What is a glitch? / Glitchless RTA runs

[Pheenoh]

It wasn't unintended though. This mechanic was deliberately put in place to allow jump attacks to reach targets they wouldn't otherwise be able to. It doesn't only work in specific circumstances either. It happens every single time you jump attack while targeting. Watch your speed while jump attacking at a target; it will always depend on where the target is in relation to link.

Of course I wasn't talking about every type of LJA. I was only talking about the high speed ones that let you do sequence breaks, which only work in specific circumstances.

Would anyone really argue that clipping through walls isn't a glitch?

I meant to put that comment on the AG Boss Key early. Sorry.

I don't see how it's anything like pcs. Pcs works because a variable was never set when crouch stabbing.

I was not comparing the technicalities of the trick. I was comparing their ease of unintentionally use. I even said this in the analogy. If you want to say the analogy doesn't work because the two things I compared aren't exactly identical then no analogy ever works.

glitchless is dumb; just do any% no ems no cits early

It isn't needed yes, but the Eldin Bridge Warp point is fairly close to the Hidden Village, which is where you get stuff that I've long forgotten ever since that trade sequence was skipped. The nearest warp I can think of other than that would be the one next to Iza's. Eldin Bridge warp is probably slower though since that one requires 3 warps vs 1 warp to Iza's

58s faster to warp the bridge piece.

WITHOUT BRIDGE
-Gerudo Desert cannon landing to camp = 53s
-HC warp, wolf to HV = 2:17
-HC warp, Epona to Sky Book Statue = 2:18

53s+2:17 = 5:28


WITH BRIDGE
-Gerudo Desert cannon landing to Shadow Beast fight + bridge warp and back to camp = 3:00
-Eldin warp, wolf to HV = 1:00 (probably a bit faster with Epona)
-Eldin warp, wolf to Sky Book Statue = 30s

1min+3min+30s = 4:30
-----
5:28 VS 4:30 = 58s faster w/ bridge


No need to visit Iza at all so that warp location isn't unlocked in the first place

EDIT: Oh there's a sky book page right by Mesa too, so that would save maybe a minute too

You probably already know this, but I figured I would post it anyway just incase.

Japanese runners on nicovideo did tp glitchless runs quite a long time ago and 7:22:47 was never the wr. I think the current wr (I really don't keep track though) is 6:41:14 by Bane.

Edit: I'm not really sure what ruleset they used but it's probably similar to the oot glitchless rules.

I didn't know of this, thank you for notifying me. Is this info only viewable on nicovideo with an account? I'd love to hear their ruleset

Lol this is a little late but the TP glitchless time is no longer viewable (because nico only saves them for 1 week even if you have an account)

Yeah I went and checked and couldn't find anything. I tried to PM/send a friend request with a comment to Bane and ask him on Nico but he hasn't replied yet (same with Twitch PM).
