Bad Gear Push Explained

Note: For the trick, hold left for a couple of frames as Simon lands after the medusa boost. On the gear or below the spikes both works.

Strat Compare Time Saves

First climb Stage A despawn Gear Nobs

Note: This reduces lag and saves almost a second.


Boss: Akmodan II (Mummy)

Overview

  • The biggest time loss/save comes from the Mummy whose spawns are random. The best outcome is a 1 cycle in which he would spawn from either the far left or far right of the screen.
  • Each full cycle costs 1400 frames (~23.3 sec)
  • Half a cycle or if you are one hit off is still a 700 (~11.6 sec) frame time loss. So it is worth to practice nailing the 1 cycle or any subsequent cycles to lessen the time loss.

1 Cycle Mummy Strats

Right Side

Notes:

  • For both of these videos, these are best scenarios. Mummy can give fireballs as an attack instead of bandage and positioning will have to change.
