That’s a lot of ascended mats. Everything else is easy to get.
- DaGhostDS
  
  The bloodstone dust is a joke to get, already have 800 from the chest/container i stocked from champions, not sure for the rest tho.
  - Zan
    
    Well good luck with “the rest”.
Anni

Holy crap…that IS a lot of mats.

New dreamer footfalls – Staiphos
Vael Victus

I hope we can get these through laurels… even if they’re 50+ laurels. I’d rather just make a legendary!
Jake Byers

New dreamer footfalls!!! – Staiphos (Idk why so many photos happened sorry)
Inflambia

incinerator footfalls. not really different.
kamohoali’s blood comes out of its mouth now and i think the ghastly shark got some better textures.
- Inflambia
  
  incinerator
Iris Nguyen

That’s a lot of mats but considering that they are not prohibitively expensive at all. Things like bloodstone dusts, dragonite, etc give players incentives to actually do every contents instead of farming gold in one spot of the world. Notice that all the mats do drop in WvW where events are usually fast-paced and less tiring than dragon events which will be revamped soon. With this update, hopefully more players who are interested in the best in slot weapons will come back to WvW.

Here is a clearer image of the dreamer footfall effect, enjoy!
- Valkyrie Ryu
  
  i’m torn, it looks awkward because it only has one hoof… we have 2 feet :C
  - Danny Jones
    
    We don’t walk with both feet at the same time though do we?
    - Valkyrie Ryu
      
      we dont walk in a straight line do we?
      - Ragna
        
        It isn’t exactly a straight line.
        
        Valkyrie Ryu
        
        it almost is. the proportion of the size of the hoof to the width between the supposed feet is totally off. that’s my point. if the hooves were smaller it would make sense. as it currently is, it does not.
        
        Jason
        
        are you really arguing the reality aspect of a make believe weapon that leaves rainbow hoof prints when you walk?
      - kneeze
        
        I wouldn’t say those hoofprints are in a straight line. It looks fine to me, including the foot-shaped interiors in the prints.
      - Danny Jones
        
        Not when I have had a skinful, no.

Had a go at the new Tribulation mode for SAB. It’s tough.
Paths are linear and if you fall off them, you fall through the floor and into an insta-death spike pit. Wood spikes around where you spawn at the start also are insta-deaths. They can be jumped easily whilst running but harder to tackle from a standing jump. I can post a few screenshots for the first bit if you want.
- Murth
  
  Is it me or do you only get 2 lives? And I just die I don’t fall through the floor.
  - Dae
    
    Yeah. You get 2 lives now every time you exit and re-enter through a party. You only get 5 if you use a coin.
    
    And falling through the floor is a trap. There’s a lot of those in Tribulation mode.
katreyn

I got about 56 empyreal fragments from 13 jumping puzzles. I did some hard ones (ie. Malchor’s Leap one with the chests) and Cursed Shore one and some easy ones in the starter zones and LA and it seemed entirely random how many you get in a chest. 2 or 7 or 9. Nothing to do with difficulty or level of the zone.

But I still thought coming away with 50 for some simple puzzles wasn’t so bad. Hopefully you get at least 9 guaranteed per dungeon run. :/

And got 16 dragonite ore from Shatterer. Not sure how it plays out with the smaller bosses but should be pretty decent.
- Alahel
  
  I got something like 5-6 Dragonite ores on the fire elemental, around the same for the shadow behemoth, 16 for the destroyer and 30 on Dwayna/Lyssa, so it varies depending on the level of the event
  - katreyn
    
    Yeah seems to vary a little bit except at temples which are a guaranteed 30. I got around 5-6 for FE too and 5 for SB, Shatterer after daily reset gave me 20, and got 15 from maw. Claw of Jormag was around 25~ I think. Overall, got a little over 100 for doing a boss run after daily reset.
    
    Sadly fragments still seem to be the rarest. Haven’t heard how many you get out of dungeon, wouldn’t be surprised if its around 30. I did learn parking alts that aren’t 80 at a jp will not net you any materials at all though. >.< Need to be 80 for them to drop from chest.

Hi Dulfy. I dont see an article for SAB world 2 so I’m going to post this here

some secrets I found in world 2

Only zone 1 for now. Will update when I find more

  Cool thanks for posting, I will check them out and give the credit when I make the guide 🙂
  - Larxene Rakushinu
    
    just a note. whenever you see Hillbillies. Kill them without destroying the machine.. Racoons will appear after and lead you to secret places.
    
    I missed a few place because I destroyed them

How many MB is this new patch?

Ty
- Dae
  
  5,800 files, iirc. I didn’t catch the amount. I don’t think it should be too much though.
Dagnis

Anyone know what the essence of luck are used for in artificing?
- Dan Bujoreanu
  
  You upgrade them. 2 with 50 points upgrade into one of 100, etc
  - Dagnis
    
    So no gain in magic find?
    - Ares Zax
      
      Nope. It’s just a way to reduce clicking when you have a lot to consume. 🙂
      - Mike Kelly
        
        Oh how I wish I knew that before consuming hundreds and hundreds of 10 point ones last night 🙂
Kodora

Any guide for crafting from 400 to 500 in the most efficient way? Thanks.
- Dagnis
  
  Work your way to 450 and just craft mats from then on out for your ascended items.
  - Dagnis
    
    oh, and salvage your exotics.
    - Kodora
      
      I meant, economic way. It’s quite expensive to 450.
- Murth
  
  http://gw2crafts.net/
  
  Don’t think there’s a non expensive way to get from 400-500, given that you need tons of ori ore and ecto’s. not even to mention ori’s price that currently keeps going up.
Dagnis

Hey dulfy, I was going through zone three, and almost right at the beginning i foudn one of the hard to find secret rooms with no rocks using a bomb. after you climb the face at the beginning you can follow these screens to find it. the second one is me standing in the same spot just looking to the right. hope this helps. http://imgur.com/a/zYJ4O

PS, the room just seems to be full of falling ice, and there doens’t seem to be a way to get up over a wall in it.
SSGroguey

Hello Dulfy, if you’re interested in information on “time gated” materials for 400-500 crafting, so far it looks like the items in Ectoplasm Refinement are the only things that go on cooldown. Which means Lumps of Mithrillium and Glob of Elder Spirit Spirit Residue can be crafted once a day (reset when dailies reset).

I have crafted at least one thing from the other sections (Bloodstone Bricks and Deldrimor Steel Ingots) without them going on cooldown. I assume the other items do not.
skull9871 .

should mention on w2-3 need 400 baubles for torch cant go past without it also a ranged weapon

SABcentrifuge

Does anyone
have a tip for getting into the gong tower in zone 2 of world 2 easily? The way
I found was from the bottom of the tower, get on the wooden beams underneath the
floor, walk to the rocks and jump up and a bit to the side to try get on the
rock. I made this jump a couple of times last night but then my hands started to
cramp up and get sweaty and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get the jump
right anymore, forcing me to log off frustrated in the end. Is this the only
way to get into the tower or am I overlooking an easier way?
- Haros
  
  There is a tree on the right from the checkpoint that leads you to the bottom level of the tower. You must have missed it.
  - SABcentrifuge
    
    Oh wow. Thnx! I think I’ve seen the tree you mean but I remember thinking it was too high or too far away to jump onto. I’ll surely give it a shot!
- Serkk
  
  If you just want to finish the zone then there is a Shortcut Eagle right after the second Checkpoint (the one after the first Octupus you have to feed). You can use the jump flower there to hit a cloud which is on the opposite side of the normal way. Then you use the Glove of Wisdom to push the block towards the tree and jump up and you reach the Shortcut Eagle. This Shortcut is different from World 1 Shortcut Worm which you just have to go through. Shortcut Eagle works so that there are tons of Owls attacking you and the Checkpoint you end up at depends on how long you stay on the Eagle. If you make it all the way you end up at the last checkpoint before boss (basicly you skip somewhere between 10 to 15 checkpoints, haven’t done it normally so can’t say for sure how many there are.

Any tips for the pressure plate construct in world 2 zone 3? i can’t figure out how to press all plates if the enemies deactivate them regularly..
- Apparitions
  
  did you figure it out?
  - Swidtter
    
    I timed it right. So they all need to be white and I stood by one plate and when the sheep hit the ones i had turned black I jumped on one of them and they all went white. Took me a good 30 minutes to count up. I might be able to post a pic later if people are still interested.

If you follow the Genie’s instructions at the end of World 3’s Zone 1, you’ll see a hidden cutscene in a secret Lab.

any guide to complete tribulation world 1 zone 2? thx for the guide for zone 1 btw. it helps a lot.
Havelock Vetinari

For those @ the Building with Traps and the Big Gong at the Top:
You can try to avoid the whole building by carefully jumping between the Trap and the housecorner at the right outside.
So you can jump over the Trap and push the block.
Be carefull, its only a little (!!!) gap to stand in.

Dulfy, I count 370 thermocatalytic reagents for the total. The hilt and blade cost 160, if I understand correctly (50 + 30 for each piece).
Luthan

Will you do full guides with pics again for World 2? I find it easier to collect all the baubles if there is a pic guide instead of video. For secret rooms and a quick walkthrough where you only need to complete in tribulation mode the video is okay. Really thanks for all the stuff you did back then for World 1. I’m playing also other games and I don’t think it is fun to spend hours in the Box and I’m only trying to get as many achievements as possible and your guides are helping a lot.
Dagnis

Boss chests in Tribulation mode drop King Toad coin and Green weapon?
- Dagnis
  
  No. each zone drops a unique green or yellow item that is account bound and daily. combine one from each zone and the 2g thing from moto in the forge to make a wep
  - Dagnis
    
    PS. you get the unique piece as a 100% chance from the end chest.

Hey could you staff/mods please update the guide for the secret living story plot/genie plot as soon as you figure out how it’s done? i want to do it 😀 (achievement name: Special instructions)
- henry
  
  http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/1lpqkm/spoiler_sab_secret_instructions/
- Dae
  
  It’s simple. You talk to the genie, wait a bit and he tells you everything. Then head to Rata Sum’s Research Waypoint and head around the corner to the bridge (your map should also have a Living World star indicating where it is). Then enter the Konami code: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A.
  The next part is pretty self explanatory.
  
  (Just for those who couldn’t be bothered scrolling down a Reddit thread.)
mirta

Dulfy, please make guides for achievements in World 2 normal mode. I can do the obvious ones (like for example the Tiptoe one), but when it comes to indefinitely count of something (achievements like find all baubles, kill all assassins, etc) I am really lost.

Hey Dulfy, here’s a 50 bauble chest (dig) I found in world 2-1. http://imgur.com/a/Rhlpk

Also I don’t know if it has been mentioned but the one of the flute songs is in the cabin that is right before the “frogger” style river in world 2-1. The cabin is reached by taking the first movable log to the water spurt. Follow the path and climb the mountain till you reach a spring. Use the spring/ flowers to go to the cabin. There is a secret room inside the cabin (floor) and just outside the cabin (grey wall near door) that can be opened with bombs. Inside the cabin is a log that teahces you the log song ( 1,2,3) that shows a moto face on secrets nearby

does anyone know if there is a new shop in world 1? I’ve gone trough it in tribulation mode 2 times and 1 is still missing for the achievement. The shop where you could get the candle for free doesn’t count!
Another problem would be the honeycomb in zone 3, I didn’t find a way to get there in many hours of search (cannon is blocked by a cloud).

  Both are bugged it seems. There doesn’t seem to be a way through Zone 3’s tribulation’s maze and I’ve been through every shop in world 1 and there’s only 10 marked in my achievements.

Here is a list of items in World 2 (None of these links are mine but someone else’s in the comments)

For the achievement:

Nice Scoop
– Several shops (torch chop in W2Z3 works great) (325 baubles)

750 wallet bag (W2Z3)
http://imgur.com/a/KgGnp A guide by Dagnis I found in comments (500 baubles)

flat hand power (W2Z2) (mandatory)
-You get as you do Zone 2 of world 2

torch (W2Z3) (mandatory)
-2nd shop in Z3, you’ll pass a cave before the ice wall that blocks checkpoint 1

Nun chucks (W2Z2)
-underneath the wooden path leading to the gong building (go left from that checkpoint and drop under the wooden pathway) (425 baubles?)

Whistle (W2Z3)
-first shop in Z3 (225 baubles?)

5th heart (finish world 2)

Moto’s Finger (elite) (W3Z3)
(here is a guide I found) http://imgur.com/a/ISnXj
Original post I found https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/livingworld/sab-bts/Spoiler-Obtaining-the-new-SAB-Elite

Upgraded potions (300 baubles?)
-several shops sell it

Not to sure the 10th (i have 10/10 but not sure which one is missing)

Flute songs:

Log song (shows secrets) (W2Z1)
-follow dulfy’s hidden room guide to find the shop with it

Gatekeeper song ( opens gates) (W2Z2)
-Hidden room when you bomb the ground before the racoon kingpin

Ice Song (Breaks ice) (W2Z3)
-Found in the room with the flat ice and spikes. Before the little ledge halfway in the room on the right hand side is a door you need to open with the gate keeper’s song. Follow the open path to a room with 15 banana guys. kill them all to unlock the room with the song.

If anyone has anything to add to the list that would be great
- Jano Ris
  
  w2z3 has a 3rd song : http://imgur.com/a/YuELG
  dunno about the last one that would be missing.
  - Guest
    
    The fifth heart that you get after killing the Storm Wizard
- Dae
  
  Apparently the potion upgrade (encountered in a hidden shop in a wall in w2z2) that heals for 2 hearts and costs 300 baubles also counts for it.
- Bofrano
  
  What about the “Nice Scoop”? I.e. the upgraded shovel? Can’t remember where you buy it the first time but you can buy it from W2Z3, where you get the torch.
- Sephil
  
  the 5th heart of life is an upgrade.
  I don’t think the songs are an upgrade though, juste got the gatekeeper’s so far and still at 8/10
  - Enok Dencker
    
    Where or how do we get this 5th hearth upgrade?
    And do we have to wait for world 3 to get the 6th hearth?
    - Jano Ris
      
      you get the 5th heart from beating the storm wizard boss of w2z3
- Suth
  
  The Ice Song didn’t increase Major In Enhancement for me. I’m not sure if one of the other songs did.

Just wanted to give you a big fat THANK YOU for the videoes. They allow me to save a lot of time through just following a guide. I don’t enjoy Tribulation mode much, but I do every achievements q: Also allows me to send a message to Anet that I don’t want to buy their damn infinite coin. Only ~ 20 continue coins used so far. Thanks Dulfy 🙂

For World 2 Zone 2, near the end with the teleportation pads, there’s a bit of a shortcut if you take certain teleporters in order. The order is given by a Mysterious Stranger in a hidden area on the ground where you can fight the Boss Raccoon on this level. He says something like “I know the path Left, Right, Right, Forward, Forward.” Taking the teleporters in this order lets you bypass the poles and fish right after the teleporters. Also, after you talk to the stranger some numbers show up on the ground but I haven’t figured out what they’re for… I think they were 33231 or something…
- Fox
  
  The numbers are for playing on the flute.
- Suth
  
  Also, the whole pagoda with the indiana jones reference gong sequence can be skipped by jumping on the tree in front of the pagoda, and climbing on the top of it via the clouds. From up there, one can jump to the nearby hill and avoid the annoying gong / traps.
- Adorabelle
  
  Once you play the numbers on the flute, the wall to your right opens and there is a 50 bauble there

world 2 zone 2 – a little while after the ‘glove boss’ there is a door blocked by a ‘Fist-shape with a downwards arrow’. Tried all sorts of things to open it.
Does anyone know how to open it?

Here are some screen shots, First one being the door and 2nd is what i can see behind it.

    The glove doesn’t work. I guess it’s only accessible after World 3 (where you can possibly find a glove update).
    Anyway, I got 10/10 upgrades without the one behind this door, so it’s not necessary to get atm.
    - Jano Ris
      
      what upgrades do you have? i am stuck at 9/10.
      I have the nunchucks, the torch, the shovel, the 750 baubble wallet, the whistle with all 3 songs, the better health potion, the 5th heart upgrade and the glove (dunno why that is 9 since i only count 8 there)
      - Thanathos
        
        You’re missing “Moto’s Finger”, the elite skill upgrade.
        Here’s an explanation of the location:

        How do you play the flute fast enough when I play the first note it takes wayy to long.
        
        Slur
        
        There’s 3 clouds for you to move around while you play the song. Before you jump to that group of clouds, press 3 while you’re on the last cloud before the group, this is because there’s a cast time associated with the first note. Then play 3 2 3 3 1 while you jump between the other two clouds. You’ll probably die as it opens, but you can make your way back to the newly opened cave.
        
        Darkdrag0ns
        
        I figured out why it wasn’t working didn’t know you needed to find the song somewhere.

  Thanks to Cyannii for finding it 🙂

can I play Tribulation as group?
- Dulfy
  
  Yes but everyone need to make it to the checkpoint for it to activate so it is a bit painful in group.
  - Guest
    
    So, suicide is the best way?
    - Speedyh1
      
      You won’t get a new checkpoint, unless everyone is there.
      
      As a result it’s best to find the way in groups, since you’ll need less lifes to find the traps & you’ll have some fun, watching them die.
      
      Farming on the other hand is better solo.

Ok I’ve been working on the tribulation zone 1, fallowed the video walk through to a “T” all the way up past the first check point, hopped over the trees along the wall to the 2 monkeys above the shop. I jump down just like in the video but fall right through the floor into lava every time. I’ve tried to inch forward, checking edges of the floor but still cant find a way to progress at all. I’m stuck there, and since the game isn’t working correctly it seems compared to how it operated with the video there’s gotta be some kinda bug. If I try to walk along the left wall the missile nails me, if I try to go right I’m impaled by spikes… I literally cant get across to the second Check Point at all.
- Thanathos
  
  You have to make a really big jump (try to jump in the direction of the snake). If your jump is too short you’ll die. After that, jump right (look at the ground, where it’s a bit higher, you can stand savely).
  You can slowly take 1-2 steps between the two jumps, just don’t go too far or you’ll die, too.

FYI there is a bug right now which is preventing people from getting credit for doing W1Z3 in tribulation mode. (the achievement included) . I recommend waiting till they fix it (no fix was released tonight)
- Guest
  
  A few guildies ran through it with me before (6 hours ago) and it was fine.
- lala
  
  Wait for the timer to finish once its done. I did mine and waited for the time and
  Once the timer was over I got the achievement
- prowler
  
  I ran through the timer myself (as did some other people of gw forums). Sometimes you do not get credit
- Ghisteslohm
  
  had the same problem. You have to wait and get teleported to the bonus area. If you leave before the timer is finished you will not get the achievement.

A big ..I.. to ANet! Might as well make and sell this game separately. Honestly, no point for being in GW2. What’s the connection of this and the impending doom brought about by the dragons?

    Dude, you do not understand how butthurt people are because now there’s two whole weeks during which no new content is added for their specific needs/wants.

        As for my comment to Raziel, I just abhor his profile pic. That’s all. What a poser. Just keep those comments coming.
- Belle
  
  If you do one of the achievements you find out it has something to do with Moto being kicked out of some group of asurans, so it will connect with some kind of asuran invention sort of like Fractals of the mists.

Can you do a tribulation zone 2 times on a day or is there also a timer like in the normal zones?
- Magnusito
  
  Once a day.

Don’t know if this has been posted yet.

I’m not sure if this has already been posted about, but I found a hidden room( i’m pretty sure it is a secret room, if not then just let me know.) in SAB World 2 Zone 3.

I cant join World 2 tribulation mode, i already did the Tribulation world1 and i got my green weapon, also i already did the world 2 normal mode ( without achies)
- Dae
  
  Have you been through them all on normal mode? That’s probably why it won’t let you join Trib.
  - Jumpy
    
    Yes i completed whole world in normal mode (1 and 2 ) anyway i did again the world1z3 in tribul..and i got the achie, now i can join wha i was looking for..thank anyway
Guest

I got King Zone T-3 coin, but still 2/3 Glutton for Punishment achievement! something wrong?
- Nelien
  
  When you finished the third zone in TM and killed King Toad you need to WAIT for the timer to tick out. It will port you to the bonus area (where you have to smash the cart), THEN you will get the achievement. If you port out of the zone before the timer runs out you’ll have the T-3 coin but not the achievement.
  - bob
    
    Not 100% true. It is also bugged. Sometimes you wait for the timer and do the bonus round but get no credit. Has something to do with how close you are to the final chest when the timer runs out

Got all the hidden rooms of w2z3 and made a list:
http://imgur.com/a/fMjGs

Note: I don’t think i remembered all of them + I’m pretty sure some of those rooms on the list don’t count for the achievement and are just to either get baubles or for tiny ‘shortcuts’. Either way they’re worth visiting and probably will be somewhat usefull for dulfy’s guide.
- Nelien
  
  Nice job! Thanks for that! I’m still going to wait for the baubles guide so that I can do them at the same time. Hopefully dulfy’s done with that soon :).
- Dulfy
  
  Got a guide up for secrets room anyways this morning, not sure if you have seen it. Alot of the hidden rooms in w2z3 don’t count so I only listed the ones that counted for the achievements. Also the baubles one is a bit harder than previous zones and so far no one have it as far as I know
Adorabelle

Is the TM achievement tough customer bugged for world 1 zone 3? I went to all 6 shops and I didn’t get the achievement. I also went to the hidden shop that i needed to bomb the floor
- BeastEye
  
  Are you sure you went to all 6 shops? I believe the room there you get Moto’s Breath also counts.
  If you did, then maybe you went to the W1Z2 shop before they fixed the bug that made it not count. Check the patch notes/google to find out exactly which shop it was.
  - Adorabelle
    
    I just finished TM W1Z3 a few hours ago so this would be after the patch. I got all the upgrades, including Moto’s Breath. I went through all the shops in world 1 zone 1 and 2 ( I counted and used a guide just in case). Zone 3 I kept count and I got nada
    - Arka
      
      Do it with a charr that has never done it and it should unlock the achvmt (even if it dont pop on the screen)
- Nhalx
  
  If you are missing the bugged shop. It’s the shop near the shopkeeper that drinks from the water in W1,Z2 .
  Exactly where you get the candle.
- Adorabelle
  
  Thanks everyone, I’m going to try the candle shop again

Hi Dulfy, you should link to your dig spots guide from here, also.
Sballato

Did someone found the third honeycomb? I found one into world 1 zone 2 almost at half way nad one into zone 3 almost at the start before first normal checkpoint..where the last one is?Thnx for help 🙂
- Cyrael Pelingar XI
  
  I sent Dulfy some screenshots showing how to get the honeycomb in W1 Z3 tribulation. Message me in game if you need pointers @ Cyrael Pelingar XI.
Sballato

Hello everyone,
I found a honeycomb into zone 2 almost at half way and another one into zone 3 before the first normal checkpoint. can someone tells me where is the last one plz? 🙂
- Thanathos
  
  The last one is in W1-1, after the third normal checkpoint. You can see some dog bees. If you follow them, you reach a maze at which end is a cloud checkpoint. The dog bee queen and the honeycomb is right after that (in the corner behind the little hill with the spikes).

Dulfy when you are ready to post guide SAB World2 Zone3 Tribulation Mode ?
Guest

Dulfy, someone has finished “Master of Baubles” achievement. The first poster of this page: https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/livingworld/sab-bts/Bauble-Checklist-for-W2-Z3-INCOMPLETE/page/2
- Dulfy
  
  Actually no, if you read the replies below it he failed to provide a proof and people who did the same thing did not get it.
  - Baldurian
    
    I am still working on it, I found at least one more bauble then this guide. Going to give it a try now 🙂
  - prowler
    
    Where?
    - Baldurian
      
      There is another blue bauble in the ice cave at the end with the bananas. But even with that one added completing it on normal mode isnt sufficient.
Airwolf

Also something to think about is that you can “cheat” in Tribulation mode W2 Z3 by going to the graphics options and set the full screen gamma to 3.5 instead of 1.0.

Hi Dulfy,

Probably you’ve found this long ago, but thought I’d leave it here.

Infantile Mode no longer has diggable bauble chests. If you want to bauble farm, you have to do it normal mode, or content yourself with ambient baubles.

Also, the diggable bauble chest rewards in World 1 have been reduced across the board. Most that were 20 baubles are now 5; most that were 50 baubles are now 20.

It’d be useful to a lot of players – myself included – if you got a dig site guide up. Even if it’s incomplete, it’ll help, and people will likely post any other dig sites they find that aren’t in your guide.
RhapsodyBD

Hi Dulfy, and everyone in the webs,
Any of you being able to complete Tiptoe achievement, I tried a few times, the first pack easy to pass by, the second group grabbed the inv. buff, no sweat, third won’t even go near, defeat boss but no chieve triger
- Duncandonut
  
  I tried in normal mode over and over, would not complete. Tried it in infantile mode and it compelted first time. Just remember to use the barrel stealth buff near the Hillbillies towards the end.
  - Adorabelle
    
    Yea, the stealth buff helped me complete the achievement, just make sure not to die until you reach the next checkpoint, because most of the time you aggro the hillbillies when you respawn. Infantile mode is the way to go.
- Chayse Bones
  
  you can go around them by jumping on the shop nearby and running on the side of the cliff.

Where can I find a video (not pictures), of the path to the 3 songs for Wooden Whistle?
Guest

I play as a ranged thief (pistols and shortbow). Many times I have tried jumps made by other characters in videos (and im not new to jump puzzles). To me it seems my char is a tiny bit slower than most other chars I see.

Anyone know the reason for this speed difference?

Has there been a speed nerf, or is there a way to change speed on characters?

- Chan Thunderpants
  
  -I’ve noticed that even in sab where there is no ‘in combat’ speed modification that when you get hit you run/jump slower for a split second.
  -There’s also a distance difference between jumping then moving and moving and jumping.
  -Try standing on the edge of the block you’re jumping from.
  -You can always dodge jump if needed.
- Calu
  
  I believe jumping speed is the same for all races but you might get confused since jumping animation on 2 paws looks slower than the one on 4 paws. It also fools you with the distance of the jump and the position you land on when on 4 paws (which in fact is under your back paws / legs not the character’s center of gravity). I personally hate doing any jumping puzzles with charr since it’s so unreliable.
helpfull sab lover

hey dulfy, i dunno if this baubles has been listed yet but i found a yellow bauble after the last chest of world 2 zone 3 (the chest before the yeti boss) you can from the top of the chest to a corner and then follow the jumping path there is a platform with bananas . you need to do some dodgeroll jumps to get to the corner at the end of this platform ( its a bit hidden). i hope i could help
Izo Yukimura

Is there an ETA for Master of baubles world 2 ? I’ve done all the achievements without a guide but really don’t want to tackle this one alone if i can help it.
- Dulfy
  
  There isn’t an ETA because the achievement is still considered bugged/unresolved atm so I am not going to waste time putting up a guide when it doesn’t have all the baubles. When this situation changes I will put up a guide.
  - Izo Yukimura
    
    Oh i see, that sucks. Thanks for getting back to me though 🙂 saves me wasting time attempting it till its fixed.
Dan

Dulfy thats alot of work, you must be very tired at this point.
Thanks alot, great work as usual
Marc Dracokiller

I think I’ll give the Master of Baubles achievement a try.
- Marc Dracokiller
  
  And, I failed but i learned how to get a couple more baubles than on Baldurian’s list. So it wasn’t a total failure.
  - Baldurian
    
    Impressive, If you would add those to my list, someone else might be able to add the last few baubles we both missed. It’s about time we are able to complete this achievement, isn’t it 🙂
    - Marc Dracokiller
      
      Sorry for late reply but I’m not good with describing things, I find it easier to take pictures. I’m aware the guide is up by now I just thought i should inform you on that though.
Funky

OK not sure if u know about the room behind the water fall didn’t see it any were in the website just giving u a heads up
- Marc Dracokiller
  
  3 secret rooms were already found in April, however I’m pretty sure they don’t count towards the Associate of Secrets World 2 achievement. This secret area is in the Associate if Baubles Guide.

is SAB back to school a 1 month thingy or will it end at 17 september?appreciate if anyone could answer

  I’m pretty much sure it’s until September 30. You can look at the reference here:

Once again I’d like to thank you for the amazing guides you provided, it helped a lot !
Drake

Hello dulfy! I remember hearing you ask how to avoid taking damage in the fight against the tiny storm wizard at half HP! this is how it goes: whenever he shoots his lightnings at you (and you want to push them away with your glove) go at MAX distance before pushing them back to him. If you hit him, he will run straight to you but as he has to run so long he can only chase you TWICE (ofc you have to dodge his first attack and run straight to the other side)! you can dodge both attacks and if u did everything correctly he cancels his third attack right before hitting you.
Lighthammer

Master of baubles world 2 is now possible.
- zantarel
  
  Is there a guide anywhere?
  - Dulfy
    
    Yes, written guide should be up now and video guide should be up in <2 hrs when it finishes uploading.
    - zantarel
      
      You’re amazing 🙂 thanks
    - zantarel
      
      Can’t see it on the list above… Still says does not include it because bugged. Tried searching for it and it’s not coming up there either ^^
      - Dulfy
        
        It is still uploading, should be done in 5 minutes
