Please Help, I'm Stuck!

[River Running Games]

If you've run out of places to explore and you're stuck, I hope that one of the scenarios below sounds familiar. Please feel free to check for a hint. I hope it helps!

I'm missing one of the three crystals.

Crystal #1: Inside The Pale Grotto.
Crystal #2: There is a tent encampment in the Seaside Cliffs. Head directly east of the encampment and follow the river to a waterfall.
Crystal #3: Head west from the Proving Meadows and follow the path in Delende. At the broken bridge, head a bit south and hop across the trees. Continue along the path through the second floor of the central Delende cave.

Where do I get a Brutish Quintar Eyeball?

There is a cave below the Rolling Quintar Fields. It is said that Brutish Quintar like to run around in here.

I just got a pass that lets me ride a Quintar, but I don't know where to go from here.

Try using the Quintar to hop along the top of the trees in the Rolling Quintar Fields. There might be a new place to explore to the north of this region.

I'm in the Capital Jail and I ran out of Cell Keys.

Try heading all the way to the end of the East Wing. The water is shallow and you should be able to get by. Just make sure not to touch any jellyfish!

I got all the way to the end of Salmon River, but it's a dead end.

Try going back to the Capital Courtyard and climb on top of the walls. From here, try heading far to the east while avoiding the Crag Demon.

A lady lost her son. Where can I find her son?

Exit Sara Sara Bazaar through the east gate into Poko Poko Desert and hug the right wall. You will eventually stumble upon him.

I can't find the Central Lookout Token.

Exit Sara Sara Bazaar through the east gate. Head north until the cliff, but don't jump down. Instead, jump onto the treasure chest, jump up the cliff, then hop across the rock posts.

I've somehow wandered into a desert early in the game and everything is relentlessly murdering my party. I set a Home Point in a nearby area and now I'm stuck! How to I get out of here?

There is a way to get out, but it's a long journey! It's definitely not the normal way to go, but I hope that you'll get some adventure out of it:

• Head to the east gate of Sara Sara Bazaar. The lady is missing her son.
  
• Head out the gate and follow the path. Hug the right wall for a long time. Eventually you'll find her lost son.
  
• Return to the lady and she'll give you a ferry pass.
  
• Ride the ferry from the west dock in town.
  
• When you reach Shoudu Province, just keep going west.
  
• You'll reach a difficult jump over a broken bridge. You need to jump off the lamp to reach the other side.
  
• Keep going west and eventually you'll find your way back to somewhere you're supposed to be. I hope!

EDIT: It's under, right, then up for anyone else who runs into this.

EDIT EDIT: Well, that was one part, but now I'm stuck again lmao. Can't figure out what the deal with the goat is.

Would love to see more hints in the original post - the game is fun to explore.. until you've filled out every area you know about/can find, and no NPCs give any real directions, and you just didn't stumble on that one small tunnel that leads to the one next area or whatnot. Exploring stops being fun when you have no direction and are looking for the needle in a haystack, with the haystack only becoming increasingly larger.

Having vague level ranges pop up with the name of the areas when you enter would be a HUGE help as well just so there's some kind of "should I be here at all or come back later", or vice versa.

Somewhere cold. Tall Tall Heights, north of Greenshire Reprise

The Quintar Reserve does become accessible at kind of an awkward spot in the game considering what you need to actually interact in the zone. I've seen quite a few people confused by what to do there.

Is it supposed to be really difficult to get by the Crag Demon or am I doing it wrong?

I had a lot of trouble with this area too. Without being too direct, you can go around- try going down first, iirc. If you reach a goat, then it's time to head upwards.

It's partly that I don't know where I should go right now, and partly that I'm not sure where I can go right now.

I've found my way as far as The Undercity, and I have the Quintar whistle and three stones, Gaea, Poseidon and Mars. Also looking at the deck of monsters there's a massive gap between the guys in The Undercity and the last place I felt like I was actually keeping pace with the game's difficulty curve, BUT there's isn't a big gap in the areas I've missed.

I'm hitting brick walls with the only content I can find right now that I haven't already beaten. It feels like I should be able to acquire another mount to ride, possibly in the water or maybe something that can jump higher, but as it is I am at a loss for how to procede.

It sounds like you might have missed the pyramid in the desert, accessible after collecting the tokens from the 3 outposts. Getting into The Undercity that early is actually a skip.

[marbeltoast]

I am right now doing just that. I found it after looking at your prior listed hints at the top of this thread. Thanks for the assist, anyway, and thanks for making a game I love getting lost in!

[River Running Games]

Honestly it's very exciting (to me at least) that you found your way into The Undercity that early. :)

I can't get all the  8 quizs question  correct.

I'm confident about about 16 salmons races, 7 crystal required for quintar, but really can't remember correct answer to the rest 6 questions 

Please Help! Want the  Ult. treasure finder so bad.

I'm at Ninja Yashkia at the top of Okimoto N.S. but I can't find the shadow crystal. What am I missing? I've been through the building and see stairs that I haven't found a way to, and can't seem to find a path onto the surrounding walls.

I don't really understand this difficulty spike or how I'm supposed to progress without hours of grinding (grinding in this game is extremely tedious since there's no way to make it faster like the consecutive battle system in Bravely Default 2 or anything). I'm in more or less end-game so I'll just type a big spoiler block describing my situation, beware it's spoilers for end-game.

I'm level 44, I've totally cleared the pyramid, volcano, Shodu under-city, and gotten the crystal and some gear from the sky arena. I've cheesed the salmon mount and swam to the jungle island, grabbed some OP gear for a couple of my guys, the others are wearing the best stuff I've found in shops and dungeons.

My character setups are as follows (primary/secondary):

1. Dervish/Warlock, gold wand, tower shield, blood hat, shelter dress, caster's ring, quiet shoes
Passives: Equip wand, refresher, equip shield

2. Fencer/Rogue, Flamspike, viking's hat, combat vest, poison talon, crit fang
Passives: Backstabber, equip dagger, blood spiller

3. Assassin/Warrior, Gaia Axe, combat band, Gaia Vest, hemoring, bulk belt
Passives: Counter, perfect vision, blood spiller, venom coat

4. Assassin/Hunter, Rune Bow, Captain's Hat, Brigandine, Crit Fang, Hemo Ring
Passives: Counter, covert, perfect vision, blood spiller

My party does some pretty fat damage I think, most attacks from all of them do right around 1k or 1k+ with a crit (2 and 4 almost always crit, 3 just does insane damage with the axe so he often hits 2k+). They also all have a bit of self-healing other than number 2 (they tend to stay the bottom threat) and my first person usually does 700+ group damage and revives people when they die.

I can't really seem to go any farther. The castle is too hard for me, I get two-shot by the boss in the lava area. The jungle is too hard too, the wild boars and dinosaurs kill me in a turn or two as well. There doesn't seem to be anything else I can do to progress or get stronger without an absurd amount of grinding. Grinding sucks in this game, so I'd rather not have to do that. Any ideas? Is there an area I'm missing or something?
