Former WR Glitchless Speedrun, any% solo - Divinity Original sin 2 Definitive Edition [

[@Worldlyy]

Hey everyone! This video is quite old but its gotten a lot of traction. Would you want to see a New Glitchless Run? Let me know! either comment/sub here or head over to my twitch and drop a follow :) and hit that like button of course. Currently doing ANY% runs but that could change!

[@andrewwells7698]

Hell yeah man! This is one of my favorite games of all time and I love seeing people smash the fuck out of it! I would love to see a run where you don't use the squishing people technique, but I know that's the fastest way

[@jamesstokes8469]

[@bdarecords_]

For the first time in 7 hours as in for the first time in only 7 hours or did you spend 7 hours in your first playthrough? That's not much. You probably skipped a lot. You could/should spend around 20 hours in Act 1. A bit less if you want to go through faster or even more if you really explore everything.

That's because most of the time, unless it is their first run of the day, they just failed a run and are starting a new one.

[@JewTube001]

yeah its because they fail most runs. so generally their chance of failure is higher than not. it looks easy because we only watch their successful runs

Watching speedruns for the first time of games I love is always a treat, idk why I've never sought one out before but this is fucking wild lol. Luring the teleport croc over is so smart. And you're just so dang efficient. Triple kill with the deathfog at the end of act 1, wow. The heavy backpack abuse I have seen before so that's not new but still fun to watch lol. And what was that at the end of act 1 fight, I guess since you didn't go through the vault amadia gives you bless? I did not know that I always did the vault, neat. 11:05 Did you really tp a book to you so you didn't have to walk, I love speedrunners lol. How are you jumping with one teleport pyramid wtf lol. And then you kill someone with it LOL. This act two pathing is crazy you jump across to the fucking blood isle or whatever it's called, wild. And then act two is just done. ??? I blinked and missed act 3, whoops. This teleporter jumping is crazy, I gotta learn how to do this lol. Sorry for my ridiculous comment, this was just such a ridiculous watch and there was always something to comment on. Very impressive, fun watch. GGWP!

[@dustinlacook4599]

How did you get the red pyramid from the boat without going into the the hatch where the gheists are? Did I miss this part, or does it automatically appear in your inventory after the Dallis fight?

[@Worldlyy]

You guess it, it automatically appears in your inventory in act 2. But the gheists are worth a lot of exp so I don't recommend skipping them in a normal playthrough 🙃

[@ingolf82]

is the god placement (Amadia) the only reason you play an undead in every speed run or is it the immunity to death fog?

[@Worldlyy]

In recent speedruns we use undead lizard for a few reasons. But the main reason for using undead is deathfog, and play dead in order to kill Alexander faster at the end of act 1.

So at the final battle, how could Lucian fight with you? Wasn't he supposed to be against player? Because when I played this, I had to fight Braccus as well as Lucian.

[@KnownAsScornic]

How is moving the teleporter pyramid across the map not a glitch?

[@Worldlyy]

Moving objects is 100% an intended mechanic, as well as the use of pyramids to teleport. I understand that some people are not satisfied with the current glitchless, so I'll likely do one soon that bans the use of pyramids/deathfog/ telekenesis.

[@KnownAsScornic]

@@Worldlyy the any% run is amazing, so please don't take my confusion as a negative thing. But the way you catch the pyramid then throw it extremely far away just seems like a glitch. With this game it's very hard to draw a line between glitch and cheesing valid mechanics, so I'm just wondering if there's any official consensus on how to determine what is or isn't a glitch. I have to admit, after finishing my first playthrough in just over 100 hours, when looking up speed runs i didn't expect the glitchless category to be under a couple hours.

[@Worldlyy]

Yeah, because telekenesis is something that the developers created with proper scaling based on the skill itself + strength, there is not glitch in that. I checked with the moderators and because there are actually objects that are out of bounds in the game that can only be grabbed with telekenises, so placing the pyramid out of bounds is not against the rules (in act 2 for example) as long as we don't put fane out of bounds it's not considered a glitch.

[@frankdaegas5064]

​@@Worldlyy Telekinesis cube throwing from the ground is a potential glitch. When throwing a far-away object further away with... 0 tele and 10 strength => your character stands at 02m and can throw it 10m further using strength. 0 tele and 40 strength => your character stands at 02m and can throw it 30m further using strength. 5 tele and 10 strength => your character stands at 20m and can throw it 20m further using telekinesis + telekinesis. your character stands at 20m and can throw it 30m further using telekinesis + strength. Thus telekinesis can replace strength for determining how far an object can be thrown. This is counter to what you would expect from the tele tooltip (i.e. to be able to move objects as long as they are within Xm range). In fact, 5 tele is so broken that I've used it to enter Arx-City from the Arx-Harbor with 10 strength.

[@Worldlyy]

It seems like you're confusing exploit with glitch. Using DF barrels is an exploit, using pyramids instead of walking is an exploit, using telekenesis to drop heavy bags on your enemies is an exploit, it may not have been the intended purpose, but it does not go against the rules of the game. Maybe I am misunderstanding you, but you're free to join the speedrun discord if you wish to discuss it with the mods, I was told that this was okay.

You just put objects in the backpack then move it across people's hitboxes, having telekenises allows you to move objects no matter how heavy it is

[@youham7066]

a bag full of Nokia 3310 :D

[@saassas5879]

@@isstevetaken7722 in case you’re still interested 5 months later lol Objects do damage proportional to their weight when you hit someone with them via telekinesis. However, the object that you’re moving also takes damage from doing this as an attempt by the developers to balance the mechanic. Using a backpack gets around this balance, as they don’t have a health bar, meaning they can’t take damage and break. So, put a lot of heavy shit in a backpack (or a chest with no health bar), and start tossing it around to do insane amounts of damage.

[@GastNdorf]

I know it’s meant to be glitchless and the run is great and a good source of inspiration to make honor mode effortless but… those pyramid throws to get to Bloodmoon Island or Arx…. I don’t know if you can consider this legit, you’re not supposed to get this far off the coast on foot, and most of the area around where you put it is red. That’s even more blatant in Arx, where the character is going around underwater, trying to reach a land he’s supposed to be able to go instead of being off limit, which we don’t see in video because the camera is on the pyramid. For Bloodmoon Island I guess it’s not so bad you just have to go around a little bit to teleport from the dock, would cost a minute or two. Arx though I have no clue how to enter fast without having to fight the voidwoken :/

[@Worldlyy]

We debaited this run for a while a few months back. The conclusion we came to is that because Larian has placed objects out of bounds that we can't travel to but telekenesis is 100% needed to get, so, as long as any objects placed out of bounds are not done so using any glitch and only by the characters ability, as well as the character never leaving the bounding areas himself, as dictated by the white outlines on the map/minimap, these are not bugs or glitches. so while I 100% agree that it doesn't look "legit", it is in fact legit. only using the parts of the game that devs intended, weather it is in the direction they intended or not is not relevant. as for the "blatant" bit of arx. My character never goes in the water and stays within the bounds as dictated by the map, so I'm not sure what you're referring to. This is also the conclusion we came to as a speedrun community. The next step in making it seem more of a playthrough would be making it a restricted run where some things like bag and pyramids can't be used.

I'm playing it on ps5 right now. I got a barrel of death fog using a barrel glitch but it took me like an hour. I'm pretty sure the things you're doing would be impossible. I'll need to try your backpack of death trick. I think they patched all the stuff like that though. You can't move anything more than a couple hexes.

[@Worldlyy]

@@johnnymetonymic well I don't have a ps5 but I'm fairly certain larian wouldn't patch the backpack thing. There are obviously a few things you can't do with the pyramids, and according to some other users the act 4 out of bounds is not possible. But every other trick has been done on PS4.

[@Hellnation13]

[@Worldlyy]

Glitchless is a category that we as a speed run community went over with a fine tooth comb. The main thing we tried to find was if placing an object out of bounds is considered an exploit. After finding multiple chests that were only reachable with a high level of telekinesis we decided that placing them out of bounds ourselves was fine as long as the character themselves did not leave the bounding area as noted by the white outlines on the map and minimap.
