Safe
Notes:
- Don't forget to drop the barrel on the ground for Arich's last pattern (holding B -> Hold Down -> Release B)
Optimal
Notes:
- To properly achieve hits on Arich you'll want to fall straight down off the platform above so you won't clash your barrel with legs.
- For the second hit you'll need to jump after falling to land the hit properly on Arich.
- For the third and fourth hits you won't need to jump out of your fall but just fall and throw before landing.
- Grabbing the patch from underneath is the most optimal, to achieve this it's best to try and jump during the sound of him falling.
- Arich tends to have irregular patterns at times even with similar or same movement, so you'll have to adjust how you throw but sometimes you can't help the inevitable World 2 reset with this boss.
- to land hits 3 and 4 consistently drop straight down as normal. Start barrel throw as soon as Kiddies bottom hand crosses the boundary of the tree branch indicated
Tree branch highlighted
Almost to release point
Dixie backup
Notes:
- By doing that little hover at the top Arich will be baited into dropping down and instantly coming back up ending his spit ball phase.
- This is meant as a backup for when you lose kiddie but don't want to reset.
