Cofy on YouTube has printed a video information for sequence breaking Hole Knight: Silksong to unlock its double bounce, the Faydown Cloak, earlier than you are alleged to and with out the supposed prerequisite objects. The one catch is that it appears to be like extremely difficult to tug off, demanding each endurance and twitch reflexes.
Each Hole Knights are deliciously old skool in how they make you work on your double bounce, withholding it till deep into the sport. In Silksong, the Faydown Cloak is positioned on the prime of Mount Fay, previous a difficult, platforming-centric stage that requires the Clawline, an Act 2 capacity. No less than, it is alleged to require the Clawline. For the skip, Cofy wanted:
- The Needolin
- Swift Step
- Reaper Crest
- Drifter’s Cloak
- Sharpdart
That is already nuts as a result of the Sharpdart itself is designed to require the Faydown Cloak to seize—it is a Catch 22. However Cofy additionally has a information displaying the requisite leaping tech to get the Sharpdart earlier than the Faydown Cloak. Sharpdart is a touch assault that Cofy is ready to use as a poor man’s Clawline in the course of the climb.
Mount Fay’s solely entrance is within the Slab, so it’s a must to get captured by a Wardenfly and end the jail escape sequence first. After that, it is largely simply extremely intuition platforming. Cofy appears to make use of the Reaper Crest’s wider hurtbox to pogo off enemies whereas virtually stage with them, as a substitute of above. In addition they present that it is doable to leap up the seemingly unclimbable slippery slopes on the mountain.
Cofy’s gnarliest trick, although, is purposefully dying in strategic areas to depart behind a cocoon they will run again and pogo off for further peak, finishing in any other case not possible jumps. That simply feels significantly hardcore.
In any case that, you may, certainly, technically get the Faydown Cloak in Act 1 and with out the Clawline. However this is not precisely a useful trick for common gamers to turn into overpowered early. In truth, lots of the YouTube feedback on Cofy’s video recommend this implies Michael Saves’ Silksong Randomizer mod may be made much more difficult than it already is: Its merchandise spawn swimming pools not have to make sure that the Clawline is obtainable exterior Mount Fay to keep away from softlocking gamers.
