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!

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.

You say you cheesed the salmon mount to get to the island. Did you skip the owl mount altogether? Because the northern winter/mountain area where you find it might be the area you should check out.

The owl opens up the rest of the map and gives new areas to explore. Chalice of Tar, Quintar Sanctuary, the Giant Hellraiser Cube to the west, etc.

You can access the castle as soon as you have the Ibek mount but I definitely wouldn't recommend it at that point.

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.

You should be able to climb further up by jumping onto the next level from here:

If you reach a long bridge going north/south, there should be a platform on the left side at the same elevation that you can't reach otherwise and will probably require your Quintar to jump to. That's where you need to go to progress.

That's the part I missed for a while.

I'm going a little crazy on this, quitting for the night... so i'll ask

In the 2nd Quintar Race on Eastern Chasm there is a path down and an extremely difficult (well, under the conditions in the spoiler) jumping puzzle... I was able to get to the solid pillars in the 4th room and not sure how much longer that is.

...I should probably just find a way to get there under normal conditions since that would remove all the urgency.

That is one of the most difficult jumping puzzles in the game! There are 5 floors. The platforming on the final floor is not difficult, so you are nearly at the end. It is possible to clear this with a normal Quintar during the race with almost perfect jumping, but that's very hard and it was designed to be cleared during the race using the Golden Quintar instead. I think there may be a way to reach this spot under normal conditions to remove the urgency, but it would be an unintended path.

Can confirm you can get their under normal conditions and you don't need the golden quintar to do so. It was one of the last places on the map I managed to worm my way into in my playthrough, though; it wasn't until nearly the end before I found a launching point I could use to get there with the owl, and even then it was a close thing.

Edit: I pulled up the game to recall the route. You can get there by flying off of the east side of the Chalice of Tar. I think any of the high points on the eastern ridge will work, but there's one particular tree that gives you some extra height so that you have plenty of clearance to make the flight.

Heh.... the Skeleton Key cannot open the door between Tal Tal and Land's End

How do I reach the red door in the upper right of the first section of slip glide ride? I'm at the chest above the two stone blocks and the ink pool. Is it a precision Ibek jump? Cos I am not getting it.
Thanks dev.

The trick is that you need to Ibek jump immediately after landing on the block -- if the block starts dropping you're too low to make the jump.

The Ibek doesn't stop moving immediately when you start charging the jump... so the trick is to time things so that you charge the jump while you are sliding off the edge of the ledge above, and then you can jump immediately after landing on the falling block.

(I assume you're talking about the jump I'm thinking of)

Yeah, that's the one. Bugger, it's more precise than I thought!

The Crag Demon is making me want to uninstall this, I just can't dodge it and it keeps oneshotting my party. This is really really frustrating.

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.

It's from like three years ago, but I ran into this same issue and if there's anything on the board or guides that actually answers that, I couldn't find it. Drove me up the wall, but as it turns out! You can load the ruddy thing up in crystal edit and just look it up. So I did, and now I'm hopefully saving someone else the effort.

The answers for the treasure finder quiz questions are as follows! I'm lifting them directly from the editor 'cause I'm lazy like that and also because it somewhat mod proofs things, but they're mostly pretty obvious from the context.

Which item did you need to collect several of to get the map of the @Z3.Name? B!
Why didn't @M219.Name and @M220.Name want you to go near @Z58.Name? A!
Which @V.Job is granted by the crystal found in @Z14.Name? A!
Of the following eyeballs, which does the Quintar Enthusiast hate the most? B!
How many participants are present during the Salmon Run? C!
How many crystals are currently required to obtain a @I7.Name? C!
What's the behavior sequence? A!
In which of these regions can you obtain the @A225.Name summon? B!

Hope that helps someone out there, ha.
