Well, I suck at "coil"jumps :(

[Shadders]

Hello, can someone help me please?

I'm at the part of the tutorial where your meant to take a jump and then hold left shift before hitting the ground in order to "coil" up.

Every single effing time I break my legs. How's it meant to be done? It seems to make no difference if I hold left-shift right after I take the jump, midway or as I'm about to hit the ground.

If the carries on, I'll have to go back to playing somthing easier, like Dark Souls :)

Never mind, practice makes perfect as they say :)

I always coil right after I jump, and it seems to work okay. The big thing is that it does seem to shorten your jump a bit - not sure if this is factual or if it's just the visual effect of the coil.

What did you do to fix it? I'm having the same problem, can't seem to make it and I've tried countless times.

Ok it seems like it needs to be literally a split second before you land, really tough to pull off

Coil right after you jump. It pulls your legs above the wire. Sig, sounds like your problem was rolling.
