Does anyone know how to do the backflip d-boost that gives you massive vertical height and speed as opposed to horizontal? I saw benal use it in his latest run, and I can't seem to nail it.
Once you grab the ladder, point at the opposite direction that you are facing and mash Backflip. It is not very difficult to execute on big ladders, but once you get the hang of it, try the shorter ones since they are a little bit more difficult. Important to mention that in the beginning I was pressing UP instead of the opposite direction I was facing, and it still worked but not all the time. Try doing that and give us feedback :D
Oh, lol. Sorry, I know how to rocket ladder jump, I'm talking about actually taking damage to gain vertical speed. Benal uses the dinos in red forest on the way to frog and the eyes in dead forest on the climbing section.
It's all about timing. On exact time (or 1-2 frames after) when enemy or projectile hits you, do a backflip.
yeah it's all timing. it's actually not that hard to do if you practice it enough. i recommend hesitating a frame after getting hit before backflipping, that's the easiest way to do it (for me)
Thanks guys! I’ll have to practice that. I’ve definitely been doing it before and not after.
