Overview

Colford Cauldron is one of these levels where the ground forms up more slowly than usual, so be careful, although there are some places where you can move at full speed.

The gate at the start opens quite quickly, but you can still get through it faster by clipping through. This is one of the hardest clips in the game, the position for it is between the stones of the gate and the small rocks to its left(slightly closer to the . If your position is right, roll down and right. Right after you clip there is a bit of fake ground on the bottom, because the game literally hates you. Try to avoid falling there.

NG+ - in NG+ this clip is made easier by using the Pike Vault to get into position.

Ignore the Flame Bellows, it's also a trap. It's actually the worst weapon in the game.

At some point in the level, the way will be blocked by some wilted weeds. In NG, use the Pike to clean them out, in NG+ you can also shoot the Scrap Musket. If you use the pike, try to hit as little objects as possible to avoid getting freeze frames.

NG+ - Attempt the CC Skip, fail it, cry.

When coming back after taking the Shard, don't roll into the Skyway before using it as you would in other levels, as this can make you get stuck.

If you clipped through the gate at the start, it will still be closed. Clip through at the same spot - this clip is much easier from this side. Complete the Cauldron by taking the Skyway in the same place where you entered the level.
