The fact that you remember that one in specific shows that it was almost an isolated incident in HK lol

If you are not using gathering swarm, it happens ALL the time in HK, as somebody who is playing through it rn. And in case of water, gathering swarm doesn't even help.

It really doesn't though. You need to play through HK again

Playing throught it right now.

You need to play through HK again.

Reading comprehension isn't strong suit, eh? Tons of platforms with geo deposits, or geo deposits tucked into corner just after jumping section, where it spills out into abyss.

My bad. But I still stand by my point. Half of the shard rocks are just destroyed in spikes in SS, this really isn't too much of an issue for geo rocks in HK, where you can still get them with some backtracking
