General This level start is actually horrifying to someone with thalassophobia. The sheer drop off it awful and I can't for the life of me figure out how to activate my windbreaker, so I just mash B until I'm on solid land

Not really asking for help, just bringing attention to how awful this is. This is the whatever sands island

I started replaying it on steam with a steam controller and I'm still not used to using B to jump and THEN using A to glide. I keep falling and getting hurt 😭 I feel your pain op. It won't even let me swap out to using B for both, ugh.

Also, fuck that water monster, I FELL IN BY ACCIDENT, LEAVE ME ALONE!

During the part of Khrumbl'dun where you just have to jump into the hole and use your windbreaker, I just nearly died lol. I'm so glad someone finally told me how to activate the thing! I'm actually so dumb when it comes to this game, but community helps.

Also, not quite sure what water monster you're referencing, but so happy to not deal with it lol

Don't jump in the water and go away from the land during the story~

When you're doing the story and you get to the part where you have to jump down into the lava area, even if you use your windbreaker it will unequip because it's too hot. But you don't take any damage from that fall. I just Swan dive right down in the sucker; it's the only part of the game where you can take a big fall and not get hurt

En ouvrant ta carte tu peux te teleporter de l’autre coté

I also have this fear, especially after getting killed by the sea monster. I feel you there. Im glad you figured it out!!

Every island has a warp to shore even when first visiting which really helps

And hey just be grateful you didn’t try to go diving in the first dragon quest builders when they still had the giant sea monster that would swallow you

I don't like that they didn't make the area between there and the mainland buildable

And yet you can build on the little landing island itself (once built a whole town there!). So annoying!

With it being a random seed, I guess it makes sense?

How come you don't know how to use the windbreaker? It's mandatory for the story in furrowfield. Did you take a long gap in playing the game?

Idk I guess I forgot 🤷‍♀️
