Hole of Heroes: Difference between revisions

The '''Hole of Heroes''' is a [[cave]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', found in the [[Wistful Wild]], the game's fourth and last area. It is the longest cave in the game with 15 [[sublevel]]s but only 13 treasures, and of a difficulty comparable to the other Wistful Wild caves. The later sublevels are based around repeats of encounters with [[Enemy#Boss|bosses]] from earlier in ''Pikmin 2'', including the [[Empress Bulblax]], [[Beady Long Legs]] and [[Man-at-Legs]].

The Hole of Heroes is reachable only by the same path used to retrieve the [[Conifer Spire]]. The road there involves a [[Hermit Crawmad]], water that needs to be drained, [[Blowhog]]s, [[Sheargrub]]s, and a protective [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]]. Pass the Conifer Spire's resting place and travel down the bamboo pipe to reach the cave entrance. Be careful not to fall off the tree stump so you don't have to take the journey all over again.

You will encounter hordes of enemies and all hazards in this cave. It is highly recommended you take 20 Yellow and Blue Pikmin, 15 White, 15 Purple, and 30 Red. This way you can face every obstacle with a good offensive group. Another idea is to take 45 Red Pikmin, 25 Blue, 15 Yellow, 10 White and 5 Purple. The truth is, the threats that this cave holds are very minor, and do not require many resistant Pikmin to eliminate them; the cave does have many tough bosses though, so a lot of Red Pikmin is the way to go. Purples will help; however, it is recommended to have reinforcements. Frustratingly, the Hole of Heroes, like the other two caves in the Wistful Wild, contains bosses that prove to be quite challenging, but offer no suit or gameplay upgrade for defeating them.
