I think it's also important for the skip with 2 paste bombs to whatch out for gold or anything else in the crust that could potentially trigger a powder cake and ruin the skip
Make sure to place all the bombs at once! Or however many you placed down will knock the ones you placed late into you, in my run this was how I lost my jetpack, ahnk and my sanity after dying to abzu 🙂
Really thorough! Good job! I watched because I did Ankh Skip with True Crown on stream and was looking for previous instances. You just need to move the idol at least 8 seconds before your next teleport and do it the standard teleporter way.
Thanks for this, I fell in spikes on 4-1 and didn't want to abandon my run, and I managed to pull off the paste skip! I unfortunately then died on 6-2 due to a spark trap pinging me under an elevator trap. Goddammit
I "accidently" did 1 bomb skip because I blow up the third pillar instead of the second (was using pitcher's mitch), so I jumped there and immediately place rope. It feels so good
Picked up a Teleporter in 4-2 and realized that I forgot Excalibur. Did the Teleporter skip, got to Abzu, bombed Kingu, but died right before she did. I think I might start doing Ankh skip and Crown skip instead of the full chain, bombing Kingu is way more fun than using Excalibur
I usually never have enough bombs, and I suck at timing bomb aswell, so I just go for the Excalibur (if i forget it or lose it, i do try bombing though)
no because the powerpack's explosion is much larger, it explodes like the powered bombs it gives you. the jet/hover packs only explode like a regular bomb.
just failed a run because the paste method at 2:15 didn't work. the second bomb didn't destroy the platform the explosive box was sitting on so it didn't fall and blew up, spilling lava all over me. i was holding the sword so i couldn't get it back after being revived. rip. i think the fault was because the bomb wasn't placed near enough to the platform. but if that's the case it was only by pixels at most
I tried the paste method you described and it failed, the powder box next to me didn't drop, and blew up my cover. I'm willing to bet it's either I wasn't hold up when throwing the bomb or because I had Pitcher's Mitt, but now my Excalibur is in the lava and I'm pissed about it >:( Really should have went into more detail with these tbh
At least I had enough bombs to crack her she'll, but I left on 1 HP (entered with 5, managed to get a dog in Abzu so I actually left with 2 but that was insanely stressful)
Hey, im new to Spelunky. Whats the advantage of entering this room? I don't understand why somebody would give away the ankh to do this in the first place?
@@Phylaxarus Yeah, i did'nt had it 😂 I lost my Ankh to get there and then I fell to 1Hp while fighting the boss and left for the next level 😅 Next time i bring the Excalibur! Thanks my man!
I don't know if you knew this or forgot to put it in but for the 3 bomb paste skip, if u have pitchers mitt you have to place it INWARDS. Just thought I'd mention because I heard to learn the hard way lol
@@ajsucks6897 ohhh I see it now. The bombs are slightly to the right of the idol, so with the pitching glove going from the other side with push them slightly further and put them in the right spot
Whenever I try doing the 4 bomb no paste skip the bombs knock each other out if the way and I die. Anyone know why? I’ve lost my good runs because of this.
I feel like they've been patched out on the switch. Tried the paste skip 2 times, both times the blasts weren't the correct size. Tried the no-paste skip twice, both times one of the bombs was nudged by the extra bombs and messed it up. Tried the power pack skip once, it exploded way too early, even though I was higher than your indication line. The only time I got to skip was a hidden door
@@bigmak7559 No indeed, they do however make you stick to walls, which when your entire setup relies on lining up by jumping on a wall poses a little problem
I tried 2 bombs paste several times with pitcher's mitt and it didn't work, it always left the inside powder keg, so I think it messes up the placement of the bombs a bit
Either 4 Bombs (No Paste) doesn't work anymore or I didn't place the bombs in quick enough succession. I tried to spam all four as quick as I could but one of the explosive boxes did not drop, costing me my jetpack and Ankh (TBH, I should've dropped my jetpack off just in case I _did_ fail it, which I did, but Hind-sight is always 20/20). No biggie, I still made it to 7-3 which is a personal achievement, considering I've only made it that far 3 times in the 150 hours I have in the game.
@@Pastryperson I've made it to Cosmic ocean solo now, but im still coming back for the skips cause i dont have them memorized, and no one seems to have a pitcher's mitt 4 bomb skip for some reason
After a couple of days losing in the same way after doing exactly the same, I realized that this skip doesn't work with Pitcher's Mitt. Just tried it with no Mitt, still works. Maybe you had one equipped?
"Careful, that's a one-way door!"
"Careful, that's a... wait what?"
Dang I needed this an hour ago xd
Git gud
Agreed
Skill issue
Also for the powerpack skip it should be noted that it only works if you drop it while it's on your back, you can't whip it or drop it from your hands
Good point, i should have mentioned that
how the fuck do you hold a powerpack via hands?
If u have something else on your back
@@peoprie how it just replaces it
@@that_tilton9662 have a powerpack already on your back
I think it's also important for the skip with 2 paste bombs to whatch out for gold or anything else in the crust that could potentially trigger a powder cake and ruin the skip
Powder cake

Tried the 4 bomb skip just now for the first time and worked right away. Especially nice since I lost the ankh on the previous level
Really thorough! Good job!

this was helpful. your videos are so high quality and informative you definitely deserve a sub
Glad it helped, thanks for the sub!
I "accidently" did 1 bomb skip because I blow up the third pillar instead of the second (was using pitcher's mitch), so I jumped there and immediately place rope. It feels so good
I got a win thanks to your ankh skip thank you so much!!!
glad I could help and gg
I'm at the point where this video comes up in google's autofill before actual youtube 😂thanks for making it
I love the one that takes advantage of the back side.. 👏
2:05 this one is the best
This wouldve been reeeealy useful before I took a year and a half long break from spelunky

“Careful friend that’s a one way door”
“CaReFuL fRiEnD tHaTs A oNe WaY dOoR”
*do not do 4 bombs if you have paste
Good video, although you could use a pitcher’s mitt but no paste skip. (4 bomb skip doesn’t work)
Great editing
5:04 HOW DID YOU THINK OF THAT???
THAT'S AMAZING 😂
pro tip: don’t do the two bomb paste skip if you have a powerpack, i learned the hard way
This skip worked perfectly, only problem is I lost my ankh to the ghost right after :(
I would like to say that there is also a way to do 4 bomb mitt skip every time with a consistent line up.
Can you please explain the line up? Or do you just mean the alignment with the brown texture/ rope?
@@arandomyoshimain9269 I have a video that I made that shows how to do it

I can't get the 4 bomb skip to work consistently. Could it be that I keep getting pitcher's mit? Or am I just going to slowly
Pretty sure that the pitcher's mit slightly changes bomb placement
@@seanireland7182THAT'S WHY IT DIDN'T WORK
@@thomasferry8296 i didn't even remember making that reply until you replied lol
@@seanireland7182 well thanks for making it bc I would've kept making the same mistake
@@thomasferry8296 np :)
The four bomb skips literally only works half of the time but it used to work every time. It just decides not to hit the left explosive box
Yea right? Did they change something? Same thing for me lol
So I was in tide pool 4-3 then I heard a explosion in a repeating way and I realized IT WAS A ANKH SKIP!
2:12 For me the 2 bombs paste is the easiest one(maybe)
I tried the paste method you described and it failed, the powder box next to me didn't drop, and blew up my cover.
I'm willing to bet it's either I wasn't hold up when throwing the bomb or because I had Pitcher's Mitt, but now my Excalibur is in the lava and I'm pissed about it >:(

Yoo what can I do without paste and the golf hand "sorry I don't know the name because I'm Italian"
Look up the 4 bomb ankh skip
Ciao, in inglese si dice “pitcher’s mit” :p
How is the backlayer skip not situational?
Thanks I needed it
Bro I Love you for this
omg that's a nice ones I never tried before tysm
The 4 bomb pasteless skip never works for me, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
dude you are TOO useful
The 2 bomb paste doesn't work for me, the block im in always explodes too...
hover pack too, you could float in the air and use rops to get out, i think atleast before i'll try it out GTA 6 will come out
I cannot get the 4 bomb to ever work. The second TNT never falls.
Always when I try to do the bomb skip, I think I place them too late after each other and they bounce away
i did the 2 bomb paste skip and everything was going perfect. then a assasin dropped on me and i fell to lava... i really hate this game sometimes
The one bomb throw made the kegs not fall😭
Hey, im new to Spelunky. Whats the advantage of entering this room? I don't understand why somebody would give away the ankh to do this in the first place?
@@Phylaxarus Thanks for the answer! I just made it to Abzu. What's the special item there? And do i have to kill the boss for it?
@@Phylaxarus Yeah, i did'nt had it 😂
I lost my Ankh to get there and then I fell to 1Hp while fighting the boss and left for the next level 😅
Next time i bring the Excalibur! Thanks my man!
Welcome to Spelunky :)
excellent video!
2 bomb paste does not work, I've tried it several times and every time it blows up everything
I don't know if you knew this or forgot to put it in but for the 3
bomb paste skip, if u have pitchers mitt you have to place it INWARDS. Just thought I'd mention because I heard to learn the hard way lol
What do you mean by inwards?
@@Star_Licker when you place the bombs on the ropes, instead of placing them away from the middle rope, you place the bombs towards it instead.
@@ajsucks6897 ohhh I see it now. The bombs are slightly to the right of the idol, so with the pitching glove going from the other side with push them slightly further and put them in the right spot
Tysm, was wondering why it didn’t work
I was just gonna do the 3 rope one but as soon as i did the ghost came...
and i died
The video by mezian ankh skips/saves shows a few skips that this video didnt
This is fantastic 👏
I didn't know you could line up the pasteless 4 bombs like that, nice. But do you know of an easy way to do it if you have pitchers mitt?
sadly i do not :(
One was found, rope one the tile left of the idol. The one it is half on, but you need 5 bombs not 4.
4 bombs, no paste method never works for me. I do it exactly as you say, and execute it perfectly. But yet, it never works.
Great video
thank you :)
Whenever I try doing the 4 bomb no paste skip the bombs knock each other out if the way and I die. Anyone know why? I’ve lost my good runs because of this.
very helpful thank you
no problem

Tried the power pack skip once, it exploded way too early, even though I was higher than your indication line.
The only time I got to skip was a hidden door
Every game is on the same version and there's crossplay. I've done every skip just fine
i forgot i had paste and just did the no paste method
Is there any reason the power pack skip wouldn't work with other backpacks, like the telepack/jetpack?
The other backpacks don't have as big an explosion I believe
Does powerpack skip also work with other exploding packs like jetpack and telepack?
There’s a different video that alleges those other items do not work
how do you align the 4 bomb no paste method with climbing gloves ?
Same question with pitcher's mitt 4 bombs no paste / paste
Climbing gloves don't affect bomb placement
@@bigmak7559 No indeed, they do however make you stick to walls, which when your entire setup relies on lining up by jumping on a wall poses a little problem
Very useful, thank you
Glad it could help!
For some reason the four bomb one never works for me and I don’t know why, it only ever drops one of the tnt crates
Wrong line up or you did 3
Or you had mitt (so still basically wrong alignment)
The speed you place the bombs also seems to matter. Really gotta spam that button
Does powerpack method still work after all patches? I can't seem to get it to
As far as I'm aware it should if you do it properly, not 100% sure though
Yes
Dropped the power pack into the lava. Didn’t work. Would be nice if someone would specify that there’s a difference between PC and Xbox one
PC and Xbox are the same, you just need to drop the power pack in the way I specified. Did you have the momentum and position it right?
I just tried the one bomb through technique and accidentally fell and died
Does 1 bombs paste not work with the pitcher's mitt?
2 bombs paste*
idk it probably does but I haven't tried it bc i don't use pitchers mitt
I tried 2 bombs paste several times with pitcher's mitt and it didn't work, it always left the inside powder keg, so I think it messes up the placement of the bombs a bit
Either 4 Bombs (No Paste) doesn't work anymore or I didn't place the bombs in quick enough succession.

No biggie, I still made it to 7-3 which is a personal achievement, considering I've only made it that far 3 times in the 150 hours I have in the game.
every way but no easyJet for the next few days
Does the 4 bomb skip lineup work if you have climbing gloves?
It should work fine
@@Pastryperson Interesting. Every time I've tried it with gloves the bombs were always slightly off
Me:*does 4 bomb skip correctly*
Game: Nuh uh *makes the powder keg explosion size x50*
Put 4 days into the game and still haven't beaten the hard ending because I skip kingu since i don't know anhk skip. Hopefully this helps
hopefully so, good luck on beating the hard ending
@@Pastryperson I've made it to Cosmic ocean solo now, but im still coming back for the skips cause i dont have them memorized, and no one seems to have a pitcher's mitt 4 bomb skip for some reason
paste one doesnt work :(
does the powerpack skip work from higher up?
Yes it works from any height above what I mentioned, just make sure it lands above a TNT box
I think i played with you once
if you see me as business pig or rusty boots on steam, say hi
Didnt work. There was a platform there which made the lava kill me even though I followed the guide exactly
I did the paste method.....and the Damn bomb on the left was half a centameter off.......... I am furious i failed this and olmic skip today
Ankh skip*
very cool
Sorry but that four bomb skip does not work.
i missed 💀
this shit never works
GG !!!
the first one didnt work and i did it perfectly, bombs lined up went in the exact area as you but all the blocks got destroyed. LIER
After a couple of days losing in the same way after doing exactly the same, I realized that this skip doesn't work with Pitcher's Mitt. Just tried it with no Mitt, still works. Maybe you had one equipped?
I always fail using the paste bomb method. It doesn't work for some reason.
I am Lonk
just bubble skip lmao
16
patchers mitt sucks
It's not working
