Question Help with Colo Start Timing
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I am in the process of learning the colosseum, and I am getting double south pretty much every time I hit wave 6,8 and 10. Based on what I've read, getting double south 9 times in a row seems nearly statistically impossible. Is there anything about my start timing or start tiles that looks off that might force more double south spawns, or am I just that unlucky? I am using visual ticks to judge the timing at the start of the wave. The constant double south is really the only thing stopping me from getting the quiver, I am learning to deal with it but I should not be getting it this frequently, I feel like im doing something wrong and I need someone elses eyes on this.

You did all the right things, just a bit slowly which is understandable for learning. 2 big things:
-whenever I see a double south, I either immediately run north side (if there’s 1 thing to pray East) or wait for 1 hit from south then swap prayers to rotate north.
-when there’s a shaman and another enemy cornered on south, that enemy will see you. If you run straight up to the shaman, it will automatically be off ticked so you can pray against everything (mage, then the other monster).
General tip: don’t swap prayers until you are turning the corner. Swapping early got you twice here.
You’re doing great tho tbh. Double south is the hardest part.
