Southwest Shorthop

Phases

First Cycle

During the first cycle, the lanmolas spawn points within the room are fixed. Even though their behavior after surfacing is random, the consistent spawns allows you for a consistent setup and approach to open up the fight

All Subsequent Cycles

In every cycle after the first, the lanmolas spawns become random.

Strategy

NMG First Fight

  1. Practice this a lot. It's the only way to develop necessary spatial awareness, pattern recognition, and reactions.
  2. For the first cycle, bonk the top wall and move up 1-2 pixels (good idea to use Sword Buffer) for this. This puts you in a good position that allows you to shoot at the left and right lanmolas safely.
  3. Strongly favor the bow in this fight over the sword. The bow does twice as much damage. Only use the sword if you know you'll be unable to position yourself for additional arrow hits.
  4. Missing arrow shots can be significant. The game only lets one arrow in the air at a time, so if you miss, you'll have to wait for the arrow to hit a wall before you can continue shooting.
  5. Keep track of how much damage you've done to each worm. You don't want to waste time or arrows shooting at a worm that's already dead.
  6. How the lanmolas move in the room should influence your approach. If a lanmola spawns and moves downwards, it's vertical position on screen will actually remain very stable for a short time before it takes its dive. This allows you to easily stand next to it and get two or more arrow hits in. For upwards moving patterns, you'll have to learn how to follow the lanmola along its path.
