Well as Deln has already somewhat started, the rules can be outlined more clearly through speedrun.com than ZSR so there's no more uncertainty on it. Rather than relying on word of mouth for some things.
Quick aside. "A setup seems out of the question, because Cranson was trying to make a setup for early hookshot last night, and that didn't turn out too well." I actually found a setup that seems to have about a 50% chance of working, which is pretty viable in a run, considering respawning the key is easy and it saves so much time. But if failing it had a chance of crashing the game, I definitely wouldn't call it viable anymore, lol.
Anyway, sorry about topic change. Carry on.
Just a random thought on Heart piece duplication: How about we say: Heart Piece duplication is also allowed, BUT you have to pick up each individual HeartPiece at some point in the run (who would want to dupe them then anyways?)
Just a question, in some versions of the game (maybe only LA OG?), like the German and the French versions, when one quick kills the Genie in D2, it duplicates itself and, therefore, you get 2 full hearts killing it, and then you can get more than the max amount of hearts.
Is that dupe too?
If so, would runs with this glitch get banned?
Those are duplications (and thus shouldn't be allowed), and you would still need to pick up all the heart pieces anyways. (Rules say get "all heart pieces"). I also forget what happens if you go over maximum heart containers, but I remember it not being good.
Looking to other Zelda games, "No major glitches" means no duplicating, but allows for breaks in trading sequences. For example: OoT 100% (no major glitches [the most common 100% category for the game])- you cannot duplicate ANYTHING. You CANNOT duplicate hearts, heart pieces, heart containers- you also CANNOT duplicate skultulas and keep in mind those are "a means to an end."
This is pretty standard for a no major glitches category.
NOW as far as bomb/event triggers, in general, go... I personally have no input. It seems like a "major glitch" to me. However, I don't know enough about the programming/behind the scenes stuff to have an educated opinion
I disagree. Superjumps are very similar to bomb hovers. So long as you don't use it to go oob.
So it looks like this topic was discussed thoroughly, and a vote is in progress / finishing up. Locking this thread.
