'''Corner Boosting''' is ~~an exploit that is~~ the result of a buggy interaction between [[Wall Jumping|Wall Jumps]] and map geometry, allowing players to gain significantly more height than a standard wall jump. This technique can be performed on any edge, corner or curved surface but requires precise positioning and timing.

'''Corner Boosting''' is a tech based on the result of a buggy interaction between [[Wall Jumping|Wall Jumps]] and map geometry, allowing players to gain significantly more height than a standard wall jump. This technique can be performed on any edge, corner or curved surface but requires precise positioning and timing.

When you attempt to Wall Jump, the game will check the closest point on the wall from your collision capsule to determine your launch angle and vector. When near the edge of a horizontal and vertical surface or on a curved surface, the resulting angle, and therefore vector, can become incredibly steep, and (after addition with other vectors) result in an incredibly steep resulting vector. This is further helped with the shape of the collision capsule and its rounded shape, allowing for even higher angles. This results in a Wall Jump with near to no horizontal velocity (depending on the surface) and high vertical velocity.

Though it's technically a glitch exploit, corner boosting has been recognized as a proper tech when it was mentioned by the devs in the [[patch notes]].<ref>{{Update link|October|2|2025}} Update: ''"Reduced corner boosting velocity by 20%"''</ref>

* When sufficiently near the ledge, jump.

This method is near impractical due to its difficulty and variability. However, if you can execute it consistently, it is the fastest way to set up a Corner Boost, and will allow you to Corner Boost of nearly anything instantly.
