Paterson's Disciple Bacon:
For now, I'm going to try and harness the energy of the Wind Spirit Realm to reinforce the barrier. It may be weakening the barrier, but I believe if you utilize it carefully, the barrier can be strengthened by it.
The only problem is getting some of that energy. I think these monsters are the solution. They're most certainly being affected by the same energy. Go catch Corpse Looter Stakato and Lesser Laikel in the Sea of Spores and bring back 20 Wind Spirit Fragments.
