people find it too hard and decide just not learn them cause sky doesn't demand you to be a pro to complete all
this skip is defunct, rip: #seasons-events-chat message
no more skips 
What do they mean by “Players can no longer be forcefully moved with the Table by another player”? I don’t have the table in beta, so I don’t know what this means .
it's referring to them patching up a table glitch which can teleport you back where you initially place the table
Oh no! I loved that glitch! 
anyway i wanna add,
if a feature has been mis-used and they removed it bcoz of this,
then they shud remove warping too.
bcoz some players used it for malicious purposes like getting their unknowing friends krilled.
if thats the reason why they removed table warp. just remove the warp too.
we can't have nice things, thanks to the grievers once again
you can block a friend or block the warp feature with who use warp in a malicious way tho
the difference with friend warps is that if it's done to a "friend", the friend can choose to block said player so as not to deal with it again
the problem with the table one when compared in that scenario is that it can be done on non-friends and strangers
i think the minor difference is you need to unlock warp with your friend, so there is some consent there plus the friend has a choice to warp to the other friend
the table however , u can forcefully warp random players
we just need a way to get in and out of sanctuary for candle runs easily 
ride the mantas
You can? I thought it only applied to the player themselves. I see the potential problem now.
we just need a way to get in and out of sanctuary for candle runs easily
@kindred bluff just go home and enter realm again
Btw. How many stars we have now. Excluding the travelling and trial stars
aint got no time for that!
i gotta zoom zoom
very annoying in large groups, so just ride the mantas
icouldn't read oops
the problem with sanctuary and ark is that all the other non seasonal areas have two exits to travel through, backtracking kinda sucks 
hang on, "Excluding the travelling and trial stars" though -- if we exclude all travelling spirit buffs as well as the trials, wouldn't that just be 88 + 39 (the regular constellation spirits), as that question's phrased?
wooah off topic but my discord just blacked out when i tried to quote somebody LOL
the app's called "discord", did you expect it to be organised? 
Oh well.
It was fun while it lasted.
you get no consent from the friend who warp to you. only if you wanna warp to someone the game will ask "warp to this fren?"
we dont get the same notif "this fren wanna warp to u, accept him?"
i know some frens who play with krills for fun cuz they r bored. and use warping to us after he get seen by krills. so we all get krilled.
its not so funny.
and yeah we can block the warp after.
just like table, how many chances you will meet the same stranger twice.
Hello
its like tinted black now and my keyboard is brightt 
(also i was quoting the person who said warping should be removed for its malicious griefing with krill, couldnt the krill warp glitch be fixed instead of the warping altogether? 
i hv send a feed back. and the reasoning given made me think of the same way warp was abused.
we were supposed to have the ability to block warp for certain friends at some point, but i don't remember seeing it implemented come to think of it
Sky a kids game ????, it wouldn’t surprise me if the majority of the players were ‘grownups’. If I remember correctly, to play the beta on the beginning, it had an age restriction of 16 or 18 +?!
to be fair, the range of warp is not as long as the table bug, also if you tp to them to see them wasteland or anywhere dangerous, i think it's safe to say you would know can get some sort of idea it would be dangerous to warp.
There's still a difference , warp is still a choice while table glitch is forced
which table glitch are we talking about again? im a bit late lolol
are we talking about the new one that kidnaps you back into the place where you initially put it?
@pulsar blade , 92?? In beta , with trials
let's say you joined their server and they are in wasteland graveyard, by sense you should be careful about warping to them
i dont think what i wrote is understood.
not me warping to them. but fren warping to you bringing the krill
@vapid drum thanks. I lost count since im on other focus.
ah i see, but he's your friend, both of u chose to unlock warp with each other
if he's deliberately trolling you and your friends by bringing krills , then that's not nice
I lost count too 😂I had to look it up myself last week
but i understand what u mean now
, you can bring it up to tgc and see their thoughts
you see, i played abt 5months now. cr is tiring and boring now. i am not forced to do it but i need to do it or else i wont hv candles to buy cosmetics.
table warp is a nice addition to help cr a bit more fun.
and addition to that is a new way to explore. its so much fun.
i was just trying to gv posiive things can be done with it. in hope it will stay.
but if later it came to live, at least i have defended my case nicely
i am happy that it is being read hehe
i kinda agree with that haha, but honestly im just a guy who thinks glitches are fun and server merges suck (i mean, i dont think my table gets thanos snapped when servers merge like my friends
)
and i love the update abt trials. i dont hv to waste too much time for a wing
i personally never had an attachment of it, because i know this will probably be patched eventually. who know tgc will bring it back in a different form where u can only tp yourself and your friends u hold hands with ^^
again just want a closure that i hope i didint offend anyone here
Warp is dangerous I warpt to a friend when it was kriled . And I lost wings but why no one asking to take away the warp. The table is an wonderful tool the best I would say and it was the first tool for me to buy
wait, imagine if you're a moth and you get the prairie temple pin
sky speedrun 
being a moth and already buying merch
5 mins into thr game and already check thatskyshop 
oh boy, just wait until krill shield is eventually patched, i rarely use it anymore
that's a good question actually, whether the pin teleport destinations override your progress flags -- i'd imagine that the pin wouldn't work before you've been to prairie temple though
krill shield? 
home trick, to avoid losing stars
ohh lolol, thats been around for ages and even if it was patched i would still have 200 more glitches to go! 
i can already see 5 minute cooldown in gen chat when home shield is gone
For a month the home trik is life saving
yeah, my point being is that too many rely on this glitch, its almost a feature at this point
also, i wish there was a vault and wasteland temple pin if it doesnt overrride your progress/ needs have to complete all the levels to warp
agree dark , everytime i see someone saying they got krilled there's always a reply "just use home shield, it's easy"
I don't use it anymore but imagine wat it gives to a month.
oh you used a glitch to avoid taking damage from a krill? list every krill glitch
It helped me explore and lern wasteland
i feel like teaching the home trick to a moth before they've been to eden at least once spoils the game experience a bit though: wasteland and eden feel a lot less dire if you know there's a way to reduce the danger down by such a huge amount
a vault.temple pin would be.way too useful , just tp up then hopped down to grab your candles 
Imagine reporting actually useful bugs
Noooooooo
but they're not intended gameplay features lol
That's just ruining the fun
i'd rather they actually make a shield spell of some sort
😍 a sword
there are many that i hope they dont patch (valley oob, table bus glitch, piggyback rocket glitch, (are the elder oobs still accessible? damn,)) but i understand if its too easy to come across by accident and use to your advantage
well, you can't have fun cuz grievers
sometimes we gotta look from the eyes of the developers
sometimes they want the game to go a certain way and not the other 
i feel like i’ve never heard of this table glitch before. would anyone mind explaining? sorry if it’s already been asked, i’m still confused even after reading back a bit 
Hold my chair , who reported that el glich ? 
shield spells would be cool lolol, probably would take too long to set up (animations of the spell) before the krill likes ya cut but tbh imagine the sonic shield aura around you 
/yall thanks imma head to wishlist and ideas asking for a shield
table glitch is where you and a couple (3+) friends sit down on your table and offer hands to eachother while you hold on to one person and you can move the table around like a uber 
@pliant bramble basically you can teleport yourself back to the table u place in a certain location , the bug is commonly use for quick candle running but unfortunately it is also use to warp random players to dangerous areas
Did the dev role change colors or am I just going blind
oh well that one too
different glitch but still a table glitch you can do
dev role looks the same colour to me green
oh, i remember this
i think it was made more reddish like office
maybe im going blind too
(just slightly tho)
I swear it was softer before
@valid pagoda me too! one of the spirits in the office has a spear on their back

i... can't see the difference 
Might be a pen to write 🖊
but sky is a wholesome friendship game, we'll get a plastic spear to bonk our friends
oo like a pool noodle
sky kid with pool noodles just sounds like "play fight Lv3" 
a mini toy hammer from forest mama 
[bonk]
just finished the fire trial and it’s so much better! still challenging but now far less frustrating when completing solo
My pins came.
I'm so curious if it will be as bugged in live as it is for me im beta
did you get the anniversary box? 
top ten things tgc should add in sky:
jet pack
pool noodles and/or wood repair kit from ikea
umm.. whole honking campsite cosmetic
rocket for skykid space travel except its just a cardboard box
smash invitation letter
also you got your pins??
mine hasn't appeared yet at all cryy
(gosh imagine skykids in smash,, impossible but imagine...
what movesets would they have
)
they're meant to be friendly by nature, so i can't see them actually doing anything besides holding out a crab to attack people like peach using her toad counter 
/they can spam ded emote to avoid attacks
i know! thats why im so curious as to what they would do in a "battle" scenario

/deepcall to flip enemies
the best moveset ideas i can think of are just
(candle gaining for charge attack)
(deep call shockwave yes)
(um.. candle burnn)
(oo what if you were banished into the wasteland portal and got snatched by a krill for the ultimate..)
(firework staff!!)
(table!!)
(okay thats all i swear)
/uh excuse me you forgot "spam horn to annoy others"
that would be a taunt or like jigglypuff's lullaby but the opposite
pass out or get stunned by the sound
wait, i just read back all the things about table warp.
and i tried to move stranger with it. you can't do it.
you can't move anyone to your table. it is only you who can warp to your own table.
your friend can be warped with you if they hold your hand.
so i dont understand which table warp is the one causing harm..?
do you mean if someone sit on your table and you move the table?
i tried and it can still be done after update.
Pins came , mine ain’t even been sent off .. still waiting
I think it's because if the stranger hasn't sat in your table you can't move them
@lament moss I believe it is when a shadow sits down at your table.
table warp for explorers, is when you warp to your own table. and no stranger can sit on the process
you can actually warp people besides yourself, but the way i understood it, it only works on them if they've sat in your table and thus activated your collision -- once they've done that, your table can be used on them the same way it can be used on yourself -- but it was apparently possible to do that to players who haven't even sat in your table from some of the other instances i've been reading
have you tried to do it yourself? you need to understand this table tp too to understand why is this so confusing for explorers
i've done it to both myself and a cooperating friend who's sat in my table, but i've never seen it being performed on someone who hasn't sat before
You can’t warp people who have not sat down
The whole issue is people warping people who sat to talk and not go on a 1000 mile hike without notice lol
Yeah, that was the initial issue with collision on the table: people were being tp’d out of Home when standing on constellation platform, or just trolled by tables blocking the portals. You have to sit down for it to work now.
ktjn on people getting yeeted when they haven't sat at your table a few days ago (i've never witnessed this one myself, but i do think that one would be quite an issue):
https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/583370574449999880/769430252081643542
so you mean i leave my table somewhere, some ppl sit on it and i move this tble of mine somewhere far?
depends on whether you're talking to blep or me, meimei; but in the instances i'm describing, the warp is used on people who are standing around, not sitting at a table
Simeone with 150 stars un beta????
yes, but there isn't that much of a difference, the design for 11th wedges has not been implemented yet
It’s sad to see people going out of their way to troll others, so that those players who use it for good stuff are now locked out.
agreed 
though to be perfectly fair, half the reason some of us bought the table were to use it in ways that really weren't its actual intention as a chat table (safe platform on sludge
)
I bought it for the mushrooms 
I’ve only ever done it myself and for myself ...teleporting others without consent ain’t exactly very nice thing to do ... it could easily make someone leave the game ....
I still think it’s impossible to teleport people who have not sat..that is not your friend and a complete stranger ... impossible ... until I see proof I will stick to that
we tried for some hours now to warp ppl to our tble. its impossible.
I didn’t know you could do that in the first place 
i have sat down at a stranger's table a few days ago, but they were still able to teleport me, so
I’ve only done that with friends. The thing where they give you their hand but you don’t take it
yeah, that's a different type of table glitch crab -- that one should still be possible if i'm understanding things correctly
are we even talking about the same table warp
my friend was also able to teleport me without holding hands
Huh wild
if that is do-able someone have bound to report it and the devs probably had re-enact the bug in order to figure out a fix
I didn’t even know you could yeet unsuspecting players with the table. Holy moly. I thought it only worked on yourself and friends if they held your hand
well, i knew, but we were all having fun teleporting one another around
yes cuz all i know is only table master can see the table to tap on it and be warped to where the table was
That’s why a random person in live dropped a table on my friend group 😂
meimei, how do you perform the table teleport? do you just put the table on top of yourself, or are you pressing the "sit" button?
i put the tble to where i wanted to return, do my business and drag tble over me and close menu, before sit icon disappeared i click on sit
So no more table running with friends?
nope, another one bites the dust
oh i do it differentlly, i drag the table over me and double tap the menu and release the table, didint sit
in beta i cant do this anymore. but i can still move my friend who sit on my table.
that might be why you're confused -- the table teleport can be done without pressing the sit button, so long as the table's collision is overlapping with your own character (chibi characters in sneak stance might be too short for that, it works best on tall characters)
that version of the teleport will also work on any player who's sat at your table once -- they don't need to try "sitting" on anything at all for you to warp them
Welp you learn something new every day
When I do the chair TP I don’t need to sit on it first. I think there’s a couple ways to do it
i tried the double tap and i am not teleported to my table. sit is the only way i am teleported
i'll link an instance of me doing it to myself, but i could've warped another player the same way by putting the table over them instead of myself (again, i only knew how to do that on players who've already sat on my table):
https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/618891214527266846/770610695833911306
i've put a vid on how i do it in live at #beta-screenshots-videos
I hope they don’t patch it completely, it is a lot of fun to tp yourself with your own table lol
anyway okay now i understand theres another way ppl misused this awesome bug and i am so sad. uhh.. thanks for responding to my nags.. i was just so sad if this comes to live.. and not being able to do it anymore.
back to old glitches.
i'm seeing conflicting claims about whether it's been properly patched out or not in the latest beta update, but for me, it pretty much doesn't work anymore -- closing the menu causes my table to just get dumped on top of my current spot (i.e. i can't get the table to go back to its old spot, so there's no way i can warp myself or anyone else)
yes tble tp is not functioning anymore.
That was fun while it lasted deep sigh
I see yall were plotting to warp to me when I woke up. I have like 5 people attached to me rn 
morning kai i suppose 
speaking of which, i might need to borrow a hand if you're free 
https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/583370574449999880/769430252081643542
i suppose maybe ktjn is implying that you dont need to sit to get warped? judging by there are so many ways to perform this bug
i can still see it can be used to troll, just get a moth to come sit on your table once in wasteland then fly to krills and yeet them along
Players do that even without tables and it is upsetting
Table change based on my limited testing: As soon as you try to place a table in a new location, it is removed from the old location. This kills the table teleport trick. You can still use the table to get oob.
does this re-enable the table-to-cutscene? Or the table keeps dropping if you close the menu?
the table automatically places were you at when you close menu
I guess you can still warp like a few inches if you sit and then place table XD my character can move within wherever my table gets placed on my screen
The saddest part for me is losing the one player option for the vault's second 4 player door. Back to using the dull two player version.
yes. So many bypasses...
you can still one player it with some camera manupilation. gotta place the table exactly and get your camera close enough to wall to make it invisible
at least this won't be patched... right? right? #beta-screenshots-videos message
Hey is the new spells still have any chance to come??
I don't think that can be used to grief dark so it's probably good
is 11 wedge visual update out yet or?
at least this won't be patched... right? right? #beta-screenshots-videos message
aw man i gotta try this at live fire prophet blocking the eden door
@bright portal you don't have anything to do with this, do you? 
I think I"m the only person in the group I'm in rn that had this TS emote on beta 
oh yeah haha, i have it too, but never unlocked anything
i only unlocked enough for the tassels
I'm just in a piggyback totem of skykids spamming shrug in the crab cave 🤣 also turns out you can stack two people on your shoulders at once. pakka has piggy with me and spearmonkey but I don't have piggy with spear (yet) so pakka has us both on her shoulders and it's hilarious looking
people are still teleporting to me for the quest 
so there must be players with 151 wedges now right?
they could tell us if the UI for 11 wedges is ready with the last patch 👁️
#screenshots-and-videos message inaccurate if anyone back reads this
Huh , I just asked a friend in beta nothing changed
that's not the 11th wedge pls stop sharing it, it's someone who got 150 wl but then used 1 wedge, that's a default design for a burned wedge, please read down in the link
no 148-9 possible on live rn I forgot x.x
#screenshots-and-videos message
that's why the user doesn't show the 11th wedges UI on top, only shows one time and it's 1 wedge burned
thanks zeryle
i'd imagine the 11th wedge would be more noticeable than a few small lines across the starand most important of all, they'll probably let us know when they implement the wedge. please dont spread misinformation
150 is possible in live due to the past bug on ts
yup
tbh I never looked at the link, it was sent to me earlier so I copied it
was that TS bug on live too? I only remember it being on beta
yeah 150 is possible but ig tgc will follow the official count wich is in 148 iirc
149
149 for ios, 145 for android
149 w/o fire trial? :0 the difference between android and iOS is 3 after karate emote I think
39(base spirits buffs)+1(orbit end)+19(TS)+87(base game)+3(trials) = 149
+1 with fur cape TS if you got it
Fur cape which one?
for a few players gratitude fur cape appeared for a short time when sassy came back. players didnt have sassy but fur cape as TS
ooooh I thought it was the thing where past spirits showed up in eden. forgot that happened too
that happened twice in live
the second time was a ts that came later
except we got lazycool soon after pensive
oh i didn't know it happened twice 
If that’s the 11th wedge then pfft ..but it ain’t so woooop . Thanks god .... I’m expecting something a lot nicer as the dedication deserves something , I have 148 in live and 149 after I have gone Eden and collected my wings again
Is 150 possible in beta though? 
153 is the max in beta if im correct
39+1+87+4+18(3 first seasons with orbit bug) +3 (2 rythmn, 1 enchantment)
Has anyone checked out what 11 wedges looks like on beta, then...? 
iirc it still looks like ten, theres a design it's just not in from what I know of
I'm so relieved since they only changed the table teleport trick and not the hand glitch... that would practically terminate our oob excursions
hand glitch requires consent so people can't grief with that one at least
Wait! table teleportation glitch is fixed?
What's the minimum number of people required to table glitch? I don't have many friends... 
just one person with a table and one person who doesn't have to have a table. the person with a table places it on the ground somewhere where the friend can sit on it. friend sits then offers a hand to person with table. without accepting hand, the person with table can move it and friend will move with table.
Oh! Thank you, hopefully I can try that sometime 
Does that mean you should probably have warp, though, since you're only moving your friend?
you can't move them far and just accept the hand once they're through a wall an thy pull you through too
Ah, okay, that makes sense.
Thanks so much for explaining it to me! 
Anyone got an idea on what the tgc pin will do ?
gives you a founders cape. temporary spell obviously but you only need it for a minute to get through barrier
Table glitch was patched? Kai can we test it out in beta real quick?
Aww looks like they made it so table runs are no longer possible. That youtube channel was fun
Rose I'm sorta AFK XD my phone's in my desk drawer while I get dragged
Ah no problem
Can we not shove the TS around with tables anymore now
I wanted to do that one day
Nope, table teleport is gone iirc, cant tp people who sit at your table now
I don’t want to do it with shruggy boye as I respect the Enchantment gang
The menu manipulation specifically is what got patched
When the shrug ts plopped down this morning I was reminded of why I hated him so much that I didn't get anything from him on purpose 
Menu manip?
Someone might be able to give you a video, Rose, I can't at the moment 
they seem to be fine with oobing as long as it’s harmless to anything else
They reverted something that patched out one
Mainly I used the table teleport to oob into windy areas but i could just as easily do that with a friend
you can still do the table hand hold glitch! you just can't warp across the map with tables now
Ah
It was such a short lived table trick that I hope no one gets mad
Kai I thought that was patched during grat
idk I wasn't here for gratitude. might be a different table trick that got patched
rhythm was my first season in live and enchantment was my first in beta. anything before that I only know through people talking here
I’m still so salty about TS
I’m broke and would rather not CR right now as I’m elsewhere
but it’s Enchantment, what I only saw a week of
but shruggy boye is the record most expensive that’s ever been
aw crap, rip to my candles
1 6 7
Hey so I just relived the traveling spirit but he's still not unlocked???
WHAT- OH GOSH PLEASE NO
so I’m absolutely hopeless
going to be grabbing looooooooooooooong beard and maybe turban if I can take CRs any more for a while
Is the ts bugged?
You can do it~!! also yue idk how to help you since im not actually in beta lol
he could def return
Hi there
I’m not in Beta either (might in future), just a lurker, but only ranting here as the atmosphere is nice and calm and slow
I can sit out on a ts finally, I have all the stuff 
It's even more expensive than the guitar 
This is my punishment for acting on my hatred
Hey so I just relived the traveling spirit but he's still not unlocked???
@thick lion did you click the exclamation point on the TS in home space before you went? you have to activate it there for reliving it to actually work
I did
It's even more expensive than the guitar
Now I'm glad I got the pass
AAH! Oh, it’s just you @oak berry! Don’t scare me like that 
maybe try restarting app
I'll try. I'll even go relive him AGAIN since my save point is In the ark it's not that agrevaiting to get to him a second time
I did the math and I'll be able to get the turban and cape by sunday if i get 14 candles a day, but there's not chance of the beard 
who wants to join me in screaming its too late i have already started
Hey same! Except I’m in live version 
Not even with the new candles in the caves Lyze? Also, me too Spoochii!
dont even need this TS in either beta or live
good thing too cuz I have about 50 candles combined beta and live (yall I don't need it cuz I have it from being here for the season)
Like the one time I don't save up as extensively for a ts this happens the other time it happened was head pat
i will go farm now
Though the ukelele is one of my most treasured items so maybe the cape will also be one
luckkyyyyy i joined just after enchantment (i think its enchantment) ended
awwww poor lyze, be safe friend! Get those candlesss! 
I got lucky to discover sky before rhythm started. Wish I'd been there for belonging though
but I know there's gonna be people who come after me who are jealous of when I came so I try not to be too sad about missing the first 3 seasons
hey all, how to add you as friends in game?
Ok second time I actually unlocked him. Nowni realize I need candles for his spell and heart xD I'm a fool for not focusing on cr in beta
@quiet solstice are you in beta version of the game? if you're new to the game you're probably not on beta and should head over to #questions-and-help to get questions answered and to #looking-for-group-live to make friends. #general-sky-discussion is a great place to chat about the live version of the game too! hanging around here isn't great as a new player because we beta test upcoming content and this channel is often full of spoilers
@random gull thank you,I am newbie and I know how to do now
Even with ktjn putting beta at the front of these channels, new players and discord users still migrate here first 
probably players who get lost in all the channels
I'm still amused that that happens. I don't know how
I made a new discord and joined sky server to see what it looks like when you first join and beta channels are definitely at the bottom and not immediately visible. But I do think being new to discord is part of it. Discord ccan be confusing
@random gull, to join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-signup-info! You can learn all about the beta version and the sign-up process in #beta-faq.
to clarify
no, I am still not over the Ult-Gift mask
Thank you Skybot I had no idea
it’s so cool I just
wow tell us more, Skybot
I do have a theory that new players with vet friends get told beta has all the answers since they're more involved in the whys and hows of the game than strictly live players so they come down here even though it don't work like that 👁️ I've overheard conversation along those lines
theory? you mean facts? 
Theory because im too tired to think of examples
also a lot of players come here from YouTube videos of content that may or may not be legitimate and is advertised as beta content
is that why people with mutual friends keep bugging me on live. my live friends mostly know I'm a beta tester and like I get lots of mutuals asking me all sorta of questions
There are definitely live players who lurk in #questions-and-help that know way more than me, even though I've been playing longer than a lot of them 
Speaking of, my beta anniversary is coming in two weeks 
My continued adventures in PS4 controller on Sky: water trial is not easier nor more difficult with a controller.
If what ktjn said yesterday about beta players being under NDA ever becomes true I will have to block all my live friends
cant get questioned if they cant reach you
"sorry, I signed an NDA"
sounds epic where do I sign
She said that? Was it perhaps a joke?
"sorry, I signed an NDA" "Oh come on I wont tell anyone" doubt
It was more of an example than a joke, I was just saying, in an alternate universe, I wouldn't have a friends constellation anymore 
#beta-discussion message
can relate. get a lot of questions about beta content
Oh, lol, so more of a joke. I mean, we are asked to be discrete - at least on this server. But it would be naive to expect all of social media to not say anything. Many people make money off their views on YT, for example. And people like spoilers. 👀
They also did say that information is meant to ripple out, so they can get live feedback based on expectations(?), though mainly it's grounded to this server
I would think getting feedback through “the grapevine” of whatever is in beta might be a bit counterproductive. But I’m not TGC, so what do I know.

it's one thing to post beta content spoilers on YouTube, but it's another to post... not beta content and claim it as beta content
get a lot of questions about that kind of content 
like people asking if season of prophecy was the last season of sky? 
YES
I have no idea where that even came from
I know 90% that that idea came from the murals alone, about how the glowy child looked like our child of light, if the prophecy is what I think it is lore wise and exists in the opening cutscene of the game, "Bring our lost stars home" would mean our job is done, the spirits would leave. Non lore wise people definitely picked up on that and got scared
And the whole gossip mill around “new TS prices”. People tend to run with things without actually reading what it’s about. But again, if TGC doesn’t mind that type of feedback we shouldn’t stop people expressing their thoughts on it.
What about Beta players being under an NDA?
Voluntary, My bad, It was an example
not a thing thats ever going to happen
ah good
I just realized the meditation quest spots have the gratitude symbol on the rock..
Yeah I'm totally a pro at this game 
We are not under an NDA. That would require a whole different type of approach to beta testing, like signing an agreement...and that would be troublesome what with different legislation in different countries.
I think the idea of prophecy being the last season came from a clickbait title in youtube... but I'm not sure, people where asking about it even before it came to beta
Oh youtube, a blessing and a curse for beta 
I lurk Beta as I enjoy it and I’m thinking of joining one day.
I mean I had the same Idea about "the last season" for like 0.2 second before I realized, wait that's not right.
Yessss voluntary join ussss
It cant be the last season, I'm pretty sure that's what's keeping me playing sky other than friends and late night adventures
Beta lurkers rise up 
It's absolutely not the last season
I- I'm just saying I can understand where people got that idea
The last season will probably be called the ''Season of goodbyes'' or something
Sky is only 1 year old, so it's waay too early to start speculating
I already knew that the game have at least 2 years more of content already planned so that idea never cross my mind, a blog in news about prophecy even called prophecy an origin story and people kept asking about it :(
This feels like the beginning... why does it feel like the last for some?
clickbait titles are fearmongering
But then, there is a "now" aspect of it, we interact with the whole thing, it's more of a lore question to ask if us uncovering the murals is the prophets showing us them in real time, or us uncovering an old prophecy that already passed and that is why we are here now
The Prophecy has been lost at sea, I wonder who'll find it...
My seasonal heart was swallowed and I couldn't get my graduation hairstyle
ah, beta
The last season will probably be called the ''Season of goodbyes'' or something
@eager ferry season of Farewell
the last cutscene from season of farewell is your sky kid being yeeted to the aviary
'Now we are free so you wont be needed anymore, bye'
proceed to yeet the child
season of farewells spirits are the elders
the last ones who needed to be freed was them
our skykids grow into adults and leave home space
The sky adults long for new places to explore
thats a cool idea but why is this making me cry TvT
Rip table bug
Wanted to pop in about the "2 years of support" for Sky from that press interview, since it's being taken a little out of context.
We'll support the game as long as there are players who support it. Two years is more about how far we have content planned in advance. We are not going to just shut the game down one day in 2022.
there is this pinned in like at least 2 channels
Hi everyone.
I haven't got to check out today's update yet. Is the difficulty adjustment really noticeable in Air and Fire?
i tried air, i noticed the wind that blows you off platforms seems less harsher
I haven't gotten that far since doing Eden the other day and also experimenting with controller instead of screen controls.
beta looking for group is more active today
lot of people I haven't seen before
Beta looking for group doesn’t seem as active right now
anyone know if there’s any other server have active beta looking for group?
@ Khe , T of Air last triple geysers have added one more check point and lifted up the 3rd geyser's platform
imo that part became easier
Eugie it's waaaay more active than normal tbh. beta just doesn't have nearly as many people as live. I think like 5k testers vs 50 million downloads of live. I can help out later when I'm off work but that's another 4 hours from now
hi :3
Thnx @random gull ping me when you’re free
Can I ask for more information about the fixing of moving table? I havent got table in beta so I havent figured out what did they fix.
I assume you haven't used either table glitch before then? I can explain the best of my ability for you
@spark lance the fire trial is so much better and is noticeably easier to run solo, still a challenge but way more manageable now
I ve experienced all table glitch, i just want to know which exact table glitch did they fix 🤣
Thank you,Azaura. I've never been able to run fire solo except for the 1st iteration. I'm looking forward to it!
World is cruel
me too Khe!! i hope you enjoy it 🙂
ope been answered while I was typing in a google doc
@kindred fossil tysm, rip solo players from now on 😿😿
tbh most of the time i forgot it existed LOL
In reality do we really exist?
no, next question
In reality do we really exist?
@shy pumice I think in reality, we actually got controlled by skykids.
no, next question
@kindred fossil what's the meaning of life?

sky beta

that's the meaning?
42
The meaning is 42
Or meditate night night 2 as the skykids know it
Solo players will still have to half fly half jog back to the start of ark I’m pretty sure everyone’s used to the endless running by now
Solo players will still have to half fly half jog back to the start of ark I’m pretty sure everyone’s used to the endless running by now
@tiny umbra or return home then enter the map again for short 👀
you know you can fly through the ark to recharge yourself mid-flight, right?
The birds?
Pam Pam it just sent me back to the farm 
no, the butterflies at the center, deep call and they'll recharge you
But it takes too loooonnng
Heyho; not sure if anybody started the topic before since I haven’t been around since yesterday (I’m a shy child, I only watch
), but what do you think about the current difficulty level of the air trial in beta? Doesn’t it seem a bit too easy now? I talked to some friends and I’d like to know your opinions as wellllll
i find the checkpoint at the last section pointless, it ruins the flow
the actual issue was the lack of control over your flight mode, and that's already been fixed
though i'm not sure if it's too easy or that i've gotten better
Yes!! That’s how I feel as well. I also noticed they made the wind noticeably milder, and that might’ve been unnecessary as well. Although I’ve seen a lot of people complain about both of those things (even though it was before you had control over flight modes, so who knows)
i noticed that too... 
Now I kind of feel like the earth trial is a bit harder (than the air trial) if you don’t cheat
I haven’t tried air trial yet in beta, only fire, thou I can say I’m more relieved the difficulty is down to worry about it being tooo easy, sky isn’t a puzzle game so there’s no point in a unbearably hard trial, if it’s really easy for you then yay ! It’s still hard for others
I’m also all in favor of a button to decide levels of difficulty, or 2 paths to take, but hmmm
Each to their own 
I'm gonna try the trials with one handed mode and die a lot later 
huh? earth trial is the easiest, and i never used skips for that trial, my record is 7-8 minutes
One handed mode should be easier in the air trial to be honest, ima try it tooo
That’s what I’m trying to find out; if it’s still hard for others, @tiny umbra ww. It used to be challenging, now I’m not sure if the changes havent been a bit too much
(Also, difficulty levels, yes please)
portrait mode trials anyone?
I literally could not complete earth trial alone; it was that hard 
I somehow always spent at least two or three minutes during the final part of the earth trial haha
One of the only parts I struggled with in earth trial was the start. I got confused and had no idea where i was going 
I spent hours on it before I rage quit, only to have jumped above the walls later before that was fixed in beta and never completed it alone in live 
do you jump like a maniac? because that's how its done
Yes haha but it never ends right
Oh my, now I’m having flashbacks from the first time I tried the earth trial ww
(until it was abruptly ended by the server instability haha)
Probably not gonna redo the trials later after I run Eden
i should try the fire trial in a bit, i didn't have that much issue with completing it solo so i'm curious
I’m curious as well; got some trouble during the third part, so let’s see how much they changed it (I’m even more curious after seeing the changes in the air one) 
I'm curious to see the changes in the air trial as well
I was impatient in the third part of fire cause I needed to do other stuff and that’s why I quit, I’m sure if I just sat for it it’ll be fine
oh, i struggle with lvl2 the most, i find lvl3 fun because it's like you're playing tag with the krill bunnies
trying to hop to a safe candle before they catch me is fun
Hahah, that’s actually kinda true ww. Although they usually won in my case 
Apparently they added a checkpoint to the three islands near the end of the air trial 
yeah :/
I guess so you're not starting completely over if you overshoot?
That's great imo
I suppose. Although it’s right after the first yeeting candles
yes but it's only like, 3, and it's more fun to chain all of them
It's not fun if you spend hours on it 
i did spend hours on it, with tons of practice i git gud gg
I'm over here struggling with all the trials and rage quitting all except the water trial
it is nice that the checkpoints are an option for people who have difficulty with it though 
That’s why I’d really love to see the option to choose the difficulty
there is a group of people who don’t have fun if it’s too easy, and another group of people who don’t have fun if it’s too hard

Choosing the difficulty would be nice 
i was one of those who complained about the uptick in difficulty but i've changed my mind, be careful what you wish for i guess
Reading my feedback must be quite annoying sometimes “it’s too hard”, “ah, now you’ve made it too easy”, “s-sorry to bother you, but it’s a bit too hard again” ww (not really like this, but I feel like it all could be more or less summarized this way haha)
me LOL
me in feedback channel: hi yes TGC I love everything thank you 🤣 I do actually point out things I dislike too but usually it's filled with heart emotes
See, that's a great way to give feedback

But now I’m curious so I’m gonna see if they work in the sky chat system
also you should try practicing to chain all boosters with a friend, it's so much fun 
are those three candles at the fire trial 'safe candles'? i've seen none in lvl3
also lvl2 is effortless now, oops
I thought I saw some in level 3, though I'd have to check again to make sure
maybe i have to act dumb and light every candle in existence in lvl3, since i memorized the pattern
I haven't, I turn around and oh look, another candle in a different path than the one I'm following, I think they lead to the same place anyways so 
What was the table glitch that was patched? Was it the new table warp or where you can move your friends if they sit+then offer a hand? Still waiting for beta to download ha
It was the new table warp
I know in beta they're testing out ways eliminating the grinding. Do you guys think the higher ts prices are trying to help with this? As in the high price would discourage players from trying to save for it?
I haven’t heard of anything specific to eliminate grinding. Could you expand on that?
higher to what extent? have to grind for a whole month to finish one ts? this doesn't really solve the problem imo
brain went ‘having TSs be cheaper but more spread out might work’ but it wouldn’t
I couldn’t bear an orthodox CR today, it broke me honestly just finishing Prairie
@empty inlet just looking at the current ts is almost 2 weeks of full candle runs. That being said its also just a popular cosmetics and emote so I'm not sure if it was an attempt at something or just because its actually more valuable
once I have long beard, that’s it
I’m done with this one though I don’t want to be but it’s best honestly
both the mask and cape were pass-only during the season, so maybe that's why it's so much? 
@hollow compass #beta-announcements message
TS prices are meant to reflect the time and effort (and money?) players spent during the season. I don’t think they are related to trying to lessen grinding.
If any of you have any ideas to reduce the grind pain, put them in feedback
@hollow compass ya I wasnt sure. Just popped into my head
how to reduce the grind pain
don't grind
@potent heron the proposed changes in that post might have been an attempt to lessen the grind, I don’t know. It seemed to be an unfinished idea.
I put in feedback a while ago that converting ac to regular candles would be a savior lol
it's not that it's an unfinished idea, it's that we stopped to gather feedback before making additional changes.
We will have more to show based on feedback in a future build.
Uh oh I've attracted the krilltjn. 
In what way would AC converting to regular candles be a saviour? Wouldn’t that “force” people to Eden run endlessly instead of regular cr?
Ktjn, ah, that’s probably the impression I got but wasn’t good at explaining. 
Thank for the reminder.
@hollow compass well people who prefer to candle run can candle run. But as someone who regularly does eden it would help
...But it doesn't help the people who get 10 stars every time and need to recollect so many winged lights after Eden 
Oh, do you mean not all AC, but sort of like an exchange system?
Now, for what I actually popped in to ask:
Has anyone been able to replicate the menu-manipulation table shove to move a player who has not sat at your table?
We've received conflicting reports that the fix was not effective and am trying to gather more info.
for the current existing ts system tho, by adjusting the price, it's trying to find a sweet point that balance between two opinions:
new players that came late but still wanting cosmetics from past season
old players that paid effort and real money on getting those cosmetics and unwilling to see their value been decreased
putting a higher price would probably prevent new players from even thinking about getting cosmetics from ts, which is probably not the reason for introducing the system in the first place
@hollow cloak just go once a week
...I would never go to Eden more than once in a week except for kakashi hair 
@hollow compass ya I was thinking maybe at the ark or something maybe 10 for 10
I would really not want to do Eden on a regular basis anymore. It’s not that fun. 
Eden's fine for me because I no longer need to do it regularly for more wing buffs, but recollecting my lights afterwards takes a lot of the fun out of it 
Would love to help gather that info Krilltjn, just don’t have the table yet 
I think I have the table in beta, but I’m not good with glitches. Sorry, Ktjn.
I didnt even know it was possible to force players to move who haven't touched your table
I have the table but no friends online... 
Free tables for all???!!!! 
Soap, I think the issue is not friends, but shadows/strangers being moved around.
Oh. Ktjn said 'players who haven't sat at your table' so I assumed it would work to test with a friend, but that makes sense too 
I would never have the guts to teleport a stranger without asking them, even if it was to test for beta, so I guess I'm out 
We could test it through a mutual friend
Same. But I suppose you could do it in a safer place than Wasteland.
I have so few friends in beta, I’d be happy to be that mutual friend
Maybe if I get lucky and meet one of my Chinese friends who always hangs out with 4 other players, I'll ask if I can glitch them around 
friendship levels, or lack thereof, shouldn't be a factor in testing with the table.
Oh, I thought the main issue was griefing strangers?
well, yes...I just thought that being able to teleport people who hadn't sat down at your table was patched out, but it's been discovered there was some other way of doing it and that was what we were suppose to check. It's always best to ask before you tp a friend also, of course. 🙂
I still don't understand how to do it, I'm such an innocent sometimes
None of my friends i played with were able to do the latest table teleport glitch today, including me. (We really tried hard tho 😅)
It's a very complex situation. There are many ways that the table is used for unintended purposes.
We could patch a ton of it out but the out-of-bounds community would skin us alive.
Finished earth trial using PS4 controller: no particular difference here either.
So what we try to do is make minimal changes that preserve those unintended fun uses, while ensuring people aren't doing abusive things with it.
I can check right now with someone. But as of the update, menu manipulation doesn't work on my table, it just places automatically where I am when I close the menu. Unless you're talking about the one where you offer a hand to move them?
But offering a hand sounds like consent in this context, no? I am online, btw. Just finished air trial.
ktjn is specifically asking for stranger yeeting
Sorry for interrupting (and if this is really dumb) but a friend of mine on Beta said the ultimate gifts are coming back soon for IAP?
I don’t know whether they’re telling the truth or not tho? Thanks for you help guys!
nah, your friend lyin'
It's not something we've heard about so far, no.
Never heard of that in beta
@flat shadow It's a rumor with no basis in fact. We haven't made any finalized design decisions regarding Ultimate Gift items.
Ahhh thanks guys!
I don’t know if they were joking or something? Very weird

I just wanted to check here before telling others, I don’t want to spread untrue rumours

Actually if your friend was talking about the halloween vampire cape that may be true
I heard @edgy nexus is giving out king sized candy bars...
That being said, the direct quote from the FAQ implies that those items will be tied to something other than in-game currency:
Seasonal Pendants and Ultimate Gifts will not appear on the Traveling Spirits in exchange for in-game currency. We plan to bring these items back in another capacity but we have not settled on what that will look like or the costs associated with it.
ok but they specifically said the ultimate rewards, the halloween event already went live
Yeah, they definitely said ultimates...
Oh
I know there was a photoshopped picture floating around on twitter of ultimate gifts in the IAP shop, Jenova replied confirming it was a good fake.

@vapid briar awesome!!![]()
Well, thanks for the help anyway guys heheh I really appreciate it!

so you can warp yourself through a portal in home space using the table 🤣
But what is it good for? 
nothing really I am just laughing so hard that I went through the portal but Mochi and amber didn’t. so I guess just shenanigans
It's hilarious, though!
anyways playing around a LOT with my table has confirmed: I cannot teleport myself with it solo. It requires a consenting friend who has both sat down at my table and done a specific chain of things to make it possible to teleport. I cannot teleport others with my table either withtout that specific chain of actions. if they sit and I move my table, they get left standing where the table was.
What they said. 👆 I had no idea what was going on, but I wasn't standing still. 
currently yeeting down the valley slide with this newfound table fun 🤣 beta testers when they get bored: lemme just use my table to slide down the ice
okay so it sounds like what might not be fixed is the bonfire and, by association, the swing. I'll flag this up to the team and see what the next steps are.
I unfortunately don’t have bonfire or swing to test that out ^^; I was on a bonfire last night right after the update with an older beta tester
I'll try bonfire and swing, although I'm still not entirely sure how it works lol
Kai, try relogging and check your closet 
ok
the new teleporting trick doesn't work on bonfire in new build, friend just tried it
is everyone up to modschief?
i-
hello skybot 
should've said you don't have a million dollars to test that out
I'm not a miracle worker, but I can work a little dev magic here and there for testing purposes.
How do folks feel about the Fire trial changes?
i havent tested fire trial yet, but im most likely gonna solo it soon
ok I played around with it a LOT and can’t get the bonfire or swing to move people without them both sitting down AND using an emote (hand, hug, etc)
