P.S: How on Earth can you steal someone's assistance?
You can borrow a tissue or a piece of a paper. :blah:

If you played the original Shoelace version of this room... well, the solution's about the same.
But if not, think of an answer to this: why would you want to push it into that hole?
Odd that pkmnfrk's solution worked for him. (But I'm glad, yes. :) ) I just slashed all the bushes on the screen, and pushed the right statue into the lower left hole, then crossed over that now-filled hole to press the button under the bush in the very lower left corner.
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
The solution I posed was the solution to another puzzle, in the Moon Tower. I solved the eyeball statue room puzzle by hitting the switch.
However, I then died later on in the dungeon, and lost motivation to re-do everything all over again. Having a single save-spot in the entire game sucks.
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
Well the quest will always be unpassworded, so if you get frustrated, (And it is possible, I suppose.) the quest can be set to not use the Save feature. Or you can just put down more save combos. It's combo 125.
... ... No really, _L_, ... where is the Miniboss, please? Is it the one on Map 9 Screen 22?
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
It's at 9:54... but, as I said, you will only encounter it if you enter that screen from the north, which is the normal gameplay sequence.
That screen (9:54) is the only path to the far side of 9:64 without directly launching oneself across the broken bridge there. Thus, if you enter 9:54 from the south, then the game realises that you've broken sequence, and removes the scripted encounter.
Incidentally, I will certainly be adding several more save points to this and other areas, by popular demand.
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
I, um, doubt you've done everything in the eyeball room. Like, looked underneath every bush?
...Incidentally, apart from the save points, anybody have any specific feedback about this dungeon? Was the red tree puzzle easy to solve? Did that robed miniboss stump you, even with Hintia's hint? Think the 'backstory' of the Forest Abbey was a bit thinly spread? Were all three of the secret rooms too easy to find? Wondering what that mysterious stairway in the library was all about? Did the chaser traps move too slowly? (...maybe not the last one.)
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
I am wondering about the staircase, since I found my way to it, went down it, and then died in a gruesome, horrible death. Which made me lose a lot of progress :(
Overall, it's a very good dungeon. It has a real OoT Forest Temple feel, being partly inside, and partly outside.

Wait, _L_, what if you use the Switch Hook to get over there? It's very possible to do that, and switch places with a Moblin on 9:44. Then you just move through the north and find no boss! When you suddenly destroy the Tendrils, and you get the key, you find "Crimsrobe" running away, not ever seeing him before! So, what if you blocked off the north and east sides of the rooms, then on the north is a switch you can use to lower the roots on both sides?
Or you could just remove the moblins, but where's the fun in that?
Re: Let's explore the Forest Abbey!
I suggest you go looking for something fragile.

Well, that's a bug, I'm afraid! But using a secret technique to cross the broken bridge is quite permissible.

The answer is... it's a shortcut between two dungeons! But you need the Slightly Longer Hookshot to make proper use of it.
