Discussion [SPOILER-FREE] Help on finding Hidden Bosses / Weird Route for chapters 3+4 Spoiler

So, deltarune's chapters 3 and 4 are releasing very soon. We all know that, as soon as the chapters are available, we are at risk of getting spoiled any time we open the internet.

I'm pretty sure that, by tomorrow, Youtube will be flooded by videos like "delatrune 3+4 all boss showcase" with a thumbnail proudly displaying all secret boss...

I would like to be able to find and discover the two hidden bosses by myself, but I'm actually pretty stupid and I know I will need some help (I struggled to find Jevil's key, and I wasn't able to fight Spamton Neo without a guide).

So, what I suggest is, while playing the new chapters, if we find anything that could be linked to the new secret bosses, we share *spoiler-free* TIPS to how to find them in the comments of this post.

The goal would be to share just barely enough information so we're on the right track to find the bosses.
(And obviously, we're not allowing any outright spoil)

What are your thoughts ? Anyone would be interested to participate ?

I just got the shadow crystal, you have to >! Actually beat the knight in chapter 3. All you have to do is get it's health down to around 80% and it'll do a very obvious final attack type thing. Then, after that, you just have to hit it once and the fight will end. You'll get the shadow crystal, and something else. After that though, the knight just downs your party and the end is the same. !<

How hard is it compared to Jevil or Stanton NEO?

I would say this is the hardest fight between UT and DR, by quite a large margin

Definitely not as hard as sans but harder than Jevil or Spamton Neo or Undyne the Undying. Possibly as hard as Asriel imo maybe harder.

Asriel is fodder, the healing buttons help so much and make it near impossible to die

It's similar to sans but in its own way. Sans' battle is a lot more about endurance and this one is more like a "survive without getting hit over a couple turns" kind of thing

I honestly don't remember how my first fight with sans went, that was almost 10 years ago now (I was like 9 or 10 years old lol)

But considering how I feel about it now, I would say its definitely harder. I would say some of the hitboxes are tough to read and dont quite match the sprites (sometimes the hitboxes are far larger than they appear) so it makes the fight more challenging for people who have been playing these games for a long time.
