Magicless Any% NG+ Guide

This category is actually really cool so i thought i would give this guide to whoever wants to try it out. c: *I'm posting this here because I cant post on the guides section for some reason.

First of all, the route for this category is somewhat similar to the Any% NG+ route, the majority of minor skips can be done with ALJ (Apollo's Long Jump) or Apollo's High Jump. Examples (Satvara):

  • Follow Any% NG+ route (Skip medusa's gaze while swimming) until Artemis.

  • Blade of Artemis skip (Satvara):

  • CoA saw room blades only skip (AKheon):

  • *I don't doubt the possibility to backtrack CoA like in Any% NG+ but using blades only, however no one managed to do that so far...

  • You can perform any sort of high jump with the blades to get on top of the big rolling wheel at pandora's rings to reach the ladder.

  • It's possible to skip the fight after the blackout glitch by dashing and clipping through the wall right next to the archers into the chests room (Satvara):

  • Upgrade blades to lv.3 for more damage against enemies but don't upgrade any further, lv.3 blades are necessary to skip krato's death into hell cutscene later on. If you upgrade them to lv.4 you can perform a bunch of skips that require lv.4 blades and do more damage saving some time, but it still slightly faster to keep blades lv.3 and skip the 3 and a half minute cutscene later on.

  • Complete CoP normally using the Any% NG+ swimming out of bounds skips.

  • It's possible to skip CoH's labyrinth and the rooftops later on with any sort of high jump with the blades.

  • Souls of Hades skip (Satvara):

  • The fastest way to get through CoM with blades lv.3 is to just get aphrodite's collar (The Hard Game):

  • Architect's Tomb blades only skip (AKheon):

  • Once you reach the underworld, upgrade blades to lv.4 for more damage, save lv.5 for the gravedigger cutscene skip. Otherwise, you can upgrade to lv.5 right away but its slightly slower because you will not be able to skip the gravedigger cutscene.

And that's it, good luck! c: Also, here is a run of mine performing this route:
