+Then, you have to use your rockets to blow a hole in the Wall (aprx. 8 rockets). Try to keep the number of "pockets" low, so enemies can't hide out in them. Better yet, use the splash from rocket explosions to make yourself a little 2-tile nook to duck behind when things get rough. Try to make a 3-tile wide hole that is even with the nook on your side:
