While I'm not sure how much help this will be here are my notes based off Xerian's 1:30:07 run and additional knowledge from the forum with some safety meds routed in for new runners. My current PB is a 1:35:37 with this route. http://pastebin.com/92XFCsyC I'm fairly confident in these notes except for
- Triggering the second phone call by dropping back into the hole is not confirmed to save time yet.
- The Final Jack fight as it is complete and total chaos.
You certainly can get the eye under his tail without having him climb up again but I have yet to figure out a way that works for me.
I'll write up a longer explanation for the route and how the triggers are known to work soon. Critiques are welcome.
Here's a longer guide explaining some of the triggers and a couple mechanics. This only takes you up to the the final Jack fight for now and I might expand on it later. http://pastebin.com/AfLvdBnp
EDIT: Added an order to the final jack fight based off this post by Rebecca13 https://www.speedrun.com/re7/thread/mp68g Turns out you just have to crouch. :|
EDIT2: Added longer explanations for the sh¤t speedrunners do.
Added my explanation guide that goes over a couple basic mechanics, explains the guest house triggers (to the best of my knowledge), and covers the boss fights up to the last Jack fight. It's not really finished but I found myself not working on it for too long so I figured I'd share. It's mostly become a FAQ at this point as I generally just add in things that I thought were common knowledge but get asked in the discord anyway. I'll probably come back and add the boat and mines to it later but I feel my bullet point notes cover it well enough.
To get the under tail eye aim to the middle of the leg next to it and shut through it to hit the eye works all the time
