How on earth is anyone expected to even see these connectors that cling to walls and are nothing but 3 pixels on your screen. It's hard to find them even when you know where they are supposed to be.
This is my one and only criticism of this game. It’s fantastic, but a few of the side puzzle solutions are virtually impossible to see. No way i would have ever seen this. Still a great game though lol
I spent an hour not knowing what color to even do since it has no thingy ma jig on the box! Least you used common sense that it must be green again. I was thinking the whole time "is this going to use the gravity things or what?" I couldn't see any of the connectors in this world like I could in the others either. This one was a tad unfair.
@@JamieNotLamie There is a thingymajig on the box but it's on the side of the box instead. I did the same at first, assuming it might be some kind of gravity thing. Spent ages going around all the zones trying to find a green laser and trying to see if I could 'unlock' any hidden green laser with gravity anywhere. Gave up and found this video and learned that I should have been wall climbing instead. :(
@@Spanky2k lol sometimes we just gotta learn when to accept defeat. But hey it feels good when you do figure it out! I found both drillable walls in the open world by myself and figured those out!
Yeah, this is my least favorite type of trickiness. Especially when all the other Athena solutions until now have been finding ways to direct lasers out of and through the established puzzles.
I like the actual puzzle chambers a lot but I don’t waste my time with the star puzzles - more of a 1px scavenger hunt than actually solving a puzzle. Which is why I thank you for these videos lol
I hate this obscure RGB converter honestly. Similar situation was in S1 map. I found the green laser in the wall but could not figure out that there was a pixel of some connector at the top of a mountain that I couldn't see even when I knew where it was thanks to a guide. Every previous puzzle I solved on my own except for S1 and S2 Pandora. Sucks that they are making these so hidden that you spend more time looking for an obscure item than you spend solving 10 puzzles on the map.
All of the pandora puzzles are a total chore. No puzzle chops, just "look for the doohickey and then aimlessly run around trying to remember all the available resources." Better than the various awful stars from the first game, but still the only part of the entire game where I don't think they had a plan for what they were trying to achieve. I didn't even bother trying to solve this one. Just came immediately here for a video because I have better things to do with my time (like the rest of the game, which is excellent).
@@mikeanthony773 I like what they are, this puzzle outside the puzzle areas, but they need to make the "puzzle pieces" more obvious. I don't mind remembering what in the puzzle areaas are, that's the fun part trying to combine them. But trying to find some object that's just a few pixels on my 1080p screen without a hint like in S1 is just disappointing. They could have been better if these pieces had more clues, like the connector in S1 being on an eye-catching structure, or already being connected with something so you see the lines, as that worked for other Pandoa puzzles too.
Did not occur to me you could obtain red and blue from a single stream. I put the RGB up high on the outcrop where the prometheus spark is, then connected it to red and blue power from puzzles 3 and 2 and to Pandora from behind (you can connect it from any angle, not just the front of the box, which I'm pretty sure is a bug). Skipped the inverter and the tunnel entirely.
So i did first part as intended, got my rgb converter, BUT, i had no idea you can make a tunnel to the top platform to move inverter. SO what i did? I took out of bounds a connector from Puzzle no. 3 , where you doing tunnels on top corners of map, And i jumped off from map with connector.
Ah so the RBG converter was behind the puzzle. I got confused because a little ways away from the Pandora shrine there is another anti-grav plate (not the same that leads to to inverter) up on the canyon wall. I thought the converter must be up there and was trying desperately to get the gravity projector to connect with it.
@@JamieNotLamie nah, the torch light chase never takes you there, it uses some plating further to the east that you can get to from the ground. Unless it's something after you unlock golden gates(then don't tell me)
Oh damn, I'm so dumb. I found all the parts, but I mixed green before the fixed transponders in the cave and was stumped by the fact that there is an inverter there in the pink field. Somehow it didn't click with me what needs to be done (I never tried to bring red or blue in the area, otherwise I would have figured it out, I guess) and I kept thinking I need to bring another color from somewhere else and I kept looking for it (I thought that's what the second point where you could put an antigrav beam is for; why is it there, BTW?). In the end I gave up and stole a transponder from puzzle 4 and got the star that way.
@sirr0zha - the statue requires green. The only way you can make green is with a converter. There is no other converters in the map besides the one in the canyon shown in the video. So don’t know how you were able to make green without it like you’re saying in your comment
@@cooltron I took the converter to the area before the statue and mixed green by taking two lasers from two separate puzzles, then routed it through the cave.

Oh so its just an extremely obscure rgb converter hidden on top of a hill. Awesome. Spent an hour trying to figure out how to get a green lazer.

Many of these star puzzles are really really dumb because it's impossible to see shit

I bought a 2K monitor and I still can't do those pixel hunts

you can also use the red light from puzzle 3 room instead of the blue light from room 2 shown in this video
thanks. this one was too much for me
u are genius , wow
