"protective pendant" nonsense

[Xeun]

this quest is dumb pls change it, no clues or directions given. "Follow the blood trails etc etc" ... the game should not make me have to ALT TAB and leave the game and look ♥♥♥♥ up on steam forums, keep me in the game please.

How do you think the solution appeared on the forums? People have solved the puzzles themselves, like i did.
Don't blame the game for looking up the solution, that's on you.

Unfortunately a lot of games have us looking up the answers. It's bad game design but it's the norm.

Like in Pokemon to evolve Inkay it needs to be level 30 and then leveled up while the game system is held upside-down. You would never find that on your own.

I basically found it by accident.

"Oh, there's a blood trail on the ground. I wonder if it leads anywhere?"

"Oh, the book in the middle says it goes in both directions? Sure."

The one I had to look up was in the second stage.

It literally does not tell you. I found what to do in the forums.

every other quest until this one was straight forward, the quest is vague and dumb and halts progress in a game where literally everything else is meaningless numbers going up. In hindsight yes maybe I could have figured it out, but I am not playing this game to think my bro

Dunno if this helps, but you can't find the trails if the game timer is up

The quest is dumb, and I stand by my criticism

This has gotta be bait.

"Follow blood trails."

1. There are two blood trails leading away from the book.
   
2. Follow a trail. Do mechanic. Grab piece.
   
3. Follow back.
   
4. Follow other trail. Do mechanic. Grab piece.

Congrats. You've exercised basic critical-thinking skills.

Yes, it's bait. And it worked. He's gotten the clown award he wanted.
