Yes you need the torch at the place where you can get the passive lock. I think this glitch doesn't save alot of time. Pick up the torch, go back and Dashbash 2 of the 3 formations, jump on the 3rd formation and Flybash to the bridge. That's all.

Somebody would need to time that to see how much time it saves/if it saves time.

We found it years ago right when flybash was discovered... the time it took for Obelix to spawn next to you on the catapult ultimately made this strat slower.

Failentin

Yeah, I remember that took really long...

Deleted User

Okay. It took really long to get Asterix to the bridge. Figured it wouldn't save time. If I find anything I let you know.

Found out that this video record of Discord was our first step into discovering Tardis...

It all started with Yarny falling accidentaly inside the wall op the tip of the crate's hitbox.

And this was a year ago!

So there is a way to not activate the first lock in egypt by simply going into the water and keep as much distance as possible. It won't activate if you try to reach it from behind like I was doing it in this picture. You can even hit the wheel. It will activate tho if you go to far the left (the way you came from). I tried a few times if it's possible to make a double jump on the platform and reach the torch before activating the passive lock. Sadly it doesn't work. But maybe someone can make something out of it.

This could truly be useful for Low%.

Many of us already tried that, since we found out about it a few years ago already. And it is in theory possible to make this jump. But it has to be done so perfectly that there will probably never be anybody who can make this jump, and there is no way to make it easier. This spot is the one spot we really want to see skipped, but we were never able to find anything

TAS ? xD

ok i shut up

I also found this by trying @AndreofHazel's idea by reaching the top without Obelix. I didn't found anything interesting here either. It only blocks Obelix's way and since you need him for the metal boxes I highly doubt we could make something out of it. But who knows. Maybe you guys find something to do with it

AndreofHazel

This one had already been found but it is quite hard to achieve since you need to jump on the platform at the perfect moment.

Deleted User

@AndreofHazel indeed. It is hard to perform a perfect jump to reach that point. Since you came up with that idea I tried making something out of it. And one thing: At the Gladiator Fight in the Temple where we have to keep the torch lit, maybe it is possible to reach the next fire spot without beating the gladiator. I tried a few thing: jumping on the enemy, hitting him in the air to have more time to get over the water, make a water jump, make a timed double jump and even tough I couldn't make it I still think it's possible to make it over the water by performing a perfect timed jump to the stairs to the right

AndreofHazel

But the lock on the cogwheel won't go away unless you beat him.

Deleted User

@AndreofHazel you won't need the cogwheel if Asterix already lit the fire

Deleted User

Because the cogwheel only gets Asterix to the other side, so the torch won't go out. But if you make that jump with asterix you get a passive lock pretty fast without defeating the gladiator
