Clearing the boulder to Dapplewoodis one of several quests for players to complete inPaleo Pines. However, with several blocked pathways, some players might wonder where to find the path to Dapplewood and how to clear the boulder blocking the way.
Where Is Dapplewood In Paleo Pines?
Players can find Dapplewood in the northwest area ofPaleo Pines' map, marked by a large patch of dark green dense forest trees. A large group of boulders blocks the path to Dapplewood, as marked on the map above, and players mustfind a Smasher type of dinosaurto clear the way.
A Styracosaurus is the early-game Smasher that players can find and befriend, making it the best option for unblocking the path to Dapplewood.
How To Befriend A Styracosaurus In Paleo Pines
To clear the boulder, players must firstbefriend and build the trust of a Styracosaurus dinosaur until it becomes a Helper.However, befriending a Styracosaurus in Paleo Pines is slightly different from taming other species, as it involves some more steps since the dinosaur is known to be more challenging to tame within the village setting.
Befriending dinosaurs inPaleo Pinesrequires players to buy and feed them a Poppin cupcake. Taming a Styracosaurus is similar, but the species prefers a different flavor of Poppins called Juicy Poppins. Therefore, before attempting to befriend a Styracosaurus, players should speak to Pippin in the village square and ask her to make another flavor -Juicy Poppins, a blue unlockable variety of Poppins that require eithercarrots or strawberries.
Once players have gotten the ingredients from their farm or as a reward for completing town board quests, she’ll hand players two Juicy cupcakes to try. Players can then find a Styracosaurus to befriend aroundthe outskirts of the village. Follow all the usual steps to befriend a dinosaur, and give the Styracosaurus the Juicy cupcake once or twice to seal the deal and obtain its initial trust, soothing the creature if it becomes too excited.
How To Build Dinosaur Trust In Paleo Pines And Get A Styracosaurus Helper
It can take a while tobuild a Styracosaurus' trustafter befriending it. To help speed the process up, players can give the Styracosaurus different foods and treats daily, like cranberries, carrots, and more Juicy Poppins. Players can also increase their friendship levels by playing its friendship song. It’s also crucial to ensure the Styracosaurus is kept well-fed and has a large, clean pen with a dreamstone.
Although a loner dinosaur type, players can keep it with other dinosaurs at first while building another pen. However, players may have more luck making a separate, large pen containing another Styracosaurus for a friend.
How To Clear The Boulder To Dapplewood In Paleo Pines
Once a Styracosaurus becomes a Helper dinosaur, players can equip it with a saddle and ride it. The Styracosaurus’smashing abilitiescan then be used toclear the boulder blocking the path to Dapplewood, completing the Path to Dapplewood quest. Once this is done, players can explore Dapplewood to find other species of dinosaurs and plants, as well as use the Styracosaurus to clear more obstacles.
