Asylum Glitch
2 years ago
Netherlands

I've been slowly getting back into DEVOUR speedrunning and wanted to get to know some of the new strategies!

One of the strategies that im unfamiliar with is on the Asylum map where you somehow lock in Molly I think in the bathroom but Im unsure. It's being used in this run https://www.speedrun.com/devour/run/ydw2wgxm (around 7:35)

I know how to use the stairs to get some height but Im unsure what to do when locking her in!

It might also be a good idea to make some kind of guide with all the glitches and strats that could be used for speedrunning the different maps!

Hey Kasper, there are some guides posted here on the leaderboard. They're posted under the "Guides" tab. The videos briefly go over the Molly trick. The videos also go over stair hoping and closet clipping.

I would like Flower to give an explanation on how exactly he does it because I know how to do it too and I've done it in coop Asylum Nightmare runs but to my knowledge there is no consistent way to do it. She almost always stops going after you once you get on the roof and doesn't chase you inside the bathroom.

Hey raiden The fact that Molly followed you once you were on the roof was partly a matter of luck When I first started using this glitch, I often electrocuted two mice and headed for the stairs But Molly would run away and waste a lot of time Now I usually head for the stairs after shocking three or four mice That way it won't take too long if you jump on the roof and Molly isn't chasing you she usually comes back to you pretty quickly (As I come from China, my English is not very good, so I use machine translation. Please forgive me if I don't understand anything.)

Just wanted to clarify in case runners in the future are curious. Basically when you get on top of the roof to trap her in the Bathroom, most of the time she will not trap herself in the Bathroom instantly. Instead, she will run back to the stairs to go to the second floor, she will go inside West Dorm, or she will run towards East Dorm. You can try to flick your UV light on her to get her aggro back on yourself, but you cannot see where she is and will have to guess based on sound, and even if you do hit her sometimes it does not work anyways. Instead, move back over to where you are on the roof above the staircase that goes down to the second floor. When Molly tries to go down those stairs, she will see you and then come back up to try to get you. Once that happens you will get a heartbeat so even though you cannot see her you will know when she is going for you. When the heartbeat starts just move back over to the Bathroom door. Repeat this process until you can tell by sound that she is inside the Bathroom. Hope this helps!

IMPORTANT - New rule added

There's been a new rule added to make submissions easier to verify. Please make sure that all future runs include the post-game stats screen (the pop-up that shows minion kills, death count, etc). Existing runs will not be touched, however future ones that don't uphold this rule will be rejected.
