No matter how well I follow the Pansage, the top Golbat always catches me in the final section of the challenge on Dragonspiral Tower 4F right before I reach the other monkeys. I am riding the Arcanine mount, and my understanding is that all mounts are the same speed. It seems like I cannot follow the Pansage closely enough due to how much of a lead it gets before I am able to run after it. Am I doing something wrong or does this last section just need to be frame perfect? Thanks!
