Anyone know the best paths to take when doing the time trial for the Oracle? For those who have completed it, what paths did you take?

i myself just took random paths but used a fast skylander i think i chose Fright rider

Hmmm... I'd recomend Courage: Chompies, Big Fish, Either elemental trial, then the Beam refraction trial, with a fast Skylander, you should get it!

I used Stealth Elf & chose Chompies - Little Fish - Princess - Speed - Either.

I used Tree-Rex, I can't remember what paths I took though.

I used fright rider and went chompies, little fish, catch, and speed and finished with knowledge

I...don't remember what path I took but the funny thing is I still got it even though I finished a second after the actual time required.

Mostly just took my go-to speed demon: Stealth Elf.

Spiders I found to be smaller, more compact, so easier to complete faster (just the one big boss, really, so pretty fast)
Big Fish and Little Fish was hard... As Little Fish everything is so BIG, it takes longer to run everywhere! But I find in Big Fish, the enemies have deceptively high health. Pretty sure I picked Big Fish.

With Big Fish you get:
Trial Of Element: Either is a small room, one ambush and you're done, take your pick. Two Eruptors or Three Zaps.
DEFINITELY Reflection for the Trial Of Knowledge, it's very time consuming to do all the locks in the other. I don't think the time doing a puzzle counts, but you never know, and the in between stuff is more anyway.

With Little Fish:
Although Catch forces you to hurry, pick Princess, it's a much smaller quicker section.
Again, Speed forces you to hurry, but is long, so go with Power. And the Power challenge is easy with any character, while the Speed truly does need someone fast. The Power reference is really only that there's a shortcut for Giants.

And of course either Reward is just as quick, so who cares. If you've been through the left reward, the Reward Of Knowledge, enough times, they're both 500 gold anyway.

keep in mind that if you want to collect everything (hats, treasure, winged sapphire, etc) you will need to do every path thus doing the chapter multiple times.

This thread is SPECIFICALLY asking about how to complete the time trial for this level. You can't be picking up the collectables while trying to do the level quickly.

So, off topic.

I'm guessing you completed the level quickly at one point...

I got a LOT of goals accidently, just by playing...
