All Masks Glitchless

This is currently the optimal route.

Current world record, which uses this route

JP Wii VC is the optimal version for this category. Glitchless requires beating the game without using banned techniques, which are listed on the speedrun.com rules page.

Although glitchless categories do not allow many of the techniques listed on the sidebar, the movement techniques and general tips pages are still relevant and helpful.

There is also a full video tutorial by Zunar of Any% Glitchless, which focuses on beginner strategies, a lot of which are still relevant in this category.

Equips are notated as (e.g.)

  • bomb || zora || oca

Bomb, bombchu, and rupee counts and health are notated as [b, c, r, h] where relevant. See Common Terms and Abbreviations for other acronyms.

─── Second cycle ───

Must get Garo Mask before Night 1 and later reach the ranch on time for Aliens. Ideally, invert time sometime before Sonata, uninvert around the end of Goron Race, and stay uninverted for the remainder of the run, getting to Aliens just in time. Exact placement for these will be entirely dependent on your gameplay expectations and any mistakes you make. In-game time management is just as important as gameplay, as accounting for poorly managed in-game time by playing ISoT extra times or having to wait for Aliens can end up costing significant time.
