#moss mother 7

counting from her death explosion 15 needle hits let's u pass the vine wall on the 16th beat right as it opens

A 100% consistent right side MM kill that requires no damage tanks. Could be useful for new players or anyone that has 1hp entering MM. It is ~0.2s slower than current strat but a win in my books.

• Hit her once and only once before she gets to the wall and then proceed as normal.

This has been known for a bit but nobody ever posted about it, pogoing through the vines here is slightly faster since even though you hit the bud at a similar time, the gate doesn't actually close until you reach a certain point in the arena. Noticed by Gaia first I believe. Unsure how much it saves, I think it's about 0.1-0.15

This is 0.3 seconds faster than https://discord.com/channels/772964112908156938/1365521515356885032/1431836127303827576 :zote:

(LEFT) you can upslash and dmg tank instead of pogo to land final hit faster.
(RIGHT) There's RNG on how faster she does dive attack after MM gets staggered, if you only get 5 hits instead of 6, you'll be short 1 but you can do an upslash, dmg tank, pogo, into slash instead.
Good luck lol

because it hasnt been posted in this channel yet- you can hit this small bud immediately above the door to start moss mother instantly upon entering, and still make it to left side easily for a faster kill

small optimization of the moss mother fight start, starting slightly to the left of her and then moving right also gets you the same 4 nails of the normal strat, but moss mother reaches the right wall faster, so this should be slightly faster

also just what i think an optimal fight looks like, i think the damage tank is required to consistently kill her before she attacks to the left
