"What have I missed so far? (ready to enter swamp)"
I've been up to see Bela (northern wilderness) and am ready to enter the Swamp.

Things I'm stuck on, or haven't used yet, are:

* Raw meat from croc pool (take back to the microwave in upper monestary?)

* Access denied to computers in upper monestary

* Hut doors sealed tight on the roads

* Tracking device in Arnika missing an item (I keep hearing about this Hologram in Arkania, but damned if I can find it.)

* Can't get into tower in Arnika

* Can't get into to the 'chosen one' room (with a chest, behind bamboo door) in Trynton trees

* Don't know what to use on a pedestal in Trynton trees (close to the above room)

* Haven't gotten to 7th bough (have petals and myst potion, can't use however)

* No discovered use for HLL silver ball (take back to barracks in Arnika?), empty bottles, ruined flight recorder, x ray chip, green box, silver panel, lightning rod (I don't have a gadg yet)

At this point I hate backtracking so I'd appreciate any out-and-out spoilers on what I've missed.

Thanks,
- John

1. "Followup"
Some info I've culled from the boards:

The cemetary - activate 4 gravestones with runes on them, put holy water on the ghost

Mook hologram is apparently on the north edge of the city.

The 7th bough can be accessed from the 6th somehow.

3. "RE: Followup ***** DETAILED SPOILER ******"
1. There are 6 'activatable' gravestones:

1 in each of the 4 corners of the cemetery
1 in front of the central building
1 behind the central building

2. You have to use the mystery potion and zuzu flower in the right place to get to the 7th bough. It's off the square room in the north-west corner of the upper branches of trynton (the one where you can't use magic.) The room is labelled '7th bough', or something equally cryptic

3. The mook hologram shows up when you try to get into a building at the north end of Arnika. If you have a mook in your party, he will leave your party, then show up again a day or two later. Not sure what the purpose of his/her absence is...

4. "RE: Followup"
I activated the gravestones a while ago, but couldn't figure out what else to do, so I left.

I just went back to do the holy water thing, and found the gravestones de-activated. I cannot activate them again, nor can I use holy water on anything. Anybody know if I'm missing something?

5. "Still stumped by the cemetary"
Yeah I'm stuck there too - and would like to get rid of that portal there and move on. I tried casting and using holy water but the characters refused. Maybe if I just drop it on the spectre?

I activated five of the six gravestones, but the sixth won't turn on. Hrm. Apparently this is actually a separate puzzle continued later in the game - see http://vnboards.ign.com/message.asp?topic=19627593

6. "RE: Still stumped by the cemetary"
yep. dropping worked. thanks!

guess we'll just have to wait and see about the gravestones, though I don't know why 5 would work for you but not the 6th ...

Here are your answers...well, at least parts of them

- The raw meat can be used in the Trynton Upper Branches. It requires alitlle thought and, um, preparation.

- Haven't access the monastery computers yet. (And I've been trying for over a year)

- You'll be able to open the hut doors later in the game.

- The tracking device... see one of your other items below... The hologram appears when you try to enter the Mook establishment in Arnika.

- You get into the tower later.

- You can open the door when you complete a quest

- The pedestal (the one by the door), part of the above quest

- The 7th bough, try asking around. I'm sure one of the NPCs (in Trynton) knows what's up...

- The silver ball (I seem to remember one your earlier issues...); I've 2 uses for empty bottles--you aren't there yet; The other items seem like junk, but you'd be surprized what a gadgeteer can do with junk...

Hope this helps.
