- #### Information:
- This route is a more advanced version of 100% that implements Grove 2 Skip (G2S) and faster D/N cycles. It is intended for [NA Wii 1.0](https://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/tp/knowledge/version-differences#na-wii-10) only. While PAL and JP versions will work, you will have to clear Cave of Ordeals without floor skips.
- - Coro TD (Text Displacement) is not required for this route, progression and rupee routing is based around Telma TD instead.
- - While there exists a Coro TD route that is slightly faster, it is not yet considered RTA-friendly.
- *****
- Runs should start with a blank file in slots 1, 2, and 3.
- Because this run spans over 7 hours at top-level, practicing and preparation is highly recommended. Also do note the (unskippable) [cutscene](https://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/tp/knowledge/timings#cutscene-times) breaks.

- ## Addenda
- ###Alternative Routes:
- It is worth noting there are some slightly faster alternatives to this route but generally aren't considered worth or haven't been properly routed. These include:
- - Coro Text Displacement (saves approximately 20-25 seconds)
- - King Bulblin 1 Trigger Skip (also saves 20 seconds)
- - Using Ooccoo to leave Lakebed, then doing a precise moonboots bomb boost in Goron Mines (overall saves 5s)
- ###Day-Night Cycles
- Relative difficulty of each day-night cycle:
- - Post MDH: has a few minutes of leniency, but costs time to fail because of the Poes at the end.
- - Post AG / Pre-SPR: Quite short. Not tight on time at all.
- - Post ToT: The toughest day-night cycle in the route. It is very tight and has an estimated 30 seconds of leniency.
- - Post Cave: fairly lenient and also a good opportunity to grab anything missed, especially Poes.
- Some considerations for the Post-ToT D/N cycle:
- - The Snowpeak backup 100R will cost some D/N time as it also passes in the Snowpeak connection cave.
- - Kakariko Gorge: If you forgot to place Epona, warp Kakariko Village to call her and ride her to Gorge.
- - Poes that can be skipped and easily returned to later include the Kakariko Gorge Poe and the Connection Cave Poe.
- - If you miss both the Gorge HPs and Poe, a good time to return is after Cave of Ordeals to grab them in one trip.
- ###Other Notes:
- - There are various backup rupees. See [GCN 100% addenda](https://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/tp/route/100#addenda) for a full list, most of which also apply in this route too.
