---------------------
Houlihan Rupee Route:

This assumes you only do 2 YBAs: blue for megaroute and red for ganonpot

Houlihan (225) + Bandit Cave (340) + TT Pot x2 (10) + Mire Pot (1) + C-Shaped House (300) = 876
Flippers (500) + Sword Temper (10) + Bottle (100) + Red Pot (120) + Blue Pot (160) = 890

890 - 876 = 14 in Drops

- tree rupees take ~46 seconds longer to execute vs going straight to dma
- average of 50s to collect all Houlihan rupees and exit to Link's house
- 3.37s to walk out of Link's house after S+Q there
- by skipping tree rupees entirely, Houlihan only loses ~1s initially
- by skipping bombable hut, you save another ~19s (+1 bomb)
- potential quick rupee drop spots would be mini-moldorms in bandit cave + kikiskip cave, TT grasshoppers
- there are 2x5-rupee pots in Hera petting zoo you can grab before doing the clip (after the bomb grab) which cost ~5s, if you grab these, you need just 1 blue drop from an enemy without losing 15s and you're good
