TotK Any%

Pretty good run, but definitely not perfect. Fuse is the weakest part of the run by far but it also has the heaviest RNG as well so only losing 17 seconds isn't actually that bad. This is a run that I don't think I could beat without amiibo so that's a cool milestone to hit and I'm not sure if I feel like continuing to grind for sub 41 right now. It's definitely possible but that'll be the point where good scans are required.

I just finished totk yesterday and decided to look up a speed run. This absolutely blew me away 👏👏👏👏👏

[@itsallwrong89]

totk was a great experience, one of the few games i played in a while where i just ran around and did stuff for fun. but the fact you set the wr while having a full conversation is wildly impressive

[@Zachrzan]

watched the whole thing, great run! looking forward for that 40:XX

[@siroglethorpe311]

bro is legendary and deserves a lot more attention for having gotten the wr so much

[@SchnemakiLord2507]

You're right

[@normalchannel711]

Comgrats on the wr! I'm not even suprised because you always break the wr :)

[@kaiok0as]

I was just watching now his last atempt, awesome skills

[@riuukover]

sometimes it feels like he's the only one speedrunning this game with how many WRs he got

[@strawb4983]

Theres something amazing watching something done faster over and over again

[@wherethegravelsthin]

This was so awesome to watch live and I cannot believe my dumb Tumblr meme jokes made it into the wr video lmfao. Great job P5!

[@neojet280]

I like your shoelaces

[@wherethegravelsthin]

@@neojet280 So once upon a time, roughly eleven years ago, I was a thirteen year old in theatre summer camp (nerd) and I had these black combat boots (goth phase) with cool shoelaces, like they were patterned with stars in rainbow colors. So one day when another camper totally clocked me as a Tumblrina and said "I like your shoelaces", I actually thought she was honest to God complimenting my shoelaces and completely forgot to reply "Thanks I got them from the president" bc I was too busy thinking about how cool my shoelaces were. So, on that note, thanks! I got them from the president.

[@neojet280]

@@wherethegravelsthin now I like both your physical and theoretical shoelaces

[@CrowLady0_0]

@@wherethegravelsthin i had the opposite situation happen to me (my shoelaces were rainbow btw) i actually said the thing, which was not the correct thing to say in that situation which was really embarrassing. then, years later, the guy that complimented me found me on discord and went "i get it now, it means you're on tumblr" EXCUSE ME? i was mortified

[@giornogiomama3029]

Dw give it a couple of days he gon break again the wr

Still sad it wasn’t the run where chat was debating the marble question

[@EliteWizzerd946]

I thought Speedrunners voted on starting in the room of Awakening with 6:40 on the timer to avoid having to watch the long intro cutscene at the beginning. Why aren't you doing that? EDIT: Or was it 5:40? I don't remember.

[@zwumm3l]

You're not wrong. At first they did, because there werent any glitches for "skipping" the beginning, but now (as you can see) they discovered some glitches to make the beginning a bit quicker so they have to do the beginning section now

[@marioman118]

It was 6.40

[@Player5SR]

Like zwumm3l said the out of bounds clip at the start is the reason I don't skip it. The community voted on adding 6:40 as the offset to account for an average intro played out without glitches so while I could run with intro skip, the out of bounds movement saves a minute. Intro out of bounds was found like a week after the vote so I never really got to skip intro for any% runs.

[@Thomas15-b0g]

When fighting the Demon Dragon, I notice that you wait until after you take out the first set of eyeballs before fusing the lizalfos horn to the master sword, but wouldn't it be faster to simply fuse it immediately so it takes less time to destroy the first set of eyeballs?

[@petza7]

Obviously it’s faster the way he does it, but I’m wondering too?

[@markoadam6619]

iiirc the first set is only can be attacked by master sword or something like that

[@Player5SR]

The earliest I'm able to fuse is when I've dropped down onto Demon Dragon next to the first eyeball. The difference between doing 3 and 4 slashes is very small time wise so the time it would take to drop and fuse would probably even out with waiting to fuse while on a wing. I'm also trying to drop down to Zelda at a specific time so that her position lines up and I can dive all the way to the 3rd eyeball so getting there earlier isn't necessarily better (if it put me too far away that would mess up the cycle). It's also kind of awkward trying to drop and fuse while standing on the dragon since he moves around so much.

[@Thomas15-b0g]

👍

[@starclips3144]

Nice

[@fireballgoob8381]

I literally just watched the botw speed run that you did

[@manwiththeafro]

Let’s go chat

[@unknownspectre]

With the current starts, how low do you think the record can go?

[@Player5SR]

Probably somewhere between a mid 40:XX and 41:00. My sum of best is roughly a 40:30 so playing within 30 seconds of that would be pretty difficult but not impossible.

[@hoapacharm1928]

Amazing!

[@Jaycomma]

[@R4y1hm]

Can you teach us the main glitches like zuggling and that bow thing how u fly please

[@evildosess]

U habe a video on a item dup glitch?

[@MisterGrasshopper]

Can you upload a tutorial of how to do all the glitches and routes?

[@Golter.]

Was topaz used instead of ruby because of amibo RNG or is it better? And why was it fused to sword, just for fun or any practical reason?

[@Player5SR]

I use the topaz sword to shock Link in the Fuse shrine which sets up the glitch that allows me to fly across the map (arrow smuggle). The shock method is a fair bit faster than zuggle overload, but the only shock source available on the Great Sky Island is the topaz which is RNG.

[@ShirakoriMio]

Girls!

[@感嘆符-f2c]

[@Tabuu-yt]

Do you think people will be hitting sub 40 in the next week?

[@zXd12]

not unless a whole minute of time save is found this weekend. His sum of best is in the 40:2X, sub 40 isn't possible with the current route.

[@sp9017]

Sub 40 by the end of 2024

[@gothicpixelchick2]

Is there something quicker with the Russian version? Is it not updated so theres glitches that makes speedrunning faster?

[@an_egg_guy]

There's not a separate Russian version, it's just changing the language in the system settings. The language has a few less textboxes, which makes it just barely faster than English.

[@gothicpixelchick2]

​@@an_egg_guy thank you, good to know!

[@an_egg_guy]

@@gothicpixelchick2 No problem! Good luck if you're getting into speedrunning!

[@imos_theos]

The inventory drops were not kind great run though

[@quentinmckinley2083]

what does the topaz rod do?

[@Player5SR]

I set up a glitch called Arrow Smuggle by shocking Link (the shock method is faster than previous methods). It's the thing that lets me fly through the air and clip through ceilings.

[@hyejinahn6174]

Pls do current patch any percent

[@bastienmassion299]

What does any% casino means ?

[@Player5SR]

I'm scanning amiibo to get a topaz which only has a 13% chance to drop each time I scan. So it's a joke that the route is like gambling since it's pretty common to reset to bad RNG. There are more consistent routes like no amiibo but they're not as fast.

[@CItR_]

Do It in less than 40 mins

Zelda TOTK is my first Zelda and I can’t understand what’s going on but I don’t see what’s really impressive here. It seems like minimal skill and just patterns combined with glitches mixed with luck. It’s very different from other speedruns.

Not yet afaik. I'm not sure what the current state of TAS tools is for switch but from what I remember it wasn't ready for full game runs. There was a Best Theoretical Time project that was started really early but it fizzled out.

[@renatop3]

Why is topaz better than rubys?

[@Player5SR]

Topaz allows for a faster arrow smuggle setup. In the Fuse shrine right after opening the locked door I shock myself to instantly get the bow desync instead of having to duplicate enough weapons to overload the game which takes ~10-15 seconds longer.

[@renatop3]
