i always hated plague knights stage because it has those bad bits where its dark and you need lightning to light up the platforms

its pretty tough in the new expansion, cuz your still getting used to movement as plague knight and arent really sure where youll land even with the lights on

NG+ -
-you take double damage
-half as many checkpoints (theres still always a checkpoint right before the boss)
-nothing drops healing ever gently caress this
-during the boss rush at the end, dinner plates alternate between full heals and bombs

NG+ for shovel knight was too hard for me, and I knew I wasn't up to the task for Plague so I haven't even bothered. I want to watch a speed run because it will probably be sick

I played new game plus up until the boss rush, which does not give you any healing items in shovel knights mode at least. I had one healing thing from the trouple king and I got all the way to polar knight who was the final guy and i got instant killed.

I don't understand what goo armor does. Does it bounce you off a wall if you burst into it? That sounds like a really bad idea

Bursting around is fun as hell this DLC is so good
