Tips & Tricks for Content Drop #1 Bounties

These are some hacks I found to make the Bounties added by Content Drop #0 much easier and quicker to complete. I hope you'll find some tips you have not yet completed. This is work in progress, some things will be missing.

I am late to the party and there are many great videos and tricks and exploits on how many people got these things much faster than me. I might or might not continue this guide, depends on wether I find unique information and if there is a genuine interest in this guide. If you need it, please let me know trough the comments. Otherwise I will go at this slowly and maybe not even finish it.

Rise of the Phoenix

To begin with, you should either play the run once or watch BladeMaster's run of this challenge. It's extremely unlikely you will do it on first try and you should get a rough idea of the obstacles Dying Light throws at you in this timed parkour challenge.

This is BladeMaster's video:

Which brings me to our first little trick:

#1

Using the Pyza suit to cross the gap at the trainyard.
As you have seen, BladeMaster used the pyza suit's glide after vaulting over the first toad.
If you jump down onto the stationary train, it might take you a few valuable seconds to climb back up on the other side.
Alternatively, you can tackle the first toad, drop onto the train and vault over the second, landing back on the second rail.

#2

Dropping from ziplines onto buses. When dropping on a bus roof from a zipline, you want to let go as late as possible in order to avoid damage and a landing animation. Do not roll.

#3

Getting on the Motel roof. In order to skip the "pulling up" animation, just walk a bit to the right on the railing before jumping on the roof. This gives you better flow and saves around half a second.

#4

Scaling the building quickly.
As you might have seen in BladeMaster's video, the foolproof and simple way to climb the building is to tic-tac up the wall, jump onto a balcony. Then, facing the balcony, stand on the railing, look straight up and start ledge-climbing. As soon as you are standing on the railing again, press "S" once to avoid bumping into the ceiling.

I have personally made a video about how I scaled the building, a bit more sophisticated, harder to pull off, but also a bit faster. Here it is:

So basically, you get onto the balconies and jump to the next floor after vaulting.
