neat little way to start the galien fight by pogoing his scythe before it actually starts moving at you, helping for better fights on average. spacing is kinda tight, but you have a good amount of time to get in the right spot before he spawns in. i count 10 nail slashes to time this, you can probably just react to the scythe tho. right video shows hitboxes
12here're some stuff i labbed for the wingless climb up in left-side King's Pass on the way to cyclone / gorb some while back (since its semi-cursed bc of the wall architecture). the consistent variant loses some 0.08s and is infinitely easier, because the other one requires a full height jump which is just aaaaa, as well as putting you in a more comfy spot to keep moving upwards.
the dash at the end is definitely optimal, I spent about an hour timing different ways to get up the transition, and this was both the easiest and the fastest.
Cues I use for the background crystal pogo to skip having to lure the crystal hunter to get up to Crown. The first clip is the tighter setup that involves pogoing the crystal on the way up while holding left the whole time. Jump once you see the crystal just start to be visible between the knight's horns. The pogo timing is somewhat tight but it nowhere near as bad as when you eyeball the setup. The second clip essentially ensures you get the max pogo height by falling into the crystal hitbox with the nail hitbox out. Press nail just as you begin moving down, and start holding left as soon as you hit the crystal. Saves a few seconds and wrangling with buggy.
