Useful Items in SL

While traveling SL, I have found some items that are helpful in more ways than one. While I have used them to help me travel around, they have also provided me with an easier way to help me build the sky amphitheater (which is 600 ft in the air, which makes falling a really big pain). So right now, I will present two items that can be helpful in your building and exploration of SL.

Chakra Focus

Location: !Naruto Ninja World - LPCS JUTSU, Insula Inferi Hills (149, 33, 401)


This little nifty item allows the user to walk on air or water (as seen here). What happens is that it creates an invisible base underneath you, so that whatever level you are on, it will create a base for you to stand on (like you are walking/standing on air/water). To use it, you have to equip the block onto you as well as activating both the focus and release animations. The only place that it won't work in is areas that don't allow building items.

There are two ways to get the item. First is to but the item for $5o lindens. It is located right by the camping chairs. The second way to receive it is to camp in the chair that says chakra focus for 1 hour.

Pros:
Can walk on air/water
Easy to use
Can work almost anywhere you go

Cons:
Have to equip the item (which takes up the right forearm space) and activate the two animations
Won't work in areas that don't allow building items


Intel's Jet-pack Location: Intel (124, 9, 134)


This item allows the user to exceed the limit that the person can fly (thus flying to the amphitheater at 600 ft is no longer a problem). To get it, you must go teleport to the island and go to the tower. At the base of the tower left click the jet-pack base to get the jet-pack. It then tells you to find two chips that are hidden in the tower. Once you find one, left click on it to receive power for the jet-pack. Once both chips are obtained, you can then fly as high as you want to (I have not checked how high you can go, but I think I went over 1000).

Pros:
You can go as high as you want, anywhere you can fly (no fly zones won't let you unless you are already flying when you already entered the area).

Cons:
The sound may get annoying to some people
Finding the chips can be a pain (that and the tower was causing me lag, but I was there when there was an event going on).



And those are two items that I found useful. I have a few others, but those can help you out for now. Post any other items that you feel are useful too if you want. I might even add a few more later on.



**Spoilers** **This section contains the location of the two chips in the Intel tower. Do not look at if you don't want to know where these chips are located and want to hunt for them yourselves.**

Chip 1:
The first chip is located in the core. Equip the jet-pack and left click the elevator. Select the core and go down. Along the top section of the core area (along the wall) is the first chip. Left click it (with the jet-pack equipped) to receive the first half of the jet-pack's power.

Chip 2:
The second chip is located directly at the top of the Intel tower, in the center of it. Go outside the tower (there is a roof at the elevator part) and fly upwards. You can't miss it (the only hard part is to get into its area without over passing it).

Okay, here's another one.

Teledash

Location: !Naruto Ninja World - LPCS JUTSU,

Warning: They have changed store location. Click on the giant sign in front of where you teleport in to get the new landmark.

Teledash is useful because it allows you to move around quickly (and through objects, such as walls, which can get you to areas that would take you longer to get to in a shorter time). It even works when you are flying. All you have to do is press the Page Down button to activate it.


Pro:
-Allows you to move quickly
-Can teleport through objects

Con:
-You may end up teleport past the point where you want to stop (and fall off a flying platform.
-You may end up teleporting into an object (thus forcing you to try to teleport out of there, hoping to not teleport off the flying platform your on).
-Takes away your Page Down button (which creates a big pain when you are trying to fly).
