New Catergory: Pacifist%
6 years ago

This a low%

RULES:

Beat the game with as few of the following as possible:

  • Kills (Mario or Cappy killing something that is considered a living creature)

  • Manipulation into suicide (Mario guiding living entities like into death, or Mario dropping an entity into something that kills them; like the T-Rex chase in Metro Kingdom)

-Any Boss Fight Counts as a kill after they disappear

MORE INFO ON RULES:

RULE 1: Basically you can't directly kill anything that is a living creature.

RULE 2: When you decapture an enemy and it disappears, it counts as killing it. A strategey to this is entering something that takes you to/out of a room before it despawns.

RULE 3: This is a more complicated one, bullets bills and bonzai bills are excluded from the rule because they follow you no matter what and will always explode no matter if you lure or not.

RULE 4: The Bowser Fights do not count

Rule 2 explanation correction: It counts if the creature WOULD despawn, regardless of whether you actually wait for that to happen. Recapturing the same creature however doesn't add another point since you're just leaving the same creature behind again

Letting something despawn should not count as a kill. Whenever something dies, it drops a coin. There are very few exceptions. Nothing drops a coin when it despawns, so they shouldn’t count as kills.

That’s actually a good rule in general. If you make it drop a coin, you killed it.

So boss kills don't count?

They would have to not count because you can't avoid most of the bosses.

That's not a reason, low% categories can have a non-zero score

Boss kills drop coins, I don’t know what you’re talking about Iwer.

Victoria, Australia

Mecha wiggler doesn’t drop coins right?

Germany

Boss hurts drop coins, kills don't... or do they?

Kills don't, only hurts on broodals drop coins except mechabroodal.

Updated - Boss Rule Added

Kentucky, USA

Only required bosses are allowed to be killed. But you don't really kill them because you have to refights of them acting as if they were still alive.

Georgia, USA

Im pretty sure that at least sand, lake, wooded, lost (Theres a glitch where you can skip losing Cappy) and luncheon are possible.

Germany

You only have to trigger it, it won't die

U.S. Minor Outlying Islands

Is the Ruined Boss considered a kill if it's there after you complete it and go on into the next kingdom as well as after bowser is defeated on the moon?
