Improved Downwards Thrust
Personally, I used the Slimy Saddle (Slime Mount) / Gelatinous Pillion (Winged Slime Mount) for quick downwards evasion while fighting in the air, but I'm unsure if that's an effective tactic in the grand scheme of things. I'm "old" and my reaction speed isn't the best, so using this helped me personally. Under no circumstances would I use the Winged Slime Mount as a substitute for wings though - it's just something extra. --192.160.102.166 18:00, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * That's not at all a bad strategy, in fact that's the thing that makes the Slime Saddles two of the best mounts in the game, since they are the only way to accelerate downwards in this game. They will likely be added in as the guide gets updated. Bame66 (talk) 18:17, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Dodging the attacks in expert/master mode is a lot easier with the extra mounts
I found that the Shrimpy Truffle (in the rain) and the Black Spot can move fast enough to keep pushing the empress of light off-screen. It makes the fight a breeze if you're playing in expert/master mode, letting you equip an extra accessory in place of wings since they can be replaced entirely.
