Trial of Skillness

anyone done trail of skillness im stuck can't get up the third platforming challenge

I assume that's the one with opposing walls with anti cling material just bcause this took me a while. essentially, with momentum you can do a 'high jump' that bounces you more at a 45 degree angle off of the walls. someone can probably tell you better exactly how to do this. for me, i went-


full run, jumped about at the fire, had stick at 45 degree up/right toward wall, then up/left, and back to up/right on bounce.


that's not super useful but hopefully this helps-when done right, you should only touch each wall *once*, and immediately bounce off on a high arc.


i tried forever trying to grab wall, hop up, launch off, repeat on other side (two touches per wall) and seemingly no matter how well you do that you'll never get over the wall. but once you can do that high jump bounce it's a breeze.

I was tearing my hair out over this one, thank you so much. I think what it is, is that when you're running if you time your next jump immediately as you touch the ground or wall it preserves your momentum and lets you do a high jump. You have to keep holding the run button down, and the timing has to be perfect. I had no idea you could do this.

Thank you so much

Same here. Was quite surprised.

So @troysch1 - also thanks from me!

What's the use though, the Trial of Rockets is insane anyway... o_O

How much trials you must done? All the Trials or pick the game random trials and you must only done 3/5 or so?

I have my Problems with the Jump Trial the one where you must jump on a Platform that destroys himself in less then 1 sec.

I'm starting to doubt this is possible on a KB/M.

Managed the first one, however the second one (with the overhang and grab-proof wall to <--) doesn't seem possible without a controller.

Love to be proved wrong.

I did it using a rocketjump like shown in this video:

Took me a short amount of time to figure out that jump. Luckily im a bit of a problem solver so it did not take me too long.

Also as an alternative... This approach is a bit unorthodox but you CAN use the Grenade Launcher to rocket jump. Make sure you have molotov vaccination though. The blast from the grenade (Or three if you have that upgrade) can increase the height of your jump a bit. Assuming you get the timing correct.
