If we can find out what triggered the cateye shroom glitch and use it against Taro, we would save so much time. I think it's triggered by dying and reviving with a DM? After reviving I ate a Red Sting, Life, then the Cateye, I'll be trying this later on to see if I can replicate it. I think we can lower the time significantly, sub 6 hours as long as we stop taking 3hrs to even get to Jackson.

Also, I started streaming from the title screen, and watched all the cutscenes, but OBS started the vod right before I started my split. I also recall before starting the stream, steam said I had 43 minutes of total playtime on LID, even though the only "playing" I did was 10 days of login bonuses. I didn't remember how far in you needed to get into the tutorial before the login procked, so I ran around in the tutorial and killed a few enemies before hand, but towards the last few days I said F it and just selected my character and quit out as soon as possible. Clearly I still got all 10 days so keep in mind, alls that needs to be done is select character, just for future reference.

I think next run I will just use a 10-20f armor bp. I kept running around getting mats for 1* bp's when something like assault force body only needs cotton and takes a minute to R&D. Less mats, less time, and I used looted armor at the end anyway so may as well just do that instead.
