Every time I get the qilin, some mystical rube Goldberg chain reaction of events happens killing it, and very often, me. I was literally just before tiamat, at the exit to the 4rd level, and there was a shop selling the dog. I got off qilin for one second to buy the dog when a spark trap hurled it at me, igniting my jetpack, and killing me, qilin, the dog, and the shopkeeper instantly.
If you want to make vlad’s fight easier than find the key in the first volcano level and than find the locked door in the same level. Doing this will bring a guy with a crossbow into vlad’s layer and he can shoot vlad once you engage in the fight almost instantly
I had a really vivid apocalyptic dream that was exactly like the sunken city years ago. I was in a city like tokyo 3 where all the buildings could go down into the ground for whatever reason, but the problem was they were going down into pink sludge, which was composed of a mixture of bodies and trash. Now combine that with the cities failing economy and the buildings leaks, if you didn't get a high apartment and the building submerged, you were fucked.
@Jonny Ace HEY. NO SWEARING ON MY COMMENTS! THERE IS KIDS ON CZcams AND WHAT HAPPENS IF THEY SEE THIS? THEY SAY hey mom I learned a new word it’s sayed like THE BAD WORD. SO BE CLEAN AND DO NOT SWEAR IN MY COMMENTS Btw trolley please delete all the inappropriate comments in your videos
So step by step: 1. Get the eye 👁 Optional: free Van Horsing 2. Get the crown 👑 Optional: get vlad’s cape 3. Get the ankh in olmec’s room 4. Get the sword in 4-2 🗡 5. When in 4-3, go all the way down under the lava. Take the golden idol and let the lava kill you. 6. Go up and kill abzu and make sure you have got the tablet of destiny. 7. Go to 6-2. Optional: Grab the clover to get some extra time. ☘️ 8. Find a door in 6-2 and grab the idol fitting the description of tablet of destiny in your journal. 9. Go to 6-3. Qilin will spawn. 10. Once in 6-4 , the boss level, fly all the way up using Qilin. 11. You can find Hundun in 7-4. Optional: shoot Hundun in the eye with the bow of the Moon challenge to go to Pasific Ocean.
Btw for a high score run you should probably go jungle --> Temple of Anubis, this way you can keep the udjat eye and also go to the city of gold, though to get to Duat, which is the equivalent of Abzu, you lose your weapon/backpack, so I advise dropping a jetpack or something off at Waddler's in 3-1 and picking it back up in 5-1. And if you choose to go to Vlad's castle, in 2-1 Volcana you can rescue Van Horsing, he is in a locked door, and he will show up to beat Vlad's ass for you.
Unless theres a block that spawns blocking his way, if that happens (which can but should only happen rarely) you can just pick up van horsings arrow and throw it at vlad for a oneshot. Idk if other bows/crossbows oneshot him aswell of if its just Van Horsings arrow but yeah thats how it be
@@gamesux420 every arrow kills every vampire in one hit as a reference to how shooting a stake into a vampire's heart is the only way to kill them for good
@@Chromeno I believe it has to be an unbreakable arrow (blue one) or fired from a bow. I've thrown a red arrow at a vamp and seen them get hit by arrow traps and live
Easier way #1: using a ball and chain you can use a 1-4 checkpoint to get into vlads castle. Easier way #2: if you got a teleporter when you went to omlec, use 2 bombs in the far right corner where the ladders are. There is a secret door that leads to that slime guy, once you are there teleport to the ankh
trolleycartwings here’s a tip, teleporter and jetpack was what I used to do it. And also I recently got to 6-3 no gold again in 5:55 but I died because fire damage and jetpack. It hurt
You could do all of this but if you’re lazy and/or you have all the Journal entries just grab a jetpack or a hoverpack and some ropes and skip the entire questline
You can also go to jungle and get the hedjet from the black market instead of vlad’s crown, and instead of going to tide pool you can go to temple then go to the city of gold with the scepter in hand, once in the city of gold sacrifice yourself to a kali altar (you can only sac yourself if you have the ankh), once you sac yourself you will be in Duat where you will fight Osiris and get the tablet of destiny, then proceed with the rest of the tutorial.
I know this is a sunken city tutorial, but you can drop excaliber off at wadlers on 5-1 and pick it back up for the sun challenge on 7-1 to make it super easy.
I poisoned the chicken head and waited then it died, but the snake head is still alive, I kept waiting and nothing happened, I guess the poison method only works for 1 head, unless you poisoned both with 2 different arrows...
Fact: You dont need to go to volcana or Tide pool if you prefer the other worlds then heres my guide 1:Get Udjat Eye 2:Go to jungle 3:Wait for the udjat eye to bleep in 1 of the 4 levels 4:Get the headjet either by buying or stealing 5:Get the ankh 6:Go to Temple 7:On 4-1 kill anubis and take his septer 8: On 4-2 find a gold door and while having the headjet and holding the septer your now in the city of gold 9:Find the alter and then as long as you have the ankh sacrifise your self 10:Kill Othris in duat 11:Get to neo Babylon while there in 6-2 there will be a back level with vase open your journal and check the one for tablet of destiny 12:Find the one that matches the description 13:If you choose correct it will open in 6-3 it will hatch a quillin keep him safe till tiamat 14:Fly above tiamat and be careful not do die via spark trap once there rat face will be there at a door go throught the door and go up the ship 15: Congrats you're now at suken city my only tip to you is watch out for 3 things 1:Regeneration block they will crush you or your items if on it when they regenerate 2:Poison traps they will end your run especially on 6-4 due there being no damsel to heal thus being on a timer to beat hundun 3:Blue frog because BLUE FROG OP i will never forgive them for spelunky HD
Every time i try to get there I can’t because DEREK Added that pain in the *bum* that is the laser field Derek just remove it it’s completely unnecessary
unfortunately it is, as without it all you'd need are climbing gloves, jetpack, and/or ropes to get up. You can still do it without qilin, and there will always be a way, but removing the laser field makes it trivially easy to skip everything
Today it was first time i reached sunken city in a non seeded run, i could have defeated hundun cuz i had many bombs and paste, but i got poisoned in 7-2 and i only had 11 hp 😭
hi trolleycartwings! I have been writing to you with the purpose of proposing an idea, I came a few days ago watching your videos and I think you have an audience that speaks Spanish and there are some who understand English which is my case but there are others who do not, and I think how you realize or I suppose you have already thought about it, the community to improve tips and others are in English and I think that is difficult for us who speak Spanish, I propose the idea of downloading your videos, commenting on them in Spanish and thus making you promo and not only you but people like utashio, jackhasgames,xana gear and others can reach the public that speaks Spanish I am attentive to your answer!
Hey, I'm doing the poison strat on Hundun right now and I think something's gone wrong. I hit the snake head directly with a poison arrow, but only the snake head looks poisoned. Is the bird head poisoned as well or only the snake?
Right i have a massive apology in case you failed or died in that run. But in the video the other head actually got poisoned coming up. So i thought it was both heads got poisoned by one arrow. I am sorry but it was the coincidence that made it happen in the video.
Might sound dumb but how do i use quilin? I did all the steps until the lasers with him before u get into the sunken city but eveyrtime i use him he falls off of me and he falls to the water do u know how to do this?
Wow. I can't believe I actually beat this guy then thought "maybe I should whip his eye", not realising there were spikes right below me. That's right, I actually managed to kill myself after defeating the boss. I am totally not really really really fucking upset about this right now.
Two questions, why doesn't the ghost spawn on the Hundun fight, and in theory, couldn't you kill the lady before you fly to the Sunken City and take her infinite poison arrow crossbow?
no - you can skip Qilin's ascent with a jetpack by either using a line of burned 1-segment ropes straight up the middle above Tiamat, or by jetpacking over to the side walls (right is easier due to clockwise spark traps), where there's horizontal ground you can use to recharge your jetpack.
@@gloverelaxis i meant more so that i was unsure if you needed to get the tablet every time. or if you could just get it once. i now know that yes you need the tablet every time to get Quilin.
Are you talking about 4-3 just before abzu because if you are yes you can. That is the only known and possible way of keeping the ankh after latest patcb
You don’t need the kapala (skull cup) for this run but it just helps i guess. You get it by sacrificing two damsels. (Dog/cat/hamster). If you anger kali it will harder to get.
16 favor points, damsel give 8 (worth one gift from kali) and most live enemies are worth 2, and shopkeepers, and yang and all other npcs are worth 6, but it’s very hard to sacrifice them whilst they’re still alive
This video is how to defeat hundun no matter what loot you have!
If you already know how to reach the sunken city skip to 7:12 for the method.
I give up ive been trting for like eight hrs i just want classic guy
Isn't there an easier way? I have been trying to reach the sunken city for about a month!
Great guide!
Are both of them still poisoned if only one of them is hit with a poison arrow?
Thanks for the walkthrough. I finally managed to get to sunken city... and then immediately died by getting crushed by the bubbles.
Every time I get the qilin, some mystical rube Goldberg chain reaction of events happens killing it, and very often, me. I was literally just before tiamat, at the exit to the 4rd level, and there was a shop selling the dog. I got off qilin for one second to buy the dog when a spark trap hurled it at me, igniting my jetpack, and killing me, qilin, the dog, and the shopkeeper instantly.

or just have the best item in the game (skeleton key)
step 1: try to beat the mines naajajaj
Sunken city has really realistic eyes and mouths and it’s really disturbing and disgusting
I think the hundun soundtrack is the most sinister music in spelunky 2
I had a really vivid apocalyptic dream that was exactly like the sunken city years ago. I was in a city like tokyo 3 where all the buildings could go down into the ground for whatever reason, but the problem was they were going down into pink sludge, which was composed of a mixture of bodies and trash.

trolleycartwings I think the dark level sunken city soundtrack is the darkest

@@creeperguy123ontiktok8 what do you mean
So step by step:
1. Get the eye 👁
Optional: free Van Horsing
2. Get the crown 👑
Optional: get vlad’s cape
3. Get the ankh in olmec’s room
4. Get the sword in 4-2 🗡
5. When in 4-3, go all the way down under the lava. Take the golden idol and let the lava kill you.
6. Go up and kill abzu and make sure you have got the tablet of destiny.
7. Go to 6-2.
Optional: Grab the clover to get some extra time. ☘️
8. Find a door in 6-2 and grab the idol fitting the description of tablet of destiny in your journal.
9. Go to 6-3. Qilin will spawn.
10. Once in 6-4 , the boss level, fly all the way up using Qilin.
11. You can find Hundun in 7-4.
Optional: shoot Hundun in the eye with the bow of the Moon challenge to go to Pasific Ocean.
spot on
@@trolleycartwings So you need a hired hand to get the bow and Excalibur past Abzu and Kingu?
Ah wait no, Waddler, right
STEP 1 TRY TO TO BEAT THE DWELLING
It seems easyer than it is.
Ah yes, the Pasific Ocean.
If you stand in the hands of the statue next to to the red door in the sunken city for about 10 seconds you get 4 hp.
Btw for a high score run you should probably go jungle --> Temple of Anubis, this way you can keep the udjat eye and also go to the city of gold, though to get to Duat, which is the equivalent of Abzu, you lose your weapon/backpack, so I advise dropping a jetpack or something off at Waddler's in 3-1 and picking it back up in 5-1. And if you choose to go to Vlad's castle, in 2-1 Volcana you can rescue Van Horsing, he is in a locked door, and he will show up to beat Vlad's ass for you.
Does jungle have more money than volcana? I find it easier to skip using the udjat eye there by using bombs and the crates in the ground
Temple is pain but definitely the cooler and more lucrative route
You do need to find the black market in the jungle and buy the hedjet if you wanna go through the Abzu route however
Udjat eye is more special than I thought
If you have hard time killing vlad i recomend in 2-1 find key and free that hunter because he will one shot vlad for u
NetherStar26 yes save van horsing
Unless theres a block that spawns blocking his way, if that happens (which can but should only happen rarely) you can just pick up van horsings arrow and throw it at vlad for a oneshot.

i only have to unlock the black knight now. my current goal is eggplant city, i was super close yesterday.
trolleycartwings black knight?
Ev Er ninja i mean sorry. I’ve unlocked it and releasing guide tommorow
trolleycartwings ok can’t wait 😁
Ev Er thank you but just a heads up, it requires getting to the sunken city 😳
sunken city is terrifying, made out of human body parts and it makes me feel crawling
So this is where the frogs went.......
Easier way #1: using a ball and chain you can use a 1-4 checkpoint to get into vlads castle.
Easier way #2: if you got a teleporter when you went to omlec, use 2 bombs in the far right corner where the ladders are. There is a secret door that leads to that slime guy, once you are there teleport to the ankh
I knew how to get there but i still watched anyways lmao
Also i really like that characters rope hook, maybe ill start using him
Thanks! New upload coming soon for how to get the true crown. A lot of people may already know but hopefully they still watch.
Little Jay best character, the looking up and crouching animations are the best
Excellent video..well done. Explained this great
I still watch these videos even though I already have the platinum trophy, btw maybe do a guide on the low scorer achievement?
I haven’t even completed it myself but if i complete it i will upload it
trolleycartwings here’s a tip, teleporter and jetpack was what I used to do it. And also I recently got to 6-3 no gold again in 5:55 but I died because fire damage and jetpack. It hurt
You've completed every achievement already?? I can't even get to sunken city!
holy shit how are people so good at this game already
Don’t swear there is kids on CZcams
Never underestimate the power of *the spelunky player.*
@@nitroflux_o1040 im scared
You can actually use the hedjit interchangeably with the crown.
Meaning the Hedjet lets you get Excalibur and the Crown will allow you into the City of Gold?
@@camodious Yeah
Hpw do u gte the hedjet
@@dinoaurus1 black market
Everything is interchangeable
You earned a sub keep up the good content
You could do all of this but if you’re lazy and/or you have all the Journal entries just grab a jetpack or a hoverpack and some ropes and skip the entire questline

the only reason i wanna go this ending so i can play the 8 bit spelunky guy
I got knocked into lava :( before entering the boss in the tide pool
The problem isn't know how to go,the problem is survive with qlin,that have just 3hp
Only have to get through 1 level with him
Tip: carry the qilin. Don’t ride it.
@@papapiggie6697 yes
This was so helpful but I HAD TO RESTART LIKE 7 TIMES AND I GOT TO THE SUNKEN CITY im so mad rn i might cry.
I mostly die just after the drill part. There’s always too much lava and it drips on to me and kills me
Did you kill the snake by hitting it with a bomb instead of blowing it?
I poisoned the chicken head and waited then it died, but the snake head is still alive, I kept waiting and nothing happened, I guess the poison method only works for 1 head, unless you poisoned both with 2 different arrows...
Yeah I think they patched it :/
Fact: You dont need to go to volcana or Tide pool if you prefer the other worlds then heres my guide
1:Get Udjat Eye
2:Go to jungle
3:Wait for the udjat eye to bleep in 1 of the 4 levels
4:Get the headjet either by buying or stealing
5:Get the ankh
6:Go to Temple
7:On 4-1 kill anubis and take his septer
8: On 4-2 find a gold door and while having the headjet and holding the septer your now in the city of gold
9:Find the alter and then as long as you have the ankh sacrifise your self
10:Kill Othris in duat
11:Get to neo Babylon while there in 6-2 there will be a back level with vase open your journal and check the one for tablet of destiny
12:Find the one that matches the description
13:If you choose correct it will open in 6-3 it will hatch a quillin keep him safe till tiamat
14:Fly above tiamat and be careful not do die via spark trap once there rat face will be there at a door go throught the door and go up the ship
15: Congrats you're now at suken city my only tip to you is watch out for 3 things
1:Regeneration block they will crush you or your items if on it when they regenerate
2:Poison traps they will end your run especially on 6-4 due there being no damsel to heal thus being on a timer to beat hundun
3:Blue frog because BLUE FROG OP i will never forgive them for spelunky HD
OK so this Ninja Dirk will be a FKNG Pain to get...
6:40 be like flappy bird
Frogs are powerful lives that lives outside of the universe. Not created by tiamat
you make it look so easy ):
Side note: If you want to get the excalibur without going to Volcana, you can buy the Hedjet in the black market for 40000.
You have to poisen both now
I made it all the way to abzu but went through the exit by accident.....
Same :/
Very demoralizing lol

it doesn’t poison both heads
3:39 your a monster

Had perfect run Jetpack shotgun was about to go down the drill bit it went through a pool of lava and a bat knocked me into it Ffs
