Lost Desert Plot Discussion #121 (Summary in First Post)

[Casi]

Help I tried to go back to the riddle room in the temple to get another crystal, but it didn't do anything. Has this happened to anyone else?

Gah, so many darned hours of fustration down the drain if this is where I have to quite just because some stupid random event. I even had 47 items in my inventory asides from the scroll.

Edit: After checking to see if I could get the last crystal and checking the model to see if the scroll was there, I went back to the chef. To recieve the first crystal. Looks like I'll be doing this whole darn thing again

try just going to the traps again and see if you can get the crystals. I am not sure you have to do them all over again.

First, what does the fortune teller say while you have no scroll? That would be interesting to see.

Second, try going to the model room and then pasting this in the url: http://www.neopets.com/desert/ldp/repos ... oom_shhh=1

It might work, it might not. I don't know, just a guess.

I'm afraid not, I've heard from many people who were in the same situation as you that the sequence for both white scrolls was different. On a positive note though, you'll already know the exact locations of your red, yellow and blue scrolls and you can already skip one combination!

oh my goodness i forgot to read a scroll twice!

is there a way round this instead of reading all my scrolls all over again? im looking for my second crystal

Nope, I'm afraid you'll have to start from the beginning again. So if you're not doing it already, make sure to write down the location of every scroll, so you don't have to search for them again if you ever have to redo your sequence again.

[Uracil]

how do i restart? do i simply go off for my first scroll or is there a need to go out, as i had read others after the wrong scroll

[Plagatus]

You should be able to just go to your first and proceed, no exiting necessary.

[dunno]

hmph.... a little problem here and i am way behind from you guys. i am very sure that i have inserted the crystal, got the lights, looked at my catalogue and compared it with my tablet and crystal and got the correct 12 scrolls that im suppose to find.

the real problem now is that, ive tried clicking on the scrolls (all 12 of them) in the correct order for 5 times now and without success. has this ever happened to anyone or i am really doing something wrong? will post screenies later maybe someone can help.

bummer ahh well, ill catch up eventually.

dunno, assuming this is first crystal stuff...

You've placed the colors onto your tablet, sorted the color-symbols into color groups, sorted the color groups into order according to the dots on top of your crystal, then arranged each of those sets of colors according to your Catalog, reading downward?

Ie. if you have a red lat, red nem, blue saf, yellow saf, and yellow ben, and your crystal dots were BYR, and your catalog's Yellow category listed ben before saf, your catalog's Red category listed lat before nem, then you'd read BSaf YBen YSaf RLat RNem.

ok i got through to the step where you fall into a spike trap. but no matter what i do i can't get the new crystal is there some trick to it. i tried like four times but the crystal just doesn't show up

[stampsyne]

You must click on the skull and be taken to the second page to get the crystal.

quick question:

has anyone followed the following logic for color order on the whtie scrools:

do it in order they appear on your repo.

E.g. if you have a tep, and your blue repo has tep at the top, red repo has tep in hte middle, and yellow repo has tep second to bottum, you read them blue red yellow. If you then have fer, and blue has fer 8th, red has fer 6ths, and yellow has fer 7ths, you read red yellow blue

yes this is indeed the first crystal. i will post some screenies up later and hopefully understand the situation better and explain in detail what ive done to see what i have been doing wrong so far. thanks for your response.
