Nail swings are all you should worry about first when it comes to timing, because most of the time you can pogo while holding down the whole time. Timing - Time the hit so that you have a little room to fall slightly without your Knight's body hitting the thing you're trying to pogo off of, but not so high that you miss the swing. Add more pogos as you get the rhythm of it.īasic pogo key combination: down + nail swing Pogo twice and land normally, once you're consistent at that.
Practice first in one spot without going left or right, and with a stationary object (like some simple low spikes with level or lower ground you can leave and return to as needed), so you're not trying to manage too many variables at once. Trut me, I can't handle pogo jumps consistently but I reached 100%, so it's not a must. Pogo on spikes it's more likely to be a life saver if you miss a jump to avoid landing on them than something you need to master in order to beat the game. If you find yourself needing to pogo jump an area, it's most likely you can clear that area later on the game with other tools you might not have yet like Crystal Heart, Mantis Claw, Mothwing Cloak, Shade Cloak, or Monark Wings. pogo jumps on spikes are mostly shortcuts that I assume might help in speed runs, but they are not the only way.
The best advice is the one already given, to practice with the purple mushrooms until you can consistently do it.Īnd if you are strugling to pogo jump on spikes, just don't. Originally posted by jjrobinson2:No instructions in game, very difficult to find anything online that actually tells how it's done, It's true this game doesn't come with instructions for many things, but you don't find online info on this probably because it's simpler than you think. It's the only area in the game where it's required to progress further, if I remember correctly.

The requirement to use downward slash (purple mushrooms in Fungal Wastes) is already quite late in the game, where you probably already used it on your own (while figuring out how to defeat Vengefly or Hornet for example, or go over the walking bugs in the acid, or while just trying to smash/hit the purple mushrooms and notice they bounce you off). The rest you discover, experiment and learn for yourself. This game is all about discovering new things you can do in the game world on your own. I found it easier on the XBox 360 Controller, while I was just keeping the analog stick always all the time in the down position, and only slightly moving it left or right to change direction, then immediately back down again. People with such goals ahead hardly need any advices.I agree, this mechanic at the very beginning was giving me a bit of getting used to it too. I believe OP just wants to beat PoH, he in not into speedrun stuff like beating all bosses taking no damage at all with fury of the fallen on for extra speed. P.S.: You can also use storage exploit for "Furied" state and go All Bindings with 25 Base Nail Damage/ 63 Nail Arts Damage, but any hit (Lifeblood protected included) will wear FotF effect off, so you shouldn't get hit at least till defeating the Collector.
