Should of made this a while ago, but if you have any questions about the game whether it be about routing or game mechanics, this is the place I will mostly keep my eye on (along with my twitch inbox, but I don't look at that as much)
Hi I was thinking of getting into speed running this but need to learn the basic glitches and stuffs :P Like to get to the 3rd thief guild.. I can not get pass the one guy at all...
And then there is the final boss glitch. I think it's pixel perfect where u have to stand and u shoot behind u or something like that?
Any help at all would be great! Thank you :)
Hello Enigma, I'm terribly sorry for the extremely late reply, only 2 people in the world currently run this game, and we haven't really bothered with runs for quite some time now. So I haven't really checked this page as often as I should, so my apologies...
As for your questions....I mention both getting past the guard, and killing the final boss here http://www.speedrun.com/Wizards_and_Warriors_III_Kuros_Visons_of_Power/guide/mb9do
they can be found near the bottom in the Q&A section. I go into a little detail about how to damage boost past the guard (but keep in mind, it is the hardest trick in the game, so don't expect to get it consistent overnight)
and as for the final boss, yes it is required that you have to stand on a pixel perfect location, but once you know where that is it's easy to do. you can watch either mine, or Chargepunch's run to see where we stand.
when you are on the pixel, you will need to switch to the 1st wizard (if you aren't already) Hold B to 'ready your staff' and then press 'left' this will shoot a fireball directly upwards, but behind your head. once you shoot the fireball you then immediately change to the 3rd wizard, and then hold be to levitate.
the glitch is 100% consistent and you don't have to do any of the actions within any sort of frame perfect timing, you can take a little time, just be warned that if you don't get it fast enough though Malkil will start flying and start shooting at you, making it harder to pull off
If you have any other questions pls feel free to ask me. I've added this game to my followed games again so that I know to check more often
Just realized that Twitch decided to delete my video, so you'll need to watch Chargepunch's run to see where you need to stand at the final boss
Thanks for the reply :D I haven't played the game in awhile so I will have to de rust a bit now xD
I did learn how to do the final boss glitch :) but the other one with the guard is a pain, but I will figure it out sometime :P
