Cirromon Caverns: Bubbling sprouts are bugged on PC?

[PsychroPhoenix]

These things go completely berserk on me, triggering 6, 7, 8 times in rapid succession when I'm standing next to them not even moving. I thought the sword said they react to movement? Then why do they emit a nonstop stream of poison when I'm not even moving?
Their triggering seems to be 100% random and it makes that area way too hard because sometimes you get chain-knocked around like mad because they trigger like crazy.

[Enfys Ellezard]

Yup, they're random.

So have fun with that roll spam in that cave.

The blue bubble heals you. The game never told me that lol

I think they are programmed to hurt you in match of your walking speed, so doing some jump, dash, air storm should give better chance than just walking forward constantly. Pack up some good food too, you should be fine.

[An Association of One Egoist]

Oh man, the bubble sprouts are absolutely BRUTAL on hardcore mode.

[Zilashkee]

bubble sprout into bubble srpout into spikes. fun times. That and getting stuck in a corner while being constantly rained on. They wouldn't be nearly so annoying if it weren't for the rediculous knockback. Only advice I have is to keep in mind that you can get through with the evade dash.

[TITOMOSQUITO187]

I've just been using Dash, but yeah I've been stunlocked a few times where I couldn't get out and got poisoned over and over.

Good to know the blue heals you though.

I can attest to that they arent that bad on the way down but coming back up in the opposite direction? good luck.

I didn't know that. I always evade the blue bubbles. :/

Getting out of the caves is absolute insanity because of the bubbling spouts. Holy crap.

2 Choices.

Air dodge your way back
Or Teleporting crystal.

Teleporting crystals are pretty cheap anyway.

Only for a miniscule amount. They don't knock you back, though.

you have to be at a save point to teleport, which does limit the usefulness of the teleporting crystals. Though it is what I used to get out halfway at least.

I was loving this game. Had no flaws to really pick on it...
Then i met the sprouts....
*sigh* i have died more to them in 10mins than i have the rest of the game on hardcore...
I would not mind if there was some kind of system in them... but they are just random..

[Terriko]

I beat the game on hardcore and i have had no trouble what-so ever on teh bubble sprouts. I don't know why everyone is having trouble.

[BoinKlasik]

Its irrelevant if you had trouble, the point is they act incorrectly on the PC version.

[Axel Daemon]

Oh so they're actually not like this on the Xbox version? Interesting. I found their erratic behavior kinda fun though. cause it really tests your reaction and nerves and well... luck. Cause in some parts there's like 4-5 of them clumped together, and your dodge roll just lands you right underneath one.. that THEN SETS OFF. lol
