Knights of the Round (SNES) - Stage 6 Birdman Despawn manipulation
0So, there's a lot of ways to do this. All seem to include 1 drop on the first screen off the Barbs or Soldier, and then quick scrolling into the next, or forcing specific amounts of spawns off barrels.
Basically, the easiest ways to trigger it are:
1. You get 1 drop off the first 3 - scroll as fast as you can till the screen locks and you should get it. Can be a a little hard to get the required full dashes. If you mess up and don't get full dashes, you can try cutting the second barrel on the next screen to recover, just don't take the treasure. If you don't get a drop, revert to point 2.
2. You get no drops. Cut the top barrel and don't take the treasure, scroll to the next top barrel, cut it and immediately dash through it without picking up the treasure. Dash as fast as you can till the screen locks and you should get it. If you get hit by the soldier on the second screen before cutting the second barrel, revert to point 3.
3. You get no drops. Cut the top barrel and don't take the treasure, scroll to the next top barrel, cut it, then cut the treasure. If its 4 peices, take all but 1 and scroll as fast as you can. If it's 3 pieces take none and, scroll as fast as you can. This way is much more lenient on timing.
More than anything else, timing is key. If you don't scroll lock the screen fast enough, the game will catch up and spawn the birdman here, no matter what strat you use. There's also plenty of other ways to do this, some of which I try to demonstrate in the video, but more than likely they're slower than these ways, or more prone to barrel RNG. That first barrel is capable of spawning treasure that cuts into 6 pieces which seems to kill your chances at a despawn.
On the whole, this is probably one the easier despawns because of opportunity for recovery and the fact that the only despawn target is the Birdman. I can't really force the game to despawn anything else here.
Most of this video is covering my bases and just seeing what's easy to do for me RTA. It's probably a lot easier for faster folks.
