News Pandora path repainting

[djkidkaz]

When Pandora opened there was a specific scent that was released into the area...Sort of botanical, sort of perfume...It was part of the immersion...even the air smelled different in Pandora...
Last time I was there I notice it was no longer there

I don’t ever remember this. All I ever smelled was the delicious chicken from Satuli Canteen. I do remember that there was a lot more smoke coming from Satuli in the beginning and it almost added an air of “haze” or “clouds” to the air. Assuming it was a happy accident,even though I saw it numerous times on numerous visits, but now I never see it.

Didn't know about the vines. Where are they and what do they do?

They are along one of the paths near the water-spitting creatures. They trigger some noises and some lighting effects in the plants at night.

Thanks... never heard anyone else talk about this or experience it myself.

When we were there last week they were still redoing the paint and man if the wind caught you just right it was like you were huffing a can of spray paint lol. The smell was really strong.

BUT, that said, here is a picture of the newly redone part during After Hours last week - so awesome looking.

The “Pandora Smell”, which is different than the sweet smell in the cave of FoP, was a sort of spicy capsaicin smell, as if you were smelling a particularly strong sweet pepper. It was fresh and very unique, and would really be the last step in transporting you to a new place.

I’m pretty sure they cut it, which is a shame because it was an incredible smell. It was Pirates Water level.

What is the Pandora smell?

The cast members describe it as "pepper grass" It's on and off, but I believe I smelled it last time. Other times it has been faint.

There’s a few. The plant at the entrance, the water creatures, a few vines that react to you. I agree it’s not as much as it sounded like but at least a few are there.

"Water creatures"? I love Pandora, but I haven't noticed any creatures in the water. Where are they? I want to see!

Tricky to find but look for a pond. They spit at you.

Thanks! Are they always on top, or do they rise up periodically? I will certainly look for them next trip.

They're always there. They attempt to shoot down small flying creatures from the sky with their blasts of water, so try moving your hand about near them. Maybe they'll think your hand is a snack and try to shoot it down.

Indeed. Look for the plastic-y red and purple-y sap splotches (like the one on the side of the big pitcher plant at the entrance of the land). They're the size of a fist. Just touching a patch will set off the effect. They have about a 10 second cool down before you can trigger the effect again.

Yep, always on top. Fun to watch new guests get spit at.

I always enjoy the land at night- I love the water features, lights, and exotic plants. I had no idea there were interactive things going on. Thanks!
