Grumbling Grottos

Tricky Winds is the second level of the Grumbling Grottos, a world from Rayman Origins. The heroes will need to use air currents and didgeridoos in order to progress throughout the level, similar to Wind or Lose. The PlayStation Vita version of Rayman Origins features a Ghost Mode of this level. This level is the second one in this world, and the tenth overall that is included in the Back to Origins painting in Rayman Legends.

Area 1

As the level begins, the heroes can use a nearby Swingman to swing left and reach the first Skull Coin of the level. This area is pretty straightforward from here on out; the heroes will need to use the green leaved air currents to go through the didgeridoos which block their path.

  A Lum King.

Relic 1

The first relic is located behind the didgeridoo to the right of Rayman.

Area 2

Area 4

Similarly to the third area, the heroes must glide in the air current to proceed, but this time they will be travelling horizontally. The heroes will need to avoid many more spiky birds in this area. The fifth Skull Coin can be found by gliding under two stationary spiky birds and a moving one. As they approach the exit, the heroes can glide up through a space between two platforms near a Darktoon, where they will find the second secret area to their right.

• 
  Several small spiky birds.
• 
  A big spiky bird.

Secret area 2

The heroes must be careful when passing through the moving didgeridoos with Darktoons attached to them. They will then need to defeat three Red Birds before the cage can be broken.

Area 5

Area 6

A passage filled with Darkroots.

With the aid of an air current, the heroes will need to glide and ascend in order to get through this area. The sixth Skull Coin can be retrieved by descending while avoiding a spiky bird and two Darktoons. The heroes will then need to continue to ascend by gliding, while avoiding many Darkroots on their way to the exit.

Relic 3

The third relic is located beneath the didgeridoo, directly below Rayman.

Area 7

The final area.

The heroes will need to defeat four Red Birds, which will hover above the Electoon cage. Once they have all been defeated, the cage can be broken, ending the level; the heroes will pose on the photoboard as the Magician waits for the total amount of Lums that have been collected throughout the level.
