I was in the Skull Woods temple and I got up to the boss and when I was fighting him I suddenly warped out of the temple to where the sage painting was. I missed out on the heart container so I restarted (have to redo the whole temple) but I'm wondering what happened and how because I want to avoid doing it again but also because this kind of thing is what speedrunners like right?
So here's the play-by-play of what happened.
The warp happened when the giant hand was purple an flashing red so I assume he was low health. My strategy involved phasing into the wall during each of his ground slams, and then using the tornado rod to jump him when he charged and then attack him while still being next to the wall. This strategy worked for most of the fight, sometimes I landed inside him/straight through him but it didn't make any difference. But then suddenly I just warped. The battle ended when I landed on him (I was on low health. I don't think he hit me but he might've if I'd jumped too early?) and suddenly the screen went black and I walked out of the skull in the forest next to the sage painting.
Anyone have any idea what happened, how it happened and how I can avoid it?
