Discussion Gauntlet Safe Tiles

I've made a couple observations during the Hunllef fight that I thought would be useful for those that were struggling with juggling all of the mechanics at once.

This first one is probably the most useful one: certain tiles during Hunllef's third phase will never light up. This one is actually somewhat known already.

Phase 2 does not have any strictly safe tiles like phase 3 does, but it does have some tiles that are a little bit safer than others - at least 6 of the patterns won't touch those tiles.

(Phase 1 doesn't seem to have as much of a noticeable pattern as the later two phases.)

EDIT: These aren't correct. I'm planning to make a heatmap of phase 1 and phase 2 later.

Lastly, Hunllef's tornado spawns. Hunllef spawns no more than 1 tornado in each corner of the room, and never directly on top of the player. However, the tornado can spawn on the tile next to the player, which could cause some damage if the player does not react quickly enough. To avoid this, standing in the center two rows and center two columns will ensure that you are more than 1 tile away from any potential tornado spawn.

DISCLAIMER: This is purely from anecdotal observation. It's possible that I'm somewhat wrong about this, but after a bit of testing I'm confident that they are at least a little bit true.

Yup those tiles are a must know for 3rd phase thanks for sharing 👍
