DS: Elemental cocoons?

[Guest]

Has anyone actually managed to figure out without
using the interNet(tm) what damn rocks those pagans
meant I should shoot with moss arrows?

I wasted like an hour wandering around and scoping
at the walls, but didn't notice anything pagan-like
"elemental cocoons" like they said in the paper.
Then I had enough and used Google, found a page
with picture of "elemental cocoon" and damnit indeed!
I would have never guessed...

I figured out what the cornerstones were easily, and I
had even wondered about them before hearing that I was
supposed to shoot them. The cocoons were indeed a bit
confusing; but mostly irrelevant since it was much easier
to shoot the cornerstones instead.

It was the other way around for me. I figured the cocoons easily, they
stuck out like a sore tooth in my eyes. But the corner stones threw me
completely. It said "green" on the note, so I thought it was the green
lights at the entrance of the pagan areas. Didn't figure out they didn't
mean it literally.... Even after having seen a picture of one I still
couldn't find them 😛

Goes to show people think differently, and since it's only neccesary to
figure out one of them to keep friendly with the pagans it might have been
designed like that on purpose. Who knows
