Pre Route Info:

• Route assumes at least basic knowledge of DL9 and its mechanics and layout
• Tourney Skip :  
• Post Tourney Skip:  
  • You have to go back to get each champ (Not tenzing)
  • You still get magic drop regardless
• Fast Jade Race:  
  • Somewhat tight timing for the coffee boost 
  • Can replace Charm with Yusef 
    • Add best armor to Yusef and feed cooked food and race Jade normally
• Leaving the flock and going back will instantly finish all ongoing builds in the flock
  • Shops and Jelly coin count as leaving
• Going into your quests is faster than flying back to the flock
  • Quests vanish when you close the game
• Dialogue options matter in a few cases
• Average tree growth 2:00
