Half-Pendant Locations

[The Red Jaguars]

Was the golden ship half pendant more likely in the Heart Room or the Observatory?

Considering Gabby and Joe only entered 4 rooms, you would think this half-pendant was easy to find. To this very day though, I don't think anyone has found it. The only possible locations it seems to be are the Heart Room and Observatory. Gabby and Joe never entered the Observatory, but we get a shot of the room during the temple rundown:



As you can see, there's no evidence of the half-pendant being in the Observatory unless it was hidden on the floor somewhere. I do believe the artifact was in the Heart Room for several reasons:

1.) If the Observatory opened from the Wall Climb, it's possible that it was a route that Gabby and Joe could take directly to the Room of the Golden Idols and avoid triple capture. If the half-pendant was located in that room, that means that the Red Jaguars would have to take a path that avoids a temple guard AND contains the half-pendant.

2.) The second scenario could be that the Observatory opens from the Wall Climb and forces Gabby and Joe down into the Heart Room. If the half-pendant was located in the Observatory, that means that the Red Jaguars would have to take a detour route in order to find a half-pendant, which seems very unfair. I know Season 1 was very inconsistent, but most of the time the half-pendant was located on the direct path and one room away from the last guard.

3.) The Observatory doesn't seem to have any sign of the half-pendant, as indicated with the picture I posted.

I do believe the half-pendant was in the Heart Room, but located somewhere on the floor like in Great Seal's temple run. But I've watched this run countless times, and I have never found it at all. Which is very bizarre considering the team only entered four rooms. I know people hate on this team for being slow, but this was one of the most unfair temple guard layouts on the show. I would give Gabby and Joe a second chance, easily.

1. It was already confirmed that the great seal half pendant was hanging on a tiny hook attached to the camera-right rail of the Dungeon ladder connecting the room to the Pirate's Cove.

2. It would make more sense if the golden ship half pendant was hanging on the actuator to the idols room.

Are you talking about the Heart Room-Golden Idols actuator? That's a possibility. I'm pretty sure Joe hit the actuator to the Golden Idols before he was removed from the temple. So it's possible that Gabby didn't see it when she was retracing his steps since the door was already open. Other people have suggested that the actuator was in the Cave of Sighs, but I find that very unlikely.

Yes, that one. TSM might as well update the OP reflecting that the half pendant was "Most likely in the Heart Room". Leslie Kemp should do the same on the wiki.

I have another question: Was the treasure map half pendant more likely in the Heart Room (hanging on the actuator to the Treasure Room) or the Dungeon (in the same location as the great seal and lucky pig half pendants)?

[Legends Explorer Alec]

You know, I watched the episode carefully. I didn't see anything in the Dungeon during the credits. I saw that Aaron put his hand on something after he hit the actuator to the Treasure Room. Chances are, that's the half pendant. If it wasn't, then it was much likely in the Pirate's Cove on the weight blocking access to the Dungeon.

So here's my screenshot:

It was taken right after Aaron Lane hit the actuator to the Treasure Room. Was he really pointing out the half pendant?

I agree, it's possible that the half-pendant was on the Heart Room actuator. This run had two paths in the temple, and both converged in the Heart Room. If the Blue Barracudas stood on the top floor, then they wouldn't have needed the half-pendant. But since Aaron chose the bottom floor, he met the extra temple guard. And since both paths converged at the Heart Room, the half-pendant being located there would mean that it would still be possible for one of the runners to still find the half-pendant. I'm not sure what Aaron was doing in the Heart Room, but it's possible he was trying to signal it back. It looks like he's almost trying to grab it. Eusinia does the same thing in the "Cobra Staff" run too when she touches the half-pendant but does not signal it.

I think the last guard in the Treasure Map run would've been in the Tomb of the Ancient Kings. The half-pendant was either in the Dungeon or Treasure/Heart Room. I don't see the Pirate's Cove being a possibility, although Season 1 had some bizarre half-pendant locations.

I didn't see anything hanging from the Treasury/Shrine actuator like I did in the Trojan Horseshoe rundown. Therefore, what Aaron touched was definitely the half pendant.

TSM, Leslie, time for you two to update!

I don't doubt that the half-pendant is in the Heart Room, but I'm going to watch that run one more time just to see if the half-pendant could be anywhere else. Only because Season 1 had didn't really have consistent hiding places for half-pendants. But I agree with the Heart Room being the location.

[Legends Explorer Alec]

And was the moccasins half pendant more likely in the Heart Room or the Tomb of the Ancient Kings?

[The Red Jaguars]

If you follow the pattern for Season 1, the half-pendant was most likely located one room away. If the last guard was truly in the Dungeon, then the half-pendant was either in the Shrine or Tomb of the Ancient Kings. I wouldn't eliminate the Shrine as a possibility because it's possible that Mitchell could've entered that room instead of taking the Treasure Chest. And the Shrine could've lead to the Dungeon like it forced Tara down from there during the Sir Edmund Hillary run. Plus, the half-pendant was located in the Shrine for quite a few runs - Mata Hari, Gordian Knot, and Stolen Arm.

Any ideas where the Lost Logbooks half-pendant was located at? I'm guessing it was in the Heart Room or Treasure Room actuator somewhere. I don't remember if we ever found it since this run never gets a lot of talk?

The list on the wiki says that it was most likely hanging on the Heart Room actuator to the Treasure Room.

I think I finally found the star half pendant:
