A “FOWL” ATTRACTION

This is the Quest with the locked pipe. You’ll need all the available Sparks (30 Sparks) to do this.
The access point to this golden pipe is where you did the long bridge puzzle in the Story Quest to drop the ladder of the crane.

You can scan for a bridge across to the golden pipe.

Defeat the Giant Magnafowl.

A LOST ART

In the south east of the Barrendale Mesa Map is a statue with a missing head next to a clogged white pipe. You need to find the head.

The Quest Giver

Next to the quest giver is a big purple tile on the floor that you can use to stabilise the bridge. Do so and cross it.
Just after you’ve crossed, notice the rock with the yellow whirl on it. When you scan ist, it will point to the left. Scan this area to the left and you will discover a ladder.

 image 2 | camzillasmomcom
Use the bridge stabiliser
 image 3 | camzillasmomcom
then scan for a ladder up

Ignore the blue pyramid key for now and climb up the other ladder.

Ignore the Pyramid Key for now
 image 7 | camzillasmomcom
Instead take the other ladder up

At the top of this ladder you can scan for a yellow bridge across. Cross this bridge and slide down.
Here you can drop a ladder and also destroy a big block with your WAVE ability (ZR). Destroy this block.

 image 6 | camzillasmomcom
Scan for a bridge and go across

Then destroy the big block in your way

The item on the other side is just a distraction. You can actually scan for another yellow bridge and cross it.
On the other side is a bridge stabiliser tile on the floor. Use it.

Scan for another bridge and go across

Now you can go and pick up that pyramid key. Carry it over the nearby stable and purple bridge to put it inside the device. The pipe is now open.

Next to the now open pipe is the statue’s head. Pick it up, slide down the pipe and put it on the statue’s shoulders.
The Planet Coin container appears and you are one coin richer.

BLUE COIN CHALLENGE

South of the crane is the usual blue pipe. Slide it down and do the challenge. It’s all about building bridges with the ZR ability stabiliser. There is also a Techno Crab as reward with the GALACTIC ATLAS: BARRENDALE MESA as reward.

BUILD BRIDGES

South west of the Barrendale Mesa Map are a couple of barriers that need to be taken down to get a Planet Coin and here’s how to do it.

 image 21 | camzillasmomcom
Quest location start on the map
 image 22 | camzillasmomcom
Barrier in front and the white pipe to the right

Take the pipe up. At the other end, jump down onto the purple bridge. Turn right and jump down on the ground floor. You’re now at the other side the of the Darkmess Barrier.

 image 23 | camzillasmomcom
Jump down from the top of the white pipe
 image 24 | camzillasmomcom
And from there jump down on the ground floor

There is one WAVE block that you can use as an “elevator”. Send it down with your ZR purple WAVE ability and push the nearby box on top of it. Send the “elevator” WAVE block with the box on it back up!

 image 25 | camzillasmomcom
Calling the WAVE block elevator down
 image 26 | camzillasmomcom
and sending it back up with the box

Next, we have to drop the barrier. Walk underneath the big purple bridge. On the other side you’ll find the yellow cube key for the Barrier Device. Carry it to the device and place it inside.

 image 27 | camzillasmomcom
Get the yellow cube key from around the corner
 image 28 | camzillasmomcom
And drop the barrier with it

Next to the barrier device is a big purple tile on the floor. It’s a bridge stabiliser. Use your ZR ability on it.
Then, go through where the barrier was and use the white pipe again. Jump down! You will fall through the first bridge onto the one below.

 image 29 | camzillasmomcom
Use the bridge stabiliser
 image 30 | camzillasmomcom
Go back up and jump onto the bridge below

Cross the bridge and use the bridge stabiliser on the other side. Now you can push the box over to the blue pressure plate.

 image 31 | camzillasmomcom
Another bridge stabiliser to use here
 image 32 | camzillasmomcom
Bush the box over the bridge onto the pressure plate

Use the bridge stabiliser again and cross over to where you can jump down on the ground floor.

 image 33 | camzillasmomcom
And again the bridge stabiliser
 image 34 | camzillasmomcom
Cross over and jump down to ground floor

At ground floor, use again the stabiliser. Then, go up the white pipe, jump down onto the bridge and go get the Planet Coin!

CANNON FRONT

To get to this area, you have to complete the TORTURED ARTIST Spark Quest.

 Cannon Front map Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Quest Start location on the map
 Cannon Front location Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Lower the Bridge WAVE block

Cross the bridge, dash and pick up the egg. Then, on the same ground level, go over to the Eye, as close as possible and throw the Egg. The Eye should be highlighted. Then you know it will work.

 Cannon Front location 2 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Pick up the egg
 Cannon Front location 3 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 1 | camzillasmomcom
and use it to destroy the Eye

Now the ramp is free from Darkmess and you can go down. Move the WAVE block to the left with your purple ZR ability so you can access the white pipe above.

 Cannon Front location 4 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
The ramp is now free
 Cannon Front location 5 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Move the WAVE block to the left

You can now climb up the ladder and use the pipe to the other side.
Here you can jump down to a movable box and a ladder you can drop down. Do so and climb down the ladder.

Up and through the pipe
 Cannon Front location 7 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Down at the other side

Next, we’re going to move this box onto the WAVE block. Move the WAVE block on ground floor to the right, go up the ladder to push the box onto the WAVE block. Go down again and move it, now with the box on top, to the left.

 Cannon Front location 8 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Move the WAVE block to the right
 Cannon Front location 9 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
and with the box to the left again

Pull the box along the yellow strip all the way to the other side.
Lower another WAVE block to push it onto the yellow pressure plate.

 Cannon Front location 10 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Moving the box along the yellow strip
 Cannon Front location 11 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Lower the WAVE block and you can get it on the other side

The barrier to the device is now dropped. We now need a blue pyramid key for it. Lower the WAVE block below the pyramid barrier. The Pyramid key is behind it. Raise the other WAVE block (the first one we lowered to pull the box to the pressure plate) so you can get to the device. Carry the pyramid and drop it onto the WAVE block close to the pressure plate. Then send it back up. Make sure you’re standing on the same side as the pressure plate.

 Cannon Front location 12 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
The Pyramid is behind this WAVE block
 Cannon Front location 13 Barrendale Mesa Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope 2022 | camzillasmomcom
Put it on this WAVE block and send it up

Now you can go up the ladder, pick up the Pyramid and put it into the device to lower the barrier.
Go down and raise the WAVE block near the barrier, where the Pyramid was. Otherwise you will realise, like me below, you can’t get the Planet Coin, after you’re scanned for the bridge!

Open the propeller container near the cannon to get the Planet Coin.

GENERATOR INVESTIGATOR

South of the Windmill is a green pressure plate, a green line where you normally could push or pull a box – but no box!
Go to the end of the green line and use your scanner (ZL). A box appears…

North east of the Barrendale Mesa Map is an area with a Darkmess Eye…
Climb up the ladder and enter the cannon to start.

 image 43 | camzillasmomcom
Quest location on the map
 image 44 | camzillasmomcom
The Darkmess Eye has to go

First of all not essential for this quest but still useful: drop the ladder for easier access.
Then, scan the area! There are footsteps leading to a hidden ladder down. Climb down this ladder.

 image 45 | camzillasmomcom
Drop the ladder near the barrier for easier access
 image 46 | camzillasmomcom
Then scan for footsteps and the ladder down

Use your WAVE ability (ZR) on the lowered WAVE block so it’s up and you have a bridge across to the yellow cube key.
Pick it up and drop it on the WAVE block.

 image 47 | camzillasmomcom
Raise the WAVE block with your ZR ability
 image 48 | camzillasmomcom
Go up and drop the cube on top of the same WAVE block

Go back down, lower the WAVE block, pick up the cube and put it inside the nearby device. This will drop the barrier to the only spot where you can throw the egg at the Darkmess Eye. Now go back up but make sure you raise the WAVE block again so you can cross over on top.

 image 49 | camzillasmomcom
Placing the cube into the device
 image 50 | camzillasmomcom
Going back up to the other WAVE block

Move this WAVE block too, so you can use it as bridge. Then, go up to the Darkmess Egg by climbing the ladder up. Dash and pick up the Egg.

 image 53 | camzillasmomcom
Move the other WAVE block with your ZR ability
 image 54 | camzillasmomcom
Then go up to pick up the egg

With the egg, slide down the nearby ramp and go up where the barrier was. From here you can throw the egg onto the Darkmess Eye.
Don’t forget to pick up the Planet Coin in the propeller container.

MAGIKOOPA HUNT

Just north of the garage is a Rabbid who needs help hunting and defeating 3 Magikoopa’s.
They are the ones that look like magicians and you can find them all over the Barrendale Mesa Map.
If you are struggling to find all 3 of them, travelling off planet or to another map and come back resets them.

The Red Coin Challenge is just behind the Gate to the Abandoned Settlement in the east of the Barrendale Mesa map.
For this challenge, you have to take the cannon right after you’ve gone through the red ring and then run around the settlement. The last two rings are behind the white pipe.
