https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmfSu27VRZ4 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%
-ReDxc-
My guess is that you need "hug the wall" after reaching the platform
Failentin
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.
-ReDxc-
I talked about this wall
-ReDxc-
Just almost every time I touched this wall, I avoided softlock. But again, not 100%
-ReDxc-
It looks like a Tardis (I'm talking about the probability of error)
Simaf
It's weird because the first two times, I didn't even care about this wall
Simaf
and it worked
Simaf
Maybe Failentin, maybe ^^
Failentin
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.
-ReDxc-
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 😄
Failentin
But the next time I tried, the softlock happened again x)
Simaf
Apparently in 4/3, the softlock doesn't happen according to Nekin :TotalKappa:

https://youtu.be/dyRPPwa9y_o?t=2401 That's how Jean went through this segment
-ReDxc-
He does two dashes at the beginning of the descent and then just runs to the start of the "slide"
-ReDxc-
I noticed that if you run closer to the left side, the probability of softlock also decreases
-ReDxc-
But until proven, it is only a placebo, i guess
AdrienTD
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
Simaf
Yeah, but you would lose your passive lock... :/
