This is the only way I'm playing OOT now. Good shit.

Edit: I lied. After playing through the route I've dubbed it too difficult for my current OOT skills.

[Pokey]

Good Luck

[Kazooie]

Good luck with this run! I really look forward to see this done!
And my first post on this forum.

-get ground jump woth pot+dodongo method (chu bomb flower is too risky) (7 chus)

Fast and easy Dodongo's Cavern Ground Jump

Practise this. I can do this pretty much 100% of the time on Gamecube, and it should be even easier on N64 because the controller is more button-mash-friendly. Not that this trick requires button mashing - it's easier than it looks.

That's slow, lol. Clever though.

Updated the route slightly.  I practiced the water temple boss key skip a lot and I have decoded I will use it in my run.  Also after jabu insyead of going from lake hylia to castle I decided to go through ZR because I can make it to the castle before night much more consistently that way.  Bottle dupe is also gone.

Theres still 2 things I'm not happy about in the route.  1 - getting the fish before jabu costs a full minute when using ruto on the blue switch costs no time at all but the throw has to be so precise to get ruto to the ledge.  2 - going from deku to fire temple I was planning on using a hoverslide into darunias room early to get to the crater from there which would save about a minute but like #1 I just can't get it consistently enough.  I'll practice hoverslide more later but I'm sure I wont be able to get ruto to that ledge

[Acryte]

I'm sure we can develop some strategies to ease your pain. Just needs some practice and repeatable steps.

[ZFG]

Ok I can finally get the hoverslide to darunias room consistently so I'll be doing it in the run, however if I screw it up even once I'll just go up DM to DMC because the time saves becomes significantly less.  I'll practice the ruto throw some more, if I can get that consistently then I'll be very happy with this route

-pokey forest escape

Pokey has a glitch named after him o_o

[Pokey]

yay :-)

[ZFG]

Getting better at the ruto throw.  Still not consistent enough for an SS but I'm getting there.

[Lexkeeta]

this'll be badass.

but what does NMS stand for?

[Jiano]

this'll be badass.

but what does NMS stand for?

No Major Skips.

I played through the route this week. This run is ridiculously hard and it'll indeed be badass when it's done.

[Pokey]

Please don't drop the run ZFG
