NEVER Miss Power Bounce AGAIN!!

The 4th bounce of Power Bounce (and Multibonk) in the Thousand Year Door Remake is frame perfect, nerfing the badge since it's so difficult to pull off that bounce...or is it? I'll show you how to be way, WAY more consistent with Power Bounce and Multibonk in the TTYD Remake and become a master!

The frame perfect is evil.

[@peco595]

Deserved really, power bounce is definitely broken and always has been This way you still are likely to at least get twice as many jumps as normal with the possibility of more. Still really good, but not nearly as broken

[@reason9262]

Truthfully, I had a feeling the timing was somehow inconsistent. I would be trying to practice Power Bounce against the Battle Master, and he would keep saying "Too slow" on the fourth bounce even though as far as I could tell, my timing was exactly the same. Then, on the fifth bounce, he would sometimes be saying "Too fast" because I was still using the timing from the fourth bounce. It's a good thing he exists, otherwise we might've been confused about the timing for weeks to come.

[@poochycosme]

The master saying "too early" or "too late" really helped me because I heard of the frame perfect but I often got the 4th bounce but I could never get the 5th so I thought the frame perfect was on the 5th bounce but I just wasn't changing my timing after the 4th bounce and the master showed me that

I understand wanting to nerf Power Bounce by making it effectively cap out at 4 hits for casual players, but it still feels WRONG to throw out that entire sense of tightening up your timing with each hit, like you described. It was so satisfying before.

[@yoshiwoollyworld]

A more logical nerf would be decreasing damage by 2 to a maximum of 1

[@FireSonicYT]

no wonder i can never get the 4th bounce.

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

Meanwhile me not even having the game: At what cost! But, I won?

[@Raikuthedragon]

i added more consistency by watching that A button on screen. if you noticed, the A button on screens presses when you reach the frames where it should be pressed, on the 4th jump just time the first frame by instinc and you should be able to time it almost every single time. it's another visual cue ^^ and you should feel the rythm

[@seifenspender]

The A button is also for cool inputs tho, so this might be very confusing

[@wildbill7942]

Thank you kyapper

[@sidiousthesus1984]

8 consectuive frame perfect inputs is crazy

[@maadneet]

I'm wondering if they wanted to tighten up the timing on later bounces, tried to just delete the entries around 4 bounces, and somehow ended up with them using a default value instead Edit: actually it looks like there's a lot of nonsense going on, the 9th bounce with 1 simplifier is less strict than the 8th?? Some of the bounces with 1 unsimplifier are less strict than with no (un)simplifier??

[@Nimtendo03]

I was wondering how I missed bounce 4 when I first used it against Hooktail before I heard about this a few weeks back. I really did think I had gotten really bad at PB after not having played TTYD GCN in a bit. Glad to know there's a visual cue that may help. I'll be sure to try it whenever I get 'round to doing a challenge run in the remake. Whenever that may be.

[@RepugnantWorm]

Simple explanation, and straight to the point! Thanks!

[@SuperJman1111]

I wish I had this guide before I beat the game

[@questionmarkquestionmarkques]

doesnt matter much since the game is still super easy only time i ever wouldve used this is for the one superboss that you need to superguard

[@amirgarcia547]

This entirely explains how I usually only get 4 bounces before I fail lmao. This’s about as narrow a frame window as a superguard.

[@Kappy0]

It's actually a tighter frame window than a superguard, which is 2 frames LOL

[@Nemesis0729]

I straight up avoid using powerbounce in the remake, just a bunch of damage up/jumpman/pupddown stuff and ground pound gets the job done

[@paulmann8570]

Developers: We’re vertically blocking loading zones so nobody does frame perfect jumps to break the game. Also Developers: We’re changing Power Bounce to make a frame perfect jump mandatory on the fourth bounce every time. I guarantee this also somehow crashed Paper Mario.

[@jaylee6083]

Power made Bounce Easy

[@crispydonut9553]

Thank you SO much for this Kappy. All of a sudden I am a lot more consistent with it than I was before. The only addition I would make is that the 8th and 11th bounces are ALSO 1-frame. I suspect the 12th is also 1-frame but I'm not fully sure. You should be fine with the visual cue you gave with those

[@RaceBandit]

...one frame at the 4th hit. WOW.

Just a glimpse into the asylum of their mind.

[@Dragon_Ryder]

Thank you so much! This seems to help me a lot. Also, it seems like EVERY fourth bounce is slightly earlier, not just the fourth bounce. So 4, 8, 12, etc.

[@Avriel_Mimiga]

oh that's weird, i can consistently get the 4th one, but i can never get past 7

Neat analysis video! Thanks for uploading! TBH, I'm wondering if they're planning to patch this, or if the coders were just spiteful. Perhaps they're hoping runners would go for non-Power Bounce strategies?

[@BBSplat]

I've really got to wonder if this is intentional or a bug. Adding a random 1 frame bounce would be a wild decision if it's intended.

[@CesarTorres61296]

I was wondering why Multibonk was so hard to use!

[@ElTaitronAnim]

I knew something was off about the fourth bounce, but I thought was arbitrarily "earlier" than every other jump, not arbitrarily 1 frame. That explains a lot.

[@DarkKoopatrol]

It’s worth noting that hits 8 and 11 have the same timing as 4, and 12 is even earlier.

[@Bowser6495]

How do you go smaller then 1 frame

[@DarkKoopatrol]

@@Bowser6495 You don’t. I’m not talking about how precise it is, but rather their timings. You should press A when you hit the enemy for most hits, but you should press A before you hit the enemy for hits 4, 8, 11, and 12, with 12 being even earlier than the rest.

[@NoahPaperMario]

I say the GameCube is easier in order to time that but thanks for the help.

[@bramble553]

Honestly the only question I have here is "why?" Was this intentionally done to curb OP strats? Was this a glitch? A framerate change gone wrong? What happened to completely screw these up?

[@dylanattix2765]

I think the actual target of the nerf was Danger Mario, since Power Bounce + Danger Mario could rip through even the strongest enemies like a chainsaw.

[@user-fe8ex9tx5r]

I thought the first excellent was the frame perfect jump cuz i got that wonderful way more consistent that the 5th jump for some reason

[@pianoartistgaming7301]

Wait I’ve equipped both simplifier badges and actual started getting them more consistent yet now I’m hearing those badges weren’t doing anything for my timing?

[@tomo8940]

At least danger Mario is still valid.

[@tylermercado1445]

There’s always simplifier. It can give you a few more frames for the 4th timing on Power Bounce/Multibonk, though this means you’ll get less star power.

[@Kappy0]

I specifically address how Simplifier doesn't actually do anything for Power Bounce in the remake; did you watch the video? LOL

[@RoyKnight]

I think I'm in the minority but I actually like that it's harder. I'm a bit bored of all paper mario high level gameplay boiling down to power bounce since it's so massively OP, and it's forced me to work around and explore other more interesting options

[@kkirby999]

i never was able to get very manh bounces even in tbe original.

[@thewiseoldfox]

This is a weird thing for them to make the timing hardest at the 4th hit but actually I think I understand what Nintendo was going for, or wt least I assume. Multibonk/Power Bounce is super overpowered originally and technically it still is. If it was only 3 hits, it'd still be fine, especially if you have other badges that work with Power Bounce it can still be op. But to someone who got through the 1-frame 4th hit, a reward of easier timed hits to continue the chain is a total TTYD thing to do of you think about it. The game is all about those random good feel RPG moments

[@kfed9834]

The real takeaway is that simplifier is broken lol

[@The_Pikaboi]

This showed up after I beat Bonetail...

[@corel7966]

I know power bounce is extremely powerful so maybe that's why nintendo changed it so it couldn't be abused. but still...what a weird way to go about it. why not make the "excellent" bounces more strict? anyway, thanks for the pointer! this will help out a lot.

[@jongameaddict]

Does this affect Multibounce?

[@Kappy0]

Nope, just Power Bounce & Multibonk!

[@MysteriousStranger50]

I’m actually glad they nerfed this move. Making the 4th bounce a 1 frame input makes it fair for the massive damage you can do with it, I mean, if you’re the kind of player doing 13 damage per hit you are also a player who can do a 1 frame input. But everyone else is encouraged to use other moves too

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

This is a bug, not a nerf. If it was intentional, they would've kept every jump at 1 frame afterwards or just cancelled it

[@Heriarka]

0:47 Look at how weirdly inconsistent it is on 1 unsimplifier, adding an extra frame perfect, then removes it on 2 unsimplifiers. No way this was intentional? Is there some weird math I'm not getting?

[@oopsies4155]

Jokes on you I can't hit the first input on Multibonk (seriously why is the timing so wierd)

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

Why did they even do that it doesn't even make sense... (Btw I didn't even know it got smaller in the original, does that happen in 64 aswell?)

[@MusicJunkie37]

Huh, I thought simplifier helped. Must've been placebo then.

[@eaj626]

Was this frame perfect bounce intentional? That seems so weird, especially since it goes back to normal on the 5th bounce. Why would they program it like that?

[@lpnp9477]

I wonder the same, but with the simplifier the frame perfect requirement just shifts, it doesn't get easier. That leads me to believe it's intentional, but why make it non frame perfect after the fourth bonk? It makes no sense. Nintendo is and always had been harebrained.

[@djjomon]

Can you do them all on that visual cue?

[@Kappy0]

Not sure what you mean by that?

[@djjomon]

@@Kappy0 Does the visual cue of lining up Mario with the A button only work on the 4th bounce? Or can you line him up that way for every bounce?

[@Kappy0]

No, and the video does address that you need to press A later after the 4th bounce to keep it going so you can see when to press it LOL

[@djjomon]

@@Kappy0 That doesn't make sense. If the 4th bounce is frame perfect, wouldn't that same frame work for the others which aren't frame perfect?

[@Kappy0]

@@djjomon Yeah, that *should* be the case, but it isn't! I've actually got an advanced Power Bounce/Multibonk Guide coming soon that'll help people get to 12+ bounces more consistently. This video is more for general use, where hitting 5-8 bounces is more than enough to get through the game LOL

I assume yes. The move can be powerful enough at just 3 hits if you know what you're doing. After 4, hitting the frame-perfect, it is just a good feeling to keep the chain going. This is how I make sense of it, it's a total Nintendo thing

thank you so much! Dabn, I literally thought I was becoming worse at Power Bounce. The gamecube version's timings just make so much more sense. Especially at Superguards. Like, wtf are some of these timings in the remake? Personally, I am probably most bothered by the Fuzzy Horde Superguard timings. I mean, you kinda press way before the hit Mario. Or the clefts, where it feels like you have to press when the cleft is right in the middle of Mario.
