I can say after trying to do undead dragon solo runs for a while at one point, it is pretty much just the same as a safe 5k run. Really resetheavy, rng reliant, and really boring. co-op runs would be cool to see though.

Interesting finds! Might just pick up the game up for a while again atleast, actually finish a 5k run for once heh. Cant seem to get past 4.5k with the spawn rates being pretty ass. Also one big difference is that you can't save your jump and use it midair, gotta be careful with fall damage.

Not necessarily, respawning the dragon can be quite useful to reduce at least some rng.

I actually agree on the split of the categories, if this would be allowed in any way. After trying to get a 5000 distance run out for ages using a spawner kill and hoping for the best gun out of the lucky box, this would change it a bit too much to be considered the same category in my opinion.

Might actually be a interesting one to run, since no rules specify no dying i assume its fine?
