Finally a XP video that deserves views. Hawkster afk can't be done with alien or elemental weapons. Can't believe you showed me #5 ingame on the same you posted this vid!
I’ve done it with alien once before, it was my first time trying it with alien and it worked, got it to level 99 and haven’t been able to get it to work again
@@ghost_onmw2 I suppose it is possible if hawkster never does a fire peck or if you delete all updates on the original Castle Crashers and grab pitch fork with Alien (I highly doubt that's the case here though)
For the Hawkster afk glitch it should be noted that sometimes the thief can end up behind you rather than on top of the cliff, the glitch will still work as intended.
is there a more less specif place where you need to stand for it? I keep trying and he either just grabs the ledge and gets up or i throw him instead of stomping him. I did it a few times now but now i just cant so if you could help me that'd be great thanks :3
@@Just_call_me_Light I was also struggling but after I made it work most the time. To make it not throw him or swing your sword you have to wait a bit before pressing heavy attack button to stomp. Just don't wait long enough that he gets back up. I also find that moving a little closer to his body after you hit him helps it do the stomp. Hope this helps but idk.
I am currently watching my Hawkster infinitely devour the final thief. It took soooo long but I finally did it! Thank you so much for your hard work!!!
I thought the hawk one was patched, any idea why it doesnt work for me? Edit: I got it to work, i was just too close when hitting with the light attack
The afk hawkster xp glitch was never patched. I don't know what you are doing at all, so I can't really make any corrections, but if you do it exactly as I did in the video it should be working.

First of all, the enemy has to be lying on the ground and you must be right on top of him, once you are in this position you have to hit the heavy attack button, I do believe this would Y on Xbox. Hope this helps and good luck!
I've heard of all of these except the last one? Muscle beefy what? That's cool I found out about something I didn't know about. Do you have a video about that mechanic?
Muscle atrophy loaded beefy😅😂 I don't have any other videos on this except for my "Castle Crashers Glitch Compilation" at 31:00, but this really just has the same explanation. If you need tips, here some are: Do this in sand castle interior, because there's a beefy on the first wave (kill the smaller enemy first if you need to). Jump and attack the beefy with a heavy, heavy, light, heavy attack and then try to throw your boomerang at the beefy before you land on the ground (hitting the beefy with the boomerang is frame perfect, so it might take multiple attempts, but if you do it right, the beefy will NOT do the animation of lying on the ground). Once you have muscle atrophy loaded the beefy, run as far away from him as possible and then eat a sandwich (do this because you will not be able to move while transforming into a beefy and if the enemy beefy gets close to you he will attack you and no longer be muscle atrophy loaded). Once you're beefy try to run into the other beefy vertically so that you get into a beefy wrestle (NOT horizontally. Running into the beefy horizontally could cause him to attack you making him not muscle atrophy loaded anymore). Once you are in a beefy wrestle DO NOT press anything, just let the beefy throw you. This will get him stuck in the air and then you can spam splash magic at him. You can also take the scratch paw animal orb and overlap it with your animal orb to get infinite magic. I really hope this makes sense and I also hope this helps. This is definitely not an easy glitch to set up. As aside from doing the xp glitch, you can also get grabbed by the beefy for a softlock, or you can stand still a let him attack you (this will turn the beefy into a normal size enemy for his attack, and then he will return beefy after his attack is finished. I really hope this all makes sense and good luck!
It does work, it's just very inconsistent. Just keep throwing your boomerang at the cactus and it will eventually get stuck. There is an 8 agility setup that works everytime, stand at the bottom left of the cactus and throw your boomerang at full power, then run into the antlion and if you have 8 agility this will work every time. If these instructions are too confusing for you I have a short showcasing it. Good luck
@@askme-so3py you won't get any XP when you attack dead enemies, so when the beefy runs out of hp, you'll have to kill him and restart. That's why this glitch works best on insane mode.

Whenever i do the hawkster one i leave my controller in a running position on the joystick Cause whenever I leave my controller be my game pauses but when its in the running pose my controller turns off every 30 mins but why?
Sorry man, I have no idea. I do know that the game will pause itsself whenever a controller runs out of battery/gets disconnected. Maybe you could try doing the glitch while your controller is plugged in or make sure that it's at full battery before doing the glitch.
If i can ever get through the flowery fields on insane mode and beyond, these tips may help w/ some of my other characters for grinding but my industrialist is highest at 92 spamming the catfish boss w/ magic since i only do 5 damage a hit w/ saw blade and can usually get close to or more than 1k exp each time.
Yes, because the antloin I constantly taking damage. I find this glitch pretty pointless on normal mode because you will only get 200 XP (220 with giraffey). But if you do this on insane mode you with get 2,000 XP (2,200 with giraffey)
Setting up afk hawk is not fun when your character keeps throwing the thief regardless of your positioning and if you're moving when you press the heavy attack or not. It took way too many tries before it finally decided to cooperate.
That is normal. The Antlion is constantly taking damage so he will die pretty fast, making this pretty pointless on normal mode, but if you do this on insane mode, it will take around 30 seconds to kill the Antlion, giving you much more XP.
I haven't found any combos that muscle atrophy load beefys as consistently as HHLH (not that this combo is very consistent to begin with). You could try starting the combo once you are close to the ground, and then mash the boomerang button as fast as possible. It'll probably take multiple attempts though, good luck!
For some of you that have their strength maxed out. If you haven't put points in magic, I'd recommend using your magic to knock them down and stomp on them.
Yeah the timing is a little tricky😅 There is a different way to Muscle Atrophy Load the beefy by hitting him three times with an air attack, throw your boomerang past him, and when it's coming back, hit the beefy with an arrow. Although sadly, I think this is a frame perfect method (but I'm pretty sure the method in the video is frame perfect too). I do find the method in the video the easiest, but just keep trying, you'll get it eventually.
I tried the hawker glitch on my pc and it didn’t not work even though I did as said, my hawkster just did not attack him and he died after moving to a certain area. Anything I did wrong?
@@Shrimp.Shadyy Did the Thief play the climbing animation when he went on top of the cliff? It won't work unless he does. Also, the Thief will die if he stands still, so move downwards to force the Thief to constantly try to walk down.
If you are asking if the afk hawkster xp glitch works in multi-player, then yes it does. In fact the more players you bring along (as long as they have Hawkster equipped) the more xp you will earn.
@@K.Micester does it work in the switch version? Cause I tried with the same account and several characters and with different accounts, and only the one who stumped the bandit, is the one who got the exp :/
@@altairevaldes810 Okay, I see what you are saying. If you do this with 4 players, even though everyone's Hawkster is attacking the enemy only the one who stomped the theif will get xp (all the other hawksters give xp to the person who knocks over the enemy). And yes, this works on switch
i cant get the afk hawk glitch to work, every time i start the fight it locks my screen so i cant go back to the edge until afterwards, am i doing something wrong or did it get patched?
@@centrixium68 You must be on the original version instead of the remastered version. On the original versions it locks the screen and the only way to access the cliff is to use wave skip glitches.
@@tarlins1567 Make sure you're using the combo while in the air, and try to keep as much distance between you and the beefy while still being able to hit him.
Just keep practicing. You have to hit the beefy with the boomerang on the same frame he hits the ground. I find this easiest to jump and hit the beefy with H H L H and then mash the button to throw your boomerang. After you have muscle atrophy loaded the beefy run as far away from him as possible and eat a sandwich. Once you are beefy run in to the other beefy so that you get into a wrestling match with him. Then just simply let him win, and you should be able to XP farm off of him.
Ima keep it a buck with you, the last xp glitch with 'Muscle Atrophy Loaded Beefy' doesn't work. The beefy is glitched and is standing still, however I don't gain xp from using the splash attack
His splash attack won't damage airborne enemies, and since the beefy is considered in the air, there will be no effect. You can set up the glitch just fine with Red Knight and even damage the beefy, but you will just not be able to do 1 damage to him from splash attacks unlike most other characters.
Do this in sand castle interior, because there's a beefy on the first wave (kill the smaller enemy first if you need to). Jump and attack the beefy with a heavy, heavy, light, heavy attack and then try to throw your boomerang at the beefy before you land on the ground (hitting the beefy with the boomerang is frame perfect, so it might take multiple attempts, but if you do it right, the beefy will NOT do the animation of lying on the ground). Once you have muscle atrophy loaded the beefy, run as far away from him as possible and then eat a sandwich (do this because you will not be able to move while transforming into a beefy and if the enemy beefy gets close to you he will attack you and no longer be muscle atrophy loaded). Once you're beefy try to run into the other beefy vertically so that you get into a beefy wrestle (NOT horizontally. Running into the beefy horizontally could cause him to attack you making him not muscle atrophy loaded anymore). Once you are in a beefy wrestle DO NOT press anything, just let the beefy throw you. This will get him stuck in the air and then you can spam splash magic at him. You can also take the scratch paw animal orb and overlap it with your animal orb to get infinite magic. I really hope this makes sense and I also hope this helps. This is definitely not an easy glitch to set up. Also if you are looking for the fastest way to level up, I would recommend doing the antlion xp glitch, but if you're anything like me you'd want to try out a new glitch. Good luck!
thanks the reason I'm not doing the antlion xp glitch is because I'm not there on insane, and on normal it dies too fast I'm trying to max out my charracter to get past wedding crash on insane, those coneheads!@@K.Micester
It's a beat-em-up; the best you could hope for is an xp system that inspires repeated playthroughs, more grind. It suits the genre. If they went the rpg route and fleshed out all sorts of xp mechanics beyond just hitting, people would find ways that are much cheesier to get op early, and the game that is already unbearably short would feel smaller. Xp on hit incentivizes repeated playthroughs and suits the overall design.
The glitch won't work if you are using an elemental weapon. The glitch will also break if the thief stands still, avoid this by standing at the bottom of the screen, so the thief will be constantly walking down, trying to get to your y position
It does work! It's kind of precise though. Just keep trying to hit the beefy with the boomerang as he lands until you see him not play the animation of lying on the ground. Once youve got that to work make sure that he doesn't get close to you until you beefy wrestle him. (If he attacks, he'll no longer be Muscle Atrophy Loaded).
@@Epi-b3f Have each player join a solo game and equip Hawkster then exit to map to save your changes and then exit game. Do this with all four players that you want to do this glitch with and then have them all join the same game, and each player will be using Hawkster.
This is very inconsistent, and it might take up to 20 attempts to get it right. Just keep throwing your boomerang at the cactus and running in to the antlion, you'll get it eventually. There are setups that are consistent at 0 agility and 8 agility, but if you're not at those agility levels it might take a while. Good luck!
The 8 agility setup works if you stand near the bottom left of the cactus and throw your boomerang at full power, then run into the antlion. The 0 agility setup on the other hand is a pixel perfect position in front of the cactus, you must throw your boomerang at full power and then run into the antlion.
You could on the days of Xbox 360, but that glitch has been patched, but same goes for Antlion XP glitch, as that glitch was patched and it still works, just with a harder set up. So theoretically, it's still possible on the Catfish, but currently there is no known set up. As far as I know the only places that have set ups that work in the remastered versions are Antlion, Industrial Pillars, and Pipistrello.
@@astarlitskyIt's probably running out of battery, make sure to charge you controller to full battery power. Also some consoles might turn off after a while of inactivity, so be sure to change this in the settings
@@K.MicesterNevermind it just took half a decade for the hawk to start feeding him. I am on insane mode so it took fucking for ever. After trying the hawk glitch for half an hour and finally getting it, i actually thought they nerfed it because it didn't feed the thief. I was just waiting for the thief to die hopelessly
The Hawkster Glitch.... I'm at the Glitch with 4 Players But only Player 1 gets XP What am I doing wrong? Or did you mean, Player 1 gets XP with X4 Speed?
no offense but you're a little uninformed, a glitch is something that the game does without being programmed that way. to explain myself, the only glitch that you have mentioned is the AFK hawk one, the other ones are pro tips, it was usefull to know anyways so keep making content 👍
All glitches are programmed into the game, not intended, but programmed. The game runs off of the programmed code which is the only source of telling the game what to do, therefore all glitches have reasoning to what causes them in the code. I will agree, the first two really aren't glitches, they're more of XP methods. But the last three definitely have major irregularities like getting a beefy stuck in the air. But instead of arguing about the definition of glitch, I thank you for your feedback and have a good one!😁
The ant lion dies after a couple seconds once I get the glitch to work and then for the hawkey one it works for a couple seconds then it just stops idk I might be doing that one wrong but the ant lion one I did correctly I think
Sorry I got to this late (RUclips didn't notify me of this comment for some reason). Hawkster doesn't work with elemental weapons, but I think you said you figured out how to do AFK Hawker, so I'll just explainthe Antlion XP Glitch. The antlion always dies fast because he only has 200 hp and the boomerang will deal one damage every frame when it's stuck, so if you're playing at 60 fps, it's normal for him to die in about 3 seconds, but if you do this on insane mode the Antlion will have 10x more hp setting his health to 2,000 allowing you to attack him for about 30 seconds.
@@K.Micester got it, and yeah I figured out the hawkster glitch, just doing insane mode for the first time now and it’s a lot of fun, haven’t gotten to the desert yet but I’ll try it out when I get there
@@HeroicLeo8125 AFK Pipistrello is a private kill glitch, but the AFK XP glitch I found uses some of the same glitches that AFK Pipistrello uses, therefore I'm not going to make a video about this XP glitch until AFK Pipistrello becomes a public glitch.
@@boxmantherandomTrue. It isn't actually a glitch, because all it is, is utilizing the game's intended mechanics to farm XP. I only put it in the video because it isn't intended by the behemoth.
@@Mr_84. That means that you're hitting the thief while he's too close to the cliff. Try putting more space between the Thief and the cliff and then hit him.
@@K.Micester followed it to a T and still nothing, I jump up and do a light attack and then stomp on him, the moves back up to the top but the hawk doesn’t follow him and then he dies. Using the lightest weapon that I can
@@ajday19891989 ohh. Try to get more space between the thief and the cliff then use the light attack. Doing the light attack moves the thief back just a little bit, so if the thief is to close to the cliff he will instantly climb up it before you can stomp him.
I'm pretty sure they do work, but I think the cliff for hawkster is unaccessible unless you do a wave skip glitch, and for the antlion it's just really inconsistent to perform. I could be wrong because I've never played PS3 version.
@@quwiks6521 Wave skipping. If you have two players stand close to each other and then walk away, the screen will expand. If you do this at the right spot you can skip waves. So basically on Xbox 360 and I'm assuming PS3 as well, when you get to the wave of enemies at the river, you will be unable to go back to the cliff until you beat all of the thieves, unlike the remastered versions, but if you use this wave skip you can access this cliff while there are enemies, allowing you to do AFK Hawkster. ruclips.net/video/lbruN6FtiJk/видео.htmlsi=TV4fwedcrjYp0mT9

Yes, because the antloin I constantly taking damage. I find this glitch pretty pointless on normal mode because you will only get 200 XP (220 with giraffey). But if you do this on insane mode you with get 2,000 XP (2,200 with giraffey)
Setting up afk hawk is not fun when your character keeps throwing the thief regardless of your positioning and if you're moving when you press the heavy attack or not. It took way too many tries before it finally decided to cooperate.
If you're throwing him that means you're pressing the button to late. Press the stomp button while the enemy is still on the ground
@@K.Micester I've had it going for 2 hours now I think. I got it eventually.
@@Cellmate awesome sauce
@@K.Micester I feel like I came off very rude, so I apologize and offer a sub.
@@Cellmate XD I felt no rudeness at all, and don't feel like you have to sub either
when I do the ant lion glitch, the ant lion ends up dying, what am I doing wrong
That is normal. The Antlion is constantly taking damage so he will die pretty fast, making this pretty pointless on normal mode, but if you do this on insane mode, it will take around 30 seconds to kill the Antlion, giving you much more XP.
@@K.Micester thank you so much!
Yo i need to know to do that last trick, the HHLH trick cause its jus not working for me
I haven't found any combos that muscle atrophy load beefys as consistently as HHLH (not that this combo is very consistent to begin with). You could try starting the combo once you are close to the ground, and then mash the boomerang button as fast as possible. It'll probably take multiple attempts though, good luck!
God this game is timeless
@@soulcrusher41 It really is.
way back in the day on 360, there used to be on with the cat fish and boomerrang, does anyone know if its patched? or is that still a thing

@@K.Micester i remember doing the catfish one so much😂 brings back good times, but thank you lol
For some of you that have their strength maxed out. If you haven't put points in magic, I'd recommend using your magic to knock them down and stomp on them.
@@dingiestmango716 Arrows can also work
@K.Micester fun fact. I found out magic doesn't work with it at all.
@@dingiestmango716 oh lol
i kinda suck so i can't pull off the combo on the beefy to throw the boomerang, any other combos that make him trip?
Yeah the timing is a little tricky😅 There is a different way to Muscle Atrophy Load the beefy by hitting him three times with an air attack, throw your boomerang past him, and when it's coming back, hit the beefy with an arrow. Although sadly, I think this is a frame perfect method (but I'm pretty sure the method in the video is frame perfect too). I do find the method in the video the easiest, but just keep trying, you'll get it eventually.
I tried the hawker glitch on my pc and it didn’t not work even though I did as said, my hawkster just did not attack him and he died after moving to a certain area. Anything I did wrong?
@@Shrimp.Shadyy Did the Thief play the climbing animation when he went on top of the cliff? It won't work unless he does. Also, the Thief will die if he stands still, so move downwards to force the Thief to constantly try to walk down.
The ant lion would've been good except it dies within a minute or two of getting hit with boomerang
@@ZoSo_x Yeah, but at least you can get 2,000 XP, which is enough for at least one level up even at high levels.

Anyone able to do the hawkster glitch while in multiplayer?
If you are asking if the afk hawkster xp glitch works in multi-player, then yes it does. In fact the more players you bring along (as long as they have Hawkster equipped) the more xp you will earn.
@@K.Micester does it work in the switch version? Cause I tried with the same account and several characters and with different accounts, and only the one who stumped the bandit, is the one who got the exp :/
@@altairevaldes810 Okay, I see what you are saying. If you do this with 4 players, even though everyone's Hawkster is attacking the enemy only the one who stomped the theif will get xp (all the other hawksters give xp to the person who knocks over the enemy). And yes, this works on switch
@@K.Micester so, I gotta train each one by themselves then?
@@altairevaldes810 yes, but bringing along more players accelerates the process for the individual
i cant get the afk hawk glitch to work, every time i start the fight it locks my screen so i cant go back to the edge until afterwards, am i doing something wrong or did it get patched?
@@centrixium68 You must be on the original version instead of the remastered version. On the original versions it locks the screen and the only way to access the cliff is to use wave skip glitches.
The beefy wont go into the sky when I hit him and instead throws me
@@tarlins1567 Make sure you're using the combo while in the air, and try to keep as much distance between you and the beefy while still being able to hit him.
Does anyone have any advice on how to do the beefy glitch?
Just keep practicing. You have to hit the beefy with the boomerang on the same frame he hits the ground. I find this easiest to jump and hit the beefy with H H L H and then mash the button to throw your boomerang. After you have muscle atrophy loaded the beefy run as far away from him as possible and eat a sandwich. Once you are beefy run in to the other beefy so that you get into a wrestling match with him. Then just simply let him win, and you should be able to XP farm off of him.
Ima keep it a buck with you, the last xp glitch with 'Muscle Atrophy Loaded Beefy' doesn't work. The beefy is glitched and is standing still, however I don't gain xp from using the splash attack
He probably ran out of health. Damaging enemies with 0 hp doesn't give any xp, so this glitch is gonna be a lot more effective on insane mode
@@K.Micester Alright, I appreciate the reply. I'll keep trying to get it right, thanks man.
So why can’t red knight do the last one?
His splash attack won't damage airborne enemies, and since the beefy is considered in the air, there will be no effect. You can set up the glitch just fine with Red Knight and even damage the beefy, but you will just not be able to do 1 damage to him from splash attacks unlike most other characters.
can I get some tips to do the 5th glitch, can't seem to do it.
Do this in sand castle interior, because there's a beefy on the first wave (kill the smaller enemy first if you need to). Jump and attack the beefy with a heavy, heavy, light, heavy attack and then try to throw your boomerang at the beefy before you land on the ground (hitting the beefy with the boomerang is frame perfect, so it might take multiple attempts, but if you do it right, the beefy will NOT do the animation of lying on the ground). Once you have muscle atrophy loaded the beefy, run as far away from him as possible and then eat a sandwich (do this because you will not be able to move while transforming into a beefy and if the enemy beefy gets close to you he will attack you and no longer be muscle atrophy loaded). Once you're beefy try to run into the other beefy vertically so that you get into a beefy wrestle (NOT horizontally. Running into the beefy horizontally could cause him to attack you making him not muscle atrophy loaded anymore). Once you are in a beefy wrestle DO NOT press anything, just let the beefy throw you. This will get him stuck in the air and then you can spam splash magic at him. You can also take the scratch paw animal orb and overlap it with your animal orb to get infinite magic. I really hope this makes sense and I also hope this helps. This is definitely not an easy glitch to set up. Also if you are looking for the fastest way to level up, I would recommend doing the antlion xp glitch, but if you're anything like me you'd want to try out a new glitch. Good luck!
thanks
the reason I'm not doing the antlion xp glitch is because I'm not there on insane, and on normal it dies too fast
I'm trying to max out my charracter to get past wedding crash on insane, those coneheads!@@K.Micester

@@boxmantherandom good luck!
Nice video but honestly the XP system based on hits instead of kills is kind of idiotic
@@frozenstar8050 Yeah, because if you want higher strength, you are going to be at lower levels.
It's a beat-em-up; the best you could hope for is an xp system that inspires repeated playthroughs, more grind. It suits the genre.
If they went the rpg route and fleshed out all sorts of xp mechanics beyond just hitting, people would find ways that are much cheesier to get op early, and the game that is already unbearably short would feel smaller. Xp on hit incentivizes repeated playthroughs and suits the overall design.
W video, I never knew about the last one
Cant do the hawkster glitch, he stops attacking the thief after about 3 seconds
The glitch won't work if you are using an elemental weapon. The glitch will also break if the thief stands still, avoid this by standing at the bottom of the screen, so the thief will be constantly walking down, trying to get to your y position
@@K.Micester damn bro your fast. Thank youuu
@@K.Micester thankss just got to lvl99
The beefy one doesnt work at least on xbox, so sad because is the best one of all
It does work! It's kind of precise though. Just keep trying to hit the beefy with the boomerang as he lands until you see him not play the animation of lying on the ground. Once youve got that to work make sure that he doesn't get close to you until you beefy wrestle him. (If he attacks, he'll no longer be Muscle Atrophy Loaded).
How do you get all 4 people to get hawkster
@@Epi-b3f Have each player join a solo game and equip Hawkster then exit to map to save your changes and then exit game. Do this with all four players that you want to do this glitch with and then have them all join the same game, and each player will be using Hawkster.
What level is the centipede one?

@@K.Micester thanks
Which method gives the most XP in regular mode
AFK Hawkster XP Glitch
anybody have any tips for the antilion on, it doesnt work for me
This is very inconsistent, and it might take up to 20 attempts to get it right. Just keep throwing your boomerang at the cactus and running in to the antlion, you'll get it eventually.
There are setups that are consistent at 0 agility and 8 agility, but if you're not at those agility levels it might take a while. Good luck!
@@K.Micester and if I do have that agility what is the setup exactly?
To be honest I have no idea😢 This is just what A1rPun told me. I'll look into it
@@K.Micester alright thanks
The 8 agility setup works if you stand near the bottom left of the cactus and throw your boomerang at full power, then run into the antlion. The 0 agility setup on the other hand is a pixel perfect position in front of the cactus, you must throw your boomerang at full power and then run into the antlion.
You can do boomerang glitch on cat boss level
You could on the days of Xbox 360, but that glitch has been patched, but same goes for Antlion XP glitch, as that glitch was patched and it still works, just with a harder set up. So theoretically, it's still possible on the Catfish, but currently there is no known set up. As far as I know the only places that have set ups that work in the remastered versions are Antlion, Industrial Pillars, and Pipistrello.
The antliom exp trick doesn’t work for me
It's very tricky, just keep throwing your boomerang at the cactus and running into the antlion. This might take up to 20 attempts
Bet
@@K.Micester there are setups that will always work. Without agility and one with like 8 agility.
does the ant lion glitch still work
Yes it does. It can be inconsistent, so you might have to throw you boomerang multiple times.
does the hawkster glitch work in normal mode?
Yes it does and it's just as effective on normal mode as it is on insane mode

@ thx so much
@ thx
wait the antion xp glitch iknowed how to do it but i didnt know it was a glitch
Yep it's definitely a glitch, given the fact that the behemoth tried to patch it out of the game.
no offense but you're a little uninformed,
a glitch is something that the game does without being programmed that way. to explain myself, the only glitch that you have mentioned is the AFK hawk one, the other ones are pro tips, it was usefull to know anyways so keep making content 👍
All glitches are programmed into the game, not intended, but programmed. The game runs off of the programmed code which is the only source of telling the game what to do, therefore all glitches have reasoning to what causes them in the code. I will agree, the first two really aren't glitches, they're more of XP methods. But the last three definitely have major irregularities like getting a beefy stuck in the air. But instead of arguing about the definition of glitch, I thank you for your feedback and have a good one!😁
The ant lion dies after a couple seconds once I get the glitch to work and then for the hawkey one it works for a couple seconds then it just stops idk I might be doing that one wrong but the ant lion one I did correctly I think
Any tips for this please?!
Edit: I got it to work but not the ant lion
Sorry I got to this late (RUclips didn't notify me of this comment for some reason). Hawkster doesn't work with elemental weapons, but I think you said you figured out how to do AFK Hawker, so I'll just explainthe Antlion XP Glitch. The antlion always dies fast because he only has 200 hp and the boomerang will deal one damage every frame when it's stuck, so if you're playing at 60 fps, it's normal for him to die in about 3 seconds, but if you do this on insane mode the Antlion will have 10x more hp setting his health to 2,000 allowing you to attack him for about 30 seconds.

@@K.Micester What do you mean by jumping the wave?
@@quwiks6521 Wave skipping. If you have two players stand close to each other and then walk away, the screen will expand. If you do this at the right spot you can skip waves. So basically on Xbox 360 and I'm assuming PS3 as well, when you get to the wave of enemies at the river, you will be unable to go back to the cliff until you beat all of the thieves, unlike the remastered versions, but if you use this wave skip you can access this cliff while there are enemies, allowing you to do AFK Hawkster. ruclips.net/video/lbruN6FtiJk/видео.htmlsi=TV4fwedcrjYp0mT9
