- HYPER LIGHT DRIFTER | 99% NMG ROUTE WITH GLITCH'S
- Banging together a super duuuuuper basic glitched route for HLD. Not editing any bit counts so ignore those. I will have [GTS] (Glitched Time Save) and [PGTS] (Potential Glitched Time Save) in areas where you'd save time with glitches. Also [NGTS] where there's a spot you could save time with glitches but you would miss something and an explanation why.
- There is some talk it might be faster to do first loop of East first (i.e. up to red door), go buy chain dash, and do almost all of north to come back to east with phantom slash and maybe grenades (because grenades DESTROY east way more than north) however this would require cheesing fire maze with health packs which while possible (because you can skip on the way back) is kinda some complete bullshit. This however would allow us to complete east in 1 go as we'll have rifle for bit/key south of warp and phantom to break into white cloak. You can grab white cloak and escape the room without going in bounds, so optimal route would probably be finish the north loop of east, then warp to town to grab the cloak.
- I will proceed with this route as if there's no major route change.
- --
- (If I say something like 'Head West', it doesn't mean Warp. I specify when to Warp to a location)
- Begin the game
- Collect the Pistol (Gun 1/6)
- [GTS] Monolith Room Early for 2 bits and a key (reminder i have a consistent setup as jank as it is)
- Collect the Map
- Activate Town Warp
- Head North out of Town, Collect 2 Bits (2/185)
- Continue North, In Hiker Room Collect Monolith (1/16) and 2 Bits (4/185)
- [GTS] Someone timed this out earlier, it IS faster to not get the bit off to the left and phantom slash up there when we come back for dark room. If you get it first try, it's tricky.
- Continue North Past Village Room
- Continue Through Cliffs, Head to Sad Bird Cave
- In Sad Bird Cave, Collect 1 Monolith (2/16) and 2 Bits (6/185)
- [GTS] It's possible to do a hyper fall on the cliff face and clip out of bounds so you can dash straight to the monolith. GL getting this consistent

- Continue to Cave Room, Collect 2 Bits (10/185) and 1 Key (1/16)
- Continue to Next Room, Collect 2 Bits in Flag Room (12/185) Consistent Setup for enemy bit: https://clips.twitch.tv/PiliableHealthyCaterpillarPrimeMe
- [NGTS] You HAVE to do the pre-warp arena. It's substantially faster to do the arena now than it would be to continue walking north to bird room module after doing dark room. If you don't do the arena, coming back later and trying to go south will raise the walls but with no arena to fight, trigger is way too far in to potentially get out of bounds.
- Continue North Past Arena, Activate Warp
- Warp Back to Town
- 3 Whole bits
- Buy Chain Dash (Costs 3, 0 left)
- (In a Full 100% Run, now is when you would collect the Dash Shop Bit and Outfit)

- Collect 2 Bits (14/185) and Continue to the Next Room
- Collect 2 Bits (16/185) and Continue to the Next Room
- [PGTS] You can collect 1 and then zip to the other side if route somehow has you with phantom slash at this point

- [PTGS] Again, if you somehow have phantom slash, faster to zip to the other side of this room, grab that bit, then backtrack for the module.
- Activate Module (2/32) and Head Up the Elevator
- After Elevator, Head West, Collect Hand Bit (18/185)
- Activate East Warp
- [PGTS] Routing option if you somehow have Phantom at this point, it's possible to zip OOB into either red door or the 3 module door.
- [PGTS] It's also possible to zip out of bounds and walk up above and lower the walls without doing north loop. I've seen it done (and idk where the clip would be now) but never done it myself.
- Continue East, Head Down Elevator
- Fight Plants, Head through North Pink Door
- Directly After Pink Door, Head East for Hidden Bit (19/185)

- Complete Dash Challenge, Collect Bit (23/185) Faster strat for exiting dash challenge: https://clips.twitch.tv/GoldenEncouragingDolphinChocolateRain

- Activate the Switch to Lower the Barricade
- Enter the Left Door and Use the Elevator

Then dash 8 o'clock, 10 o'clock, 9 o'clock and you'll barely make it onto the platform. Once you do it once it'll make sense and you'll get it every time.

- Use Mini-Warp and Head South Over the Invisible Path
- Collect Hidden Bit to the West (58/185) (Another good grenade place) Note, the walls will come back up if enemies reenter the arena, but if you chain dash after last kill you'll usually make it out.
- Leave the Room through the East Exit
- Get Through the Room, Use Elevator
- Leave the Room through the East Exit

- [GTS] You can skip this arena, clip out of bounds using the door and go to the right. The routes specific but some people do this in any% so there should be a clip somewhere. You can break the box for the bit with your pistol (bullet hitbox is enormous when it hits something) and collect it out of bounds, then just go to the loading zone.

- Fight the Hand Arena, Collect Bit (66/185) and Module (12/32)

- [GTS] You are not intended to beat soccer kid so anytime you do it is a glitch. That's why the category is 99% NMG Kappa
- If you struggle with sky factory dashes, optional to buy Dash Reflect upgrade
- More upgrades are also optional, but currently there's no strats for them besides reflect slash, but it's not worth the time to grab unless you're there anyway.

- CDC Grenade Strat https://clips.twitch.tv/PopularPuzzledMuleCoolCat
- Setup explanation: If you look at the crystals closely the have 2 different patterns forming stripes. Dash down second stripe from far right, then dash left into room. Throw grenade down (exact angle isn't too specific, aim for middle of the wall), immediately shotgun plink upwards (toward center of the room), throw a grenade toward center of the room, and usually there will be a bit of cleanup based on enemy movement RNG, but it's manageable.
