So, this is your answer to my complaint about the placement of some of the heart pieces... Amazing    Es para matarte, macho. Why do you like to give free heart pieces in that way? It's a big contrast in comparison to the difficulty in the dungeons xD

 

Time for a third round of IoR. I have a lot of nostalgia about this amazing quest.

Three heart pieces were missing in a previous update, so they were fixed/reintroduced. The music room piece was one of the new three.

 

Heart pieces ARE easy to find, but on the other hand you really do need a LOT of health in this quest. Some gimmies help keep the player from being too overwhelmed if they aren't so good at secret hunting.

I know, but that isn't a good excuse for the poor placement of some of the hearts. Some of them are positioned in extremely lazy and rushed forms. This is the best example xD Evan could have created new minicaves for them.

 

Don't get me wrong, I love Isle of Rebirth. But these are the type of details that can do the difference between an amazing quest and a masterpiece. For me, the experience with this quest was a bit like a rollercoaster. 

 

By the way, I think the first levels of this quest are underrated, I rarely see someone praising much the first levels (1-2-3). Sure, they don't have a super ultra cool new gimmick, but the layouts are pure perfection and joy (and the atmosphere), specially L2. When I played a bit of the old beta, only L1 was enough for me to see that this quest would be a milestone for ZC.

I'm going to be streaming this quest in a few minutes. I'm at the final level (Level 12) and I'll hopefully finish this quest today We'll see.

Alright, I finally found my missing key in Level 12 and managed to get to Venser today. Then, issues happened and I had to end the stream.

I'll finish him off either tomorrow or on friday

[Avaro]

Will be streaming now. www.twitch.tv/avvatro

I've been collecting the skulls, and it seems I have not yet explored one of the bonus dungeons yet. I'm talking about the one, you need to complete the trading sequence for... anyways, I'll be going to fight Venser first!!

[Russ]

The dungeon you unlock for getting all the skulls ignores very easy and jumps straight up to normal, so, well, good luck.

[Avaro]

Going to play Blighted Abyss tomorrow

[Avaro]

I'm going to try fighting Stan now. Maybe I have more luck on him this time

Edit: Damn you Stan! You sure are the most evil boss of ZC. Couldn't beat him xD

It took me a week, but I finally beat Stan :0

 

This boss is way too difficult and unfair, I can't even believe I got through all of this. I was playing the quest on very easy, so it was especially difficult for me.

OK...I'm completely lost here. I got the bow from the moblin in the jail but I have no idea where to learn how to use them. I know I need the arrrows to get into the swamp dungeon, but I've wandered through all the areas accessible to me for at least 30 minutes and I haven't found anything. But I do have a hunch that the arrows are a part of the trade quest...I'm currently at the egg. What am I missing here?

 

Oh phooey, never mind. It in  the cave at the north of the first forest. Silly me!

So I found the first entrance to level 3, and I'm pretty sure I did everything I could there. I've been looking everywhere, and cannot find the second entrance to level 3, however. I found a secret cave, that I thought was the secret entrance, but it was just a Goron telling me there's a second entrance.

[Russ]

To reach the second entrance, you need to go south from the second town (the one just east of the quarry), then down and around the quarry along the beach and enter from the west.

What's the deal with everyone calling him Stan?  I thought his name was Tartaros!

[Russ]

It comes from an inside joke in the IoR beta testing group. He's an obvious reference to Satan, and somehow along the line (maybe a typo, maybe a joke, I honestly don't remember now) Satan got shortened to Stan. And now Stan has become his unofficial official name.
