is this the way to go next after SB ?


edit: need a lil hint to get thru there ;) pls
Yes indeedie.
Oh no Card is beating me! Those springball passages you tell me about are way to hard to find. The only one I've found is at:
wrecked ship, and that only leads to lower norfair, where I shouldn't be going yet...


I've also searched the majority of Brinstar and Norfair.  :|
You're still missing Varia?
It's in WS


And do you have the other beam yet? If you searched the majority of Brinstar then you should've perhaps found it.

Lies! I don't have the springball. So methinks you're beating me. Anyway, I found a springball passage for ya.

Its in the area where you get grapple and there is the reflected floor. Head left and you'll be underwater with some of the enemies that shoot spikes.


Now where do I go? I have pbs, but I'm completely confused about where to go next.

You can leave Norfair after that and head back up to Brinstar. After SB, there's nothing else you can get down there for now.


I can't seem to escape the vertically large red room with lots of fog, did I miss the ice beam or something?
Anywhere, everywhere
Are you required to short charge in the gauntlet-like area on the easy version? Cause I fucking hate short charge. Everything else is fine, but short charging= hatred.

Yeah I found it right before I read your post. :D

Edit: this is one super annoying puzzle

Yep. Check the elevator room that led to Norfair.

When you grapple the blocks in the said puzzle after the springball passage, the game freezes. It tends to do it most while diagonally grappling.

Edit: The monsters afterward are worse... I savestated with 20 health, thinking I would get my item next, but instead a giant puzzle of pirate hunting awaits, most of which I can't even kill...

Edit:Wow
I don't even need to find spazer  8-)

If you mean the Shakatool puzzle, DMantra was sort of aware of that I think. He fixed that room for the easy ver because its tedious as hell in the hard ver, but he loved it so much he had to keep it unchanged for hard.

All I found was some super missile blocks above me... and I don't have supers.
The elevator that leads to norfair. As in the one that is above norfair

Wait...it was just that one beam correct? Not the one that is related to the ocean's ____?

and horizontal bomb jump is NECESSARY?
The ocean's crabs?

And didn't you hbj to get past spore spawn and to the Dachora room?
umm no I didn't hbj at any point in time ever. I finally found varia also (I somehow missed your hint)

I was pretty sure hbj was required after sporespawn. did you just complete some perfect wall jump to the ledge?

Can you post a screenshot of the said room? I don't remember anymore, and I am wayyyy too far away to check

VERY cool "turning on the lights" thing in that room :D
I'm running a poll: how many of you got the taunt-tank? You know, the e-tank under the bridge at the entrance to Eldridge. Be honest.

I did!

edit: Ahem. Dmantra, you baked me a pie with hbj even though you know I'm allergic? For shame. Now I have to take a nice 24% speed pill to cope with the swelling.

That was gettable?

In other news, awhile ago, I just got what I've dubbed The Tank. It's gotta be the hardest item pickup to get in the game. Pic very related.

Are you playing easy? My the tank is an etank...or is the missile some sort of clue.

Edit: waiiiiiiiiiittttt just a minute. DO YOU NEED BLUESUIT  Evil or Very Mad

Yep. Although not in the way you'd think.

I've played both vers and yes its an e-tank in hard. However, there's no way I'm going to backtrack through tedious cliffhangan rooms to look for item pickups in hard, so I'm doing that in easy.

Pay attention to the configuration of the SB blocks in the pic. Even if you had the bluesuit, you wouldn't be able to use it to get through there.
Um... So I worked very hard to get there without springball, only to find I need the damn wave beam too? This is in the landing site; is whatever that gate guards any good? AKA, worth going back through the trouble after I find the wave beam and springball?

Oh, and I still have no idea where to go next. Any hints about springball's location would be greatly appreciated.
