No, the game must be closed between attempts anyway which would clear any offsets

The fastest way is a buffered scw but that can be really hard. The other way is an infinity scw but which is much easier but there is an added element of luck

This question has come up many times before and the answer is that emulators are still too inaccurate for this game to be accepted to the leaderboards in any way. Unlike older games on emulators that work almost identically to when played on console, there is too much variation in factors such as loads and other small things.

There is nothing stopping you running this game on emulators, we just won't be accepting those runs to the leaderboards

As I said in my previous post, glitches like Dead Link Inventory strip all control of Link besides being able to open the menu. This is also only possible using this korok ( ) which requires all runes, at which point this is completely useless, not to mention we can't move once off plateau and it's just completely useless.

And, the 'barrier' isn't a physical barrier, it is instead the border of the region of the map that has a coordinate check running every frame. It cannot be bypassed as it will be constantly checking his coordinates, although, as you said this may not be applicable in divine beasts.

Firstly, it's impossible to setup blss before/during any cutscenes since we are instantly stripped of control of Link the second we step out of the shrines and for the glider cutscene, Link needs to be touching the floor to activate the cutscene. There's also the point that the bomb Link is carrying is despawned during that cutscene and he is also taken out of the smuggling state.

Unfortunately all death glitches I can bring to mind render the game softlocked until Link's taken out of whichever state he was put in. Also, the 'barrier' as it has been come to be known is in fact the border of the region of the map with a coordinate check running every frame so you even if you go beyond this border, you will eventually be voided out.

I don't have any knowledge of any glitches that can be used to quickly warp into divine beasts from the start of the game besides moonjump wrong warp but using it across save files is banned. Another key point in the entire plat skip research process is trying to find a way to skip it without losing time over just doing plat normally, which these proposed theories would most certainly fail at if they were possible.

This is essentially just the any% route up to bombs and I highly doubt it'd be added, especially since multiple people have suggested this before.

However, we do have one category that does get the switch shirt, though it's not the only goal of the run:

https://www.speedrun.com/botw?h=Great_Plateau_100-DLC&x=rklqj4w2-p859dw7n.21gjnr81

'when you start the quest' is a very open and loose starting time, especially given there are many separate dlc quests you haven't specified.

There are leaderboards for just ToTS and the Final Trial on their own however: https://www.speedrun.com/botw/level/Trial_of_The_Sword https://www.speedrun.com/botw/level/The_Divine_Trial

There have been runs of this before actually. I can't find any route docs but the best time I can find is a 3:30:20

http://bombch.us/DX1a this is the current most up-to-date full celer route but its not the run world record uses and that route is still constantly changing. I'd recommend joining the discord for all 100% resources

Unfortunately this glitch doesn't have any uses speed-wise but I thought that someone reading this might be interested in this anyway. Basically, if you shoot backwards while collecting the gem, you get put in a weird state where you seem to control the projectile but the game also makes you take control of a random enemy. Funnily enough, in the chest room, you take control of the chest rather than the mini boss (though this isn't showcased in the video).

Controlling it and which room you want to enter is pretty finnicky and I haven't quite worked it out. Anyway, here's a demo

What sort of idea do you have for timing rules and this category is literally just plat + a long blss + a couple of wb's.

You can find them on the category extensions page. However, we don't host leaderboards for dumb arbitrary categories like bigger content creators may come up with

I have, its just something I missed and it's something I'd expect to be removed like a number of good features in the past so I was just voicing my concerns

I'm really surprised by how clean this new look is and I don't think I'd mind it as the none-beta version. My only issue is the apparent removal of being able to look at a leaderboard as it was at another date. It could just be forgotten or not yet implemented but I know lots of people (myself included) would be very unhappy if this feature really is removed completely.

Thanks for checking that!

Your run is definitely a 1:10.95 after I checked using somewes' timer. I used a different timer and that gave me 1:11 flat but I shall update your run accordingly

Some people have already run low% with their own defined rules. The run doesn't really adhere to the leaderboard's main rules but I think if enough people run it, show an interest in it and are convincing enough to get it added, it might end up on the boards.

However, 'low%' for this game could mean lots of things and this interpretation goes for minimum items so there will be more debate over whether it should be added if people do try to get it on the boards.

You can go into the run and then edit it so it's on switch. It'll need to be verified again but it won't take much time

What do you mean by 'minimum runes'. Obtaining a rune cannot be skipped and there are runeless runs out there both for any% and all dungeons ( |).

Secondly, this is a discussion better off on the extensions page and I'd recommend running it yourself if you want it added. Also, moonjump is allowed in all runs except it needs to be activated after starting a new run, the rules will not be changed to cater for a single category
