Gannonless any% Route

[Nook]

Get ideas down here

[Mr. Hero]

Would this be a completely different category to normal any%? I'm pretty certain normal any% times stop at the final hit on Ganon, and in the Light Arrow Skip route you don't even fight Ganon...

Wouldn't it be faster NOT to skip the LA and do BA from the LACS instead of clearing forest temple and doing a reverse DoT skip :p?

But otherwise, this. When to stop the timer is so ambigous with the CS-warp that someone needs to put their foot down on it.

After you pressed A to warp back (last input)?
After white fadeout?
On "The End" screen with Link and Zelda?

This. Beating Forest Temple is gonna be slower in every route, so actually skipping light arrows is pointless unless it's used in a puzzle goal.

The timing that is used for all the categories is typically last meaningful input (AKA final hit on ganon, since textboxes are not meaningful input). This would mean we stop timing after warping with FW, since that is the last input.

i think you should change topic to "Ganonless Any% Routes" or something of the like

[Toolex]

or change the old any % to 'Beat Ganon'

I'll manage to make the forest temple route (skipping RBA and trading items alltogether) quicker than LACS, I swear

If dodongo cavern is included in this run, wouldn't it be faster to use master quest for the run ? DC is far faster in it cause you get the bombs right away and you can go to KD right after them.

I'm just sayin

Look at the 3D section, we've been getting faster times for MQ than regular game

    egg hatch, kak
    bugs under rock, quick bottle b + equip sword before catching to rba cucco
    catch bugs in real bottle
    wake talon
    cojiro
    equip bugs to c right
    sell B bugs to beggar (110r)
    buy stick, shield, nuts (5r)
    to dc
    blow up 1st wall + death at the same time
    dc up to bombs
    light eyes
    dumb bugs on switch
    Kd, break stick on last hit, take damage from lava during fight
    killself again
    goron city, lw, odd mush
    kak
    fish from grotto
    odd potion
    ss out of kak
    hess to kokiri
    pressure jump
    saw
    up dm to magic
    rba saw
    magic
    sw
    ss to gv
    no isg megaflip
    broken sword
    rba it, rba nuts, 13 nuts
    oi prelude to lacs
    lacs, fw on b
    exit, enter tot, set fw
    ss to kak
    to dc
    dump fish on switch (oi faster if you have a spare bomb)
    win

If you don't want to do isg megaflip you can buy another stick going to odd potion, but you have to get a bottle on B before buying it.  Its only slightly slower, it might even out if you do it well.

I got a 49:02 with this route and 47 is definitely possible.

Pastebin of the route if anyone wants to share it http://pastebin.com/47UzrBcH
