Spelunky 2 - 5 EASY Ways to Rob the Black market

a guide on 5 easy ways to rob the black market

[@CateGhost666]

great vid! i wonder if these tips would work in real life...?

[@Pastryperson]

yeah most of them work in real life its just slightly harder

[@beeast4853]

Hold up

[@rootedcorgi7742]

Good luck

[@limerumpus3589]

the ladder trick doesnt work as well since the ai is better :/

[@kendrad8573]

Remember to bring a shopkeepers shotgun

[@nunagamer]

To rob the black market: 1. Find the black market … Yep I’m still stuck here…

[@DiagonalTanooki]

this is why most people take their chances with vlads cape instead

1:59 I tried this strat before even watching this video, it worked out fine before I realized there was a vine to my left and a random 1billion IQ shopkeeper climbed up it and insta-killed me. Gud video, I've binged watched some of your other ones, all just as well made. Keep up the good work!

[@jxistxtic2306]

Using spiked boots helps with the latter as it kills them with 2 stomps

[@Pastryperson]

yes, I forgot to include that in the video but it does speed the process up

[@hkarma8580]

Lmao, love the 1000 gold off while there's a sneaky bar of gold just at the top

[@patrickhanlon2325]

Be careful of hired hands for the pacifist strategy, buy them and take them our first otherwise they'll attack the shopkeepers

[@yourlocaldweebo6189]

Or you can just get a boomerang, lure the hedjet shopkeeper to the ladder and start leaning on the side of the block and *accidentally* dropping the boomerang multiple times, and now you have 40k or more if your good at grinding to buy equip and whup tiamat or hundun since the prices at the blackmarket are at their 1-2 prices. Great content btw. :D

[@Side_N0te]

I've seen this done in online, I tried to replicate it but I didn't use a boomerang and they got mad at me so what I want to know is why is it that only the boomerang works?

[@yourlocaldweebo6189]

@Side N0te tiki men are equipped with boomerangs so if you make a tiki man throw his weapon at a shopkeeper, you wouldn't be blamed. This makes the AI engine so that if a "tiki man" were to drop a boomerang, via getting hit, the boomerang will smack the shopkeepers and they wouldn't be pissed off. So me and my 2 friends tried this strategy and it actually worked. Pretty crazy qwq.

[@Cataclyscerator]

They're all not expensive tho They all have the same standard prices when you got to a 1-2 shop

[@S.A.M-MK3]

And then just use the money the shopkeepers drop to buy all the items! *oh wait*

[@ODISeth]

A neat bit of advice!!! I usually try to wing it if I’m not going to Vlad’s, it’d be nice to have these actual strategies haha

[@Throckmorpheus]

honestly until the bit at the start of the video it hadn't crossed my mind that you could *buy* things from the black market. i dont know if ive ever even gotten there without having already killed one

[@Fella_friend]

I’ve always used Yang and it’s funniest when you give Yang a metal shield and useful cause everything gets piled at the exit outside of a shop

[@readyplayerthree3]

Thanks! ^~^ Sending this to my lunky homies!

[@monsi3379]

Not worth if. If you anger the shop keepers the run is just ruined

[@dibble7368]

Don't worry guys, I've been keeping track of my ladder RNG and its pretty good

[@orangexylem]

Do you still get forgiven when you get past Olmec?

[@HanakkoLove]

Theres 2 gold bars right above you dude

[@goldenbingb1496]

It hurt seeing you leave bomb boxes

[@v_Magica]

black market items go down to the first floor price, it ends up being super good and you just gather money from the first floor onward and you should have plenty

[@SeriouslyTheDog]

True black market robbers would just shoplift outright with no plan =)

[@renatoflores3355]

do it in spelunky 1, I bet u :D

[@zoldilox2412]

I found the black market and i was one health as soon as I set foot a run into a skeleton that was conveniently placed at the entrance 😂

[@bobthe7thh]

What does the item even do?

[@cardboard._]

Did they patch the boomerang trick ?

[@TheSilly6403]

Still works!

[@murkd3414]

i was playing online today and this guy had a boomerang and kept wobble dropping his boomerang down the ladder hitting the hedget shopkeeper without agroing him

[@Pastryperson]

you got any more details on what he did? If this strategy still works I'll make a video on it (with to you of course)

[@murkd3414]

@@Pastryperson he moved the hedget to the left wall, went up the ladder up on the ledge and kept wobbling and dropping it and it didnt agro him and let him take the hedget without paying

[@Pastryperson]

@@murkd3414 :) just tested it works, except a video coming soon probably

What font do you use?

[@Pastryperson]

For titles I use source sans pro black or sometimes Fira sans medium which is the font in Spelunky 2. For text on screen I think it’s called bahnschrift.

TEXT TOO FAST FFS

felipe carvolho to slow

[@c.s.7097]

Seems like you put a decent amount of effort into making the video. Quite a shame your grammar is still well below what I would expect from an elementary school student
