What types of places can I find Koroks?
Koroks can be found pretty much anywhere outdoors on campus within the bounds on the map above,
aside from a few types of places (see below).
What types of places can I NOT find Koroks?
There won't be any Koroks in restricted, public, indoor, or too dangerous areas.
That includes construction areas, public roads and sidewalks, and any places you're clearly not allowed to be in.
Additionally, you should not have to travel into or through any of these types of areas in order to
reach a Korok.
What types of objects can Koroks be placed on?
Koroks are placed on things that a sticker can actually stick to (like metal, glass, or other kinds
of smooth surfaces). Stickers don't stick well to rough or dirty surfaces like bricks or bark.
Also, Koroks are only placed on static, non-moving objects. They won't be placed on things that would
reasonably be expected to move around.
Can Koroks be found on roofs, balconies, or any other such places?
All Koroks can be found without stepping a foot indoors. If there isn't a way to
get somewhere without going inside, then a Korok won't be there.
Do I have to look underneath anything?
Koroks won't be placed on any surfaces facing towards the ground.
That means you don't have to look on the underside of every table and bench on campus, for example.
In general, all Koroks should be able to be seen in some way without being crouched,
but that doesn't mean you won't have to crouch in order to actually scan
a Korok or to reach certain areas.
Is the parking garage in bounds?
Nope, we're counting it as indoors.
Can I share hints or locations of Koroks with others?
The challenge of this event is searching and finding the Koroks yourself,
so giving people hints or locations hurts competition
and is unfair to those searching without help.
However, it's fine to share locations while actively searching with others
(just remember, you're still competing with them on the leaderboard).
Just don't broadcast hints or Korok locations to other people,
in order to keep things fair.
We just don't want a situation where the top players
share hints with each other, meaning that no one else could possibly compete
by searching fairly.
Why did the Korok I scanned throw an error?
It could be an internet issue or it could be that it wasn't scanned properly.
Make sure to try scanning again.
If you continue to have issues, feel free to ask for help on our
discord server.
Additionally, you'll get an error when scanning Koroks from previous events that weren't
cleaned up. Make sure the sticker you're scanning has the 3rd RPI Korok Hunt logo
and matches in size with most of the other stickers.
If you find any old Koroks, let us know on our discord server.
