Talk:Tangle Root

The center of the jungle isn't actually inaccessible. If coming in from Dry Top, it's true that you do have to get to the Maguuma Stade entrance before you can go anywhere else in the zone, but from there there are two ways to get to the Henge - one which begins by following the path east from the Stade entrance, and one which descends into a valley NORTH of the Stade entrance, winds through the northwest corner of the zone, and ends up approaching the Henge entrance from the west.



This is from memory so it might be a little off. At point A, you can descend into the riverbed/valley area and reach all of that; this also provides an alternate route to Old Joness (at point B). --EccentricFlower 09:52, 2 June 2006 (CDT)

Hard Mode : 198 monsters if you just don't follow the usual route to Old Joness (I mean the path you follow from Denravi, when doing the quest). That way, you avoid lots of spawns. The fastest path i found was starting from Denravi, then clear the northern area, go down to the Stade then clear the western area. Once down, head east but don't go further the first bridge, then come back to point 'A' on EccentricFlower's map. Go down the river and clear the way to Old Joness. Head north, to the collector and the material crafter. The last few trolls are westway. I found it quite easy to do with a MM, despite the scarabs using Verata's Gaze. If you can micromanage your MM, just equip him with Verata's Gaze too, and focus on the scarabs first. -- Duncan Idaho, 06:34, 7 May 2007 (GMT)

Fully vanquished at 210 foes ... adding a note -- Aozora 16:02, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Defend Denravi
Does having the quest Defend Denravi lower the max number of foes in hard mode? I know it did in Mineral Springs as well as in North Kryta Province. It actually makes the area easier in hard mode because the Titans don't get that much more powerful in hard mode and besides lowering the max number of enemies, they also tend to kill the other monsters. If no one noes I will test it out tonight and update the vanquisher page accordingly.--Old Man Of Ascalon   (T/C) 22:25, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Leafy Houses
I saw what appears to be some green, leafy houses sitting on a branch in the jungle, but I can't find any lore explaining why they are there. The closest thing I can get to (since the Mursaat supposedly are from the area) is that these are Saul's. Thoughts? --24.74.254.215 22:29, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Don't have one just yet, give me about 20 minutes and I'll post one. --24.74.254.215 22:31, 21 January 2008 (UTC)




 * ^Looking at the image of the house with the side facing towards the point of view... does that look like Grenth maybe? It's extremely similar if not a picture of him... What could that mean? lol What is with these houses?!--Powersurge360 04:17, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * That is not any way similar looking to Grenth. It is just vines and roots placed in an ornately fashion. Why speculate about the house(s)? Has the thought of people living there in Tangle root, escaped your minds? Not everything has some special lore to go with it. [[image:anemos1.png]] Anemos 00:30, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * It certainly looks likes a person in a lordly fashion who looks vaguely like grenth's avatar or a bearded priest of some sort if you're not short-sighted. As for people, there's always crazy old hermits or isolated people in these places. Flechette 00:58, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah there are isolated hermits and junk, but why only put a random house here and not anywhere else. There's not much in the game that's just there to be there. Even the bleached bones in the desert usually have a brief journal entry or something. I thought maybe it was Joness's house or something, but he didn't seem to be hiding, as his son was killed by the Mantle. I don't know, maybe the developers put it in here just to make me ask why, lol. --Powersurge360 01:14, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd always just assumed they were the leftover houses from the druids that used to live in the jungle, the ones mentioned in Henge of Denravi's Description.-Ezekiel 01:21, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * that's what I said, which is clearly connected to my comment "crazy old hermits". Flechette 01:26, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
