Humpf, don't think so. they don't have that many time 2 do that, w the new plot and all. it would consume too much time to do 11 clues or tasks again

My bet on the next plot is lutari island

If you switch all of the things to on (+/up) in the left room and the main room and then just play with the ones in the last room it should/could work. Of course, they shouldn't all be switched on, that would cause a flood. Here was mine:

Left room: ++
Main: ++UP
Right: down,up,down

Note: I had flooded Altador once before getting this. I didn't try it before flooding, but someone did mention that you may have to flood Altador before your combination works.


I agree that doing this works. Althought what really should be done is this:
set the left and main rooms as shown above. then click randomly in the right room until it works, or it floods and you ahve to start again. i did that and it worked


I gotta agree with Match... ::sigh:: after doing this idiotic puzzle for hours yesterday, hours today, i set the left and main as above. but my right room was down up up. it happened in less than a minute when i tried it that way. Sometimes I really really do not like TNT... just saying!


I tried all combos with the switches set that way, and it didn't work for me.

Farmer Follies congratulates you when you stop the flooding.

Funny thing is, he is outside the city walls, and wouldn't be affected by the flood until it spilled over.

Also, where does one find enough water underground to flood an entire city up to what appears to be 60 feet high?

Crazy Theory #2: The archives are in a strange lost woods like arrangement-there is a specific, randomized set (you know, the whole "can't have them all doing the same thing" policy) sequence of walking to find the special room or whatnot.

I bet you need to put the nexklace on your chosen statue from the start of the plot, or you need to find a new power source.

Or, another theory, find somewhere to shine the sun through the necklace, which will mark out the place to go for the next part

That's what I thought... it could be your neopian zodiacal sign, or something.

Try flooding Altador to reset then do it. That's how i did it... ::shrug:: Flood then set the left and main rooms, then played with the other switches, 6 clicks and approx 40 seconds later it worked.

like i said earlier, my statue's picture is missing, so i can't necklace him.
he's Torakor, the Gladiator; could someone with a differan tchosen statue check, to see if it's a universal problem?
EDIT: nm, now he's there. nothing happens when he's necklaced, as far as i can tell. (2 feet, btw)

Oh my gosh. I just got it rerouted... I spent a few hours last night trying to figure it out and after about 4 tries, I got it! AHH! Good luck to everyone else trying to get it to work. I just did a random combonation...

Actually, if it was flooding, considering that the water is on the walls, it would go to both sides. That's just my opinion, though. I've never seen a river just flood one side of the banks.

I was lucky. I tried my first pattern (after flooding altador for fun) and it worked. I was like: Whoa. YES!

So...yeah...now I've found that constellation and have nothing to do. Ho hum.

Time to go look for clues!

Do we know if they're even released yet?

Wow, it's been a long time since anyone brought that up! The statue from the beginning (the one you found your oil behind, right?) was completely random. You could choose any statue and refresh on it and you'd eventually get your oil, or you could go to multiple statues and find oil behind each of them. So it won't be that.

But it does imply that one statue will be energized or even transformed by the necklace after we get a clue which one. Perhaps one of the heros is hidden in stone afterall. Or maybe it will just be what is needed to find the last constellation.

For everyone who hasn't gotten past the water plant yet, I thought I'd post my pictures in case it's the same for eveyone. If it isn't well it might help you know where the water is supposed to be.
I was also in the left room when it got fixed. Also you are taken directly to the front when you fix it, so don't worry.

ok...everyone forgot to mention that you have to make sure the valves in the room to the right were not up before turning all the others up... i'm a little slow and flooded altador 3 times before i finally figured out to go first to the room on the right and make sure at least one of the valves are down!!

edit...i went back and did it that way...went to the room to the right, turned the farthest valve to the right down, then went on to switch the rest up in the other rooms. i got to the last switch, turned it "up" and i was done! on with the plot!
