[Show/Hide] Stage 04
Standard
- Once you gain control of Simon either walk or jump to the base of the stairs, climb the stairs and then jump to the next platform. Either when jumping (or after landing on the top platform) jump and activate the stop watch. Walk past the frozen knight and bat. The difference between activation during the jump from the first platform to the second is just comfort.
- Walk up the stairs after the bat and knight. Once at the top of the stairs jump to the platform. Jump up so your head at the peak of the jump is at the candle, once you land take a step or two and jump again to jump over the bat and land on the lower small platform after the knight.
If you do this correctly you will not touch the edge of the next platform, if you do not bump into that edge then you should be able to hit the framerule at the door.
Jumping over the bat and pit
- After jumping to the next platform, jump over the knight and onto the moving platform get to the door. You can optionally whip the candle before the door mid jump.
Jumping over night and getting to the door
Axe Backup
- If you have the axe instead you can immediately throw an axe to hit the knight from below this will collect the cross from the first candle. Then throw a cross when jumping to the upper platform to kill both the knight and the bat.
[Show/Hide] Stage 05
Standard
- Watch for control of Simon (I usually look at the candles) after the door. Jump immediately to have the medusa hit spawn above Simon's head level so you can just walk to the right. You need to collect 6 hearts (5 to use the watch and 6th for a holy water throw in stage 6) - you can either collect one from a candle and then get the big heart after the knight.
- Otherwise you can do the candle lottery. Similar jump immediately after the door but whip as well, collecting hearts from the higher candles. If you are not at 4 by the time you hit the raised platform it might be best to just grab the big heart.
- Once you go up the stairs do a whip buffer then jump over the two pits. Attempt to land as far to the left as you can on the second platform, pause and when the second medusa spawns jump backwards out over the pit taking a boost from the medusa to the upper platform. From there walk to the left and jump when your foot hits the following area:
