That's my answer about previous question. You can't reach the platform by jumping on the first stage, but can by jumping on second and third.
> This strat worked twice for me, but it didn't work on my last attempt, I just softlocked even if I was doing everything normal...
@Simaf To be honest, I lost a lot of runs to this softlock. It seems to me that only Jean can tell us what this softlock depends on because I saw this trick for the first time in Potion%
My guess is that you need "hug the wall" after reaching the platform
I think it should definitely be faster to land on the third elevator. Because even if you miss a bit of the combo bar after the third elevator, by dash-bashing the first army you can quickly fill it up.
Just almost every time I touched this wall, I avoided softlock. But again, not 100%
It looks like a Tardis (I'm talking about the probability of error)
It's weird because the first two times, I didn't even care about this wall
Maybe Failentin, maybe ^^
And yeah, the softlock is still a mystery. I've done some even weirder stuff: I skipped all three elevators, filled the combo bar with the armies, did this flybash and activated twister right before the tunnel since I hoped it would warp Obelix to me like it does in XXL2 (sadly it didn't). And yet, after that, the softlock didn't happen.
Here is the same thing. I never thought about this, but when I received softlock in 5 runs in a row, I already had to 😄
But the next time I tried, the softlock happened again x)
Apparently in 4/3, the softlock doesn't happen according to Nekin

That's how Jean went through this segment
He does two dashes at the beginning of the descent and then just runs to the start of the "slide"
I noticed that if you run closer to the left side, the probability of softlock also decreases
But until proven, it is only a placebo, i guess
In Any% at least you can use the druid to save/reload and teleport Obelix, which you can't in Potion% because for some reason the game doesn't let you save while you are in potion
Yeah, but you would lose your passive lock... :/
