Can anybody tell me what the hell this statue is? It is in Crystal overlook near the teleportation to the Tyria Crystal Desert

Riplox · Nov 20, 2006, 05:04 AM // 05:04

That looks like the really big statue in the Arid Desert. And if it is, then it's confirmed then that Elona is just south of Tyria.

Knightsaber Sith · Nov 20, 2006, 05:06 AM // 05:06

It's a big statue of a female warr in knight's armor. When you get close it's actually in pieces on the ground which is kinda wierd...

*Possibly a spoiler, this whole thread*

That's the same statue that can be seen in the Arid Sea, in Tyria. It's only a ghostly visage though, as when you approach it you realise it has toppled over and been destroyed.

Its female knights armor.

That is where you go after you have done the forgotten ones to do the secoundary part of the quest The forgetten wisdom and yes it is in the Arid Sea.That statue is laying down when you get there are to make bridge for you.

ySt · Nov 20, 2006, 01:22 PM // 13:22

yeah ... first 15 attribute point for Tyria born character, Canthan and Elona attribute quests are so easy as compare to this one.

shawatsies · Nov 20, 2006, 01:43 PM // 13:43

yea if you are a tyrian born character you can talk 2 a that forgotten guy there and he will teleport u to the arid sea, and u can teleport back.

Ole Man Bourbon · Nov 20, 2006, 05:11 PM // 17:11

Ghostly visage, or collapsed statue? I guess the timing would be kinda lucky to see a collossus randomly choose to fall right before your eyes.

thelegendozelda · Nov 20, 2006, 07:18 PM // 19:18

actually it falls as you approach it, just keep an eye on it as you walk toward it and you can see it fall

Oooh, I always thought it crumbled before your eyes and I was missing the animation

That would have been cool

Elonian lore mentions the Crystal Desert to the north of Elona.

Nadasee · Nov 21, 2006, 03:29 PM // 15:29

***Spoiler Warning***
----------------------

I wisited that place yesterday and i find it really amazing that the Crystal Desert is so close to the Elona border, closer then i first thought.
Just a mountain or sand dunes that devide them. That's really cool!

And it's indeed the Colossus that collapses in the Crystal Desert (Arid Sea) as you aproch it. (Atlest it looks like it does untill you see it shatterd on the ground, like most of the statues there) I agree on the Ghostly Visage theory, a mere print in the old days that it's still standing.

Here's some pic i took, from Elona and the Crystal Desert in Tyria.
Even the lineup of it is perfect (the back showing to Elona, aswell for the teleporter is centerd) you arrive slightly behind it (a rock wall) and to the left of it in Tyria.

Travisimoo · Nov 21, 2006, 11:45 PM // 23:45

There's a portal in the c.d that warps to Elona if you have Nightfall

Vahn Roi · Nov 22, 2006, 12:06 AM // 00:06

A friend showed me this a few days ago.

Note: This SS was taken in Elona, not the Crystal Desert
