I can’t heal coral - Am I blind?

[meager talon]

Hey so, I’ve played through this game before, so I know what I’m doing, but I’m trying to heal this area, and I have cleared ALL of the trash, and come back on different days, but I still can’t find the little orange “node” (crystal? power source?). There’s no where else I can go other than this one spot (all other mechanisms are either blocked or completed). Any tips to help me find this silly node?

It’s so frustrating. It’s been so laggy, and hard to select the nodes since last March. 😔

Can you see it (node) in the image? Am I just blind and dumb?

Thanks for your help and time, friends!

Have you tried other areas too?

sometimes the orb is a bit farther

😮

I am having the same issue in the same location. I'm starting to think it's a bug.

[serene hazel]

Is this a 'hint' or a legitimate question? Because I'm having the same issue and I've cleared every piece of trash that's accessible in the gold kelp areas.

Usually when you can't find it near the node, you'll find it a bit further. Sometimes you missed it and left it. If that happens, you need to wait 2-3 weeks 😮

There is a bug with them, like OP mentioned. It's repeatable if you uncover more than one node at once, the second one won't be selectable until the next day. I haven't reported because I didn't see anyone else reporting it so thought it was just me.

In those cases there's no choice but to leave it and I guess get locked out for weeks in game?

This is the only area I can use at the moment. All further areas are blocked off.

The next day in what sense? It’s been 3 ingame weeks and I can’t find that effing thing. There is no trash respawn, and I can’t find that stupid node no matter now hard I look! 😭😭😭

If you are indeed at this EXACT node, please report the bug, and tag me, so I can also 👋🏻 on it, to confirm to devs it’s not just you

[serene hazel]

Will do.

[serene hazel]

What's the reasoning behind the weeks long wait? Is there a system reset coded into the game or something like that?

[quartz socket]

It's the programming for the trash. The trashes will start appearing again after 2-3 weeks, and the orb can only be found under the trashes 😄

[meager talon]

But it has been **more than ** 3 weeks, in-game. 🥺

[serene hazel]

I wouldn't call that a bug fix 😒
