JOIN ME ON WWW.twitch.tv/feinlife for my speed run attempt - hardmode any% (or 100% depending on what doomsday declares as a 100% clear SPECIFICALLY) Xion!

 

Starting at 9:30 P.M

It's not up to me, but I already told you "every superboss".

So is that the only criteria? and what is defined as a super boss?

There's no ingame tracking for it, so it can be defined as whatever is agreed upon.  Personally, I don't see the point of such a category since you already have to beat the biggest bosses for Xion%.

Can Bowser and peach both learn gene whirl?

actually I got to shit first.. and then..

SPEEDRUN!

Everyone except Mario can learn Geno Whirl, if you do it right.

Are there any stars after the volcano?

Oh no! :inglip:

Looking at the video, it apparently happened about half an hour after you took a break... did it say anything about what happened?

I had to bring my gf to work.. when I came back it just said my snes9x crashed... 

 

8 HR smithy is possible but tight. If anything it was another good practice run.

Meteor on peach is bad. Darkstar is op.

Still need Ultima on 7 for future run though.

Peach needs to learn Geno whirl as well.

Need an optimal leveling route figured out. 

Well, that's unfortunate.  I haven't seen SNES9x crash like that before, so I can't really help :(

Why is Meteor on Peach bad?  The tight timing?

Bowser needs Geno whirl

Geno needs something cheaper than peach beam for skill swap.

Geno needs a weapon for post exor

Need to route in item Collector properly

It's because of the fp needed to activate. I found soooooooooo many situations before I had 45 fp (which I didn't get to till post exor) where I would struggle to keep buffs, fp maxed, and people alive while using Meteor. The timing wasn't too bad but it's definitely less forgiving than dark star IMO

I feel pre exor was almost optimized. I could have maybe saved 30 more minutes to an hour (I know that sounds like a lot, but there's so much room for error i.e dying etc.)

Post exor needs to be routed better and I need a bucket to piss in because I had like 10 piss breaks. lol 

I'm going to continue playing this file and try an optimize everything to the lion fight. I can't imagine how difficult Xion is going to be after 20+ hours of playing..
