Has anyone tried to use a Dream Gate to skip the flower quest?
As in set a Gate in the Queen's Garden, go get the Flower, then teleport back. I haven't tried it yet, but that quest has been pissing me off for days.

You might be able to cheese that, but I assume they'll patch it (if they haven't thought of it already) to break upon teleport. She did say it was fragile.

The update says there are certain areas that the dream world isn't as connected to. I had tried putting a dream gate in a stag station and it didn't work. I would definitely say you shouldn't be able to put a dream gate in there, but I haven't tested it myself.

Tryed to place gate - successful, but that was without flower.
And ofc successfully teleported at grey mourney house.

I placed a gate in the garden and went to get the flower - as soon as you teleport the flower is destroyed

Thanks. I figured they probably thought of this. Does seem kind of strange that you can ride the tram without damaging the flower, but I'm not complaining.

You can still place a gate in grey mourners house to quicly restart if it breaks

You can also slam into a wall at mach 1, but hey, who's counting, right?

The whole quest is an annoyance already because of how butt-clenching some of the areas [Queen's Garden especially] are to get through without taking damage even if you've cleared the path ahead of time. If they didn't want you completely cheesing the quest, they could have simply made Queen's Garden one of the areas not 'inkable', so rather than dropping one right outside the stag station or the grave spot, you gotta still go from one of the entrances. Heck, I'd have made Dream Gate one of the *last* abilities you get, even after awakening the Dream Nail. It'd make sense given that the reward for this quest is likely one of the last collectibles you'll be grabbing in a run, and the Dream Gate only seems to really shine in endgame collection cleanup.

What for? Quest so easy. Especially if you do not use benches.

If you dreamgate at the flower and then bench at the stag in gardens, you can just go back, get the flower, and then quit out and you'll be basically next to the grave (or at least with WAY lest obstacles)

This topic is five years old. Also, that doesn't work : Getting the flower from the Gray Mourner sets your current bench to the one right outside.
