When you first get to level, it's about looking in the smallest of places to search for key items like armour and spirit gems.

I think that's meant to be the break in the game, I guess. In TEN and ANB it was all like fight, fight, fight. But the valley of Avalar gives you a break to explore and rescue and do simple yet back and forth tasks.

Valley of Avalar is a really fun level to play. Theres lots of action that goes on there, plus, its soooooo pretty!! smilie

I still only like the Valley of Avalar. Strange how that's the only level in the whole game that I like the best.
