3 Vessel Fragments King's Station route

3 Vessel Fragments King's Station route (for any patch, though it's optimal on 1.4+)

Note: This route is slower than the Stag Nest route by ~20 seconds, but it skips having to the precise Vengefly pogo up to Stag Nest
Another note: Just run this on 1.4+; it's faster because you have to kill Moss Knights on 1.2.2.1 and even then you might be a bit under and have to kill some more City enemies
