Valmallos's threshold Puzzle clock

[RedComand]

So I know how that puzzle clock works. I managed to get all the clock arrows on the clock pointing to 6.
After you first pointed them to 12, otherwise you can't point them to 6. But there is a platform missing, you can see for yourself where that purple-pink lamp is. But the platform is not there. I looked everywhere but couldn't find a switch anywhere. Is it a bug in the game or did I do something wrong in some way?

Read walkthrough on Neoseeker, maybe you missed something. Do every step from the beginning, like written in walkthrough - so you will find what step you missed.

I read it but whoever wrote this article as hints. he doesn't know anything about that puzzle clock either. Nothing is mentioned about that clock and why that platform is not there. And I also did all the quests. There was nothing left to do.

Think I read somewhere that it's a trickster thing, but I might just be making that up. (Not intentionally though - I really do think I read that somewhere.)

All three hands? I've never been able to make one of them move away from 12 at all - only two have moved.

I can explain it to you if you want it and you can't figure it out, but I will mark it with spoilers so that I don't accidentally reveal it to those who want to try to solve it themselves. My English isn't the best and google translator isn't the best either but it's at least something.

I did notice something remarkable that one of those platforms makes a clicking sound before you get there. I'll try one more time later without touching that one before you get there.

What's to explain? If you managed to move all three hands, then the answer to my question is "yes" - no need to explain it to me since I'm obviously beneath you and not worth your time.

If, on the other hand, one of the hands never moves and is always pointing to the 12, then the answer to my question is "no". Still might be wrong in my guess about it being trickster path exclusive. (Still not worth your time, of course.)

Of course I would like to explain it to you. But I have experienced in the past that when you reveal something, some people become angry and prefer to solve or discover it themselves. That's why I've become a bit more careful about that.

And of course you want to spend my time talking to other players and people. But I don't always have the time for it, for example, I have to eat right now and have to do something else. I'll be back to explain as soon as possible so please be patient.

I will do my best to explain it as best as possible.

Clock hands are placed together in the wrong way to make it more difficult or to make it easier. I'm not sure why.


There are 3 switches.

Switch 1 always moves the hour hand back 3 hours. The smallest hand is the top one.

Switch 2 always moves the minute hand 25 minutes when the minute hand has turned 1 full round, it then moves the hour hand forward 1 hour.

Switch 3 moves the seconds hand forward 5 seconds. The seconds hand never moves the other hands. And it is not moved by those other hands.

All you have to do after everything hits 12. (which is impossible to do wrong)

1. Go to switch 3 and move it to 6. It is the switch with the elevator going up.
2. Then go to switch 2 and press it until the minute hand touches 6.
3. Check whether the hour hand touches 9 or 12 or 3. If not, keep pressing switch 2 until it happens and the minute hand touches 6 again. And see if the hour hand touches 9 or 12 or 3.
4. Once that is done, go to switch 1 and keep pressing it until it touches 6.

Let me know if you still get it or not. If not, I'll try to make a recording to show how it works.

So if Switch 3 only moves the seconds hand and nothing else moves it, why is it necessary to point them all to 12 first? Seems like you should be able to move the seconds hand to 6 first and then move the other two.

I don't know why that is, but you will find a note about it. And I already mentioned this once.

If you can use switch 3, the one with that elevator. This means that you have already reset the clock where you used switches 1 and 2. The order did not matter which of the first used 2 because they all go to 12 the first time.

[RedComand]

Forgot to add that. The only thing I know when you first reset the clock is to have all the hands point to 12. It lowers the platform leading to the boss battles. But before you get there you will get a strength boost. So if you have trouble on that level, try fighting in other places. You can go back with that strength boost if you stop walking further.

I was stuck on this for a while. The key thing is to find the third switch. It's easy to overlook, but it's on top of one of the clock weight/pillars. That'll move the third hand.

From what I understand you have to say specific things to certain npc's and pass certain skill checks before entering that area to get there so that last platform drops down to do a secret boss fight or find treasures I guess. But I haven't tried it yet
