Sky Islands is a challenging region made up of decayed and broken mechanical structures high above the ground. The region is optional but is commonly visited in the lategame when playing as Monk head.png Monk and Survivor head.png Survivor. It is the starting region of DLC icon.pngSaint head.png Saint.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Sky Islands is a largely aerial region, with open-air rooms and wide gaps to cross. Most rooms in this region have deathpits, making falling whilst platforming a common hazard. Some especially wide gaps require holding and jumping with a Squidcada icon.png Squidcada to cross. Common threats include Vulture icon.png Vultures, White Lizard icon.png White Lizards, Yellow Lizard icon.png Yellow Lizards and Centiwing icon.png Centiwings, which are unique to the area. This region is considered one of the most challenging for first time visitors due to its hard platforming, risk of falling and variety of threatening creatures.

    Tips[edit | edit source]

    • The section to the left of Communications Array, which connects the two halves of the region, features jumps that are too long for the player to complete under normal circumstances. The area before these jumps is full of Squidcada icon.png Squidcadas, which can help the player traverse the area.
    • If traveling from the other direction (i.e. coming from the Shelter on the left most part of the map) the area can be crossed by performing an extended crouch jump.
    • Background-climbing Lizards icon.png Lizards in Sky Islands can easily be made to fall to their death by hitting them with Rubbish icon.png Rubbish. This can also cause said lizards to lineage.

    Subregions[edit | edit source]

    Communications Array is a subregion located high above Sky Islands, reaching up into the clouds. At the highest point of the region, there is a navy colored RWPearl.png Pearl. Scavenger icon.png Scavengers, White Lizard icon.png White Lizards, and Vulture icon.png Vultures are able to travel to this subregion. As Hunter head.png Hunter, King Vulture icon.png King Vultures can also access this area. The room at the very top of Communications Array only drizzles nonlethal rain at the end of the cycle, making it possible to survive there indefinitely. For the DLC icon.pngSpearmaster head.png Spearmaster, this room also contains two communication logs as well as the final destination for their standard campaign. There are however no RW Shelter icon.png Shelters in which to hibernate.
