Why this objective confuses players

In one supplied demo playthrough, the objective read “Talk to Bobster at the radio tower on Norleaf.” The player could see the general destination but repeatedly hit dead ends, tried slopes that were not climbable and briefly suspected a glitch. The breakthrough was noticing climbable vines and using double-jump traversal to gain height.

Route logic from the video

  1. Pin the Bobster/radio-tower objective and open the map.
  2. Use the marker to establish direction, not a straight-line path.
  3. Look for vines and intended vertical traversal rather than trying every steep slope.
  4. Use the double jump where the route requires extra height.
  5. Once you reach the tower/NPC, read the material request before leaving to farm.

Version warning

The supplied footage is demo-era and uses the place name Norleaf. Current official store copy prominently names Tangle Bloom, Gleam Reef and Boulderia, while retail achievement data still references Norleaf for an ancient-inscription objective. Because naming/route presentation may differ by build, this page treats the exact demo route as video-tested, not universally guaranteed.

Radio tower repair itself remains a strong retail mechanic: current tips report one broken tower per island, with Bobster providing the repair requirement and the completed tower unlocking autopilot.

Player Q&A

How does fast travel work?

Repair an island radio tower to unlock autopilot/fast travel for that island.

Who helps with radio towers?

Retail tips identify Bobster as the NPC who provides the tower repair requirement.

Should I repair radio towers early?

Usually yes: they reduce repeat travel during material and quest backtracking, and repairing all towers is a completion goal.

Does this guide invent missing recipe numbers?

No. Unverified quantities, drop rates, respawn timers and locations stay omitted or explicitly marked as needing verification.
