How to solve Sarentu Totems in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

Many mysteries await you to uncover in the new region of Pandora your character wakens in in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Unlike a traditional open-world game, especially a Ubisoft-developed one, this title doesn’t hold your hand nearly as much when solving any of its environmental puzzles. The Sarentu Totems are optional locations you can seek out across the frontier, but finding one is just the beginning. Once you do, you need to find a very specific place to view it from in order to unlock the secrets it holds. With so few clues, you’ll need a bit of guidance to learn the tricks to solve these totems.

When you encounter a Sarentu Totem, you will find a large, spiral-shaped object usually on a cliffside or overlook of some sort. Your only objective when you approach one is to find the correct spot to stand at and view it from by following “markers.” These markers aren’t going to show up on your HUD or even be highlighted with your special Na’vi vision.

You need to look at the little triangular bit of fabric sticking out of the side of the totem. This is an arrow pointing to another identical arrow somewhere on the ground in that direction. You must follow all these arrows, which may not even be in sight from one to another until you get to the designated spot. You will know you have arrived when you get a button prompt to observe the totem and complete the puzzle.

Up until 2020, Fortnite was the undisputed king of iPhone games. However, when a legal spat between Epic Games and Apple spiraled into a court case over the game's microtransactions, the game was delisted and no iPhone version of the game is available. With there being no indication that an official version will ever come back, mobile users need to seek alternative methods to get their battle royale fix. You don't have to abandon your buddies on the battle bus for another game, though, because there are a few workarounds to get you back into the game on iPhone.

Best cooking recipes in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Harvesting a fruit in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.

While it isn't quite a survival game where you're required to eat, foraging for ingredients to cook meals is highly encouraged in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Sure, you could just eat raw ingredients to make sure you never fully deplete your energy, but you'd be missing out on some very powerful buffs that a well-crafted meal can provide. You obviously will be unfamiliar with basically every ingredient you come across on Pandora, as it's an alien planet after all, and even your character will have no idea what effect mixing up a couple of plants or bits of meat will yield until you try it out. If you didn't come to this planet to play Gordon Ramsey, here's a breakdown of the best recipes you can cook in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and how to make them.
Best recipes and how to cook them

Cooking is done at any cooking station that you can find at every Na'vi or resistance base. Once you interact with it, you can select two ingredients to mix together and see what meal you come up with. Meals can have one or two buffs depending on if they're a standard or specialty recipe, but they always refill your energy.
