Eel
Avoid eel bites.
To get this achievement, you need to survive 2 eel encounters without getting bit.

The Eel have 2 types of attack animation:

1. Telegraphed Attacks.
⠀⠀
⠀⠀


2. Snap Attacks.
⠀⠀
⠀⠀


Do not panic!

You only need to dash telegraphed attacks. Do not spam the dash button, as you will have enough reaction time to dodge it.

For this achievement, you need to dash through all telegraphed attacks.

⠀⠀
If you dash too early or too late, you'll get bit and need to restart the encounter.
1st Encounter



Start on Chapter 4: Checkpoint 2 and finish the Turtle section.


⠀⠀


The Eel will attack from the left side with this attack sequence:
Snap - Telegraphed - Telegraphed - Snap - Telegraphed - Telegraphed (Medium Eel)





1. Telegraphed Attacks.
⠀⠀


2. Snap Attacks.
⠀⠀


If you failed to dash in time, quit the game and select continue from the main menu. You will start just before the statue.

2nd Encounter



After the dark cave section, the Eel will return to attack you.

The first attack is guaranteed to hit you, but it doesn't count for the achievement.
⠀⠀ 


⠀⠀


The Eel will attack from below with this attack sequence:
Snap - Telegraphed - Snap - Telegraphed - Snap - Snap - Snap





1. Telegraphed Attacks.
⠀⠀


2. Snap Attacks.
⠀⠀


If you failed to dash in time, quit the game and select continue from the main menu. You will start just before the dark cave.





⠀⠀



⠀⠀

You will get the achievement after the turtle stops moving.

Good luck!

I accidentally got this achievement on my first run without knowing anything about it. Just spam dashed my way through

god this was so helpful, thank you. It took me about 4 restarts before i looked up this guide, knowing the bite pattern and remembering that the game moves through the sequence for you helped me focus. great guide :demoticon:

The mouth wiggle was the most helpful tip, as someone in the comments mentioned :Tokyoyay:

In other words, you dash while it closes? Don't do it preemptively?

When the eel is about to bite, it "wiggles" its mouth for a moment, you notice this movement in the gifs you added. That moment (when the eel mouth "wiggles") is the moment you should press jump

Very good guide for this achivement. A very good tip I would give is, if you are having problems with dodging the telegraphed attacks do this, every time the eal opens its mouth dodge and then spam dodge you will evade the attack at the exact time dodge works again, it worked very well for me the moment I found out this trick I got the achivement first try.

I got this achievement very easier and faster than I would do by myself, because you did this guide. Thank you very much! :)
