Notes

  • costs 70s to exit through Stallord's room to set 21:00
  • costs 64s to warp mc, enter palace, savewarp, and leave to set 00:00
  • If you want to end on saving Jovani, put docks poe after a savewarp from Auru poe and then end with ECT -> SCT -> Jovani
  • This city route is 22s faster than not-reverse route
  • 1s IRL and 26m IGT slower to ride across GBoH to FBF than to warp LH
  • Could skip 50R chest at GBoH poe by moving FBF2 and Cats to Night 2 and moving UZR/HFN to Night 1, but it makes Night 2 a little tighter (ending ETA 5:11) and it doesn't seem worth for a race for funsies
