TIPS/NOTES

1: When doing midboss make sure to double jump directly on the rejuv and at the apex of your jump, press wall to make your wall horizontal instead of vertical. This makes sure that anyone who contests the rejuv gets silenced. 2: You can't swap wraith out of her tp animation anymore so don't waste swap for it. 3: T3 swap has an alternate cast, sometimes this makes the wall cast but not swap when doing swap -> wall, you need to reduce the time it takes to press and hold the alternate cast or change/remove the alternate cast bind to fix this 4: When going bomb build level T3 bomb before T3 swap, for gun build T3 swap is better before bomb 5: With T3 swap you can reliably steal the rejuvinator, lurk above the mid pit then when the rejuv is about to drop, swap them to the room above the mid pit.
