0-S map for cowards

I've seen way to many of you in the discords who refuse to play 0-S, also known as secret mission 1, so if you're hiding from Something Wicked refer to this guide and grow an exoskeleton

Quick Guide

• reach blue skull
  
• ignore the cerberus statue it's marked for posterity
  
• take it to destination blue
  
• get red skull
  
• take it to destination red
  
• read the first testament and enjoy the jams

Cardinal direction 50,000 feet underground

You've surely noticed the key above that marks every bit of significance to the maze, so I'd hope I don't have to explain that in more detail

The maze is dark, that's as clear as anything else, but you can illuminate your surroundings using the skull keys and make them glow stronger by punching with the skulls.

The northwest corner of the map (that blue zone) is the lowest point of the map vertically, but you can climb up to the corner hallway just south of it by wall-jumping, you're also safe from Something Wicked down there.

Because of Something Wicked's spawn location and patrolling behavior, you're almost certain to encounter it just north of the raised intersection in the center of the map, it will be coming from the west side, just keep heading north and don't fall for the trap hallway heading east.

If you need a walk-me-through it, from spawn it's NENNWNNENEWWS^S
North to the blue skull, head out East and move North, continue North, then take West in the large room, North in the raised intersection and brace for Something Wicked, swiftly continue North, East at crossroad, and North again down the wide stairs, until you find the destination blue altar to the East, place the skull and await the red one, grab it and quickly move all the way West to the blue corner pictured on the northwest of the map and jump Up, moving down South to the red skull altar.

Something wicked this way comes.

Once you've laid eyes upon such a sinister passage, there's no time to waste, Something Wicked will begin to patrol the maze and, should you fall into its sights, hound you down until either your life, or the sightline, is ended.

You aren't clueless however, you know Something Wicked is close from the constant low buzz it emanates as it move through the maze, and you know it has found you if you hear its ghastly scree.

Something Wicked may be threatening, but it's not unstoppable.
When it has found you, you should raise your fist and ready your gun, focus where the drone comes instead of running yourself into a corner.

You're on short time now to take a shot at the Wickedness yet to reveal itself, when it comes close, quickly back away to delay and get a straighter shot.

Don't celebrate too early, eldritch horrors don't tend to leave for long. As soon as that shot hit, the Something Wicked already resumed its search

Something Wicked has two spawning points on the map, the first one is at destination red, and the second is at the Cerberus statue, it will always chose the one furthest from you to begin or resume its search after a successful shot, then it will move through the maze from there.

There are some places in the maze Something Wicked cannot access, these aren't the marked "Invalid Space", but are just areas where the ceiling is too low to fit the Something.

VERY IMPORTANT

AS SOON AS YO UPLACE THE RED SKULL DOWN YOU MUST ABSOLUTELY calm the hell down, Something Wicked has no power over you anymore, so take your time to read The First Testament and drop down the exit chute, or maybe head back and explore if you think you're tough enough to brave the dark yet

cheatin, assists, and technical notes

in case you're still in need of just that little extra boost to get through 0-S
don't worry, no one's gonna judge you for using assists in an unranked secret mission.

instakill :(

Something Wicked does 1000 damage on contact, setting major assist>Damage Taken to 9% or lower is enough to survive at least one encounter with the beast.

its dark :(

Well, currently there isn't anything on this right now, but fullbright mode will be implemented eventually so just hang tight!

it's too fast!

major assist>Game Speed, set as you please from 50-100

what if I wanted something...stronger

the cheat menu might help, might not help.
cheat menu is activated by pressing up up down down left right left right B A on your keyboard

If you have the knuckleblaster arm, you can go to the skull pedestals ahead of time and, on your way, use the knuckleblaster arm to leave a trail of shotgun shells to follow for when you go back through with the skulls. It's helpful for learning the layout/where you need to go on the first few attempts (assuming you die) if you're willing to take the time to do it :3

instructions unclear i spawned minos prime

Also, if you have the Whiplash, you can illuminate the hallway or surroundings by throwing the grapple down the hall. You can also hit Something Wicked this way, which has the same effect of hitting it with the pistol (making it teleport.)

I'm sorry engie, but I just pissed my pants 💀 this game was not supposed to be scary what is this ;_;

[zynkode]

i love you marry me thank yuo for making this

[random_player691]

Also using whiplash and skull works it can both get rid of wicked and illuminate the area your whiplash is going
