Living Network

The Living Network is a later game mechanic that in which the player makes connections between Buds starting at the bottom of the map.

The purpose of connecting Buds is to connection the broken Pods as well as connecting the Living Network to Ultros itself. In addition Living Network Doors also only open when connected to the Living Network.

The Living Network is shown on the map by a rainbow line and in game is denoted by a ethereal tether when the player is actively making connections. Though the Living Network is not visible in game like it is on the map, Wisps will float around where the Living Network is and has made connections.
