Uru-Lower Gira : Yeesha page on ledge near puffers - 12/03/03 02:13 AM
I thought I'd try to contribute.
If there is an easier way to do this part, please share!
There is a notebook over the tunnel near the puffer plants. It is obvious. But there is a Yeesha page on a ledge to the right if one stands on top of the tunnel entrance with notebook to back. It is on the right ledge from this vantage point.
Jumping from that spot was too difficult. I walked down to my right and went much lower and nearer the larger boulder.
These are my notes to help others: I found that if I walked very close to the big boulder near the more "shallow" end of the ridge over the tunnel, and lined up the head of the avatar until there appeared only an upside down triangle (reflection made from light hitting boulder) on the boulder then walked about two or three steps and lept, it was easier. If I aimed and there were more reflections than just an upside down triangle, it was too difficult. I figured this feature was there for a purpose and I was right. At least it worked for me!
I was much closer to the boulder than the Prima Guide infers.
Also, one is able to do a "partial jump" with just a touch of the key board if one lands part way up the boulder and one can turn right and left a bit if partially up or without feet really touching the boulder!
Then I aligned the big puffer plant a bit to the right of my vision. I took a step or two back on top of the boulder, but this time I ran and lept rather than walked. Then I touched the page on this ledge!
Now I worry there are more Yeesha pages that I haven't found. I wonder how many we should have?
I hope I have found all of them.
I also wonder, what other features we have missed like the upside down triangle for aiming correctly in certain sections of Uru!
I already finished the dreaded basket/firefly section which took several days.
