[Khiinroye]

You can't scan the prototype-waypoints, so you probably can't scan the founts. I chocobo'd all over west saruta and didn't find anything though.

[Spira]

just read thru the dialog table in Ru'lude Gardens..

apart from names of areas/etc gleaned from the Proto-Waypoint.. no major spoilers or information is revealed from the quests..

however, i must give it up to SE for adding in pop culture references and memes where they can..

[dasva]

Anyone had any luck finding waypoints on the second quest, been widescanning all over La Thiene and haven't seen a thing.

It might be possible that these ones don't have npcs next to them so you can't WS....

[Esvedium]

Yay for having random clusters stored up on a mule. Time to get an assload of points for teles around the world! :D

[Classikmage]

It might be possible that these ones don't have npcs next to them so you can't WS....

Looks like a good ole' fashioned scavenger hunt!!

[Maurauc]

West Ronfaure's is at the exit to Bostanieux, meaning you have to go through to get to it.

On that note, the hints make sense.
Examples:
Uleguerand: "A corridor hidden by a silver shield": Ice wall at the top
Jugner: Something about being near lakes (I forget): Near King Arthro pop?

[NynJa]

2) W.Ronfaure / N Gusta / W Saruta / La Theine / Konschtat / Tahrongi / Jugner / Pashhow / Meri Mts. / Attohwa / Ule
3) Davoi/Beadeaux/Castle Oztroja/the Quicksand Caves/Sea Serpent Grotto/the Temple of Uggalepih/the Boyahda Tree/Oldton Movalpolos/Riverne - Site #B01/Castle Zvahl Keep

If the order matches up, it seems like it does

Green Light: A green light at the end of a dark prison
Ronfaure, go through Bostonieux (confirmed)

Clear Waters: A Roaring Dragon Bound for clear waters
Gustaberg, Go through Wadi, opposite river when you exit (confirmed)

Crowned Tower: A tower crowned with the name of an orchid
Saru - Amaryilis Tower F-4 (confirmed)

Deep Cliffs: The depths of cliffs that cleave plains in twain
Latheine, probably past the exit from ordelles, where thf AF is (confirmed)

Windmill: The power to run through a windmill-dotted land
Konschtat, "It's in L-5, on the very tip of the bone that runs pretty much all the way through the coordinate. Don't fall! " (confirmed)

Dust Cloud: The foot of a precipise where dust clouds rage
Tahrongi, "Tahrongi: I-9, pretty much centre" (confirmed)

Lakeside: Crimson shears sleeping by a forested lakeside
Jugner: King Arthro area (confirmed)

Swamps: Ceaseless raindrops in a swampy land
Pashow, Luremarsh (Confirmed)

Backbone: A mountain range where dragon bones form an arc
Meri, probably at one of the ends of the spine (G-8 confirmed)

Crags: Gigantic Crags where undying feathers rain down
Attohwa...probably top of the mountain (confirmed)

Silver: A corridor hidden by a silver shield
Uleguerand, probably top ENM entrance (confirmed)

[Maurauc]

If the order matches up, it seems like it does

Crags: Gigantic Crags where undying feathers rain down
Attohwa...where?
.

It'll be around Parramado Tor.. Remember that Key Item that you can run up the mountain for an (impossible) chance at the 100% HP/MP/TP feather?

Also, Tahrongi: I-9, pretty much centre, before you head into the mini-maze.

And you get limits points for them? Interesting!


FYI: THE FOUNTS DO NOT HAVE A MODEL. THEY'RE JUST A TARGETABLE POINT IN THE GROUND! (Yay?)

[Byrthnoth]

Stray Mary in kon probably.

Ule is the enm entrance up top

You may have attowha and tahrongi backwards?

[NynJa]

Top of the mountain sounds right, dont know why they called it crags though.

I dont think I mixed up those two names, if I did I appologize!

[fattucus]

Backbone: A mountain range where dragon bones form an arc
Meriphataud Mountains G-8
