For how long did you take break from sky?

#

just curious

warm sparrow
#

from season of performance start til revival start
I started in flight

#

you can probably tell i took a huge break by the fact i have so few traveling spirit wings LOL

I cant rn, i just saw a moth try to fly in eden and lose like 20 wl😭

#

do you think a strategy for statues could be to do some of the later statues first, then come back for the early ones? for like ~90 wl

#

or would that not work since i'd have to run thru the hard part there and back (so twice)

hardy bough
#

Not sure if that’s a good strategy, given you lose more WL the more you have. And a few statues ahead are in the deadzone.

hello, i just started the game a week ago and went to eden twice. Now as far as i understand, the strat for a new player would be to do eden as much as they can and unlock spirits with ascended candles so when they are reborn they'd start with 1 more permanent wing power, right? How far off am i

zenith thistle
#

yeah, it's optimal in terms of getting your wl count higher

#

just keep in mind the weekly reset, you can't save statues more than once per week. red shards are a decent source of ac too

#

well, as long as you're having fun. but i wouldn't recommend doing it in small batches

Actually, you guys are wrong. The umbrella doesn't protect you from red shards in Eden.

glacial storm
#

a light source is more important in eden too since you essentially have to make your sky kid survive long enough to grab all the statues.

#

I just figured out that fast recharge spells and full revive spells are amazing doing eden runs solo with no props.

warm sparrow
#

Can they relight your candle after its gone out? Ive never tried that lol

stark lodge
#

Big tip: Always have your wing menu open on the instant recharge spells. It can relight you and others nearby.

warm sparrow
#

6 yes reactions dang thats insane, i never thought to try that because i assumed itd never work LOL

instant recharge, and slow regen, how well do those work later on in eden, in areas youre being constantly rained on, or say for example the final torch spot where youre still being hit sometimes behind the cover

#

I cant believe ive done enough eden trips for the forest face accessory and 53 wing buffs and... i never knew that LOL

#

Guess i know what im trying next eden reset, i normally only use those spells while flying to places i shouldnt

coral glacier
#

It can be difficult to reach the spells in the area past the final torch because your menu will close every time you lose a wing.

warm sparrow
#

Ahhh interesting

#

The auto regen spell, does that give much in the last section? I imagine itd not keep you from crawling but i guess ill find out myself lol

# warm sparrow The auto regen spell, does that give much in the last section? I imagine itd not...

Extremely late, but using a full recharge in the section past the last torch will only save you from one hit on average. It’s easy to waste time navigating to the spell menu while trying to crawl forward and if you find yourself getting closed out constantly and unable to crawl forward while menuing it would be more beneficial to not attempt to use it at all. Its best use case if you are a ~170 wing+ player and are boosting other players in the final crawl section.

What is the point of assisting people in Eden if half of them just use the skip for the second part?

wind gull
#

what's wrong with helping the hard and long way? not everyone likes using shortcuts

#

if you're saying you should use shortcut with the moth, how about when the moth is gonna do it on their own but they don't know shortcuts? they still need to climb up the long way and will most likely flail around terribly since they don't know how

What bugs me is sometimes I help in the first part, expecting that they’ll need help in the next part, then they hug the wall and are at the top in like a minute.

What does everyone think about the patch on Eden? I havn’t been back yet to confirm

#

Not sure how I feel about it being easier

shadow spire
#

going to try it tonight or tomorrow, but just from reading the patch notes:
on one hand, i did like the challenge of eden, it felt like one of the few things that still required some effort to do successfully which made it more worth it
on the other hand, as someone that runs eden every week, being able to do it quickly is really nice

#

Yah, I'm trying to decide what i would recommend. I don't necessarily dislike the difficulty. Spewing a bunch of winglights is fine and having to work to reach the end makes it feel like an achievement. But it is quite frustrating to pFIRE

formal mesa
#

As someone who's only known the crawling mechanic as a Shattering moth, I think it's a welcome change, but it does definitely need some work. Maybe some improvements to how quickly it takes you to stand up after getting knocked down (could be quicker or slower, depending on your wing count) might help?

#

I dont get the new updates, can someone explain 😭

hybrid quiver

#

So previously in Eden whenever you get hit by rocks, you just get knocked onto your hands and knees and you'll have to crawl to statues. It didn't matter how many lights you had you'd need to slowly crawl to your next destination

#

Now you only get slowed at 20 lights (you're in a limping animation), and only become knocked over and have to crawl at 10 lights

#

This just makes Eden less tedious and might allow players to sacrifice more light before they run out

hybrid quiver
# ancient patrol Like these 2

The quicker avatar movement refers to being able to move more freely when hurt above 20 lights, moving slightly slower under 20, and crawling pretty slowly at 10 and less

#

Hmm I see

#

I felt like chibi didn't get hit as much but I'm pretty sure that's placebo

warm sparrow
#

went into eden today and i see what they meant by improved cover in some spots SkyLOL
unfortunately i think i preferred crawling in that last segment of eden, the rocks knocking me down every couple seconds and stopping my movement completely seems way more rougher than crawling and not being slowed down
its a bit nicer earlier on though, for sure

#

i dont get hit much earlier on unless i really mess up, so uhh, makes the ending harder for me i guess SkyFaint

#

feels like how i remembered eden a long time ago, where you'd get to the final segment with no cover or light and you're just struggling to stand up until it finally gets ya, heh

coral glacier
#

But it doesn't sit easy with me. Especially because it does not make return visits any better and the final section is still very stilted. It feels like there could have been a few better ways to handle it, but it couldn't be realized. I just wish that development would be honest and say that they're making it harder balancing it for higher wingcounts.

warm sparrow
#

the update does make everything up to that point easier in the sense that mistakes arent as punished, and cover in a few spots is far better

but yeah, the final segment now is... odd.
you go faster while crawling compared to this, but only hit crawling at 10 so realistically if you're going to be trying to get all the statues, thats only going to be feasable with a TON of winged light

coral glacier
#

beta testers were saying a week before content shipment it's not balanced for 160-170 WL players anymore, you're unlikely to reach the end with that amount unless you're entering with multiple others and don't get hit once before the final torch

warm sparrow
#

oh dear, lol. i was able to very cleanly do eden runs with 80/90 and usually only miss 3-6 statues

#

i went in with 101 and struggled in that last section really hard, i died before the sand dune

#

14.25, instead of 15.75 so i missed uhh... 7? despite going in there with more than usual

#

as soon as the first smack hit me and knocked me down and i dropped 5 wings, and then the second hit me for another 4 wings, i knew it was not gonna go my way LOL

coral glacier
#

i'm still a firm believer that there's a damage scaler somewhere in the equation, that you lose more wings the more you enter with in order to make you more evenly paced with others and it's designed like that for if you're playing in a group there aren't as many runaway players at the end. but i don't know how the new patch regards that. the beta footage i saw was very unforgiving. you bleed out extremely fast as soon as you pass the last torch. potatohusk

warm sparrow
#

next time i'll probably go in with 80 or 90 again, so i'll see if it makes much of a difference

#

while it might drop more or less winged light, the knockdown effect i think is the most brutal part lol

#

and that was just chain stunning almost, my friend i went in with had a good 10 seconds they couldn't even move forward at all

coral glacier
#

the knockdown stunning was heavily feedbacked on the basis that your player can't move forward at all and is still in a vulnerable state, which was not a feature during crawling. you could always move forward when crawling was a mechanic. (unless you got crit hit)
so, unless it's intended, it's a game design oversight that is causing you to die quicker. if it is intended, it's part of the mentioned balancing that is rewarding players with more wings.

warm sparrow
#

yeah, while you got crit the game would kinda slomo a second, but you wouldn't stop moving, just slow down a moment. and you had a cooldown before you could get crit again, for the most part. but now all those crits come with getting knocked down, and you might get blown by the wind SkyLOL

#

its kinda funny to me, i came back and quickly got used to the crawling, and found it better than when i originally played hueh
but that seems to have been very frustrating to quite a few, and i guess now we're back to how eden used to be SkyLOL

coral glacier
#

a months long grind for players to get the wings they need to feel accomplished in reaching the last statue ^ pSus
we have to keep them coming back for something piyokofaint

warm sparrow
#

I will say, that with the wind changes, flying up the first cliff past the door in eden is now significantly easier

#

i tried to do my usual method but since there's less resistance, you dont get to use that for vertical height, so you gotta be far more careful not to just burn your wings at that old angle lol
but now you can just kinda fly up there with no issue

#

i was able to do it with 5 wings before and i did that today, let me see if i can do it in any less hueh

odd junco
#

I decided to do another Eden run for this week just to get a feel for the new (or old version if you're a vet, I am however new) version before Sundays reset.

The last bit was incredibly frustrating. I grabbed any statues I was missing but I think I missed one statue and it's the one at the very very end of Eden. I had 120wl towards the end section and could not reach that statue, I wish you started crawling at a slightly higher WL number to give you a bit more of a fighting chance for those last 3 statues.

Probably a skill issue on my part but I digress.

vernal tangle
odd junco
#

And this is solo

vernal tangle
#

I'm just saying you shouldn't feel bad because of that. You're doing far better than most players.

celest badger
#

Yeah

odd junco
#

Oh no worries on that lol, I don't feel bad about it. It was just shocking because I lost more WL in that one tiny section with the update than I lost during past Eden runs.

sleek tangle
#

Is it possible to "finish" the eden?

warm sparrow
# vernal tangle You are not supposed to get all the statues in Eden. It's possible but you need...

I think it has more to do with the fact that players who could do that before, now are going to have far more trouble getting further in to the last section, and its quite a lot more frustrating by what i experienced last night.
I was usually able to only miss 3-6 statues on 80/90 winged light, but i went in last night with 100, and missed more statues than normal. a friend of mine went into eden with me with a bit over 120 light, and ended up getting stuck and being unable to move forward in the end before the sand dune for like 10 seconds, due to the wind SkyLOL
They ended up with a similar amount to me, in terms of skill and experience it does not particularly matter in the last section, where you are just trying to keep moving forward in the last section.

#

next week im going to see how it is on somewhere around the 80-90 range, i have a theory that theres a breakpoint in there for damage but i have to see it with this current version of eden

#

that last section always has felt a bit random, you cant really dodge the rocks and just have to take the damage. but now the damage slows you down again far more, like eden used to be

odd junco
#

It was mostly a test run to get a feel for the update before Sundays reset and to play around with flying past rocks to get to PNR. I think I've ran Eden a total of 7 times prior to this update? I started sky around Chrismas.

warm sparrow
#

I was running every week for months, doing it at most 100 wings

#

and i was pretty consistently able to only miss the last few, even without the elder accessory heh

#

since there are like 67 statues total, really its just about getting all the safe ones without losing any wings, and then grabbing the 10 or so you find in the last section with a bit of good luck, before you hit the sand dunes, which is only the last 5.
now that entire last section is uh bitmyalt
somethin else

#

its pure luck to avoid getting hit like i did there, i dont think that'll be happening again lol

Yea I normally can go in an run around the first area lighting up the statues for myself and others, but they made it so you CANNOT light the statues until after you handed out a wl ! It’s so lame! I want to be able to have charge points BEFORE I start clicking hands, it’s how I used to be able to collect all the first area statues without even going gray once. But NOW, I died 4-6 times just in the first section alone! I went in with 220 wings and I COULDNT MAKE IT TO THE LAST ONE! Normally with crawling I would get to the last one and still have like 40 wings left, but this time nope. It’s wasn’t about skill or anything it was this new “prioritizing the wl icons” that messed me up, with the extra strong damn rocks. Once I got up over the hill at the end too the rocks hitting me was so many and so blinding I couldn’t even see myself, totally would rather crawl. AND THEN WHEN I GET TO HEAVEN, the ascend candles almost didn’t register and I was freaking out that I wasn’t going to get them, but after about 5 minutes of freaking out they finally did. Here a little video of what that was like

no, a limitation and shortsightedness of the game they have made and having to ship everything in beta into the live patch(?)

#

this shouldn’t have shipped as is and needed more time and eyes on it, it shouldn’t unless someone higher in the chain of development wanted it to launch as is with 0.24.5, or there is a glaring weakness in the system of being able to remove/choose what gets sent to Live in the event features are not ready for the public.

It's either they ship the update now, or they go through the pains of delaying the next quest and possibly the season in general

coral glacier
#

No, I understand that and acknowledge that. I am saying that Eden updates should not have been a part of this update cycle at all. The part being labeled as a #known-issues was already heavily scrutinized and feedbacked for the exact reasons it’s become an issue.
To bring up that the rest of the content must launch on time is missing the forest for the trees, that there is seemingly a structural and feedback issue going on when it comes to content launch. The structure issues is that there isn’t a way to smoothly decide what features of the code gets pushed into Live(?), seemingly all major changes do. The feedback issue is that there is some breakdown regarding development time between iterations being too quick possibly leading to the inability to naturally implement the feedback of players who are testing.
Ideally, this content should not have hit live because what it is believed to do was not fully realized yet. But it did because there is a breakdown in a game design and testing system somewhere(?)

assuming they're able to patch it in some reasonable timeframe before the season is like over i dont imagine a bit of t ime loss between some quests would be all that big of a deal exactly, but its not particularly great lol

coral glacier
#

No, they should always prioritize keeping the collaboration season stable, because it is an agreement/ due they owe and has the most money and stakes riding on it. It’s why some form of content had to ship, there was a deadline.

formal mesa
#

It's kinda of a lose-lose situation either way, people are most certainly complaining about the hundreds of bugs, but it's likely they'll also complain if the quest gets delayed/doesn't work right if the update hadn't come out, and there are probably a million and ten other reasons too

I agree it really sucks, but we're not the devs, so there's not really anything we can doSkyFaint

i can be disappointed as the reality i feared for about the past month unfolds in front of my eyes piyokokill

im mostly lookin at it from an overall kinda harm done perspective, assuming they're able to fix it in a reasonable timeframe i dont see it hurtin much long term but its not ideal and doesnt look good at all if the quest ends up delayed by it lol

It looks bad either way is what I'm saying, but yea

Eden 2.0 now with more funny red rocks

Eden 2.0 devs thought:

we will allow them to walk and not crawl, and give them two extra boulders to try and hide behind, but we must then LEVEL THEM WITH A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF RED ROCKS SO THEY HAVE TO FIGHT FOR EVERY SINGLE STEP

Or they're simply telling us to git gud.

Elder masks too?

i got oneshot by a rock that broke my mask even before reaching pnr

i can't log on and i'm curious, how's the eden server splitting going after the update? better or worse? SkyThink

shadow spire
#

the original server splitting was originally caused by the a/b door testing

#

that's been fixed, although there's been general server split issues recently so it's been eh

#

i just went in and it was fine though

#

if anyone does get a perfect run though, how many wl did you go in with?

I'm going to be recording my next live run in its entirety if possible.

So they 100% changed it then

'Cause in the past, I never had any problem whatsoever to go through regardless of height

#

Not even joking, but this is really annoying
I understand the changes to make the rocks harder, but going through the krills every week cuts through my sanity more than pnc

shadow spire
#

alternatively, to avoid the cracks overall, you can just fly up once you exit the door into the second part

tired bone
#

They didn’t change it although keep in mind there is two cracks in the wall that have been used before so

#

One was for chibi the other you just be normal or talk height and jump through

Yea, I tried both of them

#

I've only went through the biggest(like, in general before the update)

Okay guys, your Eden enthusiast just died rescuing lots of Sky children before death and I made it just barely past the sand dune. I got pushed back a LOT. Was not a big fan despite my Sky kid speeding rapidly through the field randomly and yeah. It was not good.

#

I will post videos soon when I'm done through rebirth.

#

Okay well, ONE video because the recording didn't capture my Sky kid getting flung back.

#

My Sky kid got knocked back so much they kinda forgot to do the whole "oh jeez, I'm ded" animation.

i got a video of myself being knocked back once i realized it was a lost cause anyway

I don't know how I'm expected to do this next reset now with 200+ winged light once I get them back.

i'm probably not even going to bother trying to get to the end

Just did the new eden and got pinned under the new last rock- lost over 30 winglight for it and couldn't even light the last fire. This is worse. The more damage I can take, but whats the point of standing if im just going to lay down and not run from flying rocks

glad to see others came here to talk about the knockback 😭😭 I did an eden run with my friends thinking it would be so much easier!! I had 155 winged light and I didn't even make it to the hill bc I kept getting knocked back :v it was nice not crawling everytime you died but the knock back was INSANE

Has anyone else noticed there’s also a more consistent flow of rocks

#

There’s somehow even more rocks/crystals falling

#

just went myself, i'm glad they calmed down the wind at the very entrance of the realm because there was no good reason to making those steps so difficult to hop on
what i was less stocked about, (and as i feared reading the news) is the return of everyone's favourite feature. Relentless knockback.pOhReally

To be fair, I managed to reach the very last leg of the statue grind in record time thanks to the improvements to movement and with 150+SkyWingbuff but then proceeded to get stunlocked for literally 20 seconds right after passing the new arch. Baffling. 😔

The rocks do seem to fall more consistently at that section, which did play a big role in knocking me down consistently. Ah well...

obsidian sequoia
#

just went myself and i went in with 155 winglights and normally witz that amount i can get to the last statue or atleast near it. not today... i also got knocked down constantly for about 15 -25 seconds after going through the last stone archway.. love the fact that the stones give more protection but the storm in the last section is just..frustrating.

im a player that actually enjoys eden but this is no fun anymore :/

willow cradle
#

Exactly, I have 180 singled light usually- and make it to the centre of the lake with 15-20 to spare. This time I was barely able to make it to the top of the hill before the lake. I loved going to Eden but these “improvements” seem to have made everything worse. Except the wind. Don’t miss that

But as someone who has only known the crawling, I think this is a welcome change that still needs some work. They've acknowledged the stunlocking thing as a known issue, thankfully, so hopefully they'll continue to improve these changes over timepWow

Hi, gamers. A friend also dragged me through Eden yesterday (first-timer, even though I did that, I’m still very much a moth, lol), she’s played for years and did admirably, despite the changes. I’m curious as to how it was before the changes, though. Are those rocks always so relentless? awkwardmonkey

velvet yoke
#

To give you an idea, normally I take maybe 180 in and that’s enough to get me to the last statue with 40 wings or so to spare. Tried it yesterday and I didn’t even get the last two statues because I was getting hit so much I couldn’t even see which direction I was supposed to be going in, let alone where they were. I couldn’t move.
This change feels partially like a needed one that’s all of out proportion currently; it was too easy before and this is an over correction. But it also very much feels like they’re trying to avoid the probably necessary fact that they probably do need to add another section of statues to Eden or a part 2 with something else instead; no matter how much they play around with the rest, there’s going to come a time where adding more makes sense and I think it’s pretty close to it now already. It’s 5 years old and there’s over 220 wings available and that number will only continue to grow

(I did pretty alright, but yeah, I was curious as to if that experience was intended! Annnnd, it looks like nah!)

coral glacier
#

I recorded yesterday’s run.
I didn’t get stunlocked past the last torch (shortest non chibi height) but was instead trapped behind a wall of wind around the last statue for 30+ seconds and bleeding out. You could not strafe or move around this wall. Attempting to push through it moved you backwards. Because the rocks are more dense, there are more bright clusters of particle effects and it was difficult to see the statue objectives on the dark background. With 214 wings entry I reached the last statue with 6 and died less than 5 seconds later. It was awful. It was not a positive form of anxiety or dread because there was still no control over the character’s forward movement despite not being stunlocked. It’s something that only breeds frustration and negative anxiety after reaching this point after a week or more of waiting. There is a feeling that you won’t reach all of the statues that you were used to saving no matter how well you perform or how many wings you enter with. If this is intended, the design is astonishing and needed to be reviewed and revised more. I’ll try uploading what happened later because I have to clip it from a hour+ video on my PC.

^ Being stunlocked is when the player cannot move forward and is still vulnerable to damage for an extended period of time.

you should still be able to compelte eden really! It jsur becomes a hinderance when youre tryign to get the last statues lol

#

so it may make it harder to get the statues = less AC possibly

well.. i've never had the chance to touch the last 3 statues tho

so aside from getting more dmg and most likely crawling harder than before, eden is fine right?

So basically the rocks hitbox was buffed after the update? Man ig chibi will come in handy

shadow spire
#

I do think the changes made to wind in eden helped mitigate the size difference

#

i ran part of eden at my normal size (which is above average) and part as chibi (with a spell) and it was about the same, if not chibi seemed to get hit just a little less

#

(not that it mattered at the end with the stunlock anyway)

atomic stone
coral glacier
# atomic stone wait really? player size matter with the wind knockback?

Players who are tall/tallest seem to complain more often of being constantly stuck in stunlock (being vulnerable while an inescapable animation plays repeatedly). However this may be construed with the same players jumping or even just walking forward in the wind and then getting stunlocked.

wind raft
#

Ah i see now ty for pointing out as i haven't been able to go eden myself SkyDontGo

atomic stone
#

i went to eden yesterday and i jumped around quite a lot actually but it seems fine for me, i guess i got lucky

coral glacier
#

It may be that taking damage while being blown by the wind is what worsens or even causes stunlock. It needs to be tested especially by development.

atomic stone
#

ahh i see i see, thank you!

coral glacier
#

I’m not 100% sure or factual, because it’s all information gathered by reading bug reports and seeing footage of the changes.
It’s an evolving issue and needs more player feedback and evidence.

hmm okay but thanks for the information 👍

can i ask when does eden reset? i am still confused with the eden reset timing

velvet yoke
fiery citrus
#

so.. just to clarify, can we at our least got 10 acs?

#

or worse?, by all means

velvet yoke
# quasi plaza That's a bit disappointing xx

I understand. This game isn’t like other games where there is a pass/fail metric though (these tend to increase frustration and negative feelings and mean people generally don’t try, or start to avoid them), the game is designed so it doesn’t matter if you’re perfect, but rather that you keep trying and increasing your skills
Tl;dr: it’s about the journey

Your 10 ACs can still be used to unlock 5 wing buffs or more, or can be used for the returning group spirit visit arriving soon. The reward is still very useful

# atomic stone returning group spirit, what is that?? is it like the traveling spirit? (sorry i...

Yes. Except four are coming at once and staying for a week or two. It’s particularly useful if you haven’t been playing very long, you should be able to at least unlock all their wing buffs and then just get what you want from the spirits you’re most interested in. But it’s wise to save up cause usually it can drain your entire candle stash
From memory last time it cost about 1200+ candles to get everything and 40+ or so hearts

# cursive coral now that i have every elder hair, should i start going for the elder masks? <:Sk...

If you have enough ascended candles saved away for the traveling spirits, friends and spells that you want, then you could.

At this point in development for Eden, it may be highly beneficial to get a mask. But since they all function the same(?), you may want to get the cheapest (Prairie, 75) if you are only interested in function over appearance.
Otherwise it’s entirely up to you what you do with your candles.

I hate to say I hate the new Eden update because it seems like whenever you get hit by the rocks all you're doing is falling and not getting back up when you get past the point where there's no more statues it was easier before the update I didn't get as far as I used to and that's frustrating cuz I was just falling most the time and I wasn't even like going forward I spent most of my time getting back up then distributing my winged light 😭

Like, I couldn't walk. It's not because I was on the ground, I LITERALLY couldn't walk because of the amount of rocks hitting me by the second

Each rock would halt me a bit, so much that I spent like a whole minute trying to walk 3 steps
I'm baffled

The sheer amount of rocks made it really hard for me to see anything up ahead too even outside the last shelter there’s just so much they drown out everything else if you’re not right next to it

I was able to get every statue tho at least
It was just far more infuriating

And a friend I went with Blade whose video you can see up there^ who suffered much more

I had 134 WL, and was in a group and even used a spell at one point, by the time I had gotten halfway I was down to the 40s because it’s impossible not to constantly get pelted by rocks going from statue to statue

torn monolith
#

I just wait for the waves

#

There's moments where the rocks don't fall as much, so I go from statue to statue in that moment (which makes me not lose any wl up until then)
But after the arch, it's nonstop

weary yoke
#

hi, what are the changes in eden? can someone explain it to me in simple terms

warm sparrow
#

the wind is less strong and getting bonked in the head by rocks doesn't set you to crawling, and some spots have better cover now

but currently since you don't crawl, getting bonked by rocks knocks you down, which in the final part of eden can chain hits in a way that prevents you from moving

warm sparrow
weary yoke
#

so after getting bonked, u can't get up? like it will take time and in the final part u don't get the extra time cuz the rocks just keep falling down

warm sparrow
#

you can get up, but its kindof an animation where you have to stand up before you can walk, and you can get bonked again

fringe oar
#

So is this the club of eden where we worship all powerful darkness.where do I sign

#

no need for it to be useful, it's much more fun to do cool stuff and it's v impressive

#

i wanna do it someday too!!

warm sparrow
#

flying up that cliff is a good time saver atleast, heh

#

you can get most of the statues before the last segment perfectly fine ( even somewhat easier ) which i think is like 70 or 80% of them?

#

past statue 49 is the part where its constant and kinda stunlocks you, yeah. so 49/63 statues are relatively normal, with a changed wind and getting bonked by rocks earlier now wont set you into a crawl

#

so its easier to recover if you mistime a rock rain hueh

#

yeah, there are 63 statues, and you can get 49 and some above without ever taking damage

#

its that last segment which is constant damage that you need more

#

before the patch, i'd go in with 90 or below, and be able to get up to statue 59 or 60 usually

weary yoke
#

ok im back, how is it better if you're doing eden with someone else now? do u hold hands with them to make it work?

Not my usual 15 but I'm glad the rocks didnt kill my run

warm sparrow
#

I think they made it easier to light people up who were hit by rocks and had their flame knocked out. before the final section there are a few pretty mean spots which you can pretty easiliy mistime and get your flame extinguised, which means you wont be able to light the flames in front of you to heal
if another player makes it to you without taking too much damage, they can heal you

#

If you're totally solo, and stuck in cover somewhere with your candle blown out, your only choice is to crawl forward and hope you can crab some more statues, or crawl back potentially through rocks and whatnot and take more damage to heal.
but, since the crawling wont take you til you get down to 10 wings... its probably easier to solo now too, actually

weary yoke
#

ooh okok thank u

warm sparrow
#

I just made it to PNR and im gonna go in with just under 90 wings and solo, so i'll see how bad it is again LOL

queen needle
#

It’s worth it, I got 13 candles from it
Just be ready to go in a group and get frustrated

warm sparrow
#

tried to jump through the rocks under 20 wings, and forgot thats when it starts to not let you jump anymore, and earlier on i made a couple mistakes which cost me some wings hueh
but most i was getting there was maybe 1 more lol

#

unfortunately i've not managed to bring the mask to the end before it breaks this patch yet

#

13.75

stark lodge
#

Debating heavily going in now that I have all my wings (minus trials and shard memories) just to see how far I can make it. 215 winged light and a dream, last time I made it past the dune on like 108 (-2 from getting the statues I missed) so 106.

#

And that was mainly my wing buffs. I just entered to help others.

#

I don't know, my friend is telling me it's not worth it. But I really want to see how far I can get.

warm sparrow
#

i dunno, you could probably get somewhere between 14/15 which is still a pretty good eden run all things considered SkyLOL

stark lodge
#

Yeah, I know. And I could just enter again to see if I can even try to make it to those last statues. Granted, it's possible.

rough wharf
#

I missed last statue (

stark lodge
#

Big oof.

rough wharf
#

When i was at last 2 I’ve tried everything

#

Walking makes you 2 steps back after 1 forward

#

Jumping knocks 5 wings at once

#

When i finally was at last 10 wings i started crawling and it helped a lot but

#

The moment i get close to last kid i was left with 4 wings

#

And next rock knocked it all at once

#

It may sound funny but i liked more when i was crawling all the way down on previous builds SkyLOL

coarse pilot
#

Tried eden after the new patch, and I haven't done that bad since my moth days.... I started loosing wl in the first part, jumping felt off and it looks like I'll have to completely relearn how to do it efficiently
I preferred crawling, the hit-lay down takes so much time and it made me more likely to be hit immediately after
Didn't get over the hill with this patch, while normally I'd light up all statues with 30wl to spare
It's not the end of the world, but I liked the old mechanics better

#

What I actually liked tho, I feel like the statues are more likely to be lit, even the grouped ones, even without spamming the flame button

coral glacier
#

Hello, PSA to not jump once you are past the last torch or you will be knocked over by the wind and increase your chances of being stunlocked.

#

The common trend I’m seeing across people being stunlocked in the ending section is that they all jump, and their player characters do the animation for getting blown back by wind before they get hit. Players that jump instead of walking get pushed back by wind more often as well.

hardy bough
#

I like the new Eden changes that kill you WAY faster, only issue I have is the stunlock

coral glacier
#

If you walk and don’t press the jump button, you may have more success getting around the wind wall next to the last few statues.

coral glacier
hardy bough
#

Okay so it’s the one to punish jumping

#

The shard stunlock though… my god

#

It’s pre shattering again except it seems like invulnerability time seems shorter

coral glacier
#

Basically, I believe they increased the wind pressure in Eden PNR too much and the stunlocking, difficulty to reach the last 1-2 statues and get over the sandbar, and sudden amount of players overshooting their jump in the first section are the results.

hardy bough
coral glacier
#

I’m unsure and would need a lot of video evidence of people in the third section of PNR to see if the vulnerability time or rock density has decreased.
I still believe it’s rock density that causes the illusion that vulnerability time has decreased, but it needs more evidence.

hardy bough
#

I think you may be correct on that

#

Cause the pattern is definitely not the same

#

Still, I love the changes to Eden to be WAY more brutal

tired vine
coral glacier
#

Increasing rock density in order to deplete player wings faster may be the development oversight that is cluttering players’ screens in the last section as well and making it too hard to see the terrain through the particles.

hardy bough
coral glacier
hardy bough
#

That seems fitting for that part tbh…

#

It’s 3 statues in basically the last area

#

I still prefer this version of Eden over me sitting next to the shard with 80-100 WL slowly dying

fickle reef
#

I personally think it's too difficult. I like the idea that the wind is strongest in the third part but I agree that it's a bit too much.

coral glacier
# tired vine Could it be that if you jump with between 10 and 20 wl, you get blown back if yo...

The physics should only change once you drop to 10, and that’s when you start crawling.
Otherwise the amount of wings you have should not affect knockback physics, only how many wings you drop per hit. The more wings you enter PNR with, the more you drop consistently.
It may be that stunlocking or being blown back is more or less likely on different avatar sizes, due to the way the wind and rock hitboxes are interacting. But the root cause is likely the wind pressure.

serene flare
#

I heard the shocked down by wind and rocks was a side effect so the dev will fix it

coral glacier
#

It’s not properly balanced and likely an oversight in development, so changes need to be made. The changes to Eden only went through a few major iterations before being launched and likely did not have enough time or critical eyes on them.

hardy bough
#

Eden should not be as lenient the further you get into the storm

fickle reef
#

Yeah but it should also be possible.

hardy bough
#

Which if the wind is the issue, literally be fixed soon

hardy bough
#

Cause it goes from losing 5 until I hit around 20, which I start losing around 2-3

coral glacier
#

I believe it’s (damage scaling) implemented so that in a group setting, there aren’t as many runaway players in terms of how far of a distance they go.
Unless you have an elder mask on, which I think is disregarded and messes up the game math.

hardy bough
serene flare
#

I lost 13 wl at once at the first part not also normal

hardy bough
#

It breaks instantly pretty much at that part

coral glacier
#

Oh. Then it is 👎 boowomp? Nevermind on mask boosting in regards to this update.

hardy bough
#

Mask boosting?

coral glacier
#

Using the mask to get you and other players farther in the very last section.

fickle reef
#

Yeah mine broke at like the 3rd statue in endless. Previously it lasted until the dune.

hardy bough
#

Tbh it breaking in the deadzone faster is fine. It’s the deadzone

#

I do hope though more stuff for ascended candles is added

#

Sitting on 753 of them

fickle reef
#

Yeah I'm at like 850 rn

hardy bough
#

Tier 3 blessings for the meme

fickle reef
#

Saving for the likely insane prices of the other elder masks whenever they get added in lol

hardy bough
#

I don’t know if the devs wanna give more items with “powers”

#

Shields are already pretty good

hardy bough
#

So I’m not sure if blessing shields will be given to them ever…

stark lodge
hardy bough
#

I mean some people buy spells with their ascended…

stark lodge
#

Resizes? I got the height I wanted. No point.

#

Lantern spells? I have the permanent version. Event currency? I can just buy with regular candles. Rainbow? No point. Bonfire spell? Again, not really worth it. Anything else?

hardy bough
stark lodge
#

Yup, hence why the addition of more Elder masks would be a incentive to invest in.

hardy bough
#

Part of me kinda hopes old ultimates can be earned through them

stark lodge
#

No, that would really not work well with those who paid for it.

flint flower
#

the way i just did eden and lost 20 wl before the hill with the last statues

#

and died right there. :/

hardy bough
#

Welcome to the Eden stunlock

flint flower
#

sucks all the joy and fun out of eden

hardy bough
#

They’ve already addressed the issue (like are aware of it)

hardy bough
stark lodge
#

I mean, there are old fossils that by now have at least 2k ascended candles just waiting to be used up.

hardy bough
#

Yea but that’s over like 4 years…

stark lodge
#

There's just no winning honestly in this situation.

hardy bough
#

I guess

#

Not sure how else they could make Eden running weekly more worth it

hot terrace
#

so my comment on the new "experience": I saw it working for a moment, get hit occasionally, then jump ahead, evening out in about the same progress done over time

but then it was just "nah, you aint moving anymore", losing 30 lights just standing there

stark lodge
#

I'm sure they will think of something.

hot terrace
#

getting, up, then during getting up seeing your animation glitch to hell and just stay in an endless loop of attempting to get up and "falling" 😂

#

i dont know how this could have passed qa, other than insane luck that it didnt happen in their many, many test runs (i would hope?)

stark lodge
#

Well it was perfect when it was tested in the first build of beta, then it just... got bad.

coral glacier
#

despair DONT JUMP!!! IT’S THE WIND!!! you’ll get stuck in the knocked-back-in-midair animation (looks like your character is pinwheeling) and then get hit by rocks and get stuck in the getting-up-from-wind animation too SkyDeepBow piyokothrowafit

inner flume
#

I just did Eden recently and the stunlocking at the constant rock rain was a pain SkyWhew
I hope they fix it by adding some invulnerability for a few seconds after you get up or prevent the falling animation in the last part somehow pCry

verbal trench
#

Made it through without getting stun locked, not as far as I would usually but no matter. In the following flight sequence through the crumbling city I got stuck in the fallen tower for like fifteen minutes trapped between the ceiling and the updraft until I was lucky enough to get thrust back out a window. Dunno why the whale didn’t turn up to smash it, but I did get launched out the top of the cloud ceiling by a king jellyfish and bobbed around for a while trying to find the route again so maybe the whale timing was off and it spawned before the tower fell…

worldly creek
#

OMG IT’S SO ANNOYING THAT WE LAY DOWN WHEN WE GET HIT BY ROCKS AND THEN STUMBLE BACK DOWN WHEN WE TRY TO MOVE!!!

I was stuck in ONE SPOT for a good 2 minutes cuz my skid WOULD NOT stand back up!!

worldly creek
#

Oh noooo

hot terrace
#

i was actually seeing the new idea on how eden is suposed to go, you get hit, then you get up and run ahead, get hit down again... averaging out to the same progress that you did while crawling... but currently, some people seem to just get their entire progress stopped

coral glacier
#

i can’t send my footage of everything past the last statue because it’s too long so I put it in the promote channel, but like I keep saying, you can’t jump or your character will immediately be knocked down by the wind pressure like it is in your clip

hot terrace
#

i tried with jumping, without jumping, nothing really worked

coral glacier
#

do you get stunlocked when walking?

hot terrace
#

well i tried to walk in the video

#

but before i really got up i already fell ahain

coral glacier
#

yes, there’s a wind wall there that you have to start walking through from the start because the pressure is too high. if you get knocked down, you’re unlikely to be able to push through it at all. you’ll get stuck in the animation loop.

hot terrace
#

oh yeah i saw that, i was being pushed back in tiny increments

#

i didnt even know if it was the rocks or wind

coral glacier
#

the rocks and wind are.. uh, what’s the word, they’re accelerating each other’s negative effects

hot terrace
#

compunding

coral glacier
#

yea

stark lodge
# stark lodge Have this instead.

I haven't gone in with all my winged lights yet but here's me going in with just my wing buffs.

...yeah, my Sky kid didn't register death.

coral glacier
#

for context, walking from statue 62 to 63 took me about 2 minutes of pushing through a wind wall

hot terrace
#

you had 2 minutes to get through there? i went into the last flame with 110 wl

coral glacier
#

i would send my video but i can’t, may i message you?

hot terrace
#

and i still didnt make it even remotely there because i was literally losing wl twice in like a second haha

stark lodge
#

I'm convinced that what I'm seeing from others who got to the dune and through the last statues is that TGC put a wind wall there for no reason.

hot terrace
#

sure

coral glacier
#

i think it’s a design oversight because the wind was a late feature in the development cycle

stark lodge
#

And honestly I've heard some make it to the last statue, too.

hot terrace
#

i kinda want to ask if this was even tested

coral glacier
#

i went through about 5 weeks of beta testing and 4 major iterations (?), but i’m not a beta tester so i only get my information from backreading all the channels every day

hot terrace
# stark lodge And honestly I've heard some make it to the last statue, too.

well as a developer i wanna add my personal opinion

i think if something is busted for an amount of people, it's busted, even if those people aren't 100% of people...

wind and such always had a random component to it in this game, the physics rarely decide the same thing in similar situations, so I believe fully that people have made it through

stark lodge
worldly creek
#

I have funny quotes from today’s trip-

hot terrace
coral glacier
#

A lot of people feedbacked it heavily in beta. I’m feedbacking it now in live. The best routes for change are feedbacking and bug-reporting after gathering as much information as possible.

hot terrace
#

it seems very, very random if you can make it or not

#

the eden gacha, does it let you through the wind wall or not? wanna find out?

stark lodge
#

Right, they had it perfect during the first iteration of it in beta.

#

It's when I believe the rock arch got backend added and that's when it just got bad.

hot terrace
#

i kid, but i'm just trying to highlight the insanity 😂

coral glacier
stark lodge
#

I didn't get to test this current Eden back in beta because I didn't have enough winged light to enter, I barely do enough in beta.

hot terrace
stark lodge
#

But yeah I've heard and seen mostly negative feedback.

hot terrace
#

like, a dev should be able to ship a cherry picked amount of changes and leave others cooking on the oven

coral glacier
#

I can’t make a good call because I’m not a tester or a developer. But I think that the way the game is developed, it’s difficult for them to pick-and-choose or recall what gets in during content shipment.

#

Otherwise there’s no reason a major game-changing feature should get this few iterations and be shipped with only one patch’s time of development.

hot terrace
coral glacier
hot terrace
#

but it seems like theres a deadline at which beta gets eaten like it is no matter how broken some iterations of changes are

stark lodge
#

At this point it doesn't matter if you're a beta tester or not, some content they push out is already planned out ahead of time and so when we do test things it's mainly up to them whether or not it changes. Unless there was another cat hair incident, I don't think they will change much.

hot terrace
#

when in doubt, only publish the content additions for now

coral glacier
#

The way the cat hair is simply a cosmetic item, the code can easily be altered for its price or placement in a shop or spirit UI. The scale of these changes are more far reaching in comparison.

hot terrace
#

yeah changing the basic physical interactions that drive the entire game is on a level where you shouldnt mess with it too easily

stark lodge
#

But uh, this Eden thing is really gonna be put in the oven for some more time I hope. I like that we no longer crawl until a certain amount of WL is dropped, but like RNG shouldn't be a factor in whether you get to the last statue so much.

#

I'm glad we can use emotes when we die though.

hot terrace
#

in the business people always flex with how agile their development is, but this development hasnt been very agile lately

stark lodge
#

I mean, they've done some good, but this Eden thing will surely be fixed so no more stunlocks will occur.

hot terrace
#

it's more like some cooks are working on the big piece of food that is on the central table, and anything that was changed on it, is now what is going out

#

of course, im not saying everything is bad, i just think maybe you only deploy what you're 100% sure of is working and leave the rest in beta

#

nobody would be unhappy to have the eden changes delayed once more

stark lodge
#

I have to give some credit to what they're doing, they're trying to return Eden back to when it was actually enjoyable, the effort is shown and it's there, it's just that the presentation is lacking.

hot terrace
#

yeah, but... you know, deploy that change when it's shiny and perfect

coral glacier
#

There was a failure to realize what they wanted to do because of a breakdown in the development, feedback and testing process, but outsiders like us will never be 100% sure what went wrong I believe.

hot terrace
#

i liked for example that in eden, one click collecs all statues immediately around you now, at once

stark lodge
#

Crawling is realistic, but not so realistic when you have over 200+ winged lights. Having that much energy within your essence you should be able to take a long beating, and it's even more realistic now that you only crawl when you drop low and limp at a certain amount.

#

Elder masks need to be buffed too in my opinion.

#

Or at least if they're going to add the remaining, those will be buffed more than their old counterparts.

coral glacier
#

⬆️ All of these points are why feedback is crucial in all stages of development and the beta testing playerbase needs to be comprised of diverse players willing and able to feedback new features and changes.

hot terrace
#

then after you hit 100, you have slight troubles staying steady, and then it just degenerates more and more

stark lodge
#

I agree.

hot terrace
#

avoiding a stunlock ofc

stark lodge
#

Like heavily.

hot terrace
#

hell people above 200 should have a way to shield their friends with their own WL or something, then we'd have more of a cooperative experience too

#

there's a lot of ideas i think that could be had

stark lodge
#

I might just write up a piece of feedback but uh, let's just go with this: the more winged lights, the more control you have over walking and not losing your footing in the center of the storm?

hot terrace
#

or as an animation, WLs actively fly out and divert a rock

#

then the endless shower would be more endurable if you had some "leniency" in which rocks actually hit you and which get diverted by a wl

#

i mean i wont get too big in what i am wishing for, it's just like, ideas

stark lodge
# stark lodge I might just write up a piece of feedback but uh, let's just go with this: the m...

I'm thinking the energy loss ratio should go something like this:

  • 200+ WL - No flinching whatsoever, good control over walking.

  • 150+ WL - VERY minor flinching, still can walk easily.

  • 100+ WL - Minor flinching, can trip sometimes.

  • 50+ WL - Average flinching, may trip occasionally.

  • 20 WL - Major flinching, trips are common.

  • 10 WL - Critical flinching, can no longer stand, crawling state.

How's this sound?

coral glacier
stark lodge
#

Yeah, I plan to put in my feedback that scaling should be back, so that the less you have, the less you lose.

coral glacier
#

Unless I’m mistaken scaling isn’t gone and players still lose wings on hit when extinguished proportionate to the amount they entered with, but it may slope off towards the end now to make the last moments more climatic in conjunction with the limping and forced crawling. I may also be delusional and there may be no slow dropoff in how many are dropped at the end.

#

I can’t remember if the amount lost per hit is reduced towards the end of your WL count in previous patches.

hot terrace
#

or we make it a shmup, you fly straight through the area, dropping wls down onto statues while shooting rocks with your WLs

pew pew
(sorry SkyLOL )

stark lodge
hot terrace
#

hmm, maybe it shouldn't count for ones given away yet, only for ones lost to hits?

#

i guess that would be weird though

stark lodge

obsidian abyss
# stark lodge Oh jeez is it that bad?

SURE IS!! I came in here to see if other people were having issues as bad as I am and lo and behold. I went in with 168WL, I usually have no trouble hitting the majority of the statues and crawling to the end but I didn’t even make it past the last lamp statue. I was out by 70 before the lamp with three statues right next to it

#

And shards didn’t work the other day?? I feel like I’m owed a couple of AC because that was a Nightmare

stark lodge
#

Yeah, I really want to give it a go with 215 winged light when the TS is here. But now, I'm not so sure.

hybrid portal
#

I had an elder mask too and hasn’t lost any wl until you just immediately do

obsidian abyss
stark lodge
#

Also when I went with just my wing buffs the last time, I used a couple instant recharge potions and I IMMEDIATELY got extinguished not even past the sand dunes. Pre-patch I didn't.

stark lodge

#

How did tgc manage to make Eden way worse 😭😭😭

stark lodge
#

It's in some ways better though, just not all of it is.

hybrid portal
#

Aww pWow forgot reply @obsidian abyss
They have it in #known-issues so it’s not intended but yeah there’s just that one place and it’s like a wall, you can’t not start losing wings once you step in.
They’re working really hard to fix it, but for now, it’s only like 1 AC that’s getting missed for me.

It’s easier on the before I think though? We can move a little bit more after a tiny hit

#

Generally the idea is you get to go more deep as you gain more layers of protection (wl) and so the end should be kind of how far someone with max winged light can get. And that max has increased a lot, so it’s completely understandable if it gets a bit harder but not even the max wings gets anywhere close

#

It’s hard to get it right the first time though pWow so I’m patient with it taking a second for them to make it so it suits everyone pSkyLove

As long as I die in pnr I’ll be able to reach the end part right

I got that lovely windwall at the dune for this second go around for this specific patch. Somehow I didn't hit it the test run I did the other day. Genuinely would've hit the last three statues if it wasn't for that but it caused me to hemorrhage like 50 WLs in that spot.

Wait I wonder if call charging to not fall down is back in the game

Also anyone else notice the whole, you can give winged light to statues near each other at the same time?

dang, after the group and upcoming TS, i'll be at like 60 wings from eden when i leave. considering i think you pick up 10 in eden as you're heading up the mountain, i'll only need to pickup like 10-20 wings while doing daily quests for eden runs in the future LOL
thats pretty nice

lone perch
#

I guess they messed up eden somehow. They gave the last light some more rock cover and it seems they changed the behaviour of your Charakter. You are now walking instead of crouching but in result I just fell over and over and wasn't able to move a single meter. Lost 60 light while constantly lying on the ground without being able to move in an animation lock. Nice

So I went in eden with 175 (all) with chibimask and an Elder mask yesterday
And I managed to get all the statues (15.75 right?) With 3 wl left, It was a flawless run until the last part with everything i had, I didnt try to jump in the last part (im afraid my chibi might got blown back to spawn)

So all statues is possible perhaps, or I was extremely lucky

# warm sparrow I dont have a recording of it, but i think this is kinda how eden used to be, be...

naw cause before crawling was added you had less severe damage reactions meaning you could make it far with full mobility, then once crawling was added everything felt slower (probably why people wanted the changes) but as long as you dodged decently well and had enough WL before you got into crawling you could still perform well enough to get all statues plus you couldn't get stunlocked for as long cause you were already on the ground so no getting knocked on your back and going through a long animation to stand up again.

warm sparrow
#

Thats kinda what i meant by them probably changing damage rates to go with crawling, then changing back from crawling but probably having the same damage rates, heh

magic pollen
#

this new update in some respect is just trying to make eden how it used to be while having the modern game mechanics becoming an barrier to do so and now we are left a worse version compared to either of the previous ones atleast in it's current state

warm sparrow
#

My general thought was crawling maybe felt slower, but you stopped being knocked down and having to wait out that animation, so it may have been faster, and theyd have adjusted damage rates to keep it in line with what it was before

#

And now we're getting blasted at that crit rate while standing pFIRE

yea I think they changed it cause it was being perceived as worse then it was and so tried to make it how it used to be without putting the proper amount of thought and testing given how it is now

#

tho I guess some of the issues are mistakes that will be corrected hopefully soon

I had come back to the game with a multi year break and gotten used to the crawling pretty quick, was goin in with way less light than some people have to use now lol

i hate the new eden updateeestickerEmbarrassed ive always been able to get all the statues, but ever since they removed crawling the red rocks stun me SO bad to the point where i literally cant get up. i was on the hill with like 40 wl left and i couldnt move at all bc of the red rain

#

like hello??😭the same thing is happening to my friend rn

stark lodge
#

I took a rock to the face today before PNR at full energy wearing an Elder mask just going up and helping people climb the mountain but this one Sky kid kept pushing me out of the safe spot a bit so I was frantically moving back and forth between the shelter and as a result I was knocked out back but didn't get extinguished. I didn't even break my mask in the process but I was a little angry at that person.

#

This was like around halfway up the final climb to the tunnel.

#

please reduce the number of rocks at the end by 20%. i literally couldnt see what was going one because they were so dense. and make a cooldown for being knocked over of like 10 seconds. then that should be pretty well ballanced. last week with 165 wings and a elder mask, i made it 10 seconds past the last statue without much trouble. this week i made it about 1 second past the second last statue starting with 170 wings.

they made eden so angry bro 😭 i used to get to the last statue with at LEAST 65 wl left. today, i barely made it to the sandy hill…. i got stuck in a never ending stand up, crawl loop, which made me unable to move 😔✌️ gonna part ways with eden until it’s completely fixed

#

so glad its not jsut me whose been struggling 😭

#

i’m guessing they probably just made it harder,,,? but im not sure

should i just go to eden today while i have less wl instead of going on runs for like 140 and then losing it all for an extra 0.75 ac 💀

#

oh my goodness the stunlock is so painful. I usually go into eden with 160-175 wls and an elder mask, and don’t lose my light until i get to the sandy hill. I never had any problem getting all the statues. This week i never made it beyond the hill, just got stuck in a loop over and over again of getting blasted by these damn rocks. I was normal size, so next week i think i’ll see if chibi works better, but honestly the crawling was fine with me. I do like the improved rock shelters, though

Did anyone have a hard time jumping on Eden? The rocks were more aggressive than the falling rock from Mario bros. Me and my friends barely made it to the end.

Chibi isn’t better on pnr. It made me jump on the covers and get stunned so much.

#

It was at the middle. When the water is about to start? Hard to explain

#

Even so, just don't jump in Eden. That increases your chances of being stunlocked, past the last torch or not

That's how it works nowSkyShrug by trying to jump you only slow yourself down more, it's counterintuitive at that point

#

In the second zone it has a constant but very weak rain. However, red spotlights on the floor move around, in which the intensity of the rain in that area increases

#

To avoid them, just pay attention to where most of the rain near it is coming from, most likely where it came from will die down in frequency real soon, unless another spotlight enters that area

I notice a ton of people still run the spotlights, and with the changes to Eden, that’s a VERY fast way to lose a few WLs

#

For zone 1, I would say if it’s raining shards for a bit, it’s actually semi safe to go a bit early, cause if you get hit, you can just retreat real quickly to regen most of the time

#

It’s a lot of timing stuff

sour sun

#

It does give you a little more room to push a bit further, even if it shatters immediately

The mask itself can handle two hits before breaking in Eden

Did chibi help anyone with pnr? Does it make a difference in terms of getting stunlocked?

is it just me or is it getting way harder to do eden now SkyScared i can barely get to the diamond at the end of eden with 150+ wl and i get knocked back way too frequently... i used to be able to get all the statues last time, but now it's so difficult with the amount of times im getting knocked back SkyDontGo

How do I understand that I need to go to eden? Or what is the point of going there?? I’m new sorry 🙏

It’s currently the only way to get ascended candles; another very important currency that you need to be able to fully experience the game by giving them to spirits in order to access everything. After you do Eden the first time, you can also then see all the spirits from past seasons and start collecting their base expression; this way when they return as travelling spirits, you can unlock them
After you’ve done it once and the hotpatch happens, you might be able to just get AC from shards if you really don’t wanna do it again

My friends and I had exactly this problem. We did Eden just after the update and it was AWFUL. We kept getting downed even at the start?? At some point we couldn't even get further – our skykids were stuck because they kept getting up instead of crawling – it was honestly very frustrating. I know Eden isn't supposed to be a good part in sky but now I'm ready to just relate on the shards to get some ascended candles. 🙌

Totally agree eden is horrible now. It literally was perfect in 2020-2021 and so on, I could make it til the end of the statues and further so smoothly. I took a break from the game and just came back 2 months ago and I disliked the crawling so much, but it’s better than what happens now where with 188 wl, I couldn’t even make it to some statues before the hill. So disappointing.

That fix better come next week together with the one to adress the inability to do Shard events and AURORA quests!

Eden is really bad now,lots of people are complaining about it. Getting spam hit by red shard is over board TGC before the update eden was perfect they have to change it back ;-; I went to eden 2 days ago and that is the last time im going until they fix it. 😔

I feel like even in the beginning areas of Eden the shards were still crazy, cause before I used to run and minimally get hit even when it was raining but this time I kept getting knocked down

Dude, I love the extra cover, but if they're going to keep the wind and the untrackable rockfall, we need more fallen kids before the point of no return.
If we can only get a max of 16 ac each week, either things need to get cheaper or they need to go back to a doable challenge.

Hello, I have a problem with Eden, I can't get out of it in any way, l've already died in it, but because I left the game for a minute, l can't go into orbit for rebirth, I tried to restart many times and uninstall the application, but I still stay in Eden, Does anyone know how to solve it?

Are you inside pnr now?

once you successfully chibi fall the gate, go thru eden up till statue area (avoid picking up any WL along the way)
if it works, you should immediately 'die' the moment you step into the dark water

My favourite part of eden is when ur trapped against a wall and lose 40 wings in 10 seconds !!

Is it just me or is anyone else having trouble with the stunlock- like this was absurd. I know back when the crawl wasn't a thing you would get stun locked pretty easily, but I was virtually stuck in the same area for an entire minute because I kept getting stunned? I got to this little area with 40 wings and in an entire minute lost all of it because I kept getting stunned and couldn't really move (ignore the music)

Like I used to be able to reach the end no problem but I couldn't even pass the sand this time

I tried Eden with the forest elder mask ornament today. it was fine till I got over the hill toward the diamond with the last three statues

the stunlock was frustrating, but what peeved me the most was all the visual clutter keeping me from seeing the second to last statue pFIRE

I got disoriented and started going the wrong way because I couldn't see it anymore

but I came out with 14 ascended candles so not as bad as it could

Attempted eden again after not doing it for a long time and I still hate it just as much. I could be wrong but near the end when rocks were nonstop I felt like it just straight up stunlocked me where I couldn't even get a few more

#

Also It still bugs out near the end when you die. At least they made the wait to continue shorter

#

Also there's this skykid here that's not actually a player I have no idea what this is but it's just stood here menacingly
